    ABOUT…
    I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
    Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

    The Lyrics to the Song.Its German .........Ich bitte, hier jetzt zu verweilen
    Franz Lehár
    Es lebt' eine Vilja, ein Waldmägdelein.
    Ein Jäger erschaut' sie im Felsengestein.
    Dem Burschen, dem wurde so eigen zu Sinn,
    Er schaute und schaut' auf das Waldmägdlein hin.
    Und ein nie gekannter Schauer
    Faßt' den jungen Jägersmann.
    Sehnsuchtsvoll
    Fing er still zu seufzen an:
    'Vilja, oh Vilja, du Waldmägdelein,
    Faß mich und laß mich dein Herzliebster sein!
    Vilja, oh Vilja, was tust du mir an!'
    Bang fleht ein liebkranker Mann.
    Das Waldmägdlein streckte die Hand nach ihm aus
    Und zog ihn hinein in ihr felsiges Haus.
    Dem Burschen die Sinne vergangen fast sind:
    So liebt und so küßt gar kein irdisches Kind!
    Als sie sich dann sattgeküßt,
    Verschwand sie zu derselben Frist.
    Einmal noch
    Hat der Arme sie gegrüßt.

    Long comment but here are the words in English:
    Composed: 1906
    Info:
    LYRICS:
    There once was a vilia, a witch of the wood,
    A hunter beheld her alone as she stood,
    The spell of her beauty upon him was laid,
    He look’d and he longed for the magical maid!
    For a sudden tremor ran,
    Right thro’ the love bewilder’d man,
    And he sigh’d as a hapless lover can.
    Vilia, O Vilia! The witch of the wood!
    Would I not die for you, dear, if I could?
    Vilia, O Vilia, my love and my bride!
    Softly and sadly he sigh’d
    Vilia, O Vilia! The witch of the wood!
    Would I not die for you, dear, if I could?
    Vilia, O Vilia, my love and my bride!
    Softly and sadly he sigh’d
    The wood maiden smiled, and no answer she gave,
    But beckon’d him into the shade of the cave;
    He never had known such rapturous bliss,
    No maiden of mortals so sweetly can kiss!
    As before her feet he lay,
    She vanish’d in the wood away,
    And he call’d vainly till his dying day!

There seems to be no limit to her range and skills, even when she sings in languages she doesn't know. Shes the ultimate professional yet always delivers a touching performance for her audience. I hope this programme gives her the recognition she deserves ❤

    In each show all the othe singers perform to a chosen singer. This week it was Henk Poort, an opera singer. She was unknown to most of the other singers and this was her first performance to blow them away.

  •  Год назад +5

    Fun fact: Floor was a huge fan of Henk Poort in her young age and had posters of him on her bedroom wall (rumors say) who in fact is a Dutch actor and singer, who mainly plays in operas and musicals - he was the "Phantom" for lots of years. In this show he became a hugh fan of Floor and her work with both Nightwish and her solo stuff.

    Floor sings in a metal band called Nightwish. She is classicaly trained ... but she can grunt and sing regular as well. Vilja is German and is written by Austrian/Hungarian composer Franz Lehár. The man in the audience is an opera singer as well, and his mother used to sing Vilja too. So Floors performance brought back memories of his mum.

    When I watched this clip and listened to the great RVA reaction, I was as amazed as (almost) everyone else who listened. Hearing Floor singing this aria in such an intimate setting, in front of some of the very best Dutch singers and a national TV audience, just confirmed how great she is and showed that she is still underappreciated and even unknown among those not clued in to the metal genre. So, I got on the TV network's web site, and watched the whole show. Even though it is all in Dutch, it gives a lot of context to Floor's performance. It also shows the enthusiastic response from her peers (who also sing very well later in the show). Floor's performance was first. The show is at:
    www.avrotros.nl/beste-zangers/gemist/detail/item/beste-zangers-aflevering-1-24-08-2019/
    Floor's pre-song interview starts at about 9:20, and the performance at about 11:00. If you have time, I think many will enjoy the entire 55-minute program.

