Dear God. Listen to ALL the interpretations of Zueignung and I swear you'll not find a more touching yet accurate, precise yet virtuoso one. What would I give to get to hear that miracle live.
Seeing her live on stage at the Berlin Philharmonic Hall in 1994, singing Strauss' "Vier Letzte Lieder" can safely be described as one of the highlights of my life! An experience I'll NEVER forget! Thank You!
... hab' es jetzt fast jeden Abendseit 14 tagen gehört und vor allem gesehen: Fazinierendste, edelste, stärkste Leidenschaftlichkeit - es ging kein Mal ohne "Gänsehaut"! Liebe macht krank.
Ich bin jedesmal fertig, wenn ich diese Video sehe! Eine Stimme wie ein starker Kaffee, eine Ausstrahlung wie eine Göttin und eine Textfolge, die genialer nicht sein kann! Danke, Jessye!
Lyric technic is an amazing and physiological work!In this video with Madam Jessye Norman , it happens an amazing moment,the open “gola”,the movements of the tongue going down,up,closing the “gola”,opening the eyes like”surprise!!!”,closing the mouth throwing the sound to the head.....what a lesson!!!To be seeing over and over again and confirm that our body is a great instrument in singing TOO!
In the REALM OF OPERATIC MUSIC , I am so delighted....delighted that the GOOD FORCES OF THE UNIVERSE CHOSE Ms. JESSYE NORMAN! OH how wonderfully she executes those notes in "Es Gibt ein Reich"! Her singing makes me believe even in things I cannot see.
Beautiful! I simply adore her. Everything about her! I've noticed of late some pop singers are rather inappropriately referred to as Divas, singers who really know little about the actual mechanism of the voice and all it can do. Jessye Norman is a Diva in every sense of the word. She also has a wonderful sense of humour. She once had trouble getting in to her seat on a plane and the stewardess said to her : Perhaps if tried sideways..... Jessye Norman replied : My dear, I have no sideways!"
I truly love the arts. Me being a singer myself. I get sterotyped as a R&B singer, but Opera and many other genres have inspired me to expand my range as well as expose others to what people in other smaller countries already embrace. The first award I ever won was for singing Opera, Jessye Norman was my inspiration.
I’am floored.. !!..I mean the incredible support… the majestic quality of that voice of this Galaxy !!… The Best and only Contralto.. Soprano… In this life of many.. Jessie was and is the Best of her craft without peer.. Many are Similar in their own right examples being Kathleen Battle… yet No Other.. soprano has the sheer volume and crisp intensity of her caliber…..She reigns now forever in the stars!!!!
I wish there were more recordings at a similar angle. It was amazing to see how relaxed her tongue is and exactly how she used the space in her mouth. Extremely helpful!
This singer is a uniquely divine creation. As if her very name was meant to assist in the nature of her voice called a dramatic soprano. Jessye Norman! There is power and wonder in that name. I am glad that teh forces of universe/the galaxy chose Jessye Norman!I say to those who would even think of destructive criticism pertinent t Ms. Norman this much: YOU do NOT understand the nature of the dramatic soprano. YOU need to be sufficiently educated in the rel of operatic voices. Yes, SUPERB!
She is always inside the music - particularly when singing the lieder of Richard Strauss. They are difficult songs to really execute well possibly because the textures obscure somewhat the absolute simplicity of mood inherent in each. They can easily be overdone. They are a complete marriage between voice and all that lives around it to bring lyricism into being. For me, the songs themselves almost determine the timbre of voice to sing them. This is so beautiful to me!
This is my piece for my final exam this sem.. it's quite tough to sing, yet, Jessye Norman sung it very well.. She has such an amazing voice.. trully awesome:)
i would sell my soul for just an hour lesson with this woman.............when you watch her sing you can see all the way down into her chest!!!! I love her so much.....Brava Jessye!!!
That's a famous gag from the 20's, Ernestine Schumann-Heink said it to Caruso while he was trying to help her get into a taxi.. Well-known and beloved by everyone in the opera biz, Norman was obviously quoting it and expected people to recognize it.
Ja, du weißt es, teure Seele, Daß ich fern von dir mich quäle, Liebe macht die Herzen krank, Habe Dank. Hielt ich nicht, der Freiheit Zecher, Hoch den Amethysten-Becher, Und du segnetest den Trank, Habe Dank. Und beschworst darin die Bösen, Bis ich, was ich nie gewesen, Heilig an Herz dir sank, Habe Dank.
