Accessible Arias: 'Voi che sapete' sung by Rinat Shaham, from Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro

[@amused2death775]

she caught that clumsy, embarrassed boyish movement perfectly. great acting and great singing. bravo!

[@kashigata]

Amused 2Death I totally agree. 😃

[@nashira4673]

The way she’s facing away in the beginning makes me lol

[@Honeydew7396]

She plays a much more convincing boy than most of the performers I've seen.

[@historicartistic3531]

Love her performance as Cherubino, and her version of this song is beautiful! 👏

[@kikerousset7674]

This is my favorite version of Voi Che Sapete, excellent Rinat! Amazing Cherubino.

[@Atrux1]

+mmmbrunommm3 I strongly approve both of them, even if i think Maria Erwig is better on a "theater" way for the role and that Cecilia Bartoli sing the better of both on this :D

[@mmmbrunommm3]

Atrux1 Erwig is indeed a better actress imho but Cecilias's voice is better suited for this piece. Both of them are pretty good.

[@patriciaoolala]

agree, the best Cherubino ever, love her voice, she should be back at the ROH, soon !

[@VasilWho]

The most artistic performance I've seen so far. Love every single bit of it. Thank you.

[@gerardbellanger563]

Les très bonnes interprétations ne manquent pas. En voilà une qui est magnifique. Rinat Shaham est très impressionnante dans son jeu de rôle et de voix. Félicitations.

[@johncraig3756]

a very lovely interpretation, lot's of emotion from a very strong voice.

[@AgnesRegina]

LOVE it. And the ornamentation is tasteful and lovely -- awesomeness!

[@Pavlovska]

I love her performance. Really good acting and singing!

[@profemanarte]

marvellous voice and perfomance, really amazing. I adore this version. Congratulations from Spain

[@ardinsalim9048]

everyone talking about rinat, but how about the actress who play the countess?? her range of expressions in this video are so good.

[@DraakFeuer]

My favorite production of Figaro. I can't wait to watch it again!

[@aneashumm203]

this is absolutely marvelous. what an artist!

[@margie713]

Beautifully sung and acted, the best I've ever seen! Thank you so much for posting, I'm so glad to have heard and seen this!!!

[@shopofcrafts]

Best interpretation on KZbin, and what a magnificent voice!

[@ninal3678]

What a remarkable performance!! Love it!!

[@JenniferBrisk]

My favourite interpretation ❤

[@leoniemikele6]

Would love to see her live some day.

[@alanmichaelg55]

I love this opera and this is one of its many highights. Great performance. I have this performance on a Dvd

[@julianacaldas7119]

Maravilhosa interpretação! Vejo um Cherubino verdadeiro! Brava!

[@gabik33333]

Beautifully sung, beautifully acted. This scene has been so often washed of emotions, so static. Great performances but often stripped off feelings. Here it is different. Something is coooking. Can hear it and feel it in the air. BTW isn't this Dorothea Roschmann as Countess?

[@jeffreyobrien8056]

Agree - Wonderful staging and performance. Only Marianne Crebassa I can rate ahead of her.

[@jamescashin9555]

love this performance

[@epatobjork]

Particularmente, me agradó el adorno del final, pues creo que añade más vida a ésta grandiosa obra. BRAVO !!

[@davidgleba3832]

Bravissimi!

[@mcgbelles]

Bellísima voz, fabulosa interpretación de esta magnífica aria.

[@20thCenturyFix]

what an amazing Musician!

[@gustavo123213]

Voi che sapete Che cosa è amor Donne vedete S'io l'ho nel cor Quello ch'io provo Vi ridirò È per me nuovo Capir nol so Sento un affetto Pien di desir Ch'ora è diletto Ch'ora è martir Gelo, e poi sento L'alma avvampar E in un momento Torno a gelar Ricero un bene Fuori di me Non so ch'il tiene Non so cos'è Sospiro e gemo Senza voler Palpito e tremo Senza saper Non trovo pace Notte, nè dì Ma pur mi piace Languir così Vio che sapete Che cosa è amor Donne, vedete S'io l'ho nel cor

[@antoniofernandez-albalatga5731]

Extraordinaria.Que sentido de la ornamentación.Maravillosa ornamentación.❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@lovemetu]

Rinat Shaham is perhaps my favourite Carmen. Nearly went to see her play Carmen a few years ago, exchanged emails about the production via her site and she said she hoped that I would come to see her sing. Things come up to prevent me going, regret it now !! Lovely singer and nice lady. Rinat plays the role of ''Cherubino'' here, and does it very well. Lovely voice as usual.

[@pokerchannel6991]

u shold have gone to see her. Now it is too late. May she rest in peace. My condolences.

[@paulahwang]

Best version I have ever listened to

[@elvilleneror2]

tremenda interpretacion, no puedo evitar llorar

[@НатальяХ-р5з]

Лучшее исполнение!!!

[@alexkurinska5701]

IT was amazing😀👏👏

[@ВероникаТотева-х8л]

Одно из лучших исполнений на мой вкус.

[@darlamundine]

Mozart wrote this for her!

[@arduinotomasi]

brilliant

[@StringChannel]

Shaham is superb! We just heard her in Sydney singing Carmen. As we all clapped in unison, someone behind me said "wow... wow,,, wow " and that's how my husband and I felt exactly.

[@theinkbrain]

Adorable!

[@cedwardmassey]

The little twist to the vocals is good. Great voice.

