Je suis obligé de remettre un petit commentaire. Je n'arrive pas à décrocher tellement c'est incroyable. Les vocalises de Julia sont magnifiques. Ce petit bout de bonne femme fait ce q'elle veut avec sa voix. Bravo et bonne continuation Julia. Mes oreilles sont sur un petit nuage. Quand je pense aux heures de travail acharnées pour arriver à la perfection. Encore merci Julia, tu es géniale et exceptionnelle.
L'orchestre est exeptionnel et semble prendre beaucoup de plaisir. Un bon point pour le chef d'orchestre et accessoirement au clavecin. Pour Julia qui est divine, j'ai déja laissé plusieurs commentaires élogieux. Une très grande dame, très douée et très belle. Que du bonheur. Mille fois merci Julia. Continuez à nous émerveiller les yeux et les oreilles.
She has a surprisingly large and pure voice for someone who is physically so tiny. Clearly, her technique is superb and she also takes care to place emotional emphases at the right places in the text which many Baroque singers fail to do.
and she was just 21 here 😭
Body size is not related to how rich or big the voice sounds. Only the range.
@@littlesunshine9218 Range is not determined by body size. For instance, high 'coloratura soprano' range in both the tiny, slim Lily Pons and 'Big-boned' 6-foot tall Joan Sutherland.
But body size and shape IS your Instrument. Like any musical instrument it has its unique qualities and the Singer must learn to 'play' what she or he has been given by Nature.
@@suzannederringer1607 Body size has nothing to do with how the voice projects or sounds. And of course, tall women can be coloratura sopranos - it's just very less likey than with a small/short woman.
@@littlesunshine9218 How the Voice 'projects' depends upon TECHNIQUE. That's the whole point of Voice Voice Lessons.
Body size and shape and bone density and fat have a great deal to do with the unique Sound of each Voice. A Cello sound like a Violin but both 'project' their sound through proper playing.
The guy playing the harpsichord and conducting seems like he’s having the time of his life
I love it!!!!!!
Everyone just look like they're having so much fun its beautiful!
I mean, how could that be different when you have such an ensamble of talented people who love what they do? Those are the best concerts.
So is Julia . . . and the entire ensemble, especially the concert Mistress!
I
Quelle agilité dans la voix, quelle souplesse. Julia est tout simplement merveilleuse. Bravo madame. Félicitations et bonne continuation. L'orchestre aussi est parfait.
Je réécoute ce morceau magique une nouvelle fois. Je n'en reviens toujours pas de cette voix mélodieuse et très souple. Pas de vibrato, souplesse, agilité. Que du bonheur. Merveilleuse et exceptionnelle, la petite Julia. Encore merci.
Merci Julia.
You can see the look on the concertmaster's face when Julia's singing. Mine too.
I love all the comments about how happy and effortless she makes it look... let me assure you, as someone who does this, she might or might not be loving every second, but she's a professional and working her butt off! She's not only a great singer, but a great actress. Even when the continuo crashes at 1:41 (I think somebody jumped ahead to the da capo) and she has to IMPROVISE and wait for the beat to find her again, she's right back on the horse in under 3 seconds as if it never happened - and until I looked at the score, I honestly had no idea. Also, I love the way she ornaments the da capo - enough to make it fresh but also stay within the style and not just show off. This is what an experienced professional looks and sounds like, folks. Exquisite!
Not quite!
Amanda Forsythe is more than Esquisite . The rest... And you know it!
Shes 21 whem she recorded it according to Sanna. Omg. She is amazing.
I wouldn't even think any of this is humanly possible if I had not heard it...
Matthew Scott, I do not know enough, but strongly suspect that your Comment is every bit as authoritative as it sounds. Thank you.
What I love bout this singer is not ONLY her amazing timbre & technique, but her manifest enjoyment of what she's doing. So many singers furrow their brows & look agonized as they produce their finest notes & trills, but Julia's having a great time, enjoying every second of the music & of her own virtuosity. And the fun she's having spills over onto the accompanists---just watch the violinist at 3.06! The sound is divine, but just watching her brings a smile to my face. Thank you Julia.
