Holy, sweet, soothing, sorrowful, beautiful...qualities of MARY herself. Exquisite. The angels must have given Jessye Norman a standing ovation when she ascended.

I’ll never forget this woman’s performance at the Atlanta Olympics. Even someone who is not into opera, could be captivated by this woman’s voice. I used to work for the phone company, and was lucky to have her as one of my customers. She was just as gracious and beautiful speaking to me over the phone.
I had the honor of working with Ms. Norman's professor, Emily Remington. Knowing her gave me another honor of feelings upon hearing this great and talented virtuoso.🌹🌹❤️👍🏾🎶🗣️
The most moving Schubert piece sung by Jessye Norman, I am in tears, she is so gentle, sings beautifully (in German) better than any other I have heard, angelic Jessye Norman Rest in heavenly peace
@@paulsobu9084 Ave Maria! Jungfrau mild, Erhöre einer Jungfrau Flehen, Aus diesem Felsen starr und wild, Soll mein Gebet zu dir hin wehen. Wir schlafen sicher bis zum Morgen, Ob Menschen noch so grausam sind. O Jungfrau, sieh der Jungfrau Sorgen, O Mutter, hör ein bittend Kind! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Unbefleckt! Wenn wir auf diesen Fels hinsinken Zum Schlaf, und uns dein Schutz bedeckt. Wird weich der harte Fels uns dünken. Du lächelst, Rosendüfte wehen. In dieser dumpfen Felsenkluft, O Mutter, höre Kindes Flehen, O Jungfrau, eine Jungfrau ruft! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Reine Magd! Der Erde und der Luft Dämonen, Von deines Auges Huld verjagt, Sie können hier nicht bei uns wohnen, Wir woll'n uns still dem Schicksal beugen, Da uns dein heil'ger Trost anweht; Der Jungfrau wolle hold dich neigen, Dem Kind, das für den Vater fleht. Ave Maria!
Gracias, siento su paz y me siento físicamente muy molesta, su magnífica interpretación me permitiré traspasar el dolor💖🇦🇷🙌🙌 gracias x su comentario, me identifico , bendiciones
OMG, her voice is so gentle like velvet. She spreads peace, calm...the face expresion is inviting to listen, like saying hey I am singing for each and everyone of you. I just discovered her, she left a legacy of her beautiful voice . Rest in peace , beautiful lady.
Her wonderful Song, Ave Maria, is a Music lasting for Generation for, the Blessed Virgin Mother of Our Lord, she was there two thousand Years ago, she is there today, she will be there two thousand Years to come Music: Ave Maria will have no end
At 81, I thought I had seen and heard every rendition of Ave Maria, and here I happen on Ms. Jessye Norman singing such a beautiful interpretation of the most beautiful song ever composed and now, I can say, I heard them all. Bravo, Ms. Norman.
Cómo disfrutará María cuando escucha esta tremenda obra en su honor. Ella es nuestro puente seguro para alcanzar la salvación y llegar a la vida eterna prometida por Jesús con su resurrección.
Italian, German, English, French, ...she was so versatile and her fluency in those languages flawless. Arguably the greatest female opera singer in recorded history. God bless her.
Yes! God's gift to humanity!! I wonder if she ever sang in a cathedral like Notre Dame (translation "Our Lady"). She deserved such a setting like a diamond in its most finely wrought gold setting!! In fact with that diamond sparkle of near perfection, emotion, passion, yet softest gentlest tenderness... her voice was liquid GOLD!!!
Thank God we have her recordings for posterity. She always makes me feel as if I am ascending to a great height, getting out of my head and thoughts, and looking down on the beauty of God's creation and the glory of it all. Thank you for everything, Ms. Jessye Norman. God bless your soul.
I agree she never struck a wrong note in her life. I. Am her age .I first heard her when she was 24 she was singing leider recorded by deitchter gramaphone with a perfection hard to believe. The most unusual thing I ever heard her in was Bluebeard. What a voice what a technique

The only woman I've ever heard singing in German who could sound so beautiful. German is not a romantic language, but she sings with romance, style and grace. Rest in peace, beautiful lady. Thank you for supporting Augusta, Georgia.