[@staffanlingarde3431]

delightful...

[@emmanie2748]

She fits the look perfectly

[@MCR1235]

I watched this production when it was on the telly, really enjoyed it xD

[@APare-bx2ir]

It was so nice seeing them use the set again in the Toronto production this year!

[@Daragaman]

Really really good

[@infledermaus]

Beautiful!

[@ליאורהספיאל]

Beautiful, thank you 🙏

[@GordonZoot]

Stunning!

[@Cammie010]

My fav Cherubino

[@ayakamatsumoto5014]

Beautiful instincts

Love it!

[@darlamundine]

My favored Cherubino ever💥 Brava!

[@gmarshall5858]

Truly delightful.

[@shelbysmith2919]

The lady she's singing to is so cute! Me too, sis!!

[@csabarabh]

Very natural interpretation, 9.9/10!

[@caroljuly]

I would like to see her sing Non so piu cosa son cosa faccio

[@ryanmorgansinger]

This just beautiful

[@RaffertyMBTI]

come all ye faithful...

[@paquimedinanavarro1441]

Precioso de las mejores

[@egraceq]

@ToFSIMS While I agree the Maria Ewing performance is stellar in the voice and acting categories, Rinat Shahman plays Cherubino perfectly! She looks the part completely, and acts it very well, with wonderful expression in her voice. This performance is also a little more interesting to watch then the Maria Ewing. But, they are both amazing performances, and not easily compared.

[@Sheehan1]

My emotions!

[@dibulidiobulijiojio949]

the best version

[@sofiacamacho8117]

Hello, Does anyone here know what key is this song written as (on this version)??? Please i need help 🥺 I just started music class, and on vocal performance i need to sing this song, but i feel the key i was given waa way too high (too flutey sonding, almost like the voice at Mozards Queen of the Night) I love Voi che sapete in wathever key is this interpretation on!

[@ShinyScvivers]

Brava! Che bella voce, io non sapea che cantaste sì bene.... :)bellissimo suono, grande tecnica

[@davidbrown8763]

Mozart forever!

[@editdorkye]

i am so thankful for the translation!!

[@talitasofijakomelj9730]

Very nice! :)

[@emmablassel843]

A couple of days ago there was nozze of figaro opera at Boston Conservatory theater. It was awesome but i believe this artist is a better performer than the more beautiful one who played Cherubino!

[@arduinotomasi]

this is so beautiful

[@Igor-p1f]

😊

[@Angelicwings1]

My favourite aria from this wonderful opera

[@pangpek5645]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bluefandango]

It occurs that whoever sings this aria is the "best Cherubino ever"

[@alba1345]

I liked it

[@ahmedelnady7373]

Where can i watch the full opera?

[@월든-i9l]

와 진짜 최고다 목소리봐라 미치겠다 진짜 눈물이난다 와 ㅠㅠ

[@mizofan]

Excellent, and next stops Von Stade in this role and Shaham a sexy Carmen

[@ButacuPpucatuB]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@lestinmurillo2566]

[@friendstyle726]

[@P1B1U1H1]

Absolutely delicious.

[@orendainlicon]

De las mejores cherubinos en mi opinion.

[@pascalbatinge6538]

In Ghana it means maths and science quiz

[@wordsworks7084]

What did happen with the orchestra??

[@hassel0406]

she's very cute.

[@sungpackhong4144]

Is the leftmost person actually playing something and the person next to it serving as a human music stand?

[@ToFSIMS]

@egraceq .Thanks for the comment. I was basing my earlier comment solely on the voice quality and to a lesser extent on acting. But after all, it is only one video and it is difficult for me to determine how much the voice quality is enhanced by the recording vs. actual singer's voice quality. I agree that Rinat Shahman sang very well and acted the part perfectly, only thing I did like a bit less was the flourish at the end, which is a deviation from the score, I think.

[@rogerpropes7129]

How many viewers know that in the third play of the trilogy, no opera, we learn that Cherubino and Rosina had a love-child?

[@mariafernandez5460]

Roger Propes I know it ...but never seen,to be honest.This is somethimg like a homework to do,but never done. Finally,I always look at the same favourite operas again,and again,and again...the thing is...I never get bored .Do you know what I mean?

[@clivegoodman16]

I have read an English translation of that play. Also, I understand that this play has also been transformed into an opera.

[@rogerpropes7129]

@@mariafernandez5460 Actually this is not my favorite Mozart opera, the music is too uniform and restrained, or classical in style, throughout. Also note that she alters or improvises the ending of the conventional aria where the final phrase should be repeated

[@RubenAngelesOficial]

I would like to see this character played by a young countertenor. Perhabs in a bit lower tessitura

[@OscarLeeMX]

Why embellish perfection though?

[@월든-i9l]

미치겠다

[@КетиКети-т5ч]

Please, tell me her name

[@randallmaluenda]

Very delicate and sensitively dreamy aria. But explain to me the gender bending.

[@Andy_Ross1962]

You need to see the whole thing.

[@matthewtalbot228]

I'm not sure whether she should take that as a compliment or an insult

[@ilytten]

Great singing, but not the acting- She doesnt get the Cherubino vibe.

[@tibele1000]

almost perfect. I didn't like the flourishes she added at the end.

[@ToFSIMS]

Not as good as Maria Ewing, I think

[@armandogro91]

She has bad diction, and, for my taste, her voice is too big.
