Natalie Dessay - Les oiseaux dans la charmille - Contes d'Hoffmann - Offenbach - 2005

Paris 2005 - James Conlon - Robert Carsen

[@lana_del_slay_tv]

In my opinion the best version of „les oiseaux dans la charmille“ perfect singing, perfect acting and perfect comedy

[@magalidamonte9113]

Havé you seen her performance a Orange ?

[@LisaIsabelle]

Never again this song will be performed to such level. The voice, the acting, the production. Everything was flawless!

[@mrbigbigtoe]

I prefer Luciana Serra, Sabine Devieilhe, and Diana Damrau first

[@janetflier6192]

Lisa Isabelle I agree with you!!

[@ushidanouchida]

You need to watch Patricia Janečková

[@Tina112084]

Uchida I was going to say that lol. Her version is incredible

[@LordMgls]

I just checked out Janečková to be sure I have it the benefit of doubt. I have no evidence about the acting since it would not be fair to compare with a concert version. As for the singing, overall very good - but not quite as this breath of fresh air from Dessay. As for the final high note, this one here really is the stuff of legend in the context of the 21st century.

[@torrellarobert7174]

Fantastique Nathalie elle a tout.. la voix mais aussi le sens de la comédie.. j'amais je n'en ai connu de semblable . Elle reste irremplaçable...

[@MsDefectiveToaster]

I can't believe she's moving around so much. I'm not an opera buff and I had never seen her before this but during the humping bit, she is really moving and still hit the pitch directly in the middle!

[@ireneday6865]

She is the most creative Opera singer I have ever seen. Humorous actress and singer.

[@timothybolshaw]

The great operatic stars combine excellent vocal technique and great acting. Natalie Dessay is simply one of the very best prima donnas of our time. You are correct that she shows great skill in being able to maintain the posture to sing correctly while making those exaggerated physical movements. This is as good as it gets.

[@catherinecourageux5386]

Je ne peux pas m'empêcher de revenir écouter cette vidéo régulièment : voix trop merveilleuse, mise en scène trop drôle. Merci Natalie Dessay d'avoir autant travaillé pour nous offrir ce magique moment. Je continue à vous poursuivre votre charmante interprétation des Eaux de Mars et votre feminité dans Nougaro spécialement Marilyn moins connue.
MILLE MERCIS

[@angeliquea9998]

Une incroyable performance ! Garder une voix aux accords parfaits avec de tels mouvements en continu relève d'un exploit impressionnant ! De la haute voltige en tout point !!! 👏😍

[@sophie.b7281]

Grandiose !!!!!!! 🥰

[@katiasanchez6110]

Merci beaucoup d'être réveiller. avec cette voix si enchanteresse ....

[@MoiraRussell]

That costume and the staging are outrageous. But she still sings through it like a champion angel.

[@surtr9728]

I agree that the staging is outrageous

[@WCaron23001]

It's supposed to be outrageous.

[@laurentgrenet7679]

Offenbach aurait adoré!😂

la meilleure des meilleures ❤ rien ne dépassera jamais cela 😂

[@ludovicpaste2969]

juste exceptionnelle drôlissime évidemment technique irréprochable et on sent qu'elle prend un plaisir indicible à faire exploser les codes en servant la partition à la lettre avec exigence ! qu'elle artiste

[@tomasdrake]

vocally stunning, visually hilarious, technically brilliant

[@giampaolorana7850]

Natalie est extraordinaire et aussi avec une "vis comique" . Belle et grande soprano. Une femme unique , je crois , elle est parfaite. Non mi stanco di ascoltarla

[@mogadeet6857]

That is so hilarious and brilliant. Thanks.

[@antiveduto6896]

Oltre ad essere un eccellente soprano, dev'essere una donna molto simpatica e spiritosa per interpretare il canto in modo così originale e goliardico!

[@jorgeandresossa]

Sorry but it was In 2000, And it was one of the last Olympias she made. And she was fantastic...:O

[@spamskanal]

and one of the funniest, too

[@minaly22]

All the notes were so powerful! This really was great.

[@mrbigbigtoe]

Why was it one of her last?

[@chivalrouslee]

@@minaly22 She paid a high price for that level of commitment and powerful acting. Soon her first cords surgery came.

[@modestavicentefuertes7005]

@@chivalrouslee that's because she was not a leggero soprano.She used to use a lot of effort to make that notes.Like Gruberova

[@tropicalstrings]

Overjoied to find this one back.
So much humor.

[@marie-danielledorin9853]

ouh la la !!! quelle voix et quelle drôlerie !!!!!Merci Natalie ...

[@solveigs4945]

Brillantissime. Tout est parfait : la voix, le jeu, la mise en scène.

[@MrAndromaque]

Une performance incroyable! Il n'est même pas possible de surmonter une seule soprano jusqu'à aujourd'hui! BRAVA Natalie!

[@steph1806able]

Lily Pons ou encore Mado Robin ça te parle ? Certes Nathalie Dessay est une très bonne soprano, mais n'arrivera jamais au niveau des 2 autres !

