LA DI DONATO CANTA COL CUORE....TRASMETTE UNA GIOIA INCREDIBILE!

[maccwosser]

I get the impressio Joyce wants to sing adisco version of this!

[Njamh]

She's great!!!!

[suzanneetmoi]

Never heard anyone say a bad word about Ms.D iDonato, so I can't imagine why the negative comment....

[ThePinecloud]

why do you postsomething that takes over a half minute before I can hear any voice?

[fantasticoperastar]

I can say from meeting her, she is the furthest thing from a "bitch". Absolutely inspiring and gracious!

[thecelticspirit]

Awesome. I've been listening to several Dopo Notte on YT, and none of them drew my attention as this video did. Eventhough I have listened to Joyce singing this aria before, she never truly hit me. Now she did :) I'm really looking forward to hearing her in January. Not Handel, but should be pretty interesting all the same ^^ I love this woman. Thanx for the vid, Gudrun!

[wedemeyerr]

beautiful woman...!!!

[seapoeg]

indeed... her musicality, tone, technique, acting skills, appearance etc. form together a really beautiful person- inside and outside, perfect harmony

[cantanteporsiempre]

why does everybody says she´s such a bitch?

[jannevellamo]

Handelian operas are typically powerful, energetic and intense, thus they sound best when performed by a singer with a like character. I suppose many find it offensive for women to express any character at all, let alone that of a Handelian hero. Personally, I would love to hear her sing this in my shower. Preferably, for ever.

Interesting to hear a very different interpretation with more than usual ornamentation, even with the 20th-century-style voice.

[rikarman1]

Bravo! Superb! A wonderfully talented lady!

[AminaBellini]

she is GREAT!!!

[leoperarm]

Beautiful lady! and what a voice!

[MaciasEnglish]

She is gorgeous!

[guiradobrasil]

thanks Gudrun. Just one word: I envy you so much :o). Just kidding! I do thank you for always sharing this wonderful baroque performances with those who cannot be there, it''s really kind of you.

[actionsrlouder]

wow... sounds just flows out of her mouth.

[altodivo]

I was there...it was exceptional!

[Gudrun74]

But you don't happen to be the "we love you" exclaimer?? This man hit the nail on the head. She's so excellent on stage.

[Operaphile]

Yes, Kirchschlager's CD is sublime. She seems to miss the limelight that Kozena and Joyce have attracted. I love all 3 as well as Vivica Genaux's CDs, but I think Joyce takes the prize now. I still can't decide between Venice Baroque Orchestra/Marcon vs Les Talens Lyriques/Chrisophe Rousset...they both are stunning.

Don't forget Sandrine Piau's Handel disc - it's a strong rival for the greatest ever Handel recital disc alongside Joyce's :)

[MaciasEnglish]

And don't forget Fleming's..... LOL

[Operaphile]

IT WASN"T SOLD OUT?!?!?!?!? Madness!!!! Thank you thank you thank you thank you Guldrun for posting these vids :) As much as I love Handel. I hope her next disc is a Rossini disc :0

[singer19862008]

Effortless,flawless and beautiful singing. Love her!

[wienerfr]

Hello Gudrun,

Thanks for the post. Cannot we hear you laughing at the beginning ? ;o)

[Gudrun74]

:-) wienerfr, as you know, it was so exciting!

[gemmadivergy]

thanks gudrun, we will soon have the whole tour! excellent recording + the intro, great. Don't you think the da capo was better in Amsterdam?

[Satirike]

Thanks Gudrun! Such rich, gorgeous sound - looks like you had a great seat!

[Gudrun74]

Joyce DiDonato is (besides Vivica Genaux) the only singer who doesn't seem to suffer when singing Dopo Notte. Looks like they feel 100% comfortable on stage. They aren't weaker than on CD. Amazing.

[Satirike]

I heard Kozena is good too, but haven't heard her.

Some singers [Angelika Kirchschlager] slow it down a ton but still have beautiful voices.

I loooooove love love Joyce's agility with the fast tempo xD

[joopschilp]

Very good take again, Gudrun, not so shaky as my 'product'. Christophe also more amply in the image. Good place you had. Nice to compare the acoustics of both recordings. Thank you too for posting!
