Cathy Di-Zhang sings Aux langueurs d’Apollon | Platée by Rameau | PINCHGUT OPERA

With Pinchgut Opera’s film of our 2021 production of Platée now available to watch online on Pinchgut At Home, we wanted to give you a taste of what was in store when you watch! We hope you enjoy the inimitable Cathy-Di Zhang in her role as La Folie singing ‘Aux langueurs d’Apollon.’
The aria tells the story familiar to those who saw our production of The Loves of Apollo & Dafne IN 2021, about a certain vain god courting the love of the independent and fiery woman.
Platée by Rameau is now available to watch in the comfort of your own home through our streaming service, Pinchgut At Home.
Pinchgut Opera is Australia’s only company dedicated to presenting operatic masterpieces from the baroque period. We celebrate the beauty and the breadth of emotions through music and the human voice. Other companies do the more familiar operas and early music repertoire excellently; Pinchgut helps audiences discover something new.

Best aria in the opera! A rival for Patricia Petibon's and Mireille Delunsch's great interpretations of this crazy spoof of an aria. Bravo, Cathy!

Unbelievable. 100%. (and I never even heard her name, let alone her singing 🥴)

[@thesakefan]

Her singing is so out of tune!

Thank God I'm not the only one hearing this...
