This interview is one of my all time favorites. This is a subject that I would love to see more of. Mrs Hannigans has a perspective that many of us would enjoy hearing more of.
Id just like to mention, that Ms Hannigan - besides being a breathtaking singer and musician - is one of the (or even *_the_* ) most gifted conductor(s) I have ever watched.
Why can she not become (physically) immortal?
This discussion was fascinating, extremely informative, and deeply inspiring. I’m particularly fascinated by how Hannigan has sought out training in all sorts of disciplines outside of music in order to bring greater confidence and nuance to her work on stage. When a performer of her distinction speaks so vulnerably about matters like stage fright and the different ways she’s learned to negotiate it with grace, it slashes my own shame about such issues in half. We performers want to disguise our fear from the the audience before us, but it’s so important that we find a team (as she put it) to be candid and vulnerable with and who will provide feedback that grows us as artists and performers.
It goes without saying that Hannigan isn’t the only multi-talent in this interview. Sarah, you bring your remarkable ability to listen and think on your toes to your work here, navigating the computer, questions from viewers around the world, and your role as an interviewer with real aplomb. As Hannigan says, more or less, “women are multi-taskers.” Thank you so much for this wonderful discussion!
The books mentioned in the interview:
Mindset: A Mental Guide for Sport by Jackie Reardon and Hans Dekkers
Performance Success: Performing Your Best Under Pressure by Don Greene
Great interview. Very inspiring and relieving. Thanks for sharing.
A rare treat to hear the wisdom of a genius - thank you Sarah
Extraordinary artist
"The good thing is that I get over my fear of singing. Because I basically just have fear of death for the entire first scene. So that works very well." ∞ awesome ∞

What a marvelous performer!
On the musical side:
7:59 Ligeti’s Mysteries of the Macabre
8:52 Preparing repertoire
9:43 Listening to the whole soundworld collectively created.
11:07 Not closing off!
11:44 Grounding breath
14:57 Concept of allowing the air to come in.
18:14 Dealing with performance anxiety.
22:35 The nerves never go away.
(see other comment)
35:08 Berg’s Lulu
Great time stamps.
On preparation, what a great quote: "I learned that piece (Ligeti) like a Mozart concert aria.Very slowly, very, very, carefully; incredibly disciplined attention (believe it or not) to do the most beautiful tone that I could, with the most disciplined technique that I could."
Thank you for making these videos of these wonderful performers accessible to us!
Una stupenda attrice che recita sempre
una parte specifica al meglio accuratamente studiata in ogni circostanza sulla scena e fuori dalla scena.
Another guest whose knowledge and talents cannot be explored with only one hangout! Many good tips for performers in this edition.
She’s an awesome and very complete sensitive musician, extremely intelligent, but I didn’t expect to find such wealth on dealing with the mind:
24:58 She speaks of “that dialog” and not engaging with it.
26:56 Never going into “what if.”
27:57 Mistake recovery. Cruising back to altitude.
30:00 Friendly eyes. No bashing yourself.
30:30 Honest Criticism.
38:25 Dealing with nerves through the body.
I was also marveled at the scope of Barbara’s mastery that’s revealed throughout the interview.
Just watched it - September 2022! Very entertaining and useful. Every time I see Barbara - whether it is in discussion, singing, or conducting -- I'm always hugely impressed. Many thanks to the two of you!
_Barbara Hannigan ist meine Weihnachtsüberraschung. Als ein tiefer LIGETI-FAN wurde ich über Facebook auf sie aufmerksam und ich bin total begeistert.... und bewundere sie, mit ihrer ganzen künstlerischen Genialität. Weil ich ein Maler bin, mit Altmeisterlichen Maltechniken werde ich ihr ein grosses Gemälde malen und widmen. Die Entstehung dessen wird filmisch dokumentiert von mir. DANKE Barbara Hannigan und Sarah Willis. Your Knox G.Stallbauer.
Barbara Hannigan is an extraordinary beautiful lady!
They are both beautiful, and from what I can tell, not only externally.
In multiple ways.
Dear Barabara Hannigan You are beautiful - you are a great singer - and artist of the world. THANK YOU :::: WE LOVE YOU
yes we are the coolest...and these two ladies are wonderful for sharing this talk.
Ms Hannigan would be a great teacher. I'm a professional bassoonist working in Canada and these sessions are wonderful. Thank you so much.
I love this video... I love it!
LOVE this program, so many useful tips and deep discussions, and it's oddly comforting to know that even someone of Barbara's incredibly fine artistry has had to sing a "soprano Nessun Dorma outdoors in the freezing cold in a pop star dress with Euro beats and tv screens" gig. (For which I hope she was paid megabucks.)
I think I have never watched a video so full of fundamental advises! Thank you!
Fantastic interview!
Wow!
I love you Barbara
Friendly eyes, great advice!
She's right about conducting and singing along..
Can someone help me finding the books mentioned in the interview, please :)??
11:53 - very zen
i do agree that performance anxiety is purely detrimental, however I do think it is possible for anyone to get rid of it entirely by initiating a duel state of intense musicality and indifference. a lot of people simply don't want to accept indifference but in reality the stronger the neutrality base the more potential for energy to be put into sound instead of the endless potential for distracting compensation devices.
Easily said!!
Sarah, I just watched the entire thing and I can't find the perfect pitch part. Would you know what time marker it's at? Lovely interview!!!!
I was trying to hear the name of the second singer who inspired her... Musakhet Kubayi? 45:29
MINDSET by Carol Dweck, fantastic book absolutely! I also suggest TALENT IS OVERRATED by Geoff Colvin
What happened to the sound? Was the sound engineer asleep? Other than that, great interview. Like them both!
Watch online "I`m a Creative Animal" our documentary about the incredible Barbara Hannigan www.srf.ch/player/tv/sternstunde-musik/video/im-a-creative-animal---barbara-hannigan?id=5f7e2510-2f36-46b0-8bfa-399920cd052a
Te Kanawa also mentions air conditioning as a problem.
Barbara Hannigan reminds me of Cathy Berberian.
snap!
Why is it that the light is really better on Sarah Willis than on Barbara Hannigan ?
