  • Nicole Car sings 'Si, mi chiamano Mimì' from Puccini's opera La bohème. Find out more: www.roh.org.uk....
    Acclaimed director Richard Jones (Boris Godunov, Il trittico) directs a new production of Puccini’s La bohème. Irresistible in its witty, passionate blend of comedy and tragedy, the opera focusses on the lives of a group of young artists as they eke out an existence on the bohemian fringes of Paris. Jones brings his characteristically acute insight to this much-loved classic, visualized in Stewart Laing’s spectacular, stylized designs.
    Puccini’s romantic depiction of bohemian Paris, with wonderful music and a love story drawn from everyday life, has captivated audiences around the world, making La bohème one of the best-loved of all operas. It was first performed in Covent Garden in 1897 and has had more than five hundred performances here since.

    There are people watching this who have a tear in their eyes only a couple of times?!
    I'm smiling yet crying from second to second.
    Her recitative-acting is so heartbreakingly intense and yet so perfectly expressive of a woman's dreams and yearning for love and unity with another heart.
    Artistic and human and womanly perfection!
    Orchestral genius of course from the maestro of Milano.

    Sì, mi chiamano Mimì,
    ma il mio nome è Lucia.
    La storia mia è breve.
    A tela o a seta
    ricamo in casa e fuori...
    sono tranquilla e lieta
    ed è mio svago
    far gigli e rose.
    Mi piaccion gente che sogna,
    le cose gentili, il bianco e il rosso,
    parlar d'amor, di primavere,
    di sogni e di chimere,
    quelle cose che han poesia...
    Sì, mi chiamano Mimì,
    e perché non so.
    Sola, mi fo
    il pranzo da me stessa.
    Non vado sempre a messa,
    ma prego assai il Signore.
    Vivo sola, soletta,
    là in una bianca cameretta:
    guardo sui tetti e in cielo;
    ma quando vien lo sgelo
    il primo sole è mio
    il primo bacio dell'aprile è mio!
    Il primo sole è mio!
    Germoglia in un vaso una rosa...
    Foglia a foglia la spio!
    Cosi gentile il profumo d'un fiore!
    Ma i fior che cerco io,
    non l'ho trovato ancor!
    Pura come un angelo, Dio mi diè una figlia;
    sempre, vicino al desco
    di questa povera mamma, sorrise,
    e con l'angioletto a fianco
    soave dormire posso.
    Or son tranquilla; so che Licinius è giusto,
    e a Manlio dirò che deve
    ora e sempre rispettarmi...
    perchè io sono fedele,
    fedele alla mia terra,
    fedele al mio amore!

    I think there should be more filatos in those high notes, that’s the whole point of the piece. Mimì is a poor, docile and young woman, so singing should be felt much easier and simpler. Mirella Freni totally got its direction.

    • @orion8835
      @orion8835 5 років тому +5

      Laura C. --I agree she oversang the entire thing . Also her boyish tone throughout was not used to good effect here . At one point she seems devouring its absurd . She has little ambiance , death and dreaminess. It’s the usual over masked over hollow tone dross that plagues the opera scene at present . At one point she pulls in her dress and oversings the phrase coming OFF the entire apex. This is someone who thinks she is singing Donna Anna everywhere . Tiresome . But at least she was in tune and has tone . Yawn.

    Poor love song
    Because you're poor
    Do not know loneliness
    Come back with you
    The moonlight is pouring in the snowy alleyway.
    Is not it afraid to be poor?
    Two-point hitting
    The sound of the whistle of a crime prevention officer
    When I open my eyes, I hear a heavy machine rolling.
    I would have passed away because I was poor.
    I want to see your mother.
    After the house, there was one left
    I am also drawing a red wind gusto.
    The hotness of your lips that came to my ball
    My breath, whispering that I love you and love you
    Turn around and cry behind my back.
    Why do not you know that you are poor
    Because they are poor,
    That we should throw away all these things.
    A new breeder
    Practical literature, 1988

    Certainly not your conventional Mimì. Fantastic and very engaging!
    My only suggestion is that in the future Ms. Car will resist the temptation for "chiamano-ò-Ò-ÒÒ Mimì", which is a bit distracting and she did it quite a few times.

    I'm so confused seeing "Beautiful!" and ""What a voice!" in the comment section. Is this actually considered good singing? I don't want to be mean, it's not personal, but her high notes are thin and shrill and sometimes off key. Her general tone is not solid, it's collapsed. Her low notes are almost non-existent. It is not pleasant to listen to.

      I know what you mean, just give these young singers a chance. Perhaps the opera industries lately can't introduce great voices like in the past (especially dramatic voices) because they have pushed these young singers to perform too early. I think they should train a couple more years, unless possessing gifted voices, please don't be too harsh!

    • @noahburns3609
      @noahburns3609 4 роки тому +5

      @@derek2365 I agree. I don't blame her. I blame a vocal training system that seems to have gone off the rails. My comment above goes to why I think that's so: people, apparently management and critics as well, listen to a voice like this and don't hear a singer with potential but a series of flaws, they hear a more or less finished product. Or, "that's just her voice." Or if they do hear flaws, they evidently don't know how to correct them, as her sound is ubiquitous these days. Even in terms of lyric voices, when was the last time we had a lyric voice as evenly, beautifully, and firmly produced as Rethberg, Norena, Farrar, Lehmann, Schumann, Easton etc.. It's been a few decades, at least. I think either people have lost the discernment as to what great voices are, or they've lost the knowledge of how to make them and have changed taste out of necessity. I also agree that they need more time to develop. But wrong training over a longer time won't produce great singers either. So first we need to reset and try and discover what it was that produced the great singers of the past and try to imitate it. Then set up a system in which singers can take their time being properly trained. But that won't happen if we don't admit there's a serious problem.
