I find out today, décembre 2023 ,that Madame Jessie Norman left us in 2019. I was Lucy to hear and see her 3 times. She was fluent in French ,German ,and Italian.This Supra Intelligent Lady enlightened my Christmas Eves since childhood. This next Christmas eve ,she will be in my heart ❤
I’ll never forget this woman’s performance at the Atlanta Olympics. Even someone who is not into opera, could be captivated by this woman’s voice. I used to work for the phone company, and was lucky to have her as one of my customers. She was just as gracious and beautiful speaking to me over the phone.
I had the honor of working with Ms. Norman's professor, Emily Remington. Knowing her gave me another honor of feelings upon hearing this great and talented virtuoso.🌹🌹❤️👍🏾🎶🗣️
Gracias, siento su paz y me siento físicamente muy molesta, su magnífica interpretación me permitiré traspasar el dolor💖🇦🇷🙌🙌 gracias x su comentario, me identifico , bendiciones
The most moving Schubert piece sung by Jessye Norman, I am in tears, she is so gentle, sings beautifully (in German) better than any other I have heard, angelic Jessye Norman Rest in heavenly peace
@@paulsobu9084 Ave Maria! Jungfrau mild, Erhöre einer Jungfrau Flehen, Aus diesem Felsen starr und wild, Soll mein Gebet zu dir hin wehen. Wir schlafen sicher bis zum Morgen, Ob Menschen noch so grausam sind. O Jungfrau, sieh der Jungfrau Sorgen, O Mutter, hör ein bittend Kind! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Unbefleckt! Wenn wir auf diesen Fels hinsinken Zum Schlaf, und uns dein Schutz bedeckt. Wird weich der harte Fels uns dünken. Du lächelst, Rosendüfte wehen. In dieser dumpfen Felsenkluft, O Mutter, höre Kindes Flehen, O Jungfrau, eine Jungfrau ruft! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Reine Magd! Der Erde und der Luft Dämonen, Von deines Auges Huld verjagt, Sie können hier nicht bei uns wohnen, Wir woll'n uns still dem Schicksal beugen, Da uns dein heil'ger Trost anweht; Der Jungfrau wolle hold dich neigen, Dem Kind, das für den Vater fleht. Ave Maria!
Thank God we have her recordings for posterity. She always makes me feel as if I am ascending to a great height, getting out of my head and thoughts, and looking down on the beauty of God's creation and the glory of it all. Thank you for everything, Ms. Jessye Norman. God bless your soul.
Italian, German, English, French, ...she was so versatile and her fluency in those languages flawless. Arguably the greatest female opera singer in recorded history. God bless her.
Yes! God's gift to humanity!! I wonder if she ever sang in a cathedral like Notre Dame (translation "Our Lady"). She deserved such a setting like a diamond in its most finely wrought gold setting!! In fact with that diamond sparkle of near perfection, emotion, passion, yet softest gentlest tenderness... her voice was liquid GOLD!!!
At 81, I thought I had seen and heard every rendition of Ave Maria, and here I happen on Ms. Jessye Norman singing such a beautiful interpretation of the most beautiful song ever composed and now, I can say, I heard them all. Bravo, Ms. Norman.
Holy, sweet, soothing, sorrowful, beautiful...qualities of MARY herself. Exquisite. The angels must have given Jessye Norman a standing ovation when she ascended.

THEEEEE MOST BEAUTIFUL version ever!!!! Can you imagine what her voice sounds like now among the heavenly angels? I don't think we could bear the high emotions it would bring to our human hearts. So beautiful!😢
I agree she never struck a wrong note in her life. I. Am her age .I first heard her when she was 24 she was singing leider recorded by deitchter gramaphone with a perfection hard to believe. The most unusual thing I ever heard her in was Bluebeard. What a voice what a technique
OMG, her voice is so gentle like velvet. She spreads peace, calm...the face expresion is inviting to listen, like saying hey I am singing for each and everyone of you. I just discovered her, she left a legacy of her beautiful voice . Rest in peace , beautiful lady.
Her wonderful Song, Ave Maria, is a Music lasting for Generation for, the Blessed Virgin Mother of Our Lord, she was there two thousand Years ago, she is there today, she will be there two thousand Years to come Music: Ave Maria will have no end
Cómo disfrutará María cuando escucha esta tremenda obra en su honor. Ella es nuestro puente seguro para alcanzar la salvación y llegar a la vida eterna prometida por Jesús con su resurrección.

