@@javiervera2126 Jaroussky is very much criticized for doing chamber music. In my opinion he doesn't have balance in her registers as other countertenor may have. He is very uncomfortable singing this repertoire
Phrasé is very very important with this aria(I'm french and I listened carefully every word of the poem) and you did it great, your voice is gorgeous, that was awesome👏👏👏. Best wishes for your career!
Wow! I became misty-eyed listening to her: It had a solemnity I never heard before!!! Solemnity, in a love song? What is more solemn than that which ALWAYS changes lives?
Wow she hits the notes so well. She's on equal footing if not better than Susan Graham on this one. First time I've heard you sing. I feared pursuing a classical music career because I was mixed colour. But here I feel you represent the fearless and ingenious ones. Thankyou Matshikiza 💋🌟💛
Lovely message, the 'fearless and ingenious ones' yes, we all need to unlock our inner fearless and ingenious soul don't we? I think the world needs us too... never too late

Extraordinary. An angelic, delicate and gentle voice that fits perfectly with this poignant piece that met with great favor with the public of the French upper class of the Belle epòque.
This mélodie is clearly intended to be performed by a male singer, and not by a woman, as one may easily deduce from the words. That said, the singing in this performance, simply in terms of vocalism, is excellent.
Although I do know that your voices are very different, I hear colors and shading here that reminds me of the great Jessye Norman. Beautiful line, understated volume that exactly matches the mood of the song and a seamless quality to your voice. Now I long to hear you sing with a piano! Tant de mercis 💕
understated volume, I love that! yes!!! Jessye shades/colours yes some... agree... such clarity and nectar in this voice I love her face and eyes... so much warmth and expression, even a hint of vulnerability in that formidable talent
Heard "À Chloris" for the first time on the radio, about one year ago. It was an instrumental version (piano and oboe, performed by Kimiko Imani and Albrecht Mayer). Searched youtube for it. The third version I found was this one, and to the very day it's the best version I've heard - beautifully arranged and brilliantly sung by Pumeza Matshikiza. Thank you for this amazing "piece of music"! 🙏🏽
Such a beautiful voice singing one of the best classical - orchestral songs by Reynaldo Hahn. It brings tears to my eyes every time I play it. Love it and love your voice. Charles from Sydney, Australia
Нет слов Уважаемая Пумеза!, чтобы выразить мое бесконечное преклонение и мой бесконечный восторг!!! Вашим изумительным исполнением этой Божественной Музыки. There are no words, Dear Pumeza!, to express my endless admiration and my endless delight!!! Your amazing performance of this Divine Music.
Can the conductor please follow the singer? She's exquisite and gave him all the cues to rush the tempo. She was super clear with what she wanted with vibrato, dynamics and even her arms.
I agree and i've watched a couple of her interviews and seen a few of her videos on here . I can't think of any other way than just stopping and telling him , she gives him a sharp glance if you follow carefully , but as you so rightly put it.......she's exquisite , REALLY EXQUISITE .
I absolutely don't agree with you: She does not want the conductor to "speed up". She simply "conducts" in her way while singing, but this doesn't mean that she would want him to "speed up". To me "a wonderful piece of music", and thanks to all who enabled this!!!

I’m the singer in this instance and music spoke to me like this. I’m sure we different singers feel it differently. Thank you for your valuable input 👏🏾
A lot of work before to be a diva .. but she can pretend in a near future to be one of the most or even the most interesting South-African operatic soprano.
"But she can pretend.... to be?" Would love to understand what that statement means? Her voice is beautiful. To have come from a country where apartheid was a forced part of her childhood, yet accomplish what she has, is nothing short of remarkable. What a God-given gift!
A lovely song but why was it orchestrated; the Hahn original is so much more effective. There are other songs (from an album?) but they have not been "arranged"--so much the better. Alas like most singers who are not French trained the text goes by--a case of prima la musica.....The singer should have a great career as it is a beautiful voice and she has stage presence.
Just when I began to weep for this much beleaguered world along came this heavenly, angelic, stunningly beautiful voice.

