Sissel, the international singing sensation from Norway, is widely regarded as one of the finest and most talented sopranos in the world. Her crystalclear voice has made Sissel a national institution in Norway. Sissel has sung all over the world, selling over six million solo albums. She contributed the haunting vocal tracks for the soundtrack to Titanic. She has been doing great duets with singers like Placido Domingo, Charles Aznavour, Taro Ichihara, Bryn Terfel, Jose Carreras, Russell Watson, Kurt Nilsen, Neil Sedaka and Josh Groban. A very remarkable voice you will only hear once in your lifetime.

This is Sissel singing a fantastic version of this classic from "Dido and Æneas" by Henry Purcell.

DIDO`S LAMENT

When I am laid, am laid in earth, May my wrongs create
No trouble, no trouble in thy breast;

When I am laid, am laid in earth, May my wrongs create
No trouble, no trouble in thy breast;

Remember me, remember me, but ah! forget my fate.
Remember me, but ah! forget my fate.

Remember me, remember me, but ah! forget my fate.
Remember me, but ah! forget my fate.

  • So what is this a funeral hymn??

  • What a weedy little voice she has!

  • Wonderful, Simple is not the right word but - simple in a very positive sense.

  • Simple and nice.

  • Quite unexpected and wonderful.

  • I don't understand how anyone could possibly dislike this! I've already listened to it at least 10times on replay and it gets me every time. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful voice!!

  • Dido and Aeneas is one of the finest operas with a great story and excellent music, and Sissel shows one of the best performances in Dido's Lament with her crystal celar voice. It's a pity that I can't find her albums here in istanbul.

  • Sissel, my dear, your voice is haunting me!

  • Hauntingly amazing,it reaches down into your soul and rips it apart,but I digress...

  • Nie znam tekstu, ale klimat utworu i cudowny spiew zapiera oddech.