From the first exquisite, pure note of her "Ave Maria," Jessye Norman draws you into her world. Her passion and dedication to the art inspired so many of us to study music. We lost a national treasure today. Requiescat in pace, dear Jessye Norman.
Beyond any verbal description and coming from a Jew who has been going through this pandemic fearing for the health of his three bi-racial grandchildren since my beloved Catholic first-born daughter is married to an amazing African American man from South Georgia. May she rest in peace!!
The only woman I've ever heard singing in German who could sound so beautiful. German is not a romantic language, but she sings with romance, style and grace. Rest in peace, beautiful lady. Thank you for supporting Augusta, Georgia.
Germans created romanticism together with the English William Blake. You don't find German language romantic either because you don't speak it or because you haven't listened to real singers like Ms Norman doing Schubert or many great masters. Learn.
Juan Díaz no actually Germans didn’t “create” romanticism. That was the English and the French. They did follow the tradition and was one of the last to keep it. Either way German has always sounded beautiful to me, in both songs and speech.
It brings me to copious tears for its sheer Perfection & Beauty ...this Voice of an Angel, Jessye Norman!! Her expressions, legato, tremolo, etc. were ...otherworldly ...Heavenly ...impossibly beautiful for this lowly earthly plane of existence ...She exalted the very s~p~a~c~e around her into Ethereal Perfection! ...She lifted you to another plane ...a Heavenly plane ...and helped the faltering soul believe in Eternity!!! P.s. ...I listened again ...and cried again & changed my mind ...Jessye's voice was not "near perfection"... She was PERFECTION!!!
@@delasoul9416 There is always that 1/1,000,000 dissenter. But y-o-u will NOT be remembered. Jessye Norman will be remembered for Eternity in the Halls of Heaven as a 1/100,000,000 Voice of Grace & Beauty & Reverent Tenderness! ...A JEWEL in the Crown of our Blessed Savior, Jesus Christ and His Mother, Mary!!
A mountain of talent, the voice of an angel, she was also the greatest vocalist ever to perform this beautiful piece of art. Over all of them who can sing the Ave Maria, Jessye Norman just conquered it. In Pace Resquiet Jessye 🌹
She is with God. And, my friends, we must always pray for those who do not have hearts warmly beating like moments such as this. Never get distracted by those who are unkind but, rather plant seeds of love in their hearts. Eventually, some of those seeds may take root and that person will see things very differently from that moment on.
When I was first introduced to opera I listened to Beverly Sills, Renee Fleming and Leontyne Price. Then I heard Jessye Norman. The layers in her voice and her perfect diction of every language...God knew what he was doing when he created this gift for us. RIP dear lady.
As I remember what she stood for with her angelic voice, I pray that the Lord will hold her in His arms forever to rest in peaceful sleep. God bless her life!

