Wow..... I have listened to this 100 times+ and will never get tired, passion, control excitement. This will draw everyone to opera for sure. Elina come to Ireland please
Oh my god. This is the most GORGEOUS and ADORABLE clip ever. Elina and Karel are both stunning as always but the way they work together is so cute and smart!
She speaks Latvian, German and English anyone know of any others? Must be difficult learning songs in a language you cannot speak; but then Elina is a remarkable person: Beautiful woman, beautiful voice, actress, linguist and she can handle the fame.
She speaks Latvian, Russian, German, English, Italian and Spanish. She also understands French quite well, but she said a while ago that she still has "a blockage", she called it, so she doesn't really speak it.
When Elina sings with her husband conducting, as in this video, she is obviously "firing on all cylinders" and he has to run to keep up as you can plainly see! This is what happens when a husband asks his wife to use all of her powerful voice. What a spectacular pair!
(Mezzo-soprano) (face-up as this is the feeling that seen for the first time) Chanson Boheme - Carmen - Erina Garanča really great singing ability Thank you! Mira (SGL)
Apologies to those I have foisted this upon before, but it is I think the hottest concert version of an operatic aria I have ever beheld. Bravissima Elina!
Sous le rythme de la chanson, ardentes, folles, enfiévrées, elles se laissaient, enivrées, emporter par le tourbillon! je ne me lasse pas de cette interprétation, un pur délice et une telle énergie!
Listened to the version by Ms. Jenkins... Then this. Off the iPod goes the Jenkins version and in comes THIS gem! (A gem sung by a REAL opera singer, mind you.) ;)
Comparing Elina and Katherine Jenkins is something like to compare Ferrari vs Fiat. Both are cars, both can be driven, both can even be red, but here the similarities are over. They simply are in absolutely different classes.
Este vídeo é sensacional sobre todos os aspectos. A beleza da canção,a beleza incomparável da Elina Garanca,etc. Sobretudo pelos gestos encantadores da Elina no " Grand finale." Vou ver de novo
Astonishing! This interpretation of Canson Boheme, because it is totally totally wild, really seized me! As much as I am surprised that the orchestra did not smashed their instruments on the floor and tore down the hall. And the singer did not biting the conductor at the end of concert. Heavy metal and other trash metals are a gentle "strum, strum" on the guitars in comparison with THIS Carmen. Real Hard Core! YOU ARE GREAT...
@steps222: Karel was born in London and yes Wiki say he is a Gibraltarian but Gibraltar is a British territory and has been under British rule since 1713. So his native tongue would be English. The Gibraltarians are self-governing but they still consider themselves British and the UN considers Gibraltar part of the South West England Constituency. Yes, he is married to Elina Garanca. Lucky guy.
@deridesa Wikipedia gives his name as Karel Mark Chichon. At the very beginning of the video, it's given differently, probably in French, or in his native tongue--he's from Gibralter. He's her hubby.
@LordHettrick We are indeed, which is why I saw fit to compare her with Katherine ^.^ She may not be an actual opera singer, but she sings the same material and I have a lot of respect for her :D
Completely wild Bizet? Yes! Why not? Of course if Elīna Garanča is singing. It really sound like the primitive tribe ritual or like the warriors song. Diva Elina! With full respect. You have got the fire inside yours eyes. You are not only the singer from opera. You are... Who? I don't know...
@dr1ks It's true! You probably know that he's her husband? I've heard her in the role live and did not get this much... fire, for lack of a more adequate word, from her. Trying to curb wild speculation. ;)
@bpetii1 I've always found Katherine to sing with plenty of emotion, but fair enough if you prefer Elina. I prefer Katherine's voice, as personal preference. I found her high notes good in the versions I've listened to - she hits them perfectly and doesn't struggle. I don't think Katherine needs to be an actual opera singer to sing an aria well - she sings the same songs but hasn't been in an opera. I've only really heard Elina a few times and mostly when dueting with Anna Netrebko.
Do you even have a clue what the words of these aria say? A "laid back approach"? Hello? It's not a random gypsy song, it's a aria sung by Carmen - a passionate vulgar gypsy, she sings this in a tavern with other people dancing. It talks about dancing that starts then gets faster, and then everyone joins, and gets passionate and hot and sweaty. "All hot and crazy, fevered, sweating, Laid back??? Intoxicated, they were letting The whirlwind carry them along!" The whirlwind carry them along!".
In my pervert lesbian mind She and Anna Netrebko are a cute couple! But I preffer Elina! *u* She is incredible! What kind of mezzosoprano is She? Lyric? :D I love her voice! :3
j'y connais rien en classique mais alors là, à 01:18 wow : j'arrive pas à y croire, elle chante sublimement bien et en plus elle est même pas grosse! XD XD
la verité en musique c est l'emotion!!!! pas d'emotion on s'emm....les critiques peuvent se tirer sur l elastique dans les emissions faites pour...seul l'emotion est vraie...La Letonne?..quand je la vois et quand je l ententend...j ai la chair de poule..!!
Wow..... I have listened to this 100 times+ and will never get tired, passion, control excitement. This will draw everyone to opera for sure. Elina come to Ireland please
this was more than electricity, this was more than chemistry. Bravo.
La Señora Garanca es extraordinaria;su dicción su hermosísima voz y su fuerza interpretativa la hacen única.
The kind of videos you want to show to all your friends saying '' look how it's amazing ''
I love the conductor's passion! He seems to feel the music running through his veins! uffff!
Oh my god. This is the most GORGEOUS and ADORABLE clip ever. Elina and Karel are both stunning as always but the way they work together is so cute and smart!
More than her wonderful voice, she catchs so well Carmen's character ... What a singer, whar a girl, what an actress :)!
She speaks Latvian, German and English anyone know of any others? Must be difficult learning songs in a language you cannot speak; but then Elina is a remarkable person: Beautiful woman, beautiful voice, actress, linguist and she can handle the fame.

