Magnifiques! Dessay est de la magie... déconnexion totale. Merci à cette dame pour ce qu'elle apporte; je l'ai vue dans les Contes d'Hoffamn avec Haddock à Orange et tous étaient superbes
I heard a clip of this von Otter and Bonney and loved it but this with Dessey is just as lovely and a surprise. I never knew Dessey sang Strauss. Such a light and lyrical style.
Wow, 2:27 makes me cry every time. I’m in love with this rendition. I performed the suite to this wonderful opera about a year ago. So happy I found this amazing video.
I didnt know Dessay had sung Sophie. Contrary to what most people write here, I find her singing quite beautiful and radiant and the two voices blend extremely well. Delightful!
In an interview for arte in 1993 Natalie Dessay said that the possibilty to sing Sophie was actually the main reason why she became a member of the ensemble of the Vienna States Opera. It was originally not planed that she sings Olympia...
And Güden should never be forgotten in a list of the best Sophies, as well. That 1954 version with Jurinac as Oktavian and Kleiber conducting is one of the most beautiful things one's ever going to hear. ;-)
Thank you for uploading this historical document: It was one of two performances Natalie Dessay ever sang Sophie - and I was the lucky guy to hear both of them live! :-)
I love this recording so much. I tear up every time starting at 2:38 I performed this summer of 2019, and it has completely changed my outlook on music and emotional expression.
Interesting.... Here (3:37) the trumpet plays an E NATURAL, when the score says Eflat... I must say I prefer the subtle harmonic of the E natural, as an appogiatura to the top note, but... Then I listened to different versions and quite a few of them play the E natural as well....
@64marc64 I'm not sure if it's available on DVD, but I know there is video out there of this full production from 1994 in Vienna, but with Bonney as Sophie. Unfortunately, the 2 clip I posted is all I have.
The Austrian Broadcast Corporation recorded a few months before, this performance, a performance with Carlos Kleiber!!! With Dessay, they recoeded only the Presentation of the Rose!!!
Blague à part, Dessay est excellente,mais en terme de style, je reste perplexe. Quant aux plus belles Sophie du monde, je veux citer Berger, Streich über alles, et bien sur Rothenberger, "the best on earth" selon le mot de Lotte Lehmann.
Il ne faut pas oublier les conditions dans lesquelles elle a fait cette Sophie, toute jeunette en troupe à l'opéra de Vienne, sans AUCUNE répétition avec orchestre.... Alors le style... son 1er grand et long rôle en allemand... par la suite elle a eu le temps et l'occasion de l'acquerir, avec d'innombrables Zerbinette, une Fiakermilli au Met, des Schweigsame Frau (Wien et Paris)... Mais oui dommage qu'elle n'ait pas pris le temps de mûrir ce rôle que, je crois elle n'a jamais beaucoup aimé.
Beautiful production and von Otter is sublime in the title role, only wish they'd found a warmer voiced Sophie. While Dessay's acting is uncharacteristically poised (to the point of seeming sedated), that metallic, spreading, uneven tone makes the character sound cheap to me.

![[HD] Presentation of the Rose - Jurinac & Rothenberger](/img/1.gif)
Exquisitely done by both; Dessay does the first phrase at 2:38 in one breath. And the "look'at 3:35 is perfect.

Un bellissimo duetto, emozionante

Wow❤Beautiful!!!
Beautiful staging!
Beautiful Anne&Natalie✨✨✨

Acacia Bloom I agree. And von Otter matches her every step of the way.
In an interview for arte in 1993 Natalie Dessay said that the possibilty to sing Sophie was actually the main reason why she became a member of the ensemble of the Vienna States Opera. It was originally not planed that she sings Olympia...
I know little about this sort of music, but I do know I should have listened to more of it.
And Güden should never be forgotten in a list of the best Sophies, as well. That 1954 version with Jurinac as Oktavian and Kleiber conducting is one of the most beautiful things one's ever going to hear. ;-)
Merci Richard Strauss

