Elsa Dreisig sings Rachmaninov: "Vocalise" (with Jonathan Ware)

[@Rachturne]

Without fail brings my daughter to tears

[@CaresinVerse]

This is an aria that requires a well-trained voice, great breath control and the finest musical skill. Miss Dreisig has all of this and more. Bravo. And kudos to your accompanist as well. I loved every moment of this worthy presentation and if Rachmaninov could be listening from up there, he would too. ❣️

You must be an expert

[@jefferyvonli4665]

The arias is wordless, her perfomance is speechless

Very beautiful interpretation of this wonderful work from the master pianist and composer

Pink Floyd, Clare Torry, "Great Gig in the Sky", one of the most beautiful vocalisations you will ever hear!!

i also LOVE that live performance, but this is completely different.

Très touchée par votre âme et votre technique Merci infiniment

[@xavierglansbeek2876]

Fabulous. Brava !

[@GrafikDesign-l5d]

Joli dans la tonalité très haute voulue pour épater et révéler une coloratur, belle performance technique. En revanche, on ressent dès la monté dans les aigus un grand manque de chaleur et de douceur dans le timbre, ce qui peut rapidement agacer un mélomane averti. Très bien interprétée techniquement, tout en n'arrivant malheureusement pas à dégager et retranscrire toute l'émotion émanant de cette magnifique pièce, ce chef d'oeuvre de Rachmanivov .

[@ppppppppppppppppp999]

Great!

[@josesacramento1494]

Emocionante!

Great🥰

masterpiece of Sergey Rahmaninoff's through russian folk songs and motives was true and pure as racing on the horses in the long road during old fields and russian forests... Thx

[@barbaragauhl6175]

Beautiful ❤️

I’m going to blast this in my whip next time I pick up a gram from my dealer that lives on the other side of the hood. It’s just too good

[@michaelmiller1215]

Amazing

Hi! : Wednesday, the second week of December. Time flies. This is the end of the year, so... I hope you this week will be a healthy/feeling week. ^O^

Énekelve még soha nem hallottam! ✨🎶🎼

[@obivincent6289]

Ich finde diese Vorstellung echt toll! Schön, dass ich sie geschaut habe. Ich habe diese Vicalise auf die Querflöte gespielt.. sie ist nicht so leicht zu singen.

[@kevintmusic]

Excellent performance!

[@vimtk]

😍 Hum

[@lauraassis1970]

I feel totally devastated after listening to this

[@vladmorevlad2232]

Why? This is so beautiful and suave. Let it fill you with positiveness and joy. Don't associate it with negative energy 😇

[@johnhalverson2849]

Your feelings are VALID. This was written to mourn the millions killed in WW1, one of the most brilliantly stupid wars of all time. Mourning is.not negativity, it's humanity.

[@witness1603]

@@johnhalverson2849 while I would like to believe he wrote it to mourn the senseless deaths of WW1, I can't find any evidence of that being the case.

[@AlexEwan1]

Never know this was originally composed for voice and piano. I have played it many times on violin.

[@3lla387]

[@helloo_wooorld]

😂😂😂 She is very beautiful, isn’t she?

[@celloguy]

I love Elsa Dreisig in some repertoire but this brutally reveals tuning difficulties, and the timbre often gets pinched and nasal, and registral transitions are not at all smooth. A vocalise doesn’t need to be sing on a wide open Ah vowel - the vowel can be varied, and often pushing it towards an Ooh makes emission and control easier, and adds depth to the timbre.

[@kevinm6790]

Please stick with the cello.

[@celloguy]

@@kevinm6790 Please listen to Moffo or Fleming to hear what this piece immaculately sung

[@moichemin99]

Je veux épouser cette femme

[@kevinm6790]

That’s understandable!

[@mugumearnold6523]

There where she speeds up the aria giving it less life. It needs to be leggato

[@danieIlondon]

Trololololol

[@siroossiroos8215]

geht nicht mal ohne klavier? diese wunderbare stimme braucht keine begleitung.

[@gagicamisto1803]

Gggg.... Ist halt original...

[@wuyipiano]

It "looks" really difficult to sing... Bravo

[@kevinm6790]

It is!

[@musikmusik1041]

Sehr aggressiv, leider absolut am Thema vorbei! So darf man Rachmaninow nicht singen!!!

[@marieantoinette3857]

Why does she need to open the mouth so much in middle register?? Aja, with no support it is impossible to sing legato, trills etc. I totally forgot. How stupid of me. She would help herself a lot by standing straight. The top is so strained. She is already developing a wobble in the back of the voice. It will become bigger with years. I mean it is a vocalise, if you cannot sing this, you are done. Finito.

[@ecksdee9768]

ok

[@kotaterrace7429]

Well, she CAN sing this, so she’s not done. And you Marie Antoinette, can see yourself to the guillotine.

[@AnimeS1mp]

Ok- you sing then 🗿💀🙄

[@ibenenson]

This it as it ought to be, naturally better than chello or violin.
