  • One of my Favorites Opera singer, miss Jessye Norman. BEAUTIFUL....ANGELS of God....WOW!!!!

  • @harpguy18 Swing Low Sweet Chariot is also a little different. Maybe they recorded the dress rehearsal for insurance.

  • @pnyc1969 You know it wasn't a competition? They do have varying vocals and that's what the producers were looking for. Ms Battle excelled when she needed to and Ms Norman did the same. They compliment each other.

  • @Cleveland1040 It's called 'Scandalize My Name'

  • Jessye really outsings Kathleen here. It's sort of the opera equivalent of Diana Ross-Patti Labelle mic toss. But it's great concert. I've enjoyed it for years, esp. Jesse's "Deep River" and "Give Me Jesus" and Kathleen's "Swing Low" and "Witness".

  • @Cleveland1040 That song is called "Scandalize My Name"

  • Actually, thinking about it for a sec it was more like "So you say you're a sister", and each verse was different. OOh, it was great! I wish I could find it again!

  • Does anyone remember that Norman/Battle duet where they were going "you think you're a sister?" It was some old southern folksy tune, and it was great, but I can't find it now!

  • Absolute Heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Certainly BEAUTIFUL!!!