The timbre of her voice is unbelievable.
The piano ( orchestral ) introduction with strong resemblance with the famous Bach " Air ".
PUMEZA MATSHIKIZA..... that means one of the best soprano voices in the entire world..... she is heaven sent.
Certainly the best version I have ever heard. Such a rich and powerful voice!
David Pentecost even better than jaroussky?
I absolutely agree. Excellent.
Well, I agree with David Pentecost that this woman's version is excellent, with a natural, unmannered expression.

Beautiful but a bit too operatic for a "mélodie française". My favourite is Patricia Petitbon.
revisit... comforting music (great orchestral transcription and the singer) as I am missing my wife... out of town for this week.
Pu.eza God is great. Remember why God Destroyed Sodom and Gamorah. The Book Of Leviticus 18: 20. With love Me.
Orquestração belíssima, e a voz dela é irretocável. Reynaldo Hahn é um compositor magnífico, que merecia maior atenção.

Such incredible color and expression. Brava! Love this with the orchestra, as well. Gorgeous. Reynaldo Hahn is one of my favorite French composers.
OMG!!! Whatta rendition of this!!! Rich and expressive voice!!!

Magnificent, extraordinary, unbelievable
The tone of her voice...
Me:
I like it it sounds good

bello...non avevo mai sentito una versione con orchestra...la voce è ricca, ambrata. Bello.
Beautiful conductor too of course! Divine timbre, divine orchestration... nectar for the soul

Excusez-moi, il se peut que vous ayez raison, mais j'ai beau écouter, je ne sens ni n'entends de décalage entre k'orchestre et la soliste.
@@patrickbailet8574 je pense vous avez raison! 👌🏼
im gonna have fhat played at my funeral, ok at moment but pumeza your voice is from heaven xxx
just amazing !! angel voice.Perfect. Thank ypu beautiful Pumeza ! From Brazil.
Magnifique! I love the color and tone here. Really expressive signing.,
Magnifique interprétation, c'est un vrai bijou!!
Le hautbois est sublime.
Tears.
This is the third version I have heard and it sounds so magical, it's probably my favourite version. Thank you so much for sharing.
Lovely performance. Thank you.
What a voice to dream from Chloris...
incomparable delicacy and beauty
Simply exquisite!
Lovely arrangement.
From first notes I’ve cried of happiness.❤️
WOW................
Mulher! Você canta muito, benção a Deus pelo seu dom! Parabéns!
Thank you!

Amazing!!!
Lovely voice and performance. I had not heard of her before. I thought that she was a mezzo from this recording, she must have a very broad range.
Потрясающе!
BRAVO
i love your voice. please continue making them
Thank you! I shall continue
Fantastic!!!
She reminds me of Susan Graham. Thank you for the music shared. Beautiful.
Her French is not as good as Susan Graham’s or Joyce DiDonato’s. Voice is great.

💜💙💞
Simplement beau.
Love the accomp. Oboe is the right instrument for sure. The original piano is great to. Simple. Anyone know who did this arrangement?
fantastic
Vraiment magnifique
Beautiful ❤
I want to see her Mimi at Teatro Alla Scala!

Magnific!!!!
Brava ...brava ...🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

bonito performance no obstante le falta brillo a la voz y belleza para interpretar esta pieza.

Qui a fait cet arrangement?
A lot of work before to be a diva .. but she can pretend in a near future to be one of the most or even the most interesting South-African operatic soprano.
Magic
"But she can pretend.... to be?" Would love to understand what that statement
means? Her voice is beautiful. To have come from a country where apartheid
was a forced part of her childhood, yet accomplish what she has, is nothing
short of remarkable. What a God-given gift!
Te lo pierdes!
Beautiful, but I would suggest to emphasize rubatos, especially at "que les rois mêmes"
Is this in E major?
Breona Leonard yeah
A little while ago I swore that I would never fall in love again. Im such a dick
A lovely song but why was it orchestrated; the Hahn original is so much more effective. There are other songs (from an album?) but they have not been "arranged"--so much the better.

Français épouvantable, la difficulté du lied comme de la mélodie c’est le texte! La voix est belle mais on ne comprend absolument rien, c’est dommage.
atlantyss75 je ne suis pas d'accord, certes il a quelques progrès à faire pour la langue de Molière (le "bien") mais c'est plein de sensibilité.
Es la peor versión de las que están en youtube
Catastrophe. Voix désagréable et orchestration digne d'un show france 2... Horrible
maravillosa...
