Is it the Philips studio from 1975 which is post sync?

It amazes me how she can just glide as she sings, this is perhaps most prominent at sanft entweht, though she constantly reinvents this with delicacy. Its rare to have a dramatic soprano who is so smooth and whole. The challenges of such work can change any artist's sound to shrill, a showman or hasty -never her. Yet for all this perfection it is not lacking in power, its the opposite, she lifts everything without effort. There's a purity to her sound, something ancient runs through this woman.

i am so choked that the last three goddamn bars of the liebestod are missing from this video. i was just sitting here with my mouth gaping wide open with my my hands outstretched gestulating like a moron. what an enormous tease.

Awesome.



The video is very beautiful; I can't describe with words Wagner's music, it seem like it's written by the hand of god. Norman's voice...woooow...
