You sing so very good!. A beautiful song needs a beautiful voice. I have heard this song many times before but no singer ever made me cry hearing it, until now.

I love this piece. I still expect the mayor chord in the word shades. It is a nice and unexpected turn.

You're very talented! I love to hear this song with the recitative...most singers cut straight to the aria. Thanks for sharing this recital on youtube.