+sofia robles Claro que si!!! me gusto ese toque generalmente es dado por violines
Effortless voice, no grimaces, no tension, only joy.
That last rolled "R" 😂😂 Almost satire. Absolute fun and joy. YOLO!!!!!
@Janet Rizvi I’m no opera singer,in fact I’m not even a singer/in choir, but after reading your comment I’ve realised that she really is just having fun singing and that just brought a smile into my face.Thanks for pointing this out and making my day better :)
Yes! She has such a joyful stage presence!
You know the performance is otherworldly when nobody mentions the flimsy camera work
Flimsy???? De flatulații ai auzit?
Cântă prost, ca la concursul regional, într-o sală care n-o merită. Ai văzut cum se uită la ea?
@@ingridseiss7600 ????
Only with that one annoying cameraman. Whenever he's on the shot goes haywire. HAHAHA :-)
Astounding. She was 21 here? What a talent, and what a technician. She's a musician's musician. One of the most enjoyable parts of the video was seeing the musicians in the ensemble exchange looks of sheer delight and wonder-the little smiles that can't be hidden, the lively eye contact during pauses. It's exciting to be part of something like this: her singing is truly of the "I didn't think it possible" level. How lucky for those who were there to hear the performance live!
She was 22 or 23. She is 35 now. She's so talented! You're right. Outstanding performance!
She sings like a little bird: so effortlessly. It brings such joy to listen to her and to watch her. A little angel.
Yes like lark clean pure spirit!
@@jeankim7758 I could listen to her all day! Wish she'd come to Madison, WI and I could see her in person--only if we don't have to wear masks. I think she sings as close to perfection as is possible on this earth.
You defined it beautifully.
So nice to see an ensemble directed from the keyboard, which was the way it was done in the baroque period.
Harpsichord, to be precise... 😀
Another reason for the conductor to be at a harpsichord is because of the layout of the keyboard part for the piece. Leading into the B section of the Aria, the main harpsichordist switches to the continuo organ, and someone must take over the harpsichord part whilst she switches. Baroque music is not just beautiful sounding, it’s beauty is in it mechanics of perfection and performance.

Like Pinnock, Koopman, Curtis, etc.
@@Paulsonof Keyboard is arguably a much better term, and people generally prefer it when talking about period music. And that is because they could have very well been sitting at a positive chest organ instead of an harspichord, or really whatever instrument available. Don’t go off and immediately compare it to the modern piano, that doesn’t really work well. Translating the harpsichord as the piano of our time is not very correct. Keyboard instruments were much more diverse than now, and people had also different ideas and such around them.
Superior technic, clarity, diction. And her voice! There is a God and Julia is one of His angels! Bravissima Madama Lezhneva!!!
LOVELY.
Allez, encore un petit compliment pour Julia. Pas de vibrato; écoutez bien, le vibrato est utilisé sciemment et consciemment. La puissance et l'aisance sont toujours présentes. Julia est certainement une des plus grandes soprano de sa génération. Encore merci Julia. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉.
breathtaking. I switch my old high-end-Revox amplifier on and listen to her.
So, she got her voice loudened and can now talk to birds!
Incredible performance, I'm so glad Twoset featured it.
i whish i were a bird...
Even though I get that this is extremely technical and difficult, there's this playful effortlessness about it which makes it just charming. I find that quite rare in classical music (but then I'm just a pleb).
hehehe cos same
You are perfectly right. If the 'experts' spent less time being pretentious, they would enjoy your freshness of perception. And if you listen enough, you'll be a genuine expert anyway!
After watching a few time, I can confidently say that she is Snow White!
I came here because of TwoSet. I've been a singer my whole life (not operatic, though!) and god, I wish I could sing like this....!!!! Definitely got a new favourite singer thanks to this!
It's not too late to start practicing 40 hours every day!
