What a voice of velvet! Wonderful! And a touching interpretation, she is an ideal cast!
The soprano's voice is very well suited to this and, to my ear at least, it seems like the right vocal quality and tone for this work. I really like the way the singer uses light and shade, and really gives us a full range of colours. From 01:51 leading up to 02:14 is exquisite.
How can I have missed that voice during all these years !!! Such an underrated and unmediatized artist !
In Munich, she is not underrated, I saw her in several roles at Bavarian State Opera and she was wonderful each time. Once I met her at the stage door after the show. She is such a friendly person!
She's marvelous. Great in Verdi too. Saw her as Elisabetta in Don Carlo.
I listen to this often; technically sooooo good ánd it moves me which is a rare combination.
You have truly been given an incredible gift from God. As the world goes crazy it is a blessing to hear this and remember the Almighty is ever present. Thank you my soul needed this today. God bless!
My life is much better since I have discovered your wonderful voice and singing! Thank you so much for making your gifts available for all of us!
You are a beautiful artist! Wonderful! ❤❤
LUNDISSIMO!!! BRAVO!!!
This brings back wonderful memories of when I was soprano soloist for the entire works of Elijah...back in the day! But...this is the first time I ever heard He ye, Israel sung in German! Brava!!
That is wonderful that you were able to sing it as well! It is a gorgeous piece!

STUPENDA DIVA MERAVIGLIOSA BELLISSIMA DONNA VOCE BELLISSIMA BEL CANTOSALUTI DALLA POLONIA
Magnifique! Since i have seen and heard you in Les Huguenots at Grand Théâtre de Genève, what a stunning performance, i am a real fan. I wish that we can appreciate your art very soon again...
Es esta una versión impresionante, entre las más bellas que he oído de esta aria, queppe cierto es alucinantemente inspirada.
Pero, pero, lo que vos hacés cantando aquí es de una unción, clase, calidad, belleza y sobre todo entrega superlativa.
Hay algo en tu voz cantando esto que es conmovedor. Es estremecedor. Además de saber tan bien lo que dices ❤ estás en una plena entrega que se siente hasta lo mas profundo del ser. Dios te bendiga por esta exclamacion de arte! Y que tengas cien mil veces más regalos vos de lo que das con tanta dedicación.
Tu canto legato es maravilloso, tu voz expansiva y tan bien coloreada es sorprendentemente.
Esto es algo que se suspende en las alas del canto con eximia inspiración.
Faltan palabras, sólo agradecimiento por tanto placer. Gracias.
This is Amazing as always Rachel ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for all of your support!
Beautiful! You have something of Renee Fleming in you! The rich creamy timbre and way you spin phrases in melancholy music is very similar. Do you think you’ll ever do a recital of Richard Strauss lieder?
Thank you! Strauss is amazing! I have performed his 4 Letzte Lieder, and would love to do a full Strauss recital!
I think she has something of Eleanor Steber, too, no less.
♥️♥️♥️
