Thank yooooouuu! I am so excited as you can see lol... i’ve been studying it for over a month now, hopefully to sing it in a gala concert. I love your interpretation, so relevant! & definitely definitely the great Elena was the best in my opinion 😍 Thank you again for your consistent effort🌻
Strange that no one mentioned here the Italian Fedora Barbieri (1920-2003) who was by many (insiders) considered as one of the most sensational examples. Including the impressive chest voice. "The best" is not always the most attractive one, or the most sensational. !
If you wish more sensational firework, listen to the Mexican mezzo Oralia Dominguez (1927-2013) on youtube (This is opera archive). A most remarkable mezzo, sang with Callas .
Acerba voluttà, dolce turtura, lentissima agonia, rapida offesa, vampa, gelo, tremor, smania, paura, ad amoroso sen torna l'attesa! Ogni eco, ogni ombra nella notte incesa contro la impaziente alma congiura: fra dubbiezza e disio tutta sospesa, l'eternità nell'attimo misura… Verrà? m'oblia? s'affretta? o pur si pente? Ecco, egli giunge! No, del fiume è il verso, misto al sospir d'un arbore dormente… O vagabonda stella d'Oriente, non tramontar: sorridi all'universo, e s'egli non mente, scorta il mio amor!
Thank you for posting the lyrics. This aria sounds so dramatic and beautiful when sung by an actual mezzo-soprano (i.e. not just a piano). Those last few bars (from "O vagabonda stella d'oriente" to "scorta il mio amor") always give me goose bumps when I hear Giuletta Simionato sing them. They soung magnificent!
Grazie per il suo lavoro💖
Thank you for your beautiful accompaniments--always stellar! So helpful for all of us singers! Stay safe!
AAAAAAAAAA I just got goosebumps EVERYWHERE when you mentioned the absolute Queen of Dramatic Mezzos, Elena Obraztsova... No equals.
Iryna beautiful as always...don't forget durch die walder from freischutz..hugs and brava as always...
Grazie 💖

Wanderfull. Amazing and perfect pianist.
I love all your posts! For me, in this aria I like Elena of course, and Fiorenza Cossotto!
Brava,come sempre!

Thank you so much!!! I also love Elena‘s version as well as Dolora‘s. Could you please play Frickas „aria“ Wo in Bergen Du Dich birgst from Walküre?
Hello Madame, could please perform Printemps qui commence?
Anita Rachvelishvili sings this piece so well!
Acerba voluttà, dolce turtura,
lentissima agonia, rapida offesa,
vampa, gelo, tremor, smania, paura,
ad amoroso sen torna l'attesa!
Ogni eco, ogni ombra nella notte incesa
contro la impaziente alma congiura:
fra dubbiezza e disio tutta sospesa,
l'eternità nell'attimo misura…
Verrà? m'oblia? s'affretta? o pur si pente?
Ecco, egli giunge!
No, del fiume è il verso,
misto al sospir d'un arbore dormente…
O vagabonda stella d'Oriente,
non tramontar: sorridi all'universo,
e s'egli non mente, scorta il mio amor!

The young Scotto
Giulietta Simionato
Yes, absolutely! Her voice was magnificent singing this aria.
Se echa de menos respirar entre frases para que de tiempo al cantante. Por lo demás, muy bien y gracias
