A rare venture out of her usual repertoire-very nicely done! She did sing Rossini as the La donna del lago in 69 and also as Anna Bolena!!!!. If anyone has Anna Bolena to upload- that would be a rare treasure indeed!!!
Every time I listen to Kiri sing this I feel the ache of emotion, and I don't even know what I am feeling exactly but the tears run down my face. The sound is beautiful and the passion is almost tangible.
Divine, but slightly too fast for my liking. Yes, I wish she'd done more bel canto too, but at least we have her Mozart and Strauss to bathe in!
the best version. bravo!
Though I'm not a fan of 'lyric' singers generally, one still has to accept beautiful singing.
I guess we're the only ones who caught that minor glitch. Good thing she got back on track. Still, it's a wonderful sound for this very beautiful piece! :)
Absolutely divine
elisarig. Kiri's personality and humility come across in her singing. She is a simple and also talented soul.
Kiri Te Kanawa es exquisita!!!!! Una de las grandes sopranos de todos los tiempos.
This is part of a wonderful concert available in full on DVD. Worth every penny--Kiri is the best there is!!!!
A gorgeous rendition of a beautiful aria - what a shame Dame Kiri never sang Giulietta or any bel canto on stage.
Actually she did. One of her earliest professional performances was Anna Bolena at the Camden Festival in London whilst barely out of opera studio. Late 1960s.
Emotion and technique, what else can we ask of a soprano, but to really, honestly sing? Dame Kiri Te Kanawa has gifted us that. Thank you Kiri!
listen to the Beverly Sills version...extraordinary! I am a big Te Kanawa fan as well :-)
She's the greatest soprano has ever lived.
jay agree
Totally agree 🌹 sad some people want to say negative things
She is and always will be!
it's almost too bad she was tagged as "only" mozartean. she sings lovely. or lovelily. or lovelililily. i agree with the slight breathiness at the end, but who cares? she kicks renée's butt any day.
amazing..I can't say any words
Simply superb! No costume, no set, no gestures: her voice did all the acting.
I am astounded at all the crap written for Kiri - She is a wonderful singer and I admire her for many years - I have most of her recordings.
One of the most beautiful, purist voices I've ever heard. I was so very fortunate to hear her in person, when I worked at the Met. But for me, no one touches Beverly Sills' version: ua-cam.com/video/bjPHcgzpfb4/v-deo.html
estaves la versión de una gran DIVA DIRÍA YO, solo la parte del aria, no el recitativo que se titula...Eccomi, estos recitativos en la época de Bellini, ya se unian a las arias y eran mucho más orquestados y más bonitos,tanto que a veces resulta difícil,cuando es el recitativo y cuando es el aria.Pondre alguna versión que sea ya de la misma OPERA.
best rendition of the song. hands down.
Beautiful song and her voice is amazing.
@montsyblackmadonna Only to someone with a limited knowledge and taste!!
Increiblemente buena. Fantastica tecnica!!! Gran interpretacion
A beautiful voice and excellent technique, but little understanding of how to sing bel canto.
I was gonna fight with you because I love Dame Te Kanawa but she did sound like she was singing Puccini instead of Bellini..
It is beautiful, while the interpretations of many esteemed bel canto experts are not, actually. Bel canto, yes, beautiful, no.
No one knows (and will never know) how Bellini intended his music to be sung (including this aria).
I have this concert on DVD.
What a 💎
gorgeous :)
Gracias por el video!.
Oh Dear, gokathyJ, who rattled your cage again? I DO come from outside of the UK and certainly did not employ the use sloppy English. Talking about attacking, you have to be the queen mother of attackers, are there no hobby shops where you live? Perhaps a peek into my comments might be a revelation to you to note that I have not mentioned our fabulous, talented Katherine Jenkins. You do have a coniferous forest growing on your shoulder about Kiri, did she refuse to sign your programme?
thanks to UA-cam my nicest days of living music come again
Gentelemen please!!!