[@josepbernalporta9731]

​çpp😊ç😊çç

[@fuatonurbaglan9130]

I really like each and every performance of Natalie Dessay. Her singing and acting is really magnificent There was a more recent performance of her for Olympia but it was a different production. Her acting was even better. But now I cannot find that video here...

[@jml6757]

Excellent. Merci Natalie

[@katiasanchez6110]

Bravo magnifique !

[@danielevictoria5698]

Quelle voix!!! Quelle présence comique ! Absolument Superbe 👏👍🤗👌❤️🙋🙌

[@barigoulebarigoule]

Elle est geniale❤❤❤❤❤

[@aubreymeek]

She looks like Lady Gaga in this!

[@mrbigbigtoe]

Well, she looked like this before Lady Gaga even turned 16 lolz
So really, Lady Gaga looks like Natalie😂

[@AndrogyneMichinaga]

More similar to Madonna in her Jean Paul Gaultier pointed bustier costumes.

[@mrbigbigtoe]

AndrogyneMichinaga
Oddly enough I can agree with you too lol

[@Bhatt_Hole]

She does! And that's unfortunate. F that slimy biznitch!

[@trionabyrne217]

She looks like a porcelain bride.

[@jmurrayeire]

Talent Talent Talent Bravo

[@daugtherofthelord7354]

BRAVO
......But this looks like it was shot in 1965.

[@elizabethveron9542]

That's the year she was born

[@violet807]

1965 was never so suggestive! Had to be much later

[@mrturtle1128]

I know what you mean LOL

[@annasahlstrom6109]

Seriously amazing, obscene, and so very funny! Ms. Dessay's voice is exceptional. I got to visit the Paris Opera House when I was 10 and it was wonderful. I was wondering if the Phantom was home.

[@blackngoldcuttlefish3390]

Erikkkkkkk

[@alejandroespinoza7282]

génial Robert Carsen! Merci Carsen d'avoir su tirer la substantive moelle! de cet géniale opéra et quel talent Natalie ! Merci de votre génie! ça marche toujours depuis plus de 20 ans ces images sont essentielles pour la beauté de l'opéra

[@danilofedrighi5999]

Interpretation tout simplement géniale !

[@fbbomber]

Meravigliosa cantante e interprete di olympia

[@aileenteo7027]

Love this performance of Natalie Dessay here.

[@labrindille032.]

J'ai écouté Nathalie à l'Opéra de Vichy...
Elle est tout simplement EXTRAORDINAIRE...!!!

[@alissonoliveira7960]

This aria and "Fruhlingsstimmen waltz" are perfect for her light and high voice, not something so dramatic as "O zittre nitch" and the arias from Queen of The Night. Bravo, Dessay!

[@maryvonnemarie1840]

incroyable mise en scene !! quelle talent

Lo máximo Natalie..difícil de igualar..👏😄

[@mayerlychuvirugutierrez3622]

Bueno en mi opinión quien lo hace mejor es luciana serra es mas elegante

[@fernandorubio1519]

Inconmensurable, maravillosa y para mi la mejor versión de la Canción de Olimpia. Inmensa Natalie Dessay.

[@Chrisonum]

Una interpretación magnífica, como no podía ser de otra manera viniendo de Dessay. Pero en este caso la comicidad de la coreografía y la capacidad actoral dan como resultado un aria interesantísima. Brava Dessay! Une des meilleures sopranos de l'histoire.

[@vale86301]

Meravigliosa e simpaticissima!!!

[@chivalrouslee]

El control del escenario que tiene es INCREÍBLE. Además es increíble que ya habiendo sido operada (al menos) una vez de las cuerdas tenga este nivel vocal. Increíble.

[@daniel_5606]

Maestra

[@robert111k]

No me hagas mucho caso, pero creo que esta producción es de 2000, antes de las operaciones.

[@fredycastropinzon7342]

Lo qie quiere decir y conprobar que su tecnica vocal no fue muy bena a lo largo de su carrera o si no nunca le hubieran operado las cuerdas vocales

[@lindzramey]

Do you happen to have the entire production recorded? I would be very interested to see the whole thing. My husband was in this production.

[@jovi1715]

Dear Lindsey, I would be happy to share the complete video, but unfortunately the Opéra asked CZcams to delete it and then it disappeared from my channel (that excerpt is what I luckily obtained throu another source). I would suggest you to write to the Opéra of Paris and ask for a copy. Usually they always provide copy of videos to the artists involved in previous productions!

[@lindzramey]

Thank you! I will try that!

[@fuurinkazan8440]

Lindsey Ramey hey darling... would you please kindly give me a copy if you happen to have one? :( i really love this and i just discovered this beautiful flawless performance

[@mrbigbigtoe]

I have no idea what Natalie‘s vocal range is, but there is a high Ab6 in this performance that many people say she could not/would not attempt to hit after her vocal cord surgery in either 2004 or 2005

[@rossini9mozart10]

You're right, Dessay was still able to sing beautifully from 1990 To 2008-2010, after that her voice was not made for deepest roles so she stopped right there and she was right !
