Dear Youtube User

If you are the COPYRIGHT OWNER of this performance I kindly ask you to first contact me requesting to delete the
video but avoiding to fill a complaint to YouTube administration and I WILL DELETE IT IMMEDIATELY.

It is in fact impossible for me to know if some of my videos constitute copyright infringement because all the material I uploaded is the result of TV recording and passion for the music.

I uploaded the video just to promote the music I love.
I don't want problems with anybody and I never intended to break the copyright law.

Thanks for your understanding

  • Terrible singing.

  • what on earth

  • This is the most perfect version of this song I've heard in years.

  • wonderfull! why not show it to others? i understand the fear, but otherwise its so special what you have made here! I wanted to look up the painting in the end, but could not find it. who made this painting and what is the name.

  • This has brought tears to my eyes. What a gift she has. The orchestra and conductor are perfectly matched. Awesome!!! I am blessed to have heard them!!

  • @pvpeetje: She's from Sweden though she worked a lot for Nederlandse Opera.

  • the shaking is from lack of support. it is my understanding that this is called a "tremolo." she may present an artistic interpretation, but her body is not under her. In other words, her body is disconnected from her voice. it's like trying to cough without moving your gut. if you sing with no support, your voice shivers and shakes. It's not grounded.

  • @Steppenwolf68: the singer is Charlotte Hellekant, alto, a Dutch opera singer. Also like very much her expression and her voice.

  • Perhaps she needs Breath herself?

  • Who is she? Vibrato, yes... but Piaf also had a fast vibrato. This singer might be from oprea: depth, control, a profound understanding and feeling of the dramatic, without which, you cannot sing Handel. She puts herself into the music and brings it all to you.... you only have to be open enough. Wonderful! Thank you!!!