I’ve been studying opera for 18 months and it’ll take me several more years to even get close to what she is doing if I’m lucky. My voice teacher is learning this song right now and it gave her a run for her money.
Her voice is out of this world, couldn’t believe such a big sound could come from a apparently small size person who was just 21years old during this recording. I also observed how the other musicians are enjoying her performance very much……..!!!
What a VOICE! I'm sure Handel would be delighted to hear Julia sing this!
Cela fait une vingtaine de fois que j'écoute ce morceau. Le sourire de Julia et sa voix magnifique me remontent toujours le moral. J'ai déjà laissé plusieurs commentaires . À chaque fois je découvre quelque chose de nouveau. Par exemple, son niveau de concentration. Plein d'autres choses encore, car Julia est tout simplement parfaite. Dans cette interprétation, on peut remarquer que l'orchestre et Julia s'amusent beaucoup. Preuve en est que l'on peut faire de très bonnes choses tout en s'amusant et en prenant du plaisir. Bravo Julia et bravo l'orchestre.
Une très belle chanteuse baroque avev un orchestre idéal. Bravo!
Wonderful voice and she is conducting her voice such as a perfect instrument with her cherubic face.
I was lucky enough to meet Julia in Vienna after a concert in which she was encored at least six times!! She is almost exactly my height (tiny!!) and incredibly sweet in person. It blew my mind hearing her live.
thats amazing!
How tall is she would you guess!? So curious! :)
@@alinatahir8326 4 foot 9
@@MrConroach420 thank you so much!
Last night in St. Petersburg she made 8 encores 😍
Amd she's smiling! They're smiling, woaaah
Everything about the comments here! I don't know if it was mentioned, but when your first violin shows such unbridled appreciation, it's not just another concert!
This girl stepped-out of a fresco somewhere in St. Petersburg; even her physical appearance, along with her voice, seem cut right out of the mid-1700s. The way she commands every note without belittling the accompaniment, and the way the latter doesn’t compete with her voice, is so cool to see on video. Thanks!
czcams.com/video/6x-ko04tThE/video.html
I thought the same!
As well as admiring her skill I also find myself chuckling when I watch her-she seems to sing a passage of astonishing difficulty and then looks as if saying 'well, that was easy'. Even the violinists laugh admiringly.
I also feel happy looking at her face's happy expressions.. Listening to her voice was like listening to the birds of paradise's joyful tweets.. So rare..
czcams.com/video/6x-ko04tThE/video.html
Oh, such joy in her performance and my delight!!!!!!!!
I watch this over and over and over .
She is absolutely excellent, voice, expressions, flexibility, lyrics.
Musically 🎼 🎹 she is excellent.
Wow ❤
Yes she is amazing !
Her voice is free flowing. She moves to the higher register so easily. Most impressive a delight.
This is actually the performance of Julia that I enjoy the most. Her voice control and her registre always amazed me. It is a real joy for the ear and soul.🇨🇷💖💞🌹
Thanks to twoset violin (or more specifically Sanna Iljin) for recommending this one. I just finished watching 29 videos of Julia Lezhneva. I've discovered a new favourite! Amazing.
Same I knew from twoset
Same lol
Amazing clear crystal voice. The keyboard player was moving his head like Kermit the Frog at the start..
Who came here after watching twoset?
Me!!
Me... She is amazing
I did! Listening to her was so delightful! :D
me me me meeeee !
There's a clarity and lightness that makes me think of Emma Kirkby a bit.
I'm an instant fan.
me
My Jaw dropped for the entire music video
Kdyby byl někdo zvědavý na hlas andělů , tak mu pustím tuto skladbu . To je ta nejlepší věc na dobrou náladu .
Meisterhafte Darbietung der Arie der Kleopatra. Dieser Sänger hat alle übertroffen. Bravo!!!! Teure Parfums gibt es in kleinen Flaschen
Handel's got to hand it to her...Her happiness just shines through..

By far, the best version of this song
I absolutely love this performance and the way Julia is communicating with the audience by her gaze and smiles!
