I think technically it's a duet, not an aria. But isn't it beautiful, no matter what it's called?

Excellent voices and team work. One of the best Flower Duets on youtube.

Awful video to view, but wonderful phrasing and expressive voices...lovely

Quizas el duo femenino mas hermoso en una Opera, no solo por la excepcional calidad de las cantantes sino por la belleza de la letra y dela musica. Toda una delicia escucharlas.

Nice setting, and singers

"Sous le dome epais ou le blanc jasmin
A la rose s'assemble
Sur la rive en fleurs riant au matin
Doucement glissons De son flot charmant
Suivons le courant fuyant
Dans l'onde fremissante
D'une main nonchalante
Viens, gagnons le bord,
Ou la source dort et
L'oiseau, l'oiseau chante."

@ie20 "Lakme" premiered in 1883 with van Zandt and Frandin singing this duet.

love this song but.... this has to be one of the worst quality videos on you tube. most bootleg new movies look better than this. but thanks for posting. Im kinda shocked you didnt get caught with the vhs camcorder from 1983 in the audience(kidding...kinda)

lol, I think it was actually filmed by the opera company! I don't think it was meant to be released or anything - it's just a theater archival copy. But I agree - it is pretty bad.
