    Barbara is amazing- and so inspiring as a opera singer, conductor, actress, and woman.

    It is amazing to think that Berg's opera is almost 100 years old. How fortunate we are that Barbara Hannigan walks among us channeling Lulu--an operatic character that can be mentioned in the same breath as Carmen, Isolde, and Azucena, and not found wanting.

    An amazing insight into what it means to perform such a visceral role as Lulu - many thanks for uploading.

    Bravo, Barbara! I felt that you were the right Lulu since I saw you on UA-cam. I bought the opera at La Monnaie and since I saw you, I felt not disappointed. You are unbelievable good...and you dance pretty well (I prefer your voice...hehehe). I created a group on Facebook called Alban Berg with a French message. You are there many times. Thank you for singing so well. Thank you for liking Lulu.

    Barbara Hannigan is immensely talented, beautiful, and articulate, and by her own testimony, remarkably narcissistic. Clearly, like Lulu, Barbara is the center of her own universe.

    • @eclecticmuso
      @eclecticmuso 8 років тому +1

      +scmager There is a level of narcissism in most musicians you'll find, without it we'd completely lose our minds...

    • @scmager
      @scmager 8 років тому +3

      Of course, a degree of self-respect -- self-love, if you will -- is necessary to healthy human existence -- for everyone. The ideal is somewhere in the middle between the extremes of narcissism and mere self-preservation. What musicians really require is not narcissism, but a measure of self-absorption. Musicians must cultivate an inner life, which sometimes can be insular. It cannot be helped. And after all, selfLESSness, not selfishness, must be learned. But in the end, it is communal music-making that is most rewarding and satisfying, and this kind of musicianship, that strives after resonance and fruitful partnership, rarely flourishes with divas and prima donnas. It's like happy love-making -- it thrives on surrender and a joyful lack of self-consciousness. Stardom has no place in it.

      I think her narcissist and exhibitionist streaks actually serve her artistic expression well - they enable her to do interesting stuff. Also, she seems to go along well with her fellow musicians (mind, I merely conclude that from what I have seen on videos here, I may well be wrong about that particular point).

    Don't kill me for saying this, but when I clicked on this video, I thought she was going to talk about the horrible collaboration between Metallica and Lou Reed. After watching the first few seconds, now I feel like a dumbass.

    They put you through too much wearing points.

  • @orion8835

    Because your voice is a thin acidic howly high soprano. Lulu is an obnoxious and fascinating opera where the title role works having an obnoxious and irritating high voice and a body that can be convincing as a dancer. It can all be a lot of fun.

  • @ulrikjensen6841

    Why get angry with the imaginary fate of your voice, Barbara Hannigan? some singers get better and better with age - but I hope NOT that fräulein Lulu is a role model for you - it is not exactly a feminist opera! "Pandora´s box" the Wedekind play is called.
