I have tracked this piece over again for the last twenty years to every Utube posting I can find. This is my number one soprano aria and I've been a student of opera for 40 years. I am a tenor and this year will find the sheet music so that I can sing this just for myself as I love it. Ms Kavinski is the rank of the very best I've heard sing this aria, that includes any one you can find on Utube....anyone. What is her future after the service? She should be heard beyond this "happenstance" posting. Brava!!!!!
Her soprano is incomparable and exquisite . This song has something deep to soothe and warms . This song purifies the passions of a person with a wonderful masterpiece of melancholy and nostalgia .

With this level of intensity and soulfulness of her voice, no enemy in front of her can pick up a gun and fire a bullet ... she has the canon that melt everything that her voice can reach...
I can’t believe it I am actually getting chills listening to this rendition. I would have never thought it could sound so amazing without strings, but it the sound is so haunting, and yes I would very much like to hear more from her.
Wow! A first rate performance of one of the great arias and Susan Kavinski's singing of this piece right up there with my favorites by Frederica Von Stade and Leontyne Price.
I am so sorry to read your comment - though my circumstances were different, the outcome is the same. But we have our hearing, and isn't she magnificent!
I get goosebumps and tears in my eyes every time I listen to this piece of Dvorak as sung by the soprano Susan Kavinski. I wish I can congratulate you and the conductor myself. The sound is technically perfect too. I will look out for more music of Susan Kavinski as I am hooked on her voice - I hope you read the comments Susan.
"'Song to the Moon' is perhaps one of the most beautiful arias ever written for soprano voice." There's no "perhaps" about it. And she sang it beautifully.
Wow. You can hear so many interpretations of this (one of the most beautiful) opera aria. This is in any case one of the best if not the best of all. What of a great work of the orchestra and especally of Susan Kavinski including such a feeling and desire
That Susan and the Navy orchestra would think of themselves worthy of performing such a challenging selection as this is a definite tribute to their musical prowess. She does sing this extraordinarily well. To be able to render this kind of world class performance is just astounding--these people have this amazing talent yet sacrifice much to be in the service of their country. Very, very impressive. We do still have some in this country of whom we can be especially proud. Bravissimo Susan and orchestra!
1 ans après je réécoute Suzanne Kavinsky avec la même émotion qui me prend au plus profond de mon être. Au moment de quitter ce monde j'aimerais écouter une dernière fois cet aria sublime.
It's no crime, Ms. Struckmeyer! I was a Sea Chanter and toured as a soloist with the concert band and sang and performed so much more than my civilian colleagues ever did. And in so doing, I was able to bridge the divide between my training years and my professional free-lance years. This is a privilege.
Absolutely thrilling, goosebumps all through, the soprano is top class and the orchestration is both daring and interesting and the band delivers beautifully.
Absolut fantastische Stimme, eine wunderbare Arie und auch noch tschechisch gesungen. Die Sprache ist für Fremde sehr schwierig. Ein wunderbares Orchester. Vielen Dank für dieses Video.
Susan Kavinsky shows a surprisingly good pronunciation of Czech and the subtitles convey the very romantic character of the song. Beautiful arrangement and video production. Simply a wonderful find - the best I have seen so far on UA-cam... thank you.
How good is that? The USA Navy Band, simply brilliant & the incredible voice of Musician First Class Susan Kavinski. Enough to bring tears to any ones eyes through sheer delight.
searched this from bicentennial man, found lucia popp which was astonishing,searched for natalie dessay version couldnt find it, found this, even after several listens to other people, this still blew me away, magical.
Bravo , from Czechoslovakia , realy good , your articulate is good for us , not like Rene Fleming or another singer Choi Jung Won. Subtitle are good , because it have big idea.
Это просто бесконечно потрясающе. Великолепно - это лишь дешевое поклонение того, что я услышал. Это была просто магия голоса. Волшебство голоса. Очарование голоса. Звуки, сразившие меня наповал
I was moved to tears just listening to this song.This is her voice which fascinate me . This performance is exquisite and stupendous .Are you who watch this video a person of what country ? please tell me it
Is any more performance possible ? The best music which quivers the soul of person . What is the influence by which this masterpiece gave it to you ? Where is it excellent ? Please tell me the global assessment of this masterpiece and the country and the age of the audience .
Listening to her exquisite Soprano , I might have a dream of joy and sorrow of the falling in love with someone . That dream is the ultimate in bliss for me I just am intoxicated with her tip-top Soprano , From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵

Singing czech opera in czech language - very difficult. Bravo for Susan Kavinski :)
Wonderfully performed. She certainly seems to understand the language. Well done to all players, very sensitive touch and no strings.
I just stumbled across this video. Susan Kavinsky is outstanding.
She nailed it so beautifully. I have heard an angel sing.
I hope we hear more from this truly excellent singer!

As a member of the Marine base enlisted band, our duty was to promote and teach. She and the band is phenomenal.
AGREED

Wow! A first rate performance of one of the great arias and Susan Kavinski's singing of this piece right up there with my favorites by Frederica Von Stade and Leontyne Price.
Gorgeous voice, and great arrangement by Scott Silbert!
i think i like this arrangement more than the original,
She's very good. No superficial modification, an attempt to understand and reduce the song to its purest expression.
I much prefer this approach to the song.
I don't like the takes that overdo the glissandos and make a too mature sound.
Bravi tutti! What a beautiful voice and first oboist! So tasteful!!!!!
Beautiful, beautiful oh so very beautiful..admittedly I am NOT an Opera Buff but SO WHAT???..I can appreciate lovely singing voices.
As a former singer whose vocal chords were permanently damaged during an operation, this singer makes me weep.
I am so sorry to read your comment - though my circumstances were different, the outcome is the same. But we have our hearing, and isn't she magnificent!
I was mesmerized. She has a beautiful voice.

I´m proud of our musical heritage🇨🇿🎶Well done! Czech language is challenging and she has mastered it❤
"'Song to the Moon' is perhaps one of the most beautiful arias ever written for soprano voice." There's no "perhaps" about it. And she sang it beautifully.
Une soprano sublime, des musiciens merveilleux, une musique divine.
It is a good thing this is on UA-cam because it were a vinyl record, I would have played all the groves off by now.

This actually quite good. - Surprisingly good. Kudos to the U. S. Navy Band. And especially to the soloist Musician 1st Class Susan Kavinski.
Other than her incomparable soprano ,
there were no sopranos that conveyed the waves of excitement and impression to the depths of my soul . 🍎
1 ans après je réécoute Suzanne Kavinsky avec la même émotion qui me prend au plus profond de mon être.

Beautifully done! Have seen this with Rene Fleming and this is another beautifully sung performance!

Beautifully. Thx. 🤗🤗🤗
What a lovely performance. Very emotional and powerful
It's one of thing that makes me proud Czech. It's so nice to hear my language sung all over the world
That is one of the very finest sopranos I've ever heard in my life. Amazing on all levels.

I did not expect it would be that good. Very nice. Surprised...Thanks.
If the genius composer like Dvorak and the great performer did not exist in this world ,
what would this world be in anything dull ?
Absolutely beautiful

I would like to know who the singer was in the version played in Bicentennial Man. Anyone know?
@@stevev3664 not sure but i think it was the most famous one, ua-cam.com/video/4qxi-sYUT9s/v-deo.html&ab_channel=BazzasBest

Beside the gift of singing, one needs military discipline to achieve the art of singing on such high level. This is "Fabulous" ♥.
Thankyou from germany..