Germans created romanticism together with the English William Blake. You don't find German language romantic either because you don't speak it or because you haven't listened to real singers like Ms Norman doing Schubert or many great masters. Learn.
Juan Díaz no actually Germans didn’t “create” romanticism. That was the English and the French. They did follow the tradition and was one of the last to keep it. Either way German has always sounded beautiful to me, in both songs and speech.
From the first exquisite, pure note of her "Ave Maria," Jessye Norman draws you into her world. Her passion and dedication to the art inspired so many of us to study music. We lost a national treasure today. Requiescat in pace, dear Jessye Norman.
Beyond any verbal description and coming from a Jew who has been going through this pandemic fearing for the health of his three bi-racial grandchildren since my beloved Catholic first-born daughter is married to an amazing African American man from South Georgia. May she rest in peace!!
When I was first introduced to opera I listened to Beverly Sills, Renee Fleming and Leontyne Price. Then I heard Jessye Norman. The layers in her voice and her perfect diction of every language...God knew what he was doing when he created this gift for us. RIP dear lady.
It brings me to copious tears for its sheer Perfection & Beauty ...this Voice of an Angel, Jessye Norman!! Her expressions, legato, tremolo, etc. were ...otherworldly ...Heavenly ...impossibly beautiful for this lowly earthly plane of existence ...She exalted the very s~p~a~c~e around her into Ethereal Perfection! ...She lifted you to another plane ...a Heavenly plane ...and helped the faltering soul believe in Eternity!!! P.s. ...I listened again ...and cried again & changed my mind ...Jessye's voice was not "near perfection"... She was PERFECTION!!!
She is with God. And, my friends, we must always pray for those who do not have hearts warmly beating like moments such as this. Never get distracted by those who are unkind but, rather plant seeds of love in their hearts. Eventually, some of those seeds may take root and that person will see things very differently from that moment on.
A mountain of talent, the voice of an angel, she was also the greatest vocalist ever to perform this beautiful piece of art. Over all of them who can sing the Ave Maria, Jessye Norman just conquered it. In Pace Resquiet Jessye 🌹
Потрясающее исполнение!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Голос!!!! Дикция!!!!! Аккомпанемент!!! Отношение!!!!!Великая Д.Норман! Царство ей Небесное. Наверное она там поет для Господа !
As I remember what she stood for with her angelic voice, I pray that the Lord will hold her in His arms forever to rest in peaceful sleep. God bless her life!
Dios, que perfección en la combinación de los diferentes matices y colores de su voz, para ofrecernos esta inigualable obra de arte musical ! Estoy como si el mundo se hubiese detenido en un lugar que fuera parecido al Edén !! Pellizquenme para saber que no estoy soñando y que estos susurros son reales !! Soprano : Dios te bendiga por ese portento de voz
Que Marie nous aide. Que son fils le VRAI ROI reprenne sa place et....merci pour ce bel hommage à la mère de tous les hommes. Merci pour ce chant de beauté et d Amour. Merci Belle Chanteuse pour votre interprétation.
This is for the first time I am listening to this GREAT and WONDERFUL voice, harmonious sounds, velvety and full of emotion. Amazing technique, as well. I am so impressed and happy that I discovered this magnificent operatic singer, even if she passed away. I will make sure I'll listen to other arias interpreted by her. R.I.P. , precious spirit and voice!!! 🙏🙏🙏
I was lucky to see her live in San Francisco at the Symphony Hall many years ago. She sang German poetry from Eichendorff, and, being German, it moved me so deeply, I cried uncontrollably throughout the entire concert. It was one of the highlights of my entire life!
Sublime sublime sublime. Somebody said that angels enjoy Mozart´s tunes while God enjoys Bach. I may add he enjoys the precious voice of Ms. Jessye Norman too.
Thanks for sharing....yes one of the greatest voices I have heard & a beautiful song...I have listened to her over many years as I am 79yrs old & remember her singing for many important occasions....RIP Jessie 😊❤️
I used to dislike hearing classical singing. Then 30 years ago I heard this and everything changed. Such a sublime voice. Thankyou for giving me such joy.
