Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante Anna Netrebko Munich 2005

Carmen
Georges Bizet

Micaëla's aria

Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante

MICAËLA

C'est des contrebandiers le refuge ordinaire.
Il est ici; je le verrai!
Et le devoir que m'imposa sa mère
Sans trembler je l'accomplirai

Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante,
je dis, hélas! que je réponds de moi;
mais j'ai beau faire la vaillante,
au fond du coeur,
je meurs d'effroi!
Seule en ce lieu sauvage,
toute seule j'ai peur,
mais j'ai tort d'avoir peur;
vous me donnerez du courage,
vous me protégerez, Seigneur!

Je vais voir de près cette femme
dont les artifices maudits
ont fini par faire un infâme
de celui que j'aimais jadis!
Elle est dangereuse...
elle est belle!...
Mais je ne veux pas avoir peur!
Je parlerai haut devant elle... ah!
Seigneur, vous me protégerez!

Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante,
je dis, hélas! que je réponds de moi;
mais j'ai beau faire la vaillante,
au fond du coeur je meurs d'effroi!
Seule en ce lieu sauvage,
toute seule j'ai peur,
mais j'ai tort d'avoir peur;
vous me donnerez du courage,
vous me protégerez, Seigneur!
Protégez moi! O Seigneur!

My God! It is Netrebko, ha ha.

I never thought she had sung this. I liked it very much, I think her voice fits very well. Better than Mimi, for example.

Thanks for posting this.

[leporello89]

She's going to sing Micaela in Vienna next year with Garanca, D'Arcangelo...and Villazon...I think she could be a great Micaela, better than Lucia ;)

You're welcome :)

Anna, todo lo canta muy bien y al que no le guste, no la escuche y no la critique.

[thebigwhitt38]

I think all of you people need to stop hating on her. She has a successful opera career... and you don't soooo....

[vivegedda]

@leporello89 Sorry,she is simply disgusting Her french is terrible,she has no rythm at all, peurre? the worst recordib-ng i've ever heard. By the way i know what i'm talking about since i'm an opera musician and i am french. Horrible!!!!!

[Southerntredkill]

She always takes my breath away no matter what she sings or how many times I hear Anna Netrebko. Micaela's aria is positivaly radient and she sings it beautifully. I will never understand why Don Jose continues to return to Carmen.

I am someone who hit the dislike button, because I am truly disappointed in this performance. Her rhythm is atrocious; she comes in late, turns syncopated sixteenth note phrases into straight eighth note phrases, and her French is questionable at best, adding syllables to the ends of words to make them easier to sing. Having performed this role I am well aware of how it should sound. Mind you, I do not fault her gorgeous tone, only her lack of musicianship.

@numetutelare Ma quali acuti duri? .....Brava Anna!!!

[numetutelare]

Perché questo "soprano" non ascolta la Freni in questa parte? Forse capirebbe cosa significa quest'aria... canta in modo sfocato...con fiati precari e note acute dure.

Meno male che é bella... scenograficamente non fa danni.

[andreea94a]

She sings so beautiful...and makes it sound so easy.

@wien05 She is good?  and she sounds like an old woman? This is opera friend. Not whatever you are dreaming of.