Such an enchanting sound! how she’s able to blend so well with the orchestra and her technique is incredible!
😊 wow, a all round performance with a soprano with such a fluid voice full of amazing agility.
Her voice is the silkiest chocolate; it's the smoothest golden satin; it's linens flowing in a gentle breeze. Her control, technique, and quality are so ethereal and effortless, and I love it. My ears thank her.
She has the most beautiful voice
My FAVORITE ,,Girl''... !!!! She is ,,simply the BEST'' - and I will NEVER understand,HOW She can sing in the Corsette !!! THIS Girl should sing Something with Czech ,,C'echomor''... !!!!! As Lenka Dusilovà did... !!!
...And I think,that MANY Boys that Evening falled in Love with Her. As the Violinist wright behind Her... ! 🙂
that's a real life disney princess and no onde can change my mind period.
Can't even imagine that a human voice can do all that. I'm really charmed. Bravo 👏
Came after watching twoset, stayed for the music! Incredible performance and voice control!!!
Это самое лучшее исполнение арии Клеопатры! Юлия Лежнева - гениальная певица! Оркестру - браво! 👏👏👏💐💐💐
Listening to this lifts up my mood.
Her singing makes your heart soar... the camera work makes your head spin. (And to preempt all the smart alecs out there... comments like these wear your patience thin!)
Wie episch ist das denn ?? schwer genial !!!!
C. Bartoli würde einen Hofknicks machen bei einem Empfang !!!❤❤
Some weird things happening about 2:45. First the female harpsichord player vanishes into thin air and then a flute is to hear out of nowhere. Julia Lezhneva is not from this world. I can't take my eyes and ears of her. Truly mesmerizing.
You are so right. There are some weird sounds/mistakes and actions in the orchestra. Julia sings through it beautifully.
Indeed! I have watched this many times and have never noticed that. You have “sharp” eyes @sharpandsentient 😏
- My curiosity got the better of me and I watched again and I think I figured it out.
- The harpsichordist and the continuo organ (organo/little organ?) player are one and the same person
- At about 1:56 she moves over to the organo - if you look past the first violinist you see her settling in at the organo 2:02-2:14 - and then at 3:22 she takes her music and moves back to the harpsichord (notice at 3:34 there is now no one at the organo)
- At 1:59 there is a dull thud - it is probably her as she makes the move over to the organo
- I have no idea where the flutist is - and neither does the camera person 🙂
- Yes - I had too much time on my hands tonight, but thank you @sharpandsentient for the little visual challenge!
I can't stop replaying this part 1:11
She sounds like an angel. What a beautiful voice!
Julia Lezhneva is an exceptional singer. Love her wonderful runs and resonant legato lines. Crisp articulation, the scalic passages are never rushed nor slurred; like the clear double tonguing of a flutist. Love her lightness of touch and superb Handelian energy. Bravissimo!
leggera arroganza, sicurezza, mento in su, sguardo certo e sicuro, schiena dritta. che bellissimo talento oltre la voce.
This one really feels like someone who's waiting excitedly for someone special
So good to see a younger singer who doesn’t sound nasal and constricted.
She's like "I wanted to speak but accidentally started singing instead".
Her charm, personality and beauty are only equaled by her angelic voice!
As soon as I heard this singer's song, I became a fan.
sooo beautifully sung with crystal clear coloratura and graceful expressive phrasing but also can we appreciate the harpsichordist/conductor absolutely rocking out
She’s like a little bird, a nightingale… Amazing.
1:15 unbelievable tonal quality, delicate, precise; would put a nightingale to shame.
Well, I was wondering how Miss Julia Lezhneva can be half way between a woman and a bird, a celestial one strolling high, so lightly on its wings up there. This all the way through this wonderful Haendel piece. It's amazing, since she's amazing ;-) !
So glad someone provided a reference to that part!! I've never heard anything like it. Also check out that little flicker of light in her eye after she turns her head at 1:26.........