In tears... What an Angelic Voice... Usually i cry when i hear in Italian... Here... Oh No words! Abd dych a terrible lost... 74 years old. She could give us much more. Rest in Piece Dearest. 😢😢
About 7 or 8 years ago, I began trying to conform my every thought, feeling and action to God's definition of love. I tried to love properly. While I often failed, I also succeeded at times in ways that surprised even myself. I am no doubt a much better person for trying to love properly,which is a great result. The other result, which I never expected,vis that in a world of 8 billion people, I am, but for God, entirely alone with no end un sight. There maybe some that love me, but no one will spendtime with me unless I pay them, buy them something or do work for them.vIt is sosad and discouraging. Every night for all these years I have cried myself to sleep figuratively or literally. Every morning I wake up hoping that today is the day that I will meetmy husband, only to arrive at bedtime crying again. I pray that Jesus will end my suffering and if I must be here all alone for even one more day, that He will be merciful and take mehome to Him. Earth is no place to be alone. Please pray for me. Praise Jesus! Prayers.
I'm always brought to tears when I listen to her sing. Always! What a deeply tragic loss 😢. The Portrait-When I Am Laid In Earth (Purcell) is extremely powerful if anyone wants to give it a listen (you'll want to thank me later 👍🎵). To all of you and your loved ones....stay as safe as you can, keep hope and compassion alive, and please don't forget to do something wonderful just for you.
La eccellente interpretazione artistica della Norman, unita alla versione in tedesco del testo, conferiscono a un brano oltremodo famoso il tocco del sublime.
No matter who sings this song it adopts to all their voices yet is different I find from person to person yet each one's way and style or voice singing is is unique and special.
Perfection personified in her voice. The heavens sat in awe and observed the voice of emotions, existence and tranquility. Time and space sat still momentarily.
but this is not a catholic song. its scotts poem "lady of the lake" , loosly translated to german by a.stork and then put to songs by schubert. this song also is not really called "ave maria" but ellens dritter gesang (ellens thirds chant). it is true that the catholics adopted the music to their prair ave maria, but this is not the catholic version (and thus: not really the song "ave maria)
Simply beautiful. She sings like an angel . May she rest in peace knowing she has touched our hearts.
Yeah,that 's treu.👯♂️💕💖🕊🕊🕊

"For Your Deliverance
Compassion brims in our hearts, vast
Goodness incarnate, wrought in our noble forms
Unwavering in front of the strongest of gales
Remaining humble and calm when praised
For the sake of the earth’s people, we came
Yet most have forgotten they were once divine
The Creator hath laid forth a way back to Heaven
We herald the truth in these mad last days
And for this, we are persecuted
Danger shall not change our convictions
True faith fulfilled shall deliver us from darkness
2020
***
Your State of Mind in Troubled Times
Many wonder why this world is so troubled
Our woes stem from the absence of goodness
The godless shall perish at the End of Days
Modern thought and ways lead only to the Devil’s side
Man was not divinely made for such a dissolute life
But to await the God-given chance of return to heaven
The Creator turns the Falun out of immense grace
You came not to this earth for worldly wants
Distance yourself from China’s wicked Party
and its mad last throes, to be spared disaster
For surviving the judgment is all that matters
2020
***
Sweet Compassion
Standing upon the street corner, worry fills my soul
Catastrophe hangs overhead in these end times
Little direction do people have, so occupied with life
Dafa, the Great Way that saves, opens Heaven’s gates
What the leaflet in my hand conveys is true
I strive to help humanity at the Creator’s behest
Most lives in this world are higher beings incarnate
The doctrines of atheism and evolution bewitch men so
Modern thought and ways do harm unto oneself
These truthful words can bring health and salvation
A glint of mercy, a whiff of compassion sweet
in these troubled times
September 27, 2020"

Her Ave Maria brings tears to my eyes. Rest in Peace, Jessye.
