Elegant Kathleen Battle, seen here with the backdrop of the magnificent Riverside Church, upper Manhattan, New York City. Fauré: "Everything I managed to entertain by way of religious illusion I put into my Requiem, which moreover is dominated from beginning to end by a very human feeling of faith in eternal rest."

  • Many thanks. Beautiful!

  • @melonegro Thank you! I'm very honored to hear from you!

  • Beautiful!

  • @Maritimer2009 Thanks so much! We're in total agreement; grateful to hear from you!

  • Watch Philippe Jaroussky's version! I am a huuuuge fan of Kathleen's, but this is for a boy, and philippe jaroussky is the closest thing any adult voice could be to it. (beautiful by the way, thanks for posting!)

  • @Guichotpresident Thank you so much for your comment! I saw Mr. Jaroussky's rendition and found it to be very beautiful, and moving. I'm sorry for the delay in my response. I wish you a Happy New Year!

  • Hahaha, at 2:19 I just expected the hair to keep going and going..

  • @TrevorDaniels Kathleen Battle is an incredibly gifted artist. full stop. other female singers are jealous of her physical and vocal beauty. full stop. her career at the Met ended for this reason. she IS my desert island female artist. full stop

  • I've been in love with Mrs. Battle.

  • @TrevorDaniels Wishing you the best of times when you see Ms. Battle in person. I never have; maybe never will, but I can hope! Once again, make an evening of it; dinner, and her show! A voice and talent like hers comes around so rarely. Best to you!

  • Love Ms. Battle. Her recordings, while good, don't do her justice. Hearing her live is amazing. Her voice is crystal clear.

    Despite what people say she is a pleasant person. I have met her on three occasions, and she was always nice. I just got tickets the performance she is having here in Los Angeles in two weeks. I am so excited.
