Rossini: Una voce poco fa&fmt=18

Inger Dam-Jensen is a member of The Royal Danish Opera and has the full potential of an international superstar, but only on rare occations has she traveled as far as to the USA. She is well known at Europe's leading theatres of classical music, where she has performed with great succes. Now she quite seldom goes abroad, because she let her family come first.
This recording is from 1993, and I regret to tell, that the subtitle is in her odd native language called danish which is spoken by only 5 million people, but not understood by 5 billion!
Carl Vendler

Can anyone with a better ear than mine tell me, what note Inger Dam-Jensen sings at 3:43 ??

[wysiwyg248]

Very nice performance, fresh! Thank you for posting this Olfux.

I love the way she pronounces 'Lindorro' :}. I also noticed she pronounces the g in giocar very soft, almost like an i.

Is it the way is pronounced in Danish?

[Olfux]

Dear wysiwyg248!

The letter g can be pronounced in several different ways in danish: a hard g as the g in get, a broad, soft g as the w in walk, a soft g as the y in yellow. That's what I can think of right now, there are probably a couple of more ways.

Besides, I must congratulate you on your ear.

I myself can't hear her singing what you can. Maybe because I'm danish and don't notice those small differences.

If one is going to add ornaments to Rossini, it would be nice if they were original and not the same ones all the other sopranos add. Also, I don't think the jaw is supposed to move that much singing coloratura.

A really sour comment, that is to no use for anyone. Come again, when you are in a better mood and teach us something of value - about artificial rhumba and how to overdo Händels Mesiah for instance?

Jeg elsker Inger Dam-Jensen, hun er den største operasangerinde i verden!

[Olfux]

Det er i orden, men husk jeg så hende først, så hun er min !

:o)

@Olfux If I'm not mistaken, she's singing the version in F, so that would make the note a high F.

[PakoChile]

@Olfux It's an F

[musclexboy]

PESSIMA PRONUNCIA ITALIANA .. Vada a studiare ! Vergogna !

@offux Who the hell do you think you are to be calling Danish odd, you xenophobic prick.

[ilovechocolatechip]

@Olfux I think it's an F - I was definitely not expecting it, either way!
