She was ROBBED. I have watched Cardiff every year since 1997, and rarely have heard/seen such effortless, regal, engaged singing. J'nai should have won the top prize - she is an extraordinary artist and is destined for a very important career.
2751mid She's making her Met debut this week. Many great artist have lost competitions. And 10 years later they are great international STARS. She's absolutely wonderful with that Haunting Primal Timbre. Love her low notes. Arnold Bourbon Amaral Music without boundaries 🌏🌍🌎📖🎹🎻🎼💙
Wonderful performance and interpretation. As a french, i can say the restitution of this french text is amazing : perfectly convincing ! Bravo, Madame !
That was the first thing I noticed. Rarely do we hear young singers singing French so well, and to add that to her beautiful voice, is only a plus. Brava.
Her phrasing is remarkably measured. Then that note at the end: full of passion. I love her voice and what she does with it. I want to buy her CD and can't wait till she sings Delilah. Bravo!!!
I got here by way of an interview with Buzzfeed that she did, and I'm glad I did. I sure loved this performance, and I hope that if I am ever able to go to an opera again, that it will be one with this supremely talented gal. Brava!
O ma lyre immortelle, Qui dans les tristes jours A tous mes maux fidèle Les consolait toujours! En vain ton doux murmure Veut m'aider à souffrir, Non, tu ne peux guérir Ma dernière blessure; Ma blessure est au coeur Seul le trépas peut finir ma douleur. Adieu, flambeau du monde, Descends au sein des flots, Moi, je descends sous l'onde, Dans l'Eternel repos. Le jour qui doit éclore, Phaon, luira pour toi, Mais, sans penser à moi, Tu reverras l'aurore. Ouvre-toi gouffre amer Je vais dormir pour toujours dans la mer.
The singing is indeed first rate; the acting. . .? It's good enough. The staging?! For God's sake, save us from these regietheater abominations who think that they actually know better than the composer Will opera ever recover its sanity?

2751mid definitely, and the commentator' s ignorant comments infuriated me. I can't remember her name. She's popular in Europe. Mary something...

@@arnoldamaral7406 is right. Remember when Terfel lost to Hvorostovsky?
It’s not going to make a difference in her career, she is a great talent. Competitions have been won by singers whose careers don’t last 3 years!
Now THAT'S a SUPERSTAR VOICE.

Exceptional Singer. Excellent French with emotion. BRAVA Joana.
I concur her French is excellent. Was able to understand clearlyevery word she was singing and it was matching her emotions. Outstanding performance.

So far I've been this much mesmerized by only one rendition of this aria. It was Rita Gorr. Now I have this. What a treat!
Magnificent voice and star quality as well👏👏👏
What a wonderful voice - and a superb set of lungs to get away with singing it quite that slowly! Reminiscient of Shirley Verrett :-)
Magnifique magnifique ❤❤❤❤❤
