I'm french and for me she has the best french pronunciation of all non french singers. I can clearly understand what she says. And of course she is very talented.
👍
lol, I can never understand sung French! She sings beautifully, though
Eu percebi essa pronúncia correta dela. Pensei que ela fosse francesa! Não sou francês, mas minha mãe era professora de língua e literatura francesa.
True for all the others we only understand the first few words
I agree. When you can understand the lyrics, it makes the song so much better. Her breath control is also amazing. This is my favorite performance of this song by far. Just like Diana Damrau as Queen Of The Night, Ms. Kim really owns this role.
In my opinion, Kathleen performs this song the best. Her tones are so clear and bright, and her control is perfection. Truly a marvel.
I take the liberty of advising you to listen to two other very good performers: Maria Aleida and Natalie Dessay...
This lazytown episode is incredible
Hahahaha good
It's amazing to me that she can sing colatura while walking like a robot. Most people couldn't chew a stick of gum walking around like that.
bob v Yes it’s truly beautiful
It doesn't look so hard to be honest
Eysox are you a soprano?
Actually it is easier to sing when you move around, for example during voice lessons and warm up, especially when it comes to the highs. What’s even harder is singing without moving(in this particular scene, the staging is that way regarding this production(and many others), Kathleen Kim’s coloratura and range is out of this world that she can sing it with being still too.) plus, those moves back up your staccati a lot.
*coloratura. Colatura is an aged Italian fish sauce
Hands down, the best Olympia ever. Kathleen Kim really hits it out of the ballpark!
Rachele was better
You need to listen Luciana Serra's version. Kathleen Kim makes an excellent job in this recording, but Luciana is from other world...
Islftsvifea
AbsolutSCB Natalie Dessay , Maria Aleida and Rachele Gilmore ftw
@Lana My problem with them is that Rachele is so stick, she doesn't move much around the stage. Erin is a good actress, but it feels like she had problems with the breath: she cuts words because she has to breathe and to me it's so annoying.
This is my favorite version I've heard so far, she's just so doll-like and perfect for the role!

I dont' get why so many opera singers essentially just give up even trying to dance and even act at all as opposed to only singing. this performer does the full role really well
와 진짜 몇번을 돌려본지 모르겠네... 감탄밖에 안나온다
부럽다 이제 1321번째인데,,,
ㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ
저도 계속 보는데 볼때마다 소름 돋음
나두..
My favorite version of this aria. Her voice is wonderfully light.
She looks like Stephanie from Lazy Town, it makes me remember my childhood. I loved the performance! Astonishing!
Great acting, and beautiful instrument.
I personally think that she performs masterfully, the way she handles those pianos on high notes. All of it are perfect.

역대 최고의 올림피아라고 생각함
내용을 모르는 사람도 인형이라는걸 바로 알 수 있을정도의 훌륭한 연기도 대단함
한국인 중에 최고 소프라노.
올림피아 중 가장 올림피아 같고 그 올림피아 중 단연 가장 사랑스러운 올림피아입니다 캐슬린킴님의 사랑스러운 목소리에 제 입가에 미소가 띄었습니다
십리도 못가서 발병난 것처럼 계속 되돌아와서 자꾸만 듣게 됩니다.
여러 사람들의 노래를 감상해 본 결과로 제일 안정적인 음색과 빛깔입니다.
정말 듣기 좋아요.
더 많은 영상들을 올려주세요.
저도 여러 성악가들 비교해가며 들어봤는데 다소 충격적인 비주얼만 제외한다면 루치아나 세라님것이 제일 좋더라구요~꼭 들어보세요.
jeez, she is perfection
This opera and this song especially has a very special place in my heart. Long story, but short version: I was fortunate enough to assist as a volunteer the OperaHouse in Nordfjordeid, Norway. This opera required a lot of rehearsals and everytime this song came: I smiled, cried and was totally amazed. Beautiful, funny and catchy song. I bet it's hard to sing it too.
And by the way, the singer nailed it. Everytime. Furthermore, her performance was better after each rehearsal.
❤ never really liked the genre, but after working on one, I realized that this and many other music genre has it's own beauty ❤
This performance resembles to the one I heard.
I am a music teacher i am learning out opera! I showed this video to my students! They were truly fascinated!❤️
자신을 사랑함이 느껴지는 소프라노라 생각합니다. 음악이 안정적이고 역할을 잘 이해한 것 같습니다...