Et si je n'étais venue au mode que pour ça, je ne le regretterai pas. Quel douceur pour l'âme. Quel repos de l'esprit. Merci
Голос как ручеёк: чистый, журчащий. Даже отрывистый, резкий немецкий язык не помешал. Браво! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Враво!
Но вживую, увы, этот великолепный голос уже не прозвучит!
Осенью позапрошлого года Джесси Норман не стало. 🙏
Maravillosa apreciación Bepa. Gracias 🌷
@@patriciaandrade9443 ¿QUIEN ES BEPA?
Madre mía. ¡Qué belleza de voz e interpretación! Estoy segura que su melodiosa voz llegó a los confines del Universo, cómo una invocación de amor.
JESSYE merci ❤️💞🙏merci pour la VIERGE MARIE merci pour cette sublime interprétation ! 💝
Jessye Norman is a queen. She is so regal, elegant and powerful.
Nobody can deny the talent and dedication to the craft, but NORMAN is a Jesse [sic] and a "queen"! #castrato

Que Marie nous aide. Que son fils le VRAI ROI reprenne sa place et....merci pour ce bel hommage à la mère de tous les hommes. Merci pour ce chant de beauté et d Amour. Merci Belle Chanteuse pour votre interprétation.
This is for the first time I am listening to this GREAT and WONDERFUL voice, harmonious sounds, velvety and full of emotion. Amazing technique, as well.
I am so impressed and happy that I discovered this magnificent operatic singer, even if she passed away. I will make sure I'll listen to other arias interpreted by her.
R.I.P. , precious spirit and voice!!!
🙏🙏🙏
Rest in heaven, She's from my hometown, Augusta Native.
Amen!
❤
Praise God for her superb gift. Peace and live and eternal gratitude to her soul. X
@@diggingdon linda.
Bonita vc e a música.
Ms. Norman was not only an outstanding artist but she was more importantly an outstanding human being. She is deeply missed!
I was lucky to see her live in San Francisco at the Symphony Hall many years ago. She sang German poetry from Eichendorff, and, being German, it moved me so deeply, I cried uncontrollably throughout the entire concert. It was one of the highlights of my entire life!
Brilliant pianist, too.
+Coco Chanelleke Actually, the pianist often played something at odds with the score.
+karlakor But from the heart, and perhaps a bit distracted if at all. Both she and Norman delivered a good, strong rendition anyway.
@@cocochanelleke The pianist is Elizabeth Cooper a very in demand pianist for both opera & ballet. Also does conducting.
@@cocochanelleke shes enthralled...i'll excuse it :)
So what is the guy there for? Is he like a copilot in case the pianist keels over?

She was and will remain in our hearts a genius singer forever!
Впервые слушаю эту певицу, как красиво....
Sublime sublime sublime. Somebody said that angels enjoy Mozart´s tunes while God enjoys Bach. I may add he enjoys the precious voice of Ms. Jessye Norman too.
i'll always remember you this way j n, my condolences to family and friends forever a fan
Ella es maravillosa...que emocionada me siento de oirla....
Thanks for sharing....yes one of the greatest voices I have heard & a beautiful song...I have listened to her over many years as I am 79yrs old & remember her singing for many important occasions....RIP Jessie 😊❤️
Never heard this in German! Magnificent! Jesse was absolutely DIVINE!
Goodnight and Farewell, my Lady. You sang with the voice of an angel. Now, you are with the angels in Heaven.
I love how in this recording the sound is slightly distorted- but her voice remains so pure sounding
God bless you!
Katie: ‘Distorted’ ? In what way? Perhaps your equipment is.
@@e.conboy4286 Your speakers probably aren't that great if you don't notice it.
@@e.conboy4286 no slight against the magnificent performance but the playback here is full of what is called “wow and flutter”.
何と言う声の響き、洗練された、透明感、奥の深さ、さりげな歌い方、歌に秘められた心の響き、、、、これ以上何お望めるのか！！！！！、晩年のジェシーの研ぎ澄まされた歌、ブラボ~~~、ありがとう。
I used to dislike hearing classical singing. Then 30 years ago I heard this and everything changed. Such a sublime voice. Thankyou for giving me such joy.
