- Russian baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky sings Valentin's aria from act II of Gounod's opera Faust. Find out more at www.roh.org.uk
Charles-François Gounod’s Faust was once one of the most famous and most performed of all operas: at Covent Garden it was heard every season between 1863 and 1911. Jules Barbier and Michel Carré’s libretto is a tale of romance, temptation, and the age-old battle between satanic powers and religion. It is based on Carré’s play Faust et Marguerite, which in turn is based on Part I of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s dramatic poem Faust, one of the great works of European literature.
David McVicar’s lavish production, first seen in 2004, sets the action in the Paris of Gounod’s later years, on the eve of the Franco-Prussian War. Charles Edwards’s designs include a memorable Cabaret d’Enfer and an impressive reconstruction of the Church of Saint-Séverin. They vividly convey the clash between religion and hedonistic entertainment, and provide a powerful backdrop to Gounod’s score. Faust contains much-loved musical highlights including the memorable Soldiers’ Chorus, Méphistophélès’s rowdy ‘Song of the Golden Calf’, and Marguerite’s Jewel Song with its dazzling coloratura. The opera’s final scene includes an impassioned trio between Faust, Marguerite and Méphistophélès, as Marguerite struggles to resist temptation and gain salvation.

Che perdita enorme per la lirica mondiale, voce prodigiosa, fascino innato!
Wonderful rendition of this aria. We have lost a great singer.
Liquid velvet pouring out of his mouth once again. He was unbelievable.
My favorite Baritone is Dmitri Hvorostovsky. RIP great artist.
i love anything he sing's.
Hvorostovsky had perfect tremolo and pitch for all of the music he performed. That is why there was, and always will be, ONE Hvorostovsky. R.I.P.
Oh yes no other!
I presume that you are not a singer. Tremolo is not a compliment for a singer. Perhaps you should have used the word vibrato.
In any case, he couldn’t sing in French.
Fantastic voice and breath
The great, the beautiful and irreplaceable Dmitri Hvorostovsky! ♥🌹
Bravissimo, per voce e presenza scenica. DMITRI sempre con noi.
What a magnificent voice he had, irreplaceable and much missed.
So sad, why would a merciful God deprive this beautiful man life. Not fair.
Ik houd enorm van zijn stem ,ik word er gelukkig van
One of the greatest singers of our time gone too soon. Love what he did with this aria....he skips the first high g and I thought "oh maybe he wasn't in good voice" but then I listened to the whole thing....
Yep, nails that A flat at the end 🥵🥵
C’est Dmitri qui dirige l’orchestre et pas l’inverse.Merci Dmitri tu nous manques !!!
Perhaps because the conductor couldn’t understand what language he was singing in
La merveileuse voix de bariton de Dimitri Hvorostovsky resonnera toujours dans nos coeurs malgrés sa disparition si précoce, et vivent tous ces enregistrements et concerts qu'ils nous a légués et qui continuent à nous emerveiller et nous offrir tant de joie et d'exaltation.Que cette priere de Valntin soit son apothéese!!!
Certainly one of the most beautiful voice in the operatic world . We will miss you very much. For those of us who were fortunate enough to hear you live we will forever have wonderful memories of your performances as Posa, Onegin, Valentin and so many other great roles you sang.
Powerful voice and confident stage presence. 😇
Ich liebe diese Valentin Arie ganz besonders, wenn Dima sie singt.
Ein Erlebnis.Danke.💖
VALENTIN
Avant de quitter ces lieux,
Sol natal de mes aïeux
A toi, seigneur et Roi des cieux
Ma sœur je confie,
Daigne de tout danger
Toujours, toujours la protéger
Cette sœur si cherie!
Délivré d'une triste pensée
J'irai chercher la gloire, la gloire au seins des ennemis,
Le premier, le plus brave au fort de la mêlée,
J'irai combattre pour mon pays.
Et si vers lui, Dieu me rappelle,
Je veillerai sur toi fidèle,
O Marguerite!
Avant de quitter ces lieux,
Sol natal de mes aïeux,
A toi, seigneur et Roi des cieux,
Ma sœur je confie!
O Roi des cieux, jette les yeux,
Protège Marguerite, Roi des cieux!
VALENTIN
Before I leave this town,
My forefathers' native place,
To you, Lord and King of Heaven,
Do I entrust my sister.
I beg you to defend her
From every peril,
My beloved sister.
Freed from this harrowing thought,
I shall seek glory in the enemy's ranks,
The first, the bravest, in the thick of the fray,
I shall go and fight for my country.
And if God should call me to his side,
I shall faithfully watch over you,
O Marguerite.
Before I leave,
O King of Heaven, hear my prayer
And defend Marguerite,
O King of Heaven.
I have this DVD among many featuring this brilliant baritone. My heart aches watching this knowing that he passed away too young. What a talent!!!!
Bethany, where did you get a DVD of this? Would love to have one!
@history history Ah - It's there! Thank you so, so much! :D
What a wonderful voice and presence... masterful breath control, lovely tone and emotion for me, especially as he’s singing about his sister (in the opera)
Your voice will always remain in us. RIP
Dima, I love you forever... RIP
A beautiful aria sung by a master.
Dmitri... Forever in our hearts! 😔❤️