    There are a few things in my life that make me so happy that they take me to this sort of zen mode where nothing can bother me and it's just bliss all over. Listening to Floor is one of them. Sure, she makes me feel so much that I usually end up crying my eyes out, not because of sadness but just the depth of the emotion in her voice, but it's still pure happiness. Can't wait for the new Nightwish album they're recording now and then the tour after!

      She has had 4 years of rock-academy education and 2 of those did she spend at the conservatory for studying opera. That is how she knows how to use these styles and techniques. But just opera could not hold her attention. I am sure a few of her teachers at the conservatory were sad about that.

    Vilja Lied English translation:
    But now let's do as we do at home
    Let's sing our ring dance rhyme
    About a fairy known whom
    at home we call Vilja!
    Once lived a Vilja, a maid of the woods,
    And hunter spotted her in rocky outcroppings!
    The young boy, who was
    Affected curiously by her presense,
    He looked and looked
    at the wood-maiden.
    And a shudder the boy had never known
    Took hold of him,
    Longingly he began quietly to sigh!
    Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
    Take me and let me
    be your dearest true love!
    Vilja, O Vilja what are you doing to me?
    Begs a lovesick man!
    The maid of the woods stretched
    her hand to him
    And pulled him into her rocky home.
    The boy nearly lost all his sense
    And so she loved him and kissed him as no earthly child.
    When she kissed him to his content
    She disappeared in an instant!
    The hunter waved goodbye only once before she vanished:
    Vilja, oh Vilja, you maid of the woods,
    Take me and let me
    be your dearest true love!
    Vilja, O Vilja what are you doing to me?
    Begs a lovesick man!

    "De Beste Zangers van Nederland" is a Dutch televisionprogram. The setting is quite simpel. 7 Dutch singers come together in a resort. All singers have a different musical background and this year it is the first time metal is in the show with Floor. Each episode there is another singer the centre of attention, this first episode it was Henk Poort, an opera- and musicalstar in the Netherlands. The other singers sing all a song that is on his (let's say) playlist. Eighter he did sing or write it himself eighter it is a song, that means a lot to him. In this episode all other singers did sing for him and Floor did this classical aria (The Vilja song is an aria from Franz Lehar) for him, but ofcourse, she changed it a bit, to show where she comes from. She sings it in German.
    it is a cosy setting, because the audience are just the host and the other singers. All singers sing with the same musicians and all is live performence. You could see the other singers were at least suprised, they didn't expect this at all.
    There will be an episode in wich Floor is the central guest and the other singers, including Henk Poort will do a song for Floor. That can be a Nightwishsong or After Forever or Revamp. But it can also be just a song that Floor covered before, like Heart's Alone or a song that means a lot to Floor.

    Thing with Floor is that she has been The Netherlands' best kept secret up until now. World famous in metal circles obviously as singer in the band Nightwish but terribly unknown in our (and her own) country. This show is finally giving her the exposure she deserves and will hopefully lead to more recognition of her amazing skills over here. Local girl from my hometown making it big, finally.

    This song, Vilja Lied ("Vilja Song"} is from a German operetta called "Die lustige Witwe" ("The Merry Widow). In the 2nd act, Hanna (a rich widow) entertains her guests and sings this aria about a forest fairy who enchants hunters.
    This, the first of 8 episodes of this season of the Dutch program "Beste Zangers" ("Best Singers"), features seven Dutch musical performers including an opera/musical theater singer (featured in this episode), several pop singers with various different styles, a RUclips cover artist and a certain queen of symphonic metal. In each episode at the end of the show, the featured singer being sung to picks their favorite performance.

    This is indeed from a Dutch show called Beste Zangers (best singers). Each season a couple of well known, sometimes less known, singers from the Netherlands fly off to Ibiza to record this programme. Each week one singer in particular is in the spotlight and the others sing a song from their repertoire. It is not a competition by any means.
    During this clip it was Henk Poort's week. As people have said, he is an opera singer. Each other singer besides him then performs a song in his repertoire (or a song that has a lot of meaning).
    Floor is of course a metal singer, so this aria was a mix of her musical style and the operatic style inherent of the song. Also, I believe this is the first time a metal singer is included in this programme, or on any other mainstream TV show in the Netherlands. As a country, the Netherlands barely recognises her metal musicians. The Dutch who don't listen to metal generally have never heard of Floor Jansen.
