Diana Damrau singing the 'Rejoice', from Händel's Messiah, in a benefic concert in 2002 with Zubin Mehta conducting. This video goes for DreiKnaben1, my #100 subscriber! ^^
I am not the biggest fan of Diana, HOWEVER.... her real joy while singing this made me smile from start to finish. Made my soggy rainy Christmas a bit brighter. Truly lovely.
3:21-3:23: The violinist has this satisfied, expectant look on his face like, "Sing it, sister" I love watching Diana sing as much as I love listening to her. She is so full of joy and so transported. Sure she has an earthly audience, but you know who she is really singing to. :)
Her voice is so clear, in every note. What a performance. Mehta, at last stayed at second level, what is not usual for him. Brava Damrau!!! You took this gentleman to his right place, tthat means: behind.
great show diana. Her accent floated back into german in places (e.g.: shout, Rejoice), but her EXCELLENT tone, articulation, and use of ornaments more than makes up for it. I daresay it even makes my complaint seem fussy.
My friend, who isn't even crazy about Damrau, has it. One weekend, when I was staying at his house, I spent the whole night watching and rewatching the DVD. I haven't seen it since! I remember the gleam in her eye and the way she turned around really quickly for the quick time with her knife. Yayayayy!
I really really really wanna hear her sing "Crude furie" or was it "Cr ude furie" from Serse... unfortunately I cannot telepathically let her know she needs to record it! lol.
Allererste Klasse. Und trotzdem finde ich, dass es eine Kleinigkeit zu langsam ist...... ein wenig schneller wäre optimal! Rein stimmlich jedoch echt perfekt!

You can never expect anything less from damrau, her performances are perfect.
Herrlich! Diese offensichtliche Freude am Singen nimmt auch den Zuhörer mit.
How it is obvious singing makes her feel some beauty pleasure
This is some of the best coloratura I have heard from her outside of Mozart.
Indeed Rejoice greatly! Look at her wonderful smile! Great! Love when preformers act in to what they are preforming.
Was i the only one unable to recognise her ...after that marvellous frightening Queen of the Night!!
This is beautiful, most of all because of the passion and conviction in the singing. She means every word!
magnificent conductor and singer.
I CAN'T WAIT!!! I am dying to see it!!!!!
Ebullient and splendid.
Just sublime, simply sublime. Bravo, Diana.

She's perfect, we know that! ;)
La escucho y la repito, y la repito, y la repito..
@paleryder2 No, it's from a Benefic concert in 2002. It's all in the info :)
bravo ^_^
que hermoso , por Dios
No hay como la música clásica
Diana Damrau, Zubin Metha, great instruments, great executors.... Doesn't lasts to have a magical music (forgetting Haendel...)?????
I really really really wanna hear her sing "Crude furie" or was it "Cr ude furie" from Serse... unfortunately I cannot telepathically let her know she needs to record it! lol.
I CAN'T believe you haven't seen it :| Don't you have the DVD?????! :O
can I get the entire video of this concert somewhere?
Is this from the Ioan Holender Farewell Concert?
Maybe my next video will be the 'Nur Stille, Stille', from the Covent Garden's production. You'll doubt there if she's an angel! LOL
1. Agreed!
2. Don't worry, and you are welcome :D
@jeihu1 You can't, it is not on sale.
@AsksOneThing Maybe on the eMule. Give it a try!
So true xDDDDDDD
You are welcome ^^
@Purpurina11 You're welcome :) Good luck in your exam!
I guess exodus was still thinking of the first part xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Hahaha...yes please ;-)
Oh, pity. That was my first thought. I'll think of something else, as you seem to want your friend alive.
No kidding :P
yap she is:)
You do know that this is Handel, right? ;)
Mit dieser Frisur sieht sie am besten aus ich liebe ihre blonden Haare und ihre kalkweiße Haut!!!
Please don't kill my friend and steal his DVD. But if you must, he lives in NY, upper east side.
Hmmm. I'll think of something. Give me some time.
Too expensive, and hard to find.
STEAL IT from your friend! lol Can't you buy it there?