RIP - JESSYE NORMAN a great artist has gone...
We aren't of this world.May his soul rest in peace without second thought....
In tears... What an Angelic Voice... Usually i cry when i hear in Italian... Here... Oh No words!
Abd dych a terrible lost... 74 years old. She could give us much more. Rest in Piece Dearest. 😢😢
Her voice is so perfect for this song. I cry with Love.
a specialist in german singing...and such an angelical voice...perfect!
About 7 or 8 years ago, I began trying to conform my every thought, feeling and action to God's definition of love. I tried to love properly. While I often failed, I also succeeded at times in ways that surprised even
myself. I am no doubt a much better person for trying to love properly,which is a great result. The other result, which I never expected,vis that in a world of 8 billion people, I am, but for God, entirely alone with no end un sight. There maybe some that love me, but no one will spendtime with me unless I pay them, buy them something or do work for them.vIt is sosad and discouraging. Every night for all these years I have cried myself to sleep figuratively or literally. Every morning I wake up hoping that today is the day that I will meetmy husband, only to arrive at bedtime crying again. I pray that Jesus will end my suffering and if I must be here all alone for even one more day, that He will be merciful and take mehome to Him. Earth is no place to be alone. Please pray for me. Praise Jesus! Prayers.
Sending you love and prayers- you are not alone if you have God as a friend. And all of us out here who serve him are your friends too 😊
I'm always brought to tears when I listen to her sing. Always! What a deeply tragic loss 😢. The Portrait-When I Am Laid In Earth (Purcell) is extremely powerful if anyone wants to give it a listen (you'll want to thank me later 👍🎵). To all of you and your loved ones....stay as safe as you can, keep hope and compassion alive, and please don't forget to do something wonderful just for you.
Голос без единой погрешности!Удивительно просто поет,но как гениально!
She was a very beautiful singing voice to listen to,may she continue to rest in Eternal Peace🙏🏿🌹
Essa é uma das mais linda vozes incomparável nessa ave Maria, muito pura cantada com a alma que passa uma emoção para quem escuta.🙏
La eccellente interpretazione artistica della Norman, unita alla versione in tedesco del testo,
conferiscono a un brano oltremodo
famoso il tocco del sublime.
Acredito comletamente com a tua percepcao! Uma beleza extraordinaria! Sou Escoces! Abaixo Inglaterra!
No matter who sings this song it adopts to all their voices yet is different I find from person to person yet each one's way and style or voice singing is is unique and special.
Absolutely magnificent! I am just discovering this masterpiece in the latter months of 2023. Time to take a search engine journey to discover more!❤
This is what immortality sounds like.
Wow.
We can all hope.
oh my friend, i certainly hope you are right!!!
You said it all, mate.
RESPECT 1000 %
Не ожидала такого! Потрясающе! Великолепный голос певицы, которую слышу впервые. Спасибо за это! Браво!👏👏👏
Все же ожидал на латыни или хотя бы на испанском. Но поёт великолепно, похоже на немецком🙂
Raches father and father into my soul. Truely perfect diction.❤ Martha & Mary Idencital Twins 82 years.Still Young ❤.
Perfection personified in her voice. The heavens sat in awe and observed the voice of emotions, existence and tranquility. Time and space sat still momentarily.
Beautiful. I love prayerfully she sings this. Other versions make me feel like Im being yelled at
수백번 번 들어도 영감적인 노래 정말 감동의 눈물이 납니다, 창조주가 당신에게 소리를 잠시빌려 주었군요!!!
I’m not catholic but I love this song, in this and any other version, another remarkable voice goes up to heaven, rest peacefully.
but this is not a catholic song. its scotts poem "lady of the lake" , loosly translated to german by a.stork and then put to songs by schubert. this song also is not really called "ave maria" but ellens dritter gesang (ellens thirds chant). it is true that the catholics adopted the music to their prair ave maria, but this is not the catholic version (and thus: not really the song "ave maria)
