Philippe Jaroussky . Sérénade andalouse by J. Massenet.

[78fufluns]

This piece is pure beauty, even birds realized ;) However there are 164 persons with taste and 5 that don't even believe birds' opinion! Maravilloso Jaroussky, con esta voz de terciopelo y cargada de sensualidad quién puede resistirse a su charm! Bravoooo! Thanks Jana for the upload.

This piece also occurs instrumentally (as the "Andalouse") in the ballet music from the opera "Le Cid."

I love this duet between Philippe Jarrousky & The Birds.

Excellent......

[MrPsychopompos]

Esos músicos franceses del XIX cultivaron con gusto el género habanera ("havanaise"): Massenet, Bizet, Chausson, Saint Saëns, Ravel... También usaron mucho la jota aragonesa en sus composiciones de inspiración española, como hiciera el gran Chabrier, o Lizst en su "Années de pélerinage."

Gorgeous to look at, gorgeous to hear....with a technique to die for. GO, PHILIPPE, GO......

[naditales]

bravo!!!! Voz de angeles....

[Creissels]

The birds add an extra element to this dreamlike performance. PJ's voice is ravishing.

[toisabella]

why are there birds who sing along?

thanks much for posting this!

[JaRoWi1647]

This concert was "open air "! :-)

[toisabella]

thanks for the info, Jana. so then, this is Jaroussky's voice without any "room" sound..no reverb, nothing at all!? well, that makes this recording all the more stunning.

[cuicuimusic]

really this recital had wonderful pieces in it !

[MariadeBsAs]

Sorry...I was so overwhelmed by the beauty that I wrote wrong the tenses...I meant that if it would be longer I wouldn't have survived because I was out of breath!! Thank you again, Jana...

[SOPHIEWALLON]

Bon, les amis,: il, faut être fou amoureux pour chanter ainsi..!

[JaRoWi1647]

Il est amoureux de sa musique - c'est tout. Devrait être assez pour nous.

[SOPHIEWALLON]

Certes, cela ne peut que nous suffir, mais il n'empêche ! Une telle émotion n'est, à mon avis, possible que si l'on RESSENT (to feel) de l'amour; in abstract, it's impossible !Non, on n'est pas amoureux de notes et de partitions comme on peut l'être de quelqu'un. D'ailleurs, Philippe a beaucoup progressé en intensité émotionnelle: il a pris beaucoup de maturité.A nous, il nous fait cadeau de son interprétation issue de ses émotions: et ses émotions sont de plus en plus belles !

[JaRoWi1647]

OMG! ( for "O Morte Gradita" this time) - I FEEL it what do you think , don´t worry! And I agree. Unfortunately, I can not so good French like you and the internet- translation is too poor to express all my FEELINGS in this case .

[SOPHIEWALLON]

Ach mein Got !!! Jana !!! It's WONDERFULL !!!Did you assist at this concert ? Are pictures yours ? I'd like to be at the post of Jérôme Ducros, I'd like to be just a mirror in front of which reflects Philippe, a sun ray undulating whith his voice! Philippe, you're better and better!Hearing your voice, tomorrow's impossible !Many thanks, Jana !

[MariadeBsAs]

Thanks!! What incredible beauty! If it had been longer than 3:50 I´d probably didn't survive such out of breathing...But you know, Jana, that this kind of death doesn't fright me...OMG!! (It´s for O Morte Gradita, instead of Oh My God...)

[NoteSensible]

So sad and nostalgic !

[Wiaceslaff]

Perfectly!

[Lullamy69]
