Carmina Burana -1989 (Ending Only) (Kathleen Battle)

I loved this video so much, but I wanted to quickly get to the Kathleen Battle solo and the ending two pieces, that I created this clipping. The original credits are at the end.

Marvelous performance. I wish I had been in the audience. Kathleen Battle;. exquisitely beautiful. Ozawa:. Da bomb!!!

I am falling in love with Kathleen Battle’s singing this year 2022. Wow!!

[@rlarsen000]

I have always thought of the “dulcissime” solo to be the apex of this massive choral work. It is a complete reversal of the raucous and bawdy Carmina up to that point. Everything comes to a sudden stop before this soaring an stunning five-word solo.

I’ve sung the in the chorus of several performances of “Carmina", and I can’t begin to imagine doing it without music - from memory. And Kathleen Battle is incredible!

Kathleen Battle is one of the greatest musicians of the past hundred years. Her singing is just godly. When you can see the lead violinist in the background smiling like a pig in shit, it's because he can hear

Ahh thirty years ago I found a CD of Kathleen Battle singing Negro Spirituals absolutely angelic.

[@ssinssg]

Her tone....is EVERYTHING. Impeccable technique. She sings at such a high level, nearly peerless.

[@nicolereding7234]

She is breathtaking , voice like velvet, precious moment

Kathleen Battle and Sir Thomas Allen are the soloists.

That finale is the MOST POWERFUL, VERY HERALDIC and BIGGEST!

Brilliance personified. RIP dear Maestro Ozawa. SO loved this at Tanglewood with Battle, Lopardo & Hampson soloing.

I worked at an HMV’s classical section in Montreal when I was a student and played this EVERYDAY, each time freezing everyone in tears and in their tracks at the store as it did to me and my team when we first heard this.

Leontyne Price sings and she brings God to me-but Kathleen Battle, Kathleen Battle-she take me home, to the hearth of my soul’s high song!

Kathleen Battle…I love you. God bless you always.

[@ThePianositter]

She did it with my orchestra around this time - surely one of my life’s peak experiences

[@vcom2327]

I sang in a performance of Carmina. The strangest, most memorable music I ever participated in.
