  • What is the first song? it made me cry

  • She was a nice looking woman as well as a great singer... R.I.P

  • No words.. Just love and tears. .. R.I.P.

  • Indeed...No more slavery chains for you...GodSpeed...And flights of Angels sing thee to they rest...Love Danielle in Washington DC

  • Miss Verrett passed away yesterday. I'm devastated. Verrett was an iconic and intensely hot singer, a true artist in every sense of the word. Rest in peace. Awake in glory.

  • Rest in peace. I am saddened to hear of her passing! Rest well in God's arms.

  • What is the aria she sings after the first song?!? It begins at 0:28

  • @Gav640: Aida's duet (Amneris)

  • We will never see a singer like Verrett again. What an exciting singer and actress to watch.

  • Does anyone know what the first song is and how I can get a hold of it? :D

    On a different note: Give me Shirley Verrett as a Mezzo, give me Shirley Verrett as a Dramatic Soprano; I don't care, just give me Shirley Verrett. Not only one of the greatest voices that ever lived, but also a damn good actress.

  • This is from the Lp record "Singin' in the storm", it's a song called "No more slavery chains for me".

    I think you can buy it on E-bay for example.

  • Yes I say the same.....it's Shirley all the way.

  • Could you please inform us about the song title that she sings at 1:27 ? Do you have it sung as a whole?

    I would be very thankful ! Best wishes .

  • It is called "JUST A CLOSER WALK", but I don't know much about it. I suppose it's a spiritual, or a traditional sacred aria. It's from Verrett's album "Sacred Songs".

  • WHAT IS THE ARIA BEING SUNG AT 5:15?'

  • It is the 1st duet of Medea, Cherubini!

  • THIS IS SO AWESOME!

  • foropera you have outdone yourself, as did Verrett on most nights, thank you.

  • what a voice............I love Verrett!

  • Thank you ! Great !

  • Faboulos! Thank you very much foropera