It does look like she is lip synchinging but regardless her voice is AMAZING!!! I can't get over how wide her mouth goes, thats crazy. But damn if that is what creates that beautiful sound, I am all for it. You go girl!!! I am doing this song this semester, but I am a high baritone/tenor. KEEP ROCKING JESSYE!!!!!
WOW! This is a great lesson in itself of how not to be tight with the tongue and throat! My teacher is trying to rid me of my tightness! My jaw is too tight & controlled and I sing in my throat...I can't figure how to get over it! BUt this is a great lesson! WOW! If only I can duplicate a fraction of her technique, I'd be set!
Schwarzkopff is for me another gem when it comes to Strauss. Perhaps the brightest jewel in the crown. Less so Kiri Te Kanawa, where the timbre is perhaps a little too thin....... I do not know. But Schwarzkopff.......!!!
She is more than a great dramatic soprano; she is a great actress! Just scrutinize the acting in this piece. It is demanding ; it is given by Jessye Norman.
There will never be another Jessye Norman
and now she´s dead...
I totally agree....she rests in our hearts forever! Greetings from Austria
Alas, so true. But I’m grateful we had her with us for a time.
Dear God. Listen to ALL the interpretations of Zueignung and I swear you'll not find a more touching yet accurate, precise yet virtuoso one. What would I give to get to hear that miracle live.
Agreeed this gives me so many goosebumps she really conveys the comfort through this music
Seeing her live on stage at the Berlin Philharmonic Hall in 1994, singing Strauss' "Vier Letzte Lieder" can safely be described as one of the highlights of my life! An experience I'll NEVER forget! Thank You!
Strauss und Jessye Norman - eine wundervolle Symbiose. Ihre Interpretation der "letzten Lieder" ist bis heute unereicht. Danke
was für eine unglaubliche Stimme !!! wie ein Engel...
The World has NOT known a better dramatic soprano than her highness, Lady Jessye Norman.
Some critics said she is a rare falcon soprano. RIP
@@sorawitsangkharat6442 Mezzo-Soprano with a gift.
You’re not wrong!!!🙌
Wow her voice is just phenomenal and she’s a very stunning woman!
*was phenomenal *was a very stunning woman Ms. Norman is no longer with us: she died in 2019.
Wow! This is a lesson in jaw movement, tongue placement and palate lift along with artistic expression all in one!
@@thaliarice3891 It's dubbed! It's her voice, but, the entire documentary is overdubbed in the studio. Weird.
I didnt see a palate lifting
When a lovely song is so short!!! Jessye always lives me in awe.
I love hearing anything that Jessye Norman sings! She is a great lady!
Ich habe Gänsehaut am ganzen Körper! Ruhe in Frieden, Göttin Jessye! Wir vermissen Dich unendlich....
... hab' es jetzt fast jeden Abendseit 14 tagen gehört und vor allem gesehen: Fazinierendste, edelste, stärkste Leidenschaftlichkeit - es ging kein Mal ohne "Gänsehaut"!
Liebe macht krank.
An amazingly beautiful Diva , what a superb human , what a voice , so sad she went too soon .
Ich bin jedesmal fertig, wenn ich diese Video sehe! Eine Stimme wie ein starker Kaffee, eine Ausstrahlung wie eine Göttin und eine Textfolge, die genialer nicht sein kann! Danke, Jessye!
Ich kann das immer wieder hören,denn alle 3Solisten sind heute Stars❤
Ich kann es mir gar nicht oft genug anhören - einfach wunderbar - einzigartig !
The most beautiful thing I've heard in a very long time. I feel asleep listening to this and I had beaufitul dreams!
So stelle ich mir den Himmel in Tönen vor! Und Jessye strahlt dabei so eine Energie aus - das ist unvergleichlich! WOW!
A golden voice has gone, the best voice ever !!!! Rest in peace we will miss you ...
Ни один звук не издаётся зря! Всё насыщенно тонкой музыкальной выразительностью и пропитанно грациозным величием!

I wish there were more recordings at a similar angle. It was amazing to see how relaxed her tongue is and exactly how she used the space in her mouth. Extremely helpful!
It’s lip-synched.
@@liedersanger1 It's overdubbed, not lip-synched.
Es geht nicht schöner... Danke, Jessye!!!
Zueignung is like opening the tiniest present at Christmas but despite its size it's your favorite gift!
I will continue to listen to her music as usual, may be more. I will miss you.

Grandiosa, unica per la voce, l'interpretazione, il portamento

Rest in peace my dear ❤️
The best Voice ever!!!
Anke Wunder And such a wondrous use of it.

Very well put !!!! You did a great description of the music and of the talent of J. Norman ...Thanks !!!

Could you explain this a bit more? What did ESH say to Caruso?

Wow. She's so stunning
Nagyon tetszik! Gyönyörűen énekel...
Ja, du weißt es, teure Seele,
