Tol'ko Raz (Only Once). Dmitri Khvorostovsky

My friend, let me allowed to call  you this way SIR, you are just, just..can't ...

Magnifique mélodie servie somptueusement par la voix et l'interprétation de Dmitri Hvorostovsky

Bozhe mogu ya skazat tolko - gari gari zvezda Dimi Hvorostovskovo. Privet J.

Day and night my heart expresses fondness,Day and night my head spins around,Day and night like an impassioned fairy tale,Your words resound in my ears.~~A true encounter happens but once in life,The thread of life is torn by fate but once,Only this once,on a cold and wintry evening,I so much desire to love.~~The ray of the crimson sunnset melts away,The flowers are wrapped in the blueness of dusk,Where are you, the one I once so desired,Where are you,who planted this longing in me?

Dmitri Khvorostovsky is an amazing singer and these Russian Romances songs are amazing! These songs are inspiring me to learn Russian cause I want to understand the lyrics too. From what I've figured out, the lyrics to these Russian Romances are heavy & sad, full of romantic poetry consisting of an imagery inspired by images from nature. Romantic era stuff (1820's to c. 1910)...and lovely!

I got exactly the same inspiration when I heard him the first time singing these russian songs ! That's kind of funny ! I must learn that language ! Let's start ! That singer Hvorostovsky is a great ideal for real russian cultural heritage, I mean singing with body and soul ! This got lost over the years(world-wide) and as a big fan of the italian tenors Mario del Monaco and Franco Corelli, I am very happy to see a new classical age coming !!!

Dmitri Khvorostovsky´s voice is rapturous, it surprises us at every new moment.

AMAZING!!!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Magnificent!