This is not Football. There is no winner or looser and everyone has there own set of ears. I was in a Winter Reise von Schubert in the Getty Museum, where a well known Opera Tenor blasted it to hell, and everyone cheered because they thought it was good to sing Schubert like a Football fan! Even in this obvius case, it would be wrong of me toforce my judjement on everyone.
In the case of Callas...There´s not a female singer that I have more recordings of, and she will a
I don't think there is any dispute about her being sweet and gracious etc. But I have to say that I heard from a conductor that she once didn't know about a certain phrase as being sad or happy so she had to ask the condoctor! is that why in England she is almost being made fun of on TV shows etc?
I like her style personally as she has something to offer that is associated with her and I can identify it. Any singer who has something positive to be remembered with is great in my opinion.
Frankly, I'm astonished at several serious reactions. Comments like those of Piggyhashim (the nickname itself says enough) seem to me either expressly provocative or ignorant.- Dame Te Kanawa has indeed failed to thank me for something she have done, no doubt about it. The story is too long to tell here, I will gladly mail it to anyone who is interested. The fact is that it has hurt me, but I push that feeling under the table when I listen to her exquisite timbre.-
Thanks htshoward! I have sent her a reply to her English lesson that she gave me! Not a well woman at all!
@elisarig so what does that have to do with her singing? Last time I checked, most of us who have access to the internet live in free societies, where we can exercise freedom of expression. I love, adore, Kiri. Her voice, her poise, her personality, her Contessa, her Desdemona... delicious. However, I will express my opinion on her character whether it fits your friend or not. BTW: do not post anything negative about Iron Maiden: they are really nice guys. I know them personally.
LaBelleHelene, did you receive my reply? I'd like to know it, because I'm not sure if it was sent correctly, and I don't know when it's going to be be added to this forum.
This music doesn't quite suit her voice as well as Mozart and Strauss, or even Puccini. She never really had an intalianate sound or techniques for bel canto.
she messed up the words.
@Gobbi2007 Love the Maiden, love Kiri! What's to not love? It's all music! :D
@elisarig
è vero!!!
i cantanti hanno una caratteristica non comune ad altri: essi SONO LA LORO VOCE.
la voce di Kiri Te Kanawa è proprio lo specchio della persona da te descritta.
yeah.....okay
Actually, I think it's crappy compression high notes on UA-cam, not Kiri.
Em
this orchestra does not have good entonation, but Kiri is a goddess
Caballe isn't better, You like more.
Nobody is better than other
❤bravooo
@elisarig bonsoir, il suffit de l'écouter ou de la regarder pour voir toute les qualités decette dame
Fantastic really. Thanx so much.
Bellissima voce, che sarebbe piaciuta a Bellini!
As much as I love Te Kanawa, this is too fast and doesn't give enough time to caress the Bellini line. Listen to Sills...1968 with Jussi Jalas...that's how it goes. Perfection.
@ brolobear
The Beverly Sills - Jussi Jalas (1968) delivery is too slow. Furthermore, the excessive ornamentation destroys the flow of natural beauty and emotion. I`m not interested in such vocal acrobatics. In that case, "bel canto" is not beautiful.
Yes!
Horrid music,
sounds like elevator music !

Her voice can save a life... kia kaha, Kiri
se eqivoco en la letra!!!! al principio!!!!
Lovely.
thanks a lot for posting it!
Too bloody right!!!!!!!!!!
That´s right... hai ragione.
BRAVA!
brava
Brava.
A lot of people do deny it. Dame Snotti Te Kanablah has hurt many professionally.
You are hardly, dear elizabeth, in a postion to take the high moral ground. One may well ask why the opera psychotics are continually spamming and making person attacks o threads. It has gotten to the point where those posting threads featuring Jenkins have to disable comments. Recently, whole videos mocking Jenkins and Westenra have been posted. Has the opera community a score to settle with them?
Besides being seriously disturbed she has obviously been subjected to extremely traumatic "potty training". This normally results in irrepairable personality defects.
Gokathy. I have never attacked either Miss Jenkins or Miss Westentra. I did mention that the Jenkins people do criticize Kiri, for example say that "Kathy only sang with the old lady as she felt sorry for her". This seems to indicate the arrogance of the Jenkins people.