7살 딸애가 인형이라고 해요 ㅎㅎ 사람이라고 말해줘도 인형이라고 하네요~ 저도 몇번을 봤는지 모르겠어요! 최고!!
가장 귀엽고 사랑스러운 올림피아네요
This is a world class performance. I just love listening to it almost daily!
너무 귀엽고 사랑스러운 올림피아에요❤
De loin ma version préférée de ce morceau de bravoure. Exceptionnel. Merci Kathleen Kim !
진짜 이건 언제들어도 레전드급
Brava! It’s been a while since I’ve seen and heard an Olympia as wonderfully technically and dramatically as this.
Being an Engineer, while I am enjoying listening to the singing, I am also appreciating this from a technical and a scientific and mathematical angle. She is singing some connected notes where she moves from one note to the other relatively slowly with no gaps of silence in between and so she can feel and mentally weigh the note and adjust or tune it to project the right frequency, but she is also singing many many unconnected bursts of frequencies which are emerging so quickly from silence into the right frequency, and I find that is remarkable. Every oscillator which I built in my life has a starting transient before it settles down where every component state adjusts itself according. But starting an oscillator very quickly and expect it to settle at the right frequency, almost instantaneously, is almost impossible in electronic circuits even if the oscillator is crystal controlled. Mathematically there are many extra generated frequencies in a burst of a particular note. Actually it is infinity in theory.
Yet here is this young woman, preceding the note with perfect silence then generating the right note almost instantaneously That means that with her mental power, she is silently and consciously adjusting the state of her larynx, her tongue, her teeth and pressure in her lungs and then she let it all go instantaneously to generate the note, and yet there is very little transient notes being generated. How does she know beforehand that the right note is coming our?
Jean-Baptiste Joseph Fourier who was a French mathematician and physicist born in Auxerre and best known for initiating the investigation of Fourier series and their applications to problems of vibrations hence frequency analyses he would also be surprised of the mental power of this singer how she mentally prepares all the necessary singing human components in a split second and knows that the right note will emerge. Remarkable indeed. Add all this to the sense of humour being projected, this singing is very enjoyable from many angles, including its mathematics and the engineering in winding her up occasionally !!!
Well, yes - also being an engineer I have to agree.
Isn't it nice that there are some things that can still amaze us even in these days?
Sir , thank you for appreciating my comments, and it is clear that there are still so many unknown factors around us which will amaze us when we become aware of them. Meanwhile I consider myself a very lucky man in that not only one can appreciates the visible facts before him, but one can link and understand all the other comforts of life to engineering as philosophies and religions and politics through history did not provide much amazement in life but only promises of comfort in the future or after death!!
The support of engineering to arts and the comforts in our homes is something few people appreciate and the appreciation of the power of mathematics and science to increase the appreciation of the invisible components around us, including the beauty of electromagnetic fields is an emotion that one can only build and reach by training the mind to go into a mental state that the eyes and ears and other human sensors can never achieve but only act as input port, but not a processing capacity. Music is beautiful and so necessary, but the components of engineering takes the human mind to higher levels and one needs to evolve beyond human emotions to appreciate the real amazing contents of our universe.
I'm happy that I'm not the only one who likes thinking about the mathematics behind music ;)
I sang in a choir when I was a child, and I always hated warming up before a performance; I thought it was boring and a waste of time. But as I got older I started to understand the point of it: you can't expect your machine to hit the right frequencies when it's cold! I also remember my music teacher chiding me for "scooping" the note, or "sliding into it", like a pop-singer... it's very much like you describe your oscillator starting in one place and settling down into the frequency. Hitting the note straight on takes practice, and you are correct that what Kathleen Kim does here is very remarkable :D
I think it can be agreed that everyone who reads this comment thread will be a little more intelligent after reading it - a rare occurrence these days!
Thanks for sharing and enjoy the great music! :)
800eddie800. Well, thank you for appreciating the wonder of invisible engineering even in the human body and all art.Most people do not appreciate that Engineering is the foundations of art ! When in my original I said, " That means that with her mental power, she is silently and consciously adjusting the state of her larynx, her tongue, her teeth and pressure in her lungs and then she lets it all go instantaneously to generate the note,....." well to think that all that preparation and adjustments of the vocal components to prepare for the launching of the note............. and all she has for comparing and weighing the note is the MEMORY IN HER OWN MIND. She has no external metronome to compare with but only her own silent MEMORY inside her mind that in itself I find so remarkable.
