Dame Joan Lakmé's 'Flower Duet' (Sydney, 1976)

[@cindyj5522]

This has to be the richest, silkiest, most fulsome rendition of this piece in the most gorgeous set ever made. It is not a piece I would associate with the Queen of Wagner's Valkyries but she was such an artist who had such immense control of her voice that she could sing anything written for a soprano and glorify it. Her companion took full advantage of the opportunity to wind her own voice around that sparkling gem. Brava!!

I have never in my life enjoyed this type of music but I must say this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Caught the very end on t.v and had to look it up to hear the entire song.

This piece is attention grabbing! You don’t have to love opera to recognize absolutely beauty. Listen also to the rendition of Sabine and Marianne, it will blow your socks off.

Words falter but the heart soars. Such pleasure Dame Joan’s heavenly voice. None compares. Australia’s gem of the ages 🇦🇺

I was instantly enthralled the first time I heard Dame Joan Sutherland and Madam Huguette Tourangeau's staging of one of the most remarkable opera duet pieces of all time.

I wish she was still around.

The phrase in its entirety is so much more beautiful than the few notes pop culture keeps shoving down our throats.