+Oana Călinoiu Thank you, always nice to get a reply.
I love her interpretation, it's really powerful... as needed
And she's really beautiful as well
Conductor is magnifique!!!!!!
she is the epitomy of perfection
Wow!!!!! Absolute Perfection!!!!!!
Superb performance by her,,,,!!!! I love her lovely voice so much !!!!!
There's nothing like a good actress as well as a great singer. Brava!
When Elina sings with her husband conducting, as in this video, she is obviously "firing on all cylinders" and he has to run to keep up as you can plainly see! This is what happens when a husband asks his wife to use all of her powerful voice. What a spectacular pair!
what an unpleasantly patronising comment.
Juliet Stephens You have obviously never been married to a star! What do you think he was doing?
hahahahah...nice one John!! :)
I’m a man but who is the star here? Men can take the back seat when their wife is so talented without feeling inferior or being seen as.
@@julietstephens7742 What an unpleasant and miserable person you must be to live around!
(Mezzo-soprano) (face-up as this is the feeling that seen for the first time) Chanson Boheme - Carmen - Erina Garanča really great singing ability
Thank you!
Mira (SGL)
Apologies to those I have foisted this upon before, but it is I think the hottest concert version of an operatic aria I have ever beheld. Bravissima Elina!
She sings so fiercely here!
WOW - amazing, excellent, perfect ...
Heard her in Carmen at the Met last night. WOW!!!
She's magnificent, has it all -- voice, looks, temperament, acting.
She is incredible! Power, control, passion. Brava Elina!
ELENA is fab!!!! You all need to watch her sing Mon couer!
Can't wait to see the her sing the whole Carmen role, she's going to be stunning!
I saw her in Valencia last week. She is wonderful!
Elina Garanca and Nadia Krasteva might be the greatest mezzo-sopranos alive.
Admirable, GRANDIOSA!! El director de orquesta en fascinante sintonía
She is fantastic!
I am so totally in love with Elina Garanca !
Simply wonderful!
Yeahh, 50% of the impression is to look at her and conductor. Amazing!
Wonderfull, deepest and strength voice! She is genius!
I LOVE her intensity!!!!!!
Sous le rythme de la chanson,
ardentes, folles, enfiévrées,
elles se laissaient, enivrées,
emporter par le tourbillon!
je ne me lasse pas de cette interprétation, un pur délice et une telle énergie!
goosebumps every time I watch this!
A seductive, velvety voice, amazing beauty, charm, a natural manner. Stupendous!!!!
BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BRAVO!!