Perhaps all I can say is that we all should aim to dig as deep as we can in the beauty of the universe around us and most of it is so silent and invisible. Thank you for your appreciation in that we should all seek deeper processing of the universe around us. Many people prefer to learn a lot of NOUNS to increase their knowledge, I personally think that we should learn a lot of VERBS to know how the Universe behaves as learning NOUNS you can only describe what you own or see and yet you still do not know anything about it. Verbs on the other hand teach you more than what something is called.
I hope that people who follow this thread appreciate the importance of VERBS rather than learning NOUNS to know what to call items around them and yet they do not know anything about it . Verbs are king in this universe and I believe it is knowing the application of verbs that makes us intelligence.
Marvelous coloratura and magical clarity, timing, and acting.
들을수록 듣고싶은 완벽한 인형의 노래.. 목소리가 넘 안정적이고 청아합니다
that 3:05 part just made me love her. and my jaw dropped for the rest of the video. the technique behind her voice is just out of this world...
진짜 저 자리에 있었으면 환호성을 가장한..감동의 비명 참으려고 기립박수 100분 쳤을거다
Favorite Olympia
Wonderfully sung by Kathleen Kim.
C'est la première étrangère que je comprends. Prononciation et le jeu physique en plus du chant, purée quelle artiste !!!
정말 인형같아요,, 목소리소리도 청아하구요. 잘들었어요♡♡
She is amazing!! she also looks like she is really enjoying playing that role
I was lucky enough to see this exact performance. Kathleen got the most clapping, and she really stole the show!
Remarquable interprétation et cela donne envie d'en voir plus. Tout est une réussite !
beautiful! such a beautiful clear doll like voice - I really love her version
손 끝 디테일까지 미쳤습니다 좌우대칭으로 손가락 모양 맞춰서 유지한 채 저런 고음을 ㅠㅠ 인형 연기 정말 잘 하시네요 왜 최고의 올림피아라고 불리는지 알겠어요
Perfection.
It's very beautiful. Thanks, Offenbach!
Une superbe interprétation et mise en scène. Très réussi !
I saw her perform this a few years back at The Met and she stole the show! Brava.
Absolutely brilliant.
FLAWLESS.
Charming act and celestial voice. Majestic and eloquent lyrics. Exquisite and extraordinary aria, indeed.
Her vocal chords are as tuned as the finest violin! Fantastic!
I heard her live in this production and was amazed. Greta to be able to re-live the event close-up!
뒤에서 연기자들도 입벌리고 보는거 왜케웃겨 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
This is amazing!
와~~ 목소리도 외모도 넘 예쁘고 깜찍한 인형같네요
Straight into my Favorites!
I loved Erin Morley whom I saw via HD Live, but I must admit Kathleen Kim made it funnier, her eyelash fluttering killed me :)
That was just about perfect.
Whaouu... C'est tout simplement extraordinaire !!!! *______*
Jemeriina comme tois
I applauded sitting on my coutch!I had to!The neighbours heard me, i think...
Absolutamente maravilloso!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wonderful !!
Meraviglioso, da vero!!
Brazilian: "' Eu sou rockeiro, curto muito musicas do estilo speedmetal, metal sinfônico etc""
Mas ao ver essa ""boneca"" cantar... afirmo que me fez sorrir bastante, por que?
porquê gostei de ouvir a voz da cantora e sim... a parabenizo e se estivesse assistindo aplaudiria ela e todo elenco de pé!!!
parabéns!!!!🥰👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Oh my goodness this is perfect
조수미님 꺼 하고 캐슬린 김( 김지현 )님 두분꺼 다 봤는데.. 정말.. ㅠ,.ㅠ 감동에 도가니 탕입니다. ㅠ,.ㅠ 감사합니다.
Bravo!!
My fav episode of lazy town!!
I cannot get enough of thissss
Que lindo!!😍

괴로움이 사라질만큼 아름답다....^^♡♡
Bravissimo!!
Absolutely fabulous.
Pretty and very talented.
저런 인형이면 나도 반하지....
She's really little like a doll :) Luciana Serra's performance is unbreakable in overall, after that Erin Morley sings incredible.
Perfeito, minha nossa!
Her acting is so good that if you told me she actually was a robot I would believe you.
Fantastic
