Veronique Gens sings dove sono i bei momenti

[OperaMystery80]

This is beautiful and Veronique Gens is a gifted Mozartian soprano. Her Countess in Figaro is magnificent. The embellishment and little flourishes she sings aren't excessive and they are quite lovely. In Mozart's time, the divas used even grander embellishments so here, at least, Veronique is still singing with respect to the original music and it's quite lovely. This is very period-perfect and gorgeously sung.

Obviously the best version of "Dove sono i bei momenti" available. Brava!

I really like this version but for me it`s no the best, only diferent, Tekanawa has a very mozartian beautiful way of sing and Schawrzkopf and specially Janowitz made the diference and the stile of the Mozart opera in their age, And for me is really extrange how Jacobs use laud for the continuo in Mozart!!

@joafmusick It's not a luth :-) It's a fortepiano!

It's really great, with a lot of emotion and stuff, until she misses the high notes at the end. They're just a tiny bit under. I'm bummed, because it really detracts from the whole.

This is a amazing version. I love seen the aria of Susanna "giunse al fin il momento" in Jacobs's version

In 2001 I saw the production, on which this recording was based, in Paris' Théâtre des Champs-Elysées. I was greatly impressed. And still am.
