Parole e musica struggenti e intense. Bravissima l'interprete. Una canzone che sveglia i cuori dal torpore di una notte "gelida" e li illumina di luce e di speranza. Un grazie eterno a A. Dvorak che ha avuto il genio di scrivere tali note di "poesia" vera. Grazie all'orchestra e al maestro Pappano per aver diretto questa splendida composizione in maniera sublime.

My Dad loved opera and when my sister got married she wanted a different song to march down the aisle to, my father suggested this and she loved it. Other members of my family (I don't remember if my brother used it but definitely two of my cousins did) used this song as well and it's now the wedding march of my generation in our family. Depending on the size of the wedding party and the length of the aisle, a little creative DJ-ing might have to occur cos the "O moon, stay a while!" 02:24 is the part where the bride herself walks down the aisle.

This performance was notable not only for the lovely singing, but because the director did not ruin it with endless moving shots. He, or she, kept the camera not only still, but not too close up. So many performances are ruined for me by eccentric directors and their bad camera movements. Bravo, or Brava, to the director.

English Translation of "Song to the Moon" Moon, high and deep in the sky Your light sees far, You travel around the wide world, and see into people's homes. Moon, stand still a while and tell me where is my dear. Tell him, silvery moon, that I am embracing him. For at least momentarily let him recall of dreaming of me. Illuminate him far away, and tell him, tell him who is waiting for him! If his human soul is, in fact, dreaming of me, may the memory awaken him! Moonlight, don't disappear, disappear!

Kristine Opolais is a vivacious and beautiful woman. She is a wonderful singer with a huge talent and she exudes feminine warmth and beauty both on stage and off. As a Czech, I have to say I am pleased - even excited - to hear our beautiful, rare language in whatever medium is on offer. Although opera singing ostensibly hardly resembles conversational language use (it is laughable how different are the two vocal styles) a native of the country will still use the conversational test to detect accurate portrayal of the language by a non-native. Although she does not quite pass this strict test, I admire people like Kristine who can get their Czech to pass for a native, to the casual observer or someone who learned the language in order to live in Prague for a time, having come from another place. She gets an "A" from me nonetheless, because Czech is very difficult due to its many dialects, its intonations, idioms, slangs and correct word pronunciations and vowel sounds. I take off my hat before this amazing woman. Not only does she do a great job, she is really easy on the eyes

CANÇÃO À LUA A ópera Rusalka, inspirada nos contos de fada tchecos, De Antonin Dvorak, apresenta Song to the Moon, cantada Por Rusalka, filha de um duende, ao ouvir os bons ecos De seu coração, fica por um príncipe-caçador encantada. Na canção, Rusalka roga a lua para levar a sua mensagem De amor ao príncipe-caçador na região do lago onde Ele frequenta com assiduidade. Isto pode ser a visagem. A lua é um lugar onde o amor das pessoas se esconde. Nos tempos da pandemia com o recolhimento nos lares, Deve aumentar muito os pedidos de quem não pode sair À rua para fazer, pessoalmente, a súplica dos cantares. Rusalka não sofre de doenças, pois o DNA é diferente Dos humanos e pode ajudar as pessoas a não contrair Qualquer mal que vive só atormentando a essa gente. (*) (*) FERNANDO PINHEIRO, presidente da Academia de Letras dos Funcionários do Banco do Brasil. - CANÇÃO À LUA (poesia), de Fernando Pinheiro. - in O mundo de Morfeu, de Fernando Pinheiro.