Listened to the version by Ms. Jenkins...

She's my greatest idol!!!!!!!!!!!
Superba!!!!Magnifica!!!Una vera Carmen!!

She's the best carmen in my heart
Magnificent!

Good grief, that is outstanding...
you're absolutely right!
Magníficaaa
magnificent!!
Optima Forma Wonderful And Beautiful Elina Garanca
well, he´s her husband. maybe in that moment he remembered how awesome she is and what a lucky bastard he is ^^
Bravo.!
OH MAN, she is the BOMB BABY!!!
@deridesa
Wikipedia gives his name as Karel Mark Chichon. At the very beginning of the video, it's given differently, probably in French, or in his native tongue--he's from Gibralter. He's her hubby.
You are correct - if Wikipedia is to be believed (as it presumably is in this instance).
@mkart9
Gananca is playing Carmen in NYC January! Wish I could go.
Une interprétation (d)étonnante.
Elle là vit vraiment , magnifique.
Bartòk you said? yes very good comparison!
Canta hermosisimo, aparte de su belleza inefable.
Supreme!
Powerful!!!
@LordHettrick We are indeed, which is why I saw fit to compare her with Katherine ^.^ She may not be an actual opera singer, but she sings the same material and I have a lot of respect for her :D
awwwww - esomeness!
Me too!
@pavane96 SO VERY WELL SAID!! Love her!
She will be the next Mezzo Anna Netrebko,combine her beuty and magnifcent voice
@Sapphire848 You must be joking. Katherine Jenkins??? I thought we were talking about serious singers...
I love this and she is great but her husband looks too funny conducting!
Is that her husband ?
@Hemmeditha That's her husband
je suis bien d'accord! ^^
She makes Bizet something "dirty" like a Bartòk precursor. GREAT
Completely wild Bizet? Yes! Why not? Of course if Elīna Garanča is singing. It really sound like the primitive tribe ritual or like the warriors song. Diva Elina! With full respect. You have got the fire inside yours eyes. You are not only the singer from opera. You are... Who? I don't know...
@lisamayavonB Hahaha so true! loved your comment
geniaaaaaaaaaaa
@noirplus: Meus agradecimenetos pelas postagens dos vídeos . Vielen Dank...
@AminaBellini me too
@dr1ks It's true! You probably know that he's her husband? I've heard her in the role live and did not get this much... fire, for lack of a more adequate word, from her. Trying to curb wild speculation. ;)
Ohh hahahaha.OMG i'm not the only one thinking that....I've always thought about that about Anna and Elina. :s hehe....
I think this conductor is her husband :)
@VIPoison270 yes :)
Huippu sopraano.
Cik viņi abi kopā ir labi!

Because he is her husband..understandable..

@Bunty1962 and then to Mexico please
@jetaimearln really???!!! wow!!! :-)

I think he's Karel Mark Chichon - her husband? Correct me if I'm wrong...
Why my comment disappear? I said the conductor is her fiancee or husband.
la verité en musique c est l'emotion!!!!
pas d'emotion on s'emm....les critiques peuvent se tirer sur l elastique dans les emissions faites pour...seul l'emotion est vraie...La Letonne?..quand je la vois et quand je l ententend...j ai la chair de poule..!!
what is she saying?
@perlypp Her husband :)
