These songs are traditional folks songs that were not written for a classically trained voice, and that is what is so awesome about her performance. She does not overpower these songs, she brings out the beauty in them! The orchestra is wonderful as well. Every note, every nuance of emotion is expressed so wonderfully. Just gorgeous!
One of the most beautiful vocal performances I have ever heard! She is flawless! Amazing how she absolutely fills the auditorium with the power and passion in her voice.
To use her great vocal technique and vocal gift and deliver it with these stylistic influences is, indeed, a rare gift for the listener. Thank you, Ms. Fleming.
Thanks mapaford, I can't wait for your postings. I just subscribed to your group! And yes, those high notes are extremely exquisite. ahhhhh..... tnx again!
Thanks for posting. Incredibly GORGEOUS rendition! Truly love her double cream voice. I have never heard her sing this before - what a delightful surprise! Do you have more of her "undiscovered" arias?
Hi asdfopera, I wonder if you have the recording of her performing these songs in 2009? If yes, could you do us all a huge favour and share it on youtube please? :)
I am captivated!!! I sang this song many years ago and NEVER found a recording like this!!! It is simply divine!!! I love it!

I really think this was Renée's prime -- her best year of singing.
HERMOSAS CANCIONES.
It's exactly same arrangement with the version from the album of Lee Ritenour and Dave Grusin, Two Worlds (2000, Decca) :)
No worries, I'll be patient... Thanks!

Nice if I could understand what she was singing.
Who gives a shit?!
Does anyone know who the arranger is for this piece?
according to the discogs page for the album the recording is from, dave grusin arranged this version.
Who did these arrangements?
I hope I'm not too late: it's from the Two Worlds album, by Dave Grusin & Lee Ritenour. A masterpiece