It's incredible!
astounding control, vibrato and projection and she is only 21 and so joyous
I am thrilled by her enchanting voice.. she is my baroque angel.❤🩹🌹💯
I like that the conductor is sitting down, doesn't overshadow her.
Wow, that tempo! But not only does she pull it off, she makes it look easy. Brilliant musicianship all around.
~Da tempeste il legno infranto,
se poi salvo giunge in porto
non sa più che desiar.
Così il cor tra pene, e pianto,
Or che trova il suo conforto
torna l'anima a bear.~
"A storm-battered vessel, if it at least arrives safely in port, has nothing left to desire. So my heart, through suffering and weeping, now that it has found comfort, returns to make my soul happy at last."
👋🔥🌹
Julia's vocal performance was phenomenal!
She's the WHOLE PACKAGE OF HUMANITY IN ONE BODY!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I seriously watched a greater part of this video with my mouth wide open. Her talent and technique is UNREAL. WOW!!!!
I honestly think that this will never get old! I LOVE this lady’s voice!!! ❤️❤️❤️
5:03 DAMN!!!😍
Огромное спасибо за эту превосходную запись этого шедевра в исполнении Юлии Лежневой! Много лет слушаю и наслаждаюсь!❤❤❤👏👏👏💐💐💐
Absolutely sublime,a most enjoyable listen, This lady has an absolutely incredible voice.
It is so beautiful. It seems so effortless, yet this is probably incredibly hard. I listen and just can't understand how is this humanly possible?
I have never in my life seen such talent. Seems like a very sweet person, as well.
The voice of an angel. I wish I could be so talented.
bravissima. ❇️
È bella voce. ✨
Tecnica è molta brava. ❤️
Юлечка! У вас чудесный голос! Браво! Ещё одним лучиком стало светлей в мире музыки и теплее на этой земле. Большое спасибо вашим Родителям за такое прекрасное создание.
Well, she sure can trill!! I don't love everything about her sound, but my oh my can she deliver the Baroque style appropriately. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
She is really the thing that we call soprano it is. My Lord!
Очаровательная соловушка. Столько счастья и радости в ней.
You know you're really good when them violinists smiles as you sing 👏💐 Bravo!
I think that if Handel was there... he'd be happy to hear his piece.
This is an incredibly difficult aria technically and this is one of the most brilliant performances I have seen. Bravo!
The male violinist at the back is so me HAHAHAHA but only his stare is so different while he steal a glance on Leshneva HAHAHAHA
OMG! Perfection and mega goosebumps - that't the test for me.
I've listened to other versions and none compare. There is a connection to the music, lightness, easiness and joy she brings to it. She sounds like like she is playing an instrument not singing. Amazing
I was watching in awe.... like-literally! My mouth shaped in small "o" and when the video suddenly stopped because the wifi is fudging garbage!!!!!!
Well, I had to set down my phone for a minute cuz I kinda broke one of our glasses while violently throwing my arms around in frustration.😅
I’ve never heard such an amazing sound. It’s so very fabulous!
I've seen this video a thousand times just because I like it. But I never realized what happened at 3:00 I know there's something wrong lol
Good Grief! I had this on background but her voice was so compelling I had to "investigate!" Julia Lezhneva is to Soprano as Cecilia Bartoli is to mezzo! What agility! Vocal acrobatics, so effortless and so charming...She is in love with music and transmits that love to us - and yes, as ebaytime expressed it, like a little uccelina! Thank God for all singers, but especially this great little one! Wow!
Eine tolle Darbietung. Händel würde sich freuen. Danke.
Che voce angelica, meravigliosa, incredibile!!!
You're sold before she even sings a note.
She looks at the audience and everything about her says 'you're going to enjoy this"and then she just soars. Benjamin Zander in his classes always has an uphill struggle to persuade young performers to connect with the audience and he should just show them this.
Auszeichnung für Deine Technik Julia Lezhneva! Die Bögen sind vortrefflich angelegt!Wunderschöne Stimme!Unglaubliche Schönheit!