Satyrspiel where else did Dessay sing Sophie and when?
@@eduardobraivein8496 these only 2 performances at the Wiener Staatsoper, nowhere else.
I love this recording so much. I tear up every time starting at 2:38

Ms Dessay is gorgeous
Magnifique!
Let's not forget Stich-Randall on the 1957 EMI Angel recording.
Grosse Duetto.
Grande cantora, imensa atriz a Dessay!
dessay und von otter sind mir die liebsten
évidement sublime....
👏👏👏👏👏
I love Ms. von Otter. Dessay is excellent here, but Barbara Bonney is probably my favorite Sophie that I've heard.
Bonney and Popp are extraordinary as Sophie.
AGREED! Barbara Bonney is the best ever!
Bonney is in my top three. Morley as well.
Excellent!
Wonderful

Bellísima Aria
Duet
Sehr textverständlich,super Bühnenbild.Extraklasse.
brillante!
grazieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, ti amo
You HAVE to send this to me!!!!
@64marc64 Deutsch Grammaphon released a DVD of the full production, I bought it over the summer. It's awesome.
Where could I find the recording of this or even video with the two of them? I love both of them!
superbe
Sublimissime ! ! ! !
🌹
Lucia Popp right on. Young Schwarzkopf with a bit of steel in her voice and excellent too.
@64marc64 I'm not sure if it's available on DVD, but I know there is video out there of this full production from 1994 in Vienna, but with Bonney as Sophie. Unfortunately, the 2 clip I posted is all I have.
Bonney is a sublime Sophie!
merci beaucoup , if by chance it would exist in dvd ?
Bonney can’t be beat.
Wow this is an amazing rendition !
BTW who was the Marschallin, and Ochs in that show ?
Moll and Gwyneth Jones
Would anyone know where one could get the full performance of this?
Wes Hui I don't have the full video, but I do have in-house audio, if you're interested.
I would very much enjoy that!
Wes Hui search der rosenkavalier Kurt Moll
The Austrian Broadcast Corporation recorded a few months before, this performance, a performance with Carlos Kleiber!!!
With Dessay, they recoeded only the Presentation of the Rose!!!
1m60 !!
who does the high G and where does it come in?
Is this actually the same run of performances of the recording with Bonney???
No
Definitely the. same staging, simply beautiful.
würden die hörner nicht an heikelsten stellen falsch spielen, wäre es noch besser ;-))
Fine performance by both. Sophie is a bit artists. Von otter perfect.
Dessay can hold up the line beautifully but she cannot beat Popp
Also Rotherberger is superb! Bregen is not bad either...
I am not exactly sure, but she is very small. Under 1,60 metres
So her height is probably 5'3?😐
@@elizabethveron9542 no 5 foot 3 is 160cm . Less maybe 157cm or so

Dommage que Lotte Lehmann n'ait pas pu connaître Lucia Popp
Il ne faut pas oublier les conditions dans lesquelles elle a fait cette Sophie, toute jeunette en troupe à l'opéra de Vienne, sans AUCUNE répétition avec orchestre....

@hullguy123
*lol*
It si ok. But Bonney forever!
The best Sophie ever was Anneliese Rothenberger !!!!
ohne jeglichen Zweifel. Unerreichbar.
I usually like Dessay, but she sounds like a child here.
she always sounds like a child in her good days. when she did try to sound like a grown up she desroyed her voice and sounds horrible.
She sounds much less of a child than she usually did. He floated notes are anything else but childlike
Sophie is a child, to be fair.
Dessay sings beautifully-pity that her voice changed later in a bad way!
Beautiful production and von Otter is sublime in the title role, only wish they'd found a warmer voiced Sophie. While Dessay's acting is uncharacteristically poised (to the point of seeming sedated), that metallic, spreading, uneven tone makes the character sound cheap to me.
povero Strauss ...
I just don’t think Dessay is suit for this role.