Such Beauty. Rest in Power Dmitri Hvorostovsky!
My God, I missed that he died until i happened upon this video's comments. I once saw him play Onegin at the Chicago Lyric using a minimalist stage interpretation from the met. It was the best individual performance and the best overall opera I have ever seen. RIP.
@en pensée avec sa famille, il était extraordinaire en tant qu.artiste et également comme être humain . Une étoile parmi les étoiles
I love you dima forever....
Everything he sang turned out unique
RIPIP Rest in Peace in Paradise. Your voice lives on.
Thank you for this gift ! I remember this amazing moment... I cried ni the dark when I listened to him...
Great artist rare treasure
Magnificent. Forever missing him. RIP
Heartbroken , such a loss for us!
Extraordinaire ! Il faut que l’orchestre “suive”. ! Bravo pour l’éternité !
A real tragedy, but what beauty you have left us with! RIP.

Tako prekrasen glas skoda da zivi samo se na posnetkih in v nasem srcu,za zmeraj!
Wonderful!
A great one has gone. Sad, sad day.
I have not seen Faust in a long time, and did not know it was there. It is a beautiful song and of course sang beautifully.
Bravo.
Gone but not forgotten ...
May he rests in peace ❤️
merci pour la voix restante,
que le roi des cieux protège ton amour, comme tu veux
Such a great loss to opera. I will be thinking of him at CG tonight
Timothy Sole I
Great artist, we gonna miss you!
Emouvant, l'air de Valentin, je l'adore, et alors par Dmitri c'est à pleurer et il n'est plus parmi nous...
Please Dima give us a last encore 😥
A very wonderful bass/baritone.
Fly, fly, brave Warrior!!
Bravo Dima, bravo !
never was thdre a better singer
FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS - RIGHT.
We have lost a giant of the opera!!
Вечная память.
Best voice, I am so sorry
au Revoir Dima, Le roi des cieux, c'est toi!
Sadly missed. What an artist 😢😢😢
Precioso!
En toutes circonstances DIMI est merveilleux
Splendide baryton , voix égale, timbre bien posé et , fait notable pour un russe, chantant dans un français assez intelligible !une réelle perte pour le monde lyrique ...
Why didn't the royal opera make a DVD of this opera??????
Yes! Perhaps if enough people request it, they will.
Requiescat in pace, Mr. Hvorostovsky. You are now at peace in the heavenly court singing with your kindred: the angelic choirs.
He may be up above, but he he's no lowly choral singer...angelic or not.
Antes de partir... No, te seguiremos escuchando Dimitri
Meraviliosa 15/12/2021
Still very sad, I will be for long, long time.
Fantastic
Браво!
grandios!
Дима, Димочка светлая память.
He literally died on the same day they published this. Don't you think they could have said something along the lines of "Thank you Dmitri" in the description?
Of course they should! I KEEP claiming with all great italian teathers for not complaining about his early departure in his memory. I complained with San Carlo in Naples for not even mentioning his performance here as RIGOLETTO in 2013 on the occasion of Anna Netrebko's concert last 17th july. She too didn't even mention his name, considering HE sang with her on many important events. WHAT AN INGRATITUDE! Even this week in Ravello (Italy) during the Mariinsky concert I have tried to speak to the conductor Valery Gerghiev for a few words in Dima's memory BUT I have been stopped and not allowed to draw ner him, so as last attempt I wrote a note but I don't know if it has been given to him.What a pity!
The best Valentin!
I've got goosebumps
Simplemente maravillosa.!!!
