Joyce DiDonato - Lascia ch'io pianga

[@frankhynd885]

"At 26 was Joyce was told she had "not much talent" At 28 was she told she had nothing to say as an artist." At 35, while being rejected for a certain role, she was told that it required "star casting". We are pleased that Joyce had real perseverance as we enjoy her music very much. Henry Ford said that if you think you can or you can’t, you are right!

[@elalli99]

Who in their right mind would say this singer wasn’t talented? Some loser who was threatened by her voice?

Lascia ch'io pianga, quando ascolto questa musica ..... ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Joyce's "Lascia ch'io pianga" feels so utterly... true.

Großartig gesungen, bin total begeistert 🩷🤍🩵

It‘s simply out of this world, what a gifted singer ! Brava !

[@sivaschuh4396]

J’adore cette interprétation vidéo du célèbre air de Haendel. Madame DiDonato est magnifique. J’applaudis sa capacité à donner vie à cet air à travers son jeu d’actrice. Époustouflant. Brava! J’applaudis aussi le chorégraphe qui en était responsable. Bravo!

[@aysekoksalcetin7989]

I think I stopped breathing during this video, with chill running through my spine. What an amazing and heartfelt performance. Bravo

[@sivaschuh4396]

D'accord. Brava!

Що за чудовий голос. Прекрасне виконання. Джойс ДіДонато моя улюблена Американська співачка. Якби я була б щаслива, якби я вчилася у неї співу в свій час. Прекрасний педагог.

[@GiaJeon888]

I just discovered this artist and her interpretation touches and moves me so deeply. 😢😢

[@sarahgonser6341]

I ADORE this woman. Lets place the songs written a time ago, with a music video that allows the viewer (especially opera newcomers) to recognize that these words apply to TODAY. Opera is as relevant as a lost lover, a tear, a smile or a misplaced priority.

[@pietroluigicrasti3678]

i adore too ! It's really true that those words are could be apply even TODAY

[@lialiniawatychristian.]

I love Opera❤️

[@rhcb1]

I have adored her for 15 years! The world's most interesting performing artist and a lovely person too.

[@broaddusmarines]

No song on the planet touches my emotions more than this song.

[@maryharris8050]

First time seeing this incredible video. When I first heard this song on Barbra Streisand’s Classical album, I thought it was a love song. When I learned it is about freedom( (liberte) the emotion was even more powerful.

[@maitestorchi2497]

Enfin je l'ai trouvée la version la plus émotionnelle et la plus sensible de cet air dramatique . On y croit à ce chant désespéré, Joyce nous interpelle avec tellement de talent et de sensibilité . La mise en scène est judicieusement choisie .... La Liberté prend des formes tellement différentes, son chant d'espoir ne s'arrêtera jamais .

[@ВОЛК-и5к]

Это не девушка!!!!

[@sfkcbf]

Joyce DiDonato brings out every ounce of musicality in her performance. Plus, her voice is pure and focused in the Baroque style , without undue vibrato or scooping. I am sending this link to several other music lovers.

[@thechinadesk]

"undue vibrato or scooping" That is indeed a problem with many interpretations.

[@lialiniawatychristian.]

Yes, she makes me cry with this song.

[@Tarnetzky]

I discovered this aria in the Farinelli Il Castrato film. I was 15 now I am 40. I was transported into another world. But I have never heard such perfection in this aria. Brava!!!

I saw the music for this aria in a church choir loft, and asked the organist why it was there; the soprano soloist (MA from Northwestern Univ.) was using it as a wedding aria "because it was pretty". (I was mortified.)

[@carolgherard]

😅

[@michaelverive4807]

Like Maxim from Cellopedia playing Bach’s “Ich steh mit einem fuss im grabe “ as a wedding song. Beautiful music, but ironic song title!

[@krystynawroblewska5879]

Let me weep
My cruel fate,
And that I

[@karenhardie291]

I have not heard or seen Opera performed in this way before! It's certainly very thought provoking and makes one think of the genre in a different and fresh way. Absolutely stunning! Haunting beauty.

[@РозаГубайдуллина-ч2в]

Dolore, freddo, solitudine, amarezza, lacrime, abbandono, disperazione. Gli errori ti crocifiggono in terra. Poi ci si rialza, con dolore, con le ferite ancora sanguinanti, ma ci si rialza. E c'è una impercettibile luce, i primi petali di rosa che ti profumano la debole vita, il primo vento che ti accarezza il viso. E c'è la porta che finalmente si spalanca, il sole che sorge, tu che sorridi.

the best mezzo in the world

[@claireforestgreenorgangeek7882]

I thought she was a full soprano. Isn't this song too high for mezzos? (I'm not a singer but I listen to a lot of music, and that's my opinion, this song is too high for mezzos.) I'm not dissing you, just stating an opinion.

[@sanibelSF]

@@claireforestgreenorgangeek7882Joyce DiDonato IS a Mezzo but has an incredible range. check out her CD "Stella diNapoli" an amazing performance.

[@claireforestgreenorgangeek7882]

@@sanibelSF Wow, thanks for the info! I will check it out. Have a great day.

[@frogmouth]

@@claireforestgreenorgangeek7882 its often sung by sopranos but with the mezzo voice comes a darker mood which suits it . Joyce is mezzo with a good high range but if you can compare this with Julia Leszhevna you will hear the mezzo " treacle" as opposed to honey!
