The closeups of Jenny's re absolutely necessary here. This amount of no-nonsense, demure feminine allure, virtuosity and unadulterated sensuality is most disarming. She's a Goddess here. I won't even comment on her performance, for it goes without saying it is flawless.
Lyrics: Ombra mai fu Di vegetabile, Cara ed amabile, Soave più Ombra mai fu Di vegetabile, Cara ed amabile, Soave più Cara ed amabile Ombra mai fu Di vegetabile Cara ed amabile Soave più, soave piú Ooh De vegetabile Cara ed amabile Soave più, soave più
Winston L check out the civileso w/score . . . it's sung by Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, and it is just marginally better. I've listened to the tw o versions over and over. It's a difficult decision. Lorraine's entrance at the dolce is the essence of sweetness. It's so sweet it's almost sexually agonizing. Enjoy both - I do . . .
Sublime interprétation, voix divine, beauté resplendissante de Jennifer Larmore. On se dit que le Divin nous prodigue toute sa magnificence. En sommes nous dignes?
She seems the very representation of Gaia, mourning the senseless destruction and desecration of Life. Let us beware of the "real" Gaia's grief turned to anger against we who desecrate the Life dependant on her.
A Victorian rendering - but I love it! A beautiful voice and woman. As much as I respect the great Bartoli. she affects almost a contralto vibe in her version/
In the same league as those who post D-A*** comments. There are those who know nothing and those with no taste. They are often found together, commonly in the same person.
Reminescent of the Gheorghiu timbre, Jennifer's voice.... In this piece at least, her voice's notably more musical/appealing lthan other singers on UA-cam....But its quite an aesthetic stretch, that junkyard for the Handel piece, but redeemed by the lovely Handel notes and lovely Jennifer...
It is the very meaning of the aria: the mourning of Xerxes for a beautiful natural world laid waste by greed and war. The forest is gone, its shade and animals reduced to ugliness by waste and war. In such a place, where is shade or rest, fresh water or food? To paraphrase a Native American chief, "And when the rivers are all gone, will you then drink money?"
@@Penelope2024-qq4st 'Goosebumps" is a common English description of how the skin reacts to awesome sights or sounds. It is even a famous English series of books for children. In my opinion, therefore, the deficiency is in the translator, not the commentator.
I believe, Romina Basso in her prime and Jenny Larmore are two of the finest embodiments of Beauty and world-class singing skill. Their skills are matched by other world-class singers; their Beauty was matched and even slightly outdone by the likes of Grace Kelly, Christie Brinkley, Doutzen Kroes (ruined by her disgusting taste in men) - but the combination of the two is virtually unheard of.
The idea is the extreme contrast between the lyrics, referring to the shade of a beautiful tree, presumably in a sylvan setting, & this industrial wasteland, highlighting our poor stewardship of this world.
It is Xerxes' real heart in the aria: the heartbreak of a human being standing where a majestic tree once stood--a forest of them--now destroyed forever by human greed and war. It is an ode to beauty and sweetness murdered by avarice and cruelty--and a world turned to a "junkyard" by the violence and short-sightedness of corrupted humanity. Enough to make a statue weep...It is Xerxes' real heart in the aria: the heartbreak of a human being standing where a majestic tree once stood--a forest of them--now destroyed forever by human greed and war.

Recalls "Das Deutschlandlied." Composed by a saxon on an ancient near eastern theme, on Italian models, published in England, sung by an American in Germany. Such a pity about the fate of western civilization.
Beauty, brains, and musicality...the total package.
This is music at its absolute best. Heavenly!
The best rendition ever of this iconic music
One of.....only !
The best version of this well loved aria I've heard ; such vibrato !
Yes, such vibrato, so inappropriate for baroque. You might be referring to the trills I don't know.
Divine music, divine singing!
Her voice carries the aria with transcendent beauty - she looks amazing too!

Lovely! An angel singing that beautiful aria......! Bravo!
A beautiful song for the heart!
OMG. She is amazing. I absolutely love her voice and the way she interpreted this. Sigh.
Finally! A woman, with gorgeous vibrato! And trills. Even better than my cello.
Lots of operatic singers have beautiful vibrato.
So lovely. And the presentation is superb. Brava, Jennifer.
tender and beautiful Branches of my my beloved plain tree.... may Thunder, Lightning and Storm 🌀🌀🪐never disturb Your majestic Calm 💎💎
Beautiful beautiful rendition, thank you Jennie!
A performance for the ages; she teaches as she sings!
Fabulous performance.
This is music at its best. Heavenly!
Wundervoll! Dankeschön
I'm speechless! Beautiful! Thank you John Saunders!

The contrast of an industrial wasteland and her sensual beauty & gentle brown eyes . . .

아름다운 그녀~
For "Plain" read "Plane". Of all the versions I have tried this is the best.
Amazing and Divine George Friedrich Handel ❤😊
Beautiful
Super 👍
j'adore quand elle fait "cara ed amawawawawawabile" et que ça vibre beaucoup ^_^ 2:10
素晴らしい！！

Very interesting video. Commentary on our destruction of nature, perhaps?
如此美麗〜
Boom that is my aunt ( ͡°³ ͡°)
it's 'plane' tree not plain tree
like her voice overall, but sadly very restrained (?) is that the right word?
I know her sister. ☺️
10000000000000 times better than Bartoli's
Mister Iself Agree.
Less affected. warmer, more sincere.
It is the voice. Majestic and so warm. A true contralto.
PARA SER MEJOR QUE BARTOLI, NO HACE FALTA MUCHO. Y LARMORE, ES REALMENTE BUENA.
Why showing this junkyard? It does not match with this beautiful song. Even there is a reason, but never goes well. Krikor Vasken from L. A. CA.

Also sprach Germania
The voice is wonderful, but the stage design is bad and crazy.
Weird visuals given that this song is about a tree. Post-industrial dystopian images just don't do it for me.