Потрясающее исполнение!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Голос!!!! Дикция!!!!! Аккомпанемент!!! Отношение!!!!!Великая Д.Норман! Царство ей Небесное. Наверное она там поет для Господа !
No matter who sings this song it adopts to all their voices yet is different I find from person to person yet each one's way and style or voice singing is is unique and special.
I am shocked - is everybody in your mind who is German a Nazi? I am not. I am German and have nothing to do with Nazis, but love our music and language and I love everyone who interprets the incredible treasure of music in a beautiful way.
Dios, que perfección en la combinación de los diferentes matices y colores de su voz, para ofrecernos esta inigualable obra de arte musical ! Estoy como si el mundo se hubiese detenido en un lugar que fuera parecido al Edén !! Pellizquenme para saber que no estoy soñando y que estos susurros son reales !! Soprano : Dios te bendiga por ese portento de voz
I used to dislike hearing classical singing. Then 30 years ago I heard this and everything changed. Such a sublime voice. Thankyou for giving me such joy.
Voyage à travers le temps et l'espace avec la voix de Jessie Norman modulée parfaitement qui nous emmène dans une promenade élevante par la pensée par l'imaginaire et aussi un peu par l'âme... Merci! Très grande artiste qui nous fait oublier un instant l'éphémérité de notre existence par cet Ave Maria de Schubert qui traverse les siècles: AMEN; Marie
Some of the most beautiful, smooth legato singing I've ever heard came from Jessye Norman, and this performance is an example of that. Makes me melt every time!
It's all about the legato. When you hear it, you know. Strange how no one who has such flawless legato lacks any of the other vocal characteristics you want to hear. She vibrates it just as she wishes, and only when she wishes; then she puts that legato out without a flutter, even on the high notes. And you can understand every word.
It brings me to copious tears for its sheer Perfection & Beauty ...this Voice of an Angel, Jessye Norman!! Her expressions, legato, tremolo, etc. were ...otherworldly ...Heavenly ...impossibly beautiful for this lowly earthly plane of existence ...She exalted the very space around her into ethereal perfection! ...She lifted you to another plane ...a Heavenly plane ...and helped the faltering soul believe in eternity!!!
Simply beautiful. She sings like an angel . May she rest in peace knowing she has touched our hearts.

"For Your Deliverance
Compassion brims in our hearts, vast
Goodness incarnate, wrought in our noble forms
Unwavering in front of the strongest of gales
Remaining humble and calm when praised
For the sake of the earth’s people, we came
Yet most have forgotten they were once divine
The Creator hath laid forth a way back to Heaven
We herald the truth in these mad last days
And for this, we are persecuted
Danger shall not change our convictions
True faith fulfilled shall deliver us from darkness
2020
***
Your State of Mind in Troubled Times
Many wonder why this world is so troubled
Our woes stem from the absence of goodness
The godless shall perish at the End of Days
Modern thought and ways lead only to the Devil’s side
Man was not divinely made for such a dissolute life
But to await the God-given chance of return to heaven
The Creator turns the Falun out of immense grace
You came not to this earth for worldly wants
Distance yourself from China’s wicked Party
and its mad last throes, to be spared disaster
For surviving the judgment is all that matters
2020
***
Sweet Compassion
Standing upon the street corner, worry fills my soul
Catastrophe hangs overhead in these end times
Little direction do people have, so occupied with life
Dafa, the Great Way that saves, opens Heaven’s gates
What the leaflet in my hand conveys is true
I strive to help humanity at the Creator’s behest
Most lives in this world are higher beings incarnate
The doctrines of atheism and evolution bewitch men so
Modern thought and ways do harm unto oneself
These truthful words can bring health and salvation
A glint of mercy, a whiff of compassion sweet
in these troubled times
September 27, 2020"

The pianist is also playing with such deep emotions
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Voice of an Angel.
la voz de un angel
As I remember what she stood for with her angelic voice, I pray that the Lord will hold her in His arms forever to rest in peaceful sleep. God bless her life!
Grad entdeckt und gleich4 mal hintereinander angehört. Ich glaube das 10 mal anhören Depressionen verschwinden lassen. Bei mir wäre das sicher so.
Halelulia diese göttliche Stimme. Danke
Her Ave Maria brings tears to my eyes. Rest in Peace, Jessye.
Madre mía. ¡Qué belleza de voz e interpretación! Estoy segura que su melodiosa voz llegó a los confines del Universo, cómo una invocación de amor.
JESSYE merci ❤️💞🙏merci pour la VIERGE MARIE merci pour cette sublime interprétation ! 💝

