AKA O Moon. From the opera Rusalka by Antonin Dvorak. "Měsíčku na nebi hlubokém" has long been touted as the signature aria of Renée Fleming, the famous American lyrical soprano. Her personal interpretation include augmenting the 'chorus' of the aria and the final notes of the aria. This version is, however, our preferred one, recorded by Frederica Von Stade.

This recording is presented and selected from the albun "Dvorak in Prague.

We took the shots of the moon intermingling with both white and dark clouds and an occasional tree or two waving on the side. We hope viewers will not get too bored as the moon is the star during the entire six minutes. We didn't find a similar presentation on the Tube, hence the decision to upload most of the clips taken in a park a few nights ago.

  • This is also my favorite version. Thank you so much for posting it. The video was perfect with it, great job!

  • Is Frederica von Stade more of a mezzo soprano than Renee Fleming? My feeling is that the former voice is just a bit lower and rounder.

  • @lydiadugan i personally prefere Frederica... :)

  • Is this the voice of Frederica von Stade? I do not know who sings this better, Renee Fleming or Frederica?

  • My favorite interpretation of this lovely song.

  • I agree Von Stade's version is also my favorite! Thank you so much for posting!!!!

  • I loved the photography, can you tell me what setting the camera has to be on? If you'd like to hear my version I'd like to hear any comments (but I haven't performed it yet, that was a practice)
