Ingeborg Hallstein's ear breaking, acute-attacked and sustained A6-Bb6

...at 2:18 begins the Festival :D
Disclaimer - I own nothing

[@enfava]

Ingeborn Hallstein' s voice seems like the finest glass about to break with the magic that the scattered pieces once again form the most exquisite of ethearal figures.

[@LohengrinO]

this kind of comments is the reason I made this channel!!! GORGEOUS!!

[@JohnKapistran]

Shocking, Jaw-dropping, cleanest attack in legato and staccato phrases, best purity of tone up and down the range, great musicality and most effortless, in the highest extreme top in this repertoire. Simply incredible and unequaled in all these qualities. Let's celebrate such an artist!

[@LohengrinO]

indeed unequalled in her category (Acuto Sfogato)... not a Circus coloratura but a spectacular Musician that the great Conductors loved (she is Klemperer's Marzelline... the magic in her is not only the Digital-like production of sound but also the phenomenal intonation / pitch and the extreme musicianship: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHaTd2akhbOeoac

[@Valheurbia]

I actually said WTF at 2:18 and at the end. Indeed, a very beautiful and acceptable way of going deaf lol ❤️

[@atlaslife3800]

She makes German - a language traditionally associated with strong, sometimes even harsh, phonemes - feel like a fountain of unbridled joy and spontaneity due to her crystal clear pitch and the majestic artistry of her consonants.

[@LohengrinO]

German language is a delight to listen to in opera if sung by Virtuosos exactly because of the many consonants that make diction and sound support Double Hard... if not triple

[@vocalsvideos458]

Wdym? Here she's singing in italian, or do you mean in another songs?

[@annelafeber8362]

Sie war einfach die beste deutsche Ultra Hoch Koloratura Soprano die es je gegeben hat.Es war nämlich nicht nur hoch,aber auch noch schön dabei,von einer Leichtigkeit.Unglaublich,so ein immenses Talent💝💝💝💝

[@jmiller05]

No light coloratura has ever made the jump from a full, supple middle voice to a high A above High C. The flexibility and intonation is incredible!

[@LohengrinO]

..and musicianship.. her ornaments have an uncanny beauty... she sings up there with uncanny beauty

[@LohengrinO]

on the other hand.. her equivalents like Mado Robin etc are horrible singers for Circus... what an unbelievable difference between this most Sophisticated Acuto Sfogato Soprano and all those ridiculous above F6 singers... absolutely no comparison...

[@Paddy818]

Lohengrin O She is absolutely wonderful but I have to disagree about Robin. She was an incredibly sophisticated musician and like Hallstein a wonderful actress and personality. Robin’s foray into modern music is astounding. I will say her voice is really an acquired taste but as with many of the truly greats you know instantly who the singer is within a few notes.

[@fachryhafidzahmadi4925]

@@Paddy818 I personally don't like Mado Robin. I don't like her tone, too high with no depth. It kinda annoys me

[@Paddy818]

Fachry Hafidz Ahmadi You are not alone. My wife can’t stand her but does admit her musicianship is impressive. For many it’s a matter of vibrato and my wife just can’t get past it. Robin admitted herself in an interview she sometimes wished she had acquired a more Italianate technique rather than French.

Byon Bill not according to This is Opera, he calls her the worst 😞

[@annsalictic8874]

@Breaking Bad Heisenberg: I haven‘t watched that channel in a while, but I seem to recall that he used her as an example for „constriction can sound pretty“ and even acknowledged the fact that she had her chest voice developped to some point, just not enough for him. So I don’t think he’d call her the worst. Anyway, while he is right about certain things, he‘s also caught up in the idea that the italian bel canto technique is the only good and healthy way of singing. That makes him consider some typical elements of what we might call the German singing tradition as flaws which they aren‘t necessarily

[@ensshok]

You are more qualified than many. The enjoyment is key. My experience suggests most opera detractors are disgruntled old gays whose only qualification is being part of a men's choir. Don't worry, the young gays aren't much better - we just compare Ariana and Christina instead of Ingeborg and Edita.

[@mstreepnegron]

Simplemente increíble. Esta señora debe haber tenido mínimo cuatro octavas de voz. Mi teoría personal es que cualquier mujer normal y afinada, tiene tres octavas de voz, porque jamás tuvieron el cambio de cuerdas bifásicas a monográficas, como los hombres que podemos hacer “falsete”, pero es un sonido “liso”, sin armónicos. Si esta señora saliera a cantar en programas actuales como “la voz “, le dirían que bellos falsetes que tienes. Hoy día las mujeres quieren tener voz de hombre aunque dañen sus cuerdas y los hombres voz de mujer, con tanto falsete. Hablo de la música popular actual. Voces como la de esta gran soprano, parecieron haber desaparecido de la faz de la tierra. Qué pena, me lamento por eso. Maravillosa voz de soprano y gran cantante...!!!!!!

[@LohengrinO]

:D and what Hallstein, her Jump to Stratosphere is among the most flawless I have ever heard

[@artfuldodger8525]

Yes, her seamless jump from middle voice to notes several tones above high C shows how special she was. And she's got an uncanny sense of intonation and her interpolations/ornamentations are always tastefully done. As I say, if she had had a voice at least the size Beverly Sills', she would have been bigger than Joan Sutherland. P.S.: still waiting for you to post her singing Ach Ich Liebte and O Zittre Nicht.

[@LohengrinO]

Artful Dodger Not just tastefully... her ornaments have an uncanny beauty.. I dont know how she did it... who wrote them for her? how much of her musicianship (I suspect a lot) is breathed inside the Beauty of the ornaments... there are moments when she sings, that you think you hear a Dream

[@tjtyjtj65tj651tj]

ian1856, what I meant is that if Hallstein had had a more sizable voice (at least as large as Sills'), she might have been able to rival even Joan Sutherland, who had the largest voice of a coloratura soprano ever. P.S.: this is another account, but I'm the same person who made the original comment.

[@artfuldodger8525]

I honestly think Hallstein's voice was smaller. The live performances that I've seen on KZbin show that she could barely project her voice in anything other than very light coloratura roles, in which she was exquisite.

No idea... about 15 years ago I received an email with her Bell song from someone who thought I would find it interesting because I loved top notes... I took one listen to it and dismissed it because of the thin sound column... in the following months her extremely sweet sound and most beautiful cadenza up to G6 kept ringing in my ears and I returned to it and fell in love with her for she is the Prototype of acuto sfogato coloratura... and so beautiful as a woman... very special human being... Otto Klemperer, who did not like coloraturas, had her sing Marzelline in his studio Fidelio

[@sofiascattarreggia7007]

Donald Cant The frequency of the pitch is singing is almost exactly where singers formant is, which is the frequency at which the voice fills a gap that the orchestra does not. So it was probably incredibly loud!

Her extreme high notes were heard mostly in her early recordings (the earlier, the higher, as is natural). After age 30 she would sometimes still go up to F6 but not higher. I appreciate her singing not just for the high notes.