Que Marie nous aide. Que son fils le VRAI ROI reprenne sa place et....merci pour ce bel hommage à la mère de tous les hommes. Merci pour ce chant de beauté et d Amour. Merci Belle Chanteuse pour votre interprétation.
Sublime sublime sublime. Somebody said that angels enjoy Mozart´s tunes while God enjoys Bach. I may add he enjoys the precious voice of Ms. Jessye Norman too.
RIP - JESSYE NORMAN a great artist has gone...
We aren't of this world.May his soul rest in peace without second thought....
Потрясающее исполнение!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Голос!!!! Дикция!!!!! Аккомпанемент!!! Отношение!!!!!Великая Д.Норман! Царство ей Небесное. Наверное она там поет для Господа !
Nice
Yes indeed she’s singing to the Lord. Perfectly. ❤
Божественно поет!!!
No matter who sings this song it adopts to all their voices yet is different I find from person to person yet each one's way and style or voice singing is is unique and special.
This is beautifully sung, and in perfect German too.
+John Kirk No she is not nazis
In very good German, not perfect.
I am shocked - is everybody in your mind who is German a Nazi? I am not. I am German and have nothing to do with Nazis, but love our music and language and I love everyone who interprets the incredible treasure of music in a beautiful way.
Maybe someone prefers Latin since they get used to hear this song sung by Latin.
Just explore this guy's internet presence on RUclips or Google+. Needs no further explaining. Don't waste a single thought.
Goodnight and Farewell, my Lady. You sang with the voice of an angel. Now, you are with the angels in Heaven.
Hervorragendes Stück von Schubert, gesungen von der wundervollen Jessye Norman. Ganz toll!
Голос как ручеёк: чистый, журчащий. Даже отрывистый, резкий немецкий язык не помешал. Браво! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Враво!
Но вживую, увы, этот великолепный голос уже не прозвучит!
Осенью позапрошлого года Джесси Норман не стало. 🙏
Maravillosa apreciación Bepa. Gracias 🌷

Dios, que perfección en la combinación de los diferentes matices y colores de su voz, para ofrecernos esta inigualable obra de arte musical !

Soprano : Dios te bendiga por ese portento de voz

hiperbole
@@osadoganador4375 hyperbole to you
...PERFECTION really to me!!
Her voice is so perfect for this song. I cry with Love.
I used to dislike hearing classical singing. Then 30 years ago I heard this and everything changed. Such a sublime voice. Thankyou for giving me such joy.
Merveilleuse Jessye Norman, l'émotion pure ... vous êtes toujours là .
I love how in this recording the sound is slightly distorted- but her voice remains so pure sounding
God bless you!
Katie: ‘Distorted’ ? In what way? Perhaps your equipment is.
@@e.conboy4286 Your speakers probably aren't that great if you don't notice it.
@@e.conboy4286 no slight against the magnificent performance but the playback here is full of what is called “wow and flutter”.
Впервые слушаю эту певицу, как красиво....
Голос без единой погрешности!Удивительно просто поет,но как гениально!
Graceful, elegant perfection. Electrifying.
i'll always remember you this way j n, my condolences to family and friends forever a fan

sublime meravigliosa hai una voce che tocca il cuore. grazie Jessye Norman
My heart is breaking over the news of her passing. What an inspiration, especially to African-Americans pursuing careers in Classical Music.
Voyage à travers le temps et l'espace avec la voix de Jessie Norman modulée parfaitement qui nous emmène dans une promenade élevante par la pensée par l'imaginaire et aussi un peu par l'âme... Merci! Très grande artiste qui nous fait oublier un instant l'éphémérité de notre existence par cet Ave Maria de Schubert qui traverse les siècles: AMEN; Marie
Dios mio te amamos, que regalo tan grande le diste a tu madre a través de esta bella cancion y de su magistral interprete
Some of the most beautiful, smooth legato singing I've ever heard came from Jessye Norman, and this performance is an example of that. Makes me melt every time!
It's all about the legato. When you hear it, you know. Strange how no one who has such flawless legato lacks any of the other vocal characteristics you want to hear. She vibrates it just as she wishes, and only when she wishes; then she puts that legato out without a flutter, even on the high notes. And you can understand every word.
It brings me to copious tears for its sheer Perfection & Beauty ...this Voice of an Angel, Jessye Norman!! Her expressions, legato, tremolo, etc. were ...otherworldly ...Heavenly ...impossibly beautiful for this lowly earthly plane of existence ...She exalted the very space around her into ethereal perfection! ...She lifted you to another plane ...a Heavenly plane ...and helped the faltering soul believe in eternity!!!
