Three superstars showing beautiful restraint to honor Mozart. Simply gorgeous. ❤️❤️❤️

[@ternitamas]

Breathtaking performance. The most exquisite trio written by Mozart. Renee looks stunning in that dress and her singing is otherworldly as always!

[@wamozart6055]

A Mozart sarebbe bastato scrivere solo questo terzetto per essere comunque il più grande compositore di tutti i tempi.

[@philipc67]

This is a piece of pure beauty, so elegantly sung by three splendid American artists and with just a pinch of wistful humor towards the end. I sense that they are all holding back in volume, Hampson sounding as if he is covering his voice and supporting the ladies, giving the trio a lyrical lightness. I had the privilege of hearing Miss Fleming live in a special concert given during the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games in the city's immense Great Hall of the People and the size of her voice was astonishing!

[@marinasever1]

Для меня люди с такими голосами - небожители!!! Божественно прекрасно. 💓

[@nunziamaddaloni1229]

Come abbia potuto Mozart tradurre in musica la leggerezza del vento della baia di Napoli, e' qualcosa di eccezionale!

[@sherlockinaforever]

When I hear this gorgeous trio, I think that we shall not condemn the world : there is still beauty out there, we just have to find it !

[@InvestingForTomorrow24]

I fully understand and appreciate your guarded optimism. There is a vast treasure of contributions from both the high and the low which could only be described as our birthright. Whether or not the capricious and whimsical greed of our species will drive us to extinction is a matter of debate. The world is able to renew itself at a rate of 1.0. The rate of consumption is 1.3. Place your bets.

So we are romantics but sceptical - wished they'd sent this to space on Voyager so there is a record in the universe of the greatness humanity has occasionally risen to.

[@mtv565]

If you know the back story of this trio, you'll know it's ugly actually!! The cynical friend sent the 2 women's husbands away (lied to them that they were going for military service) to test the women's fidelity when their husbands were absent. The whole opera is about women being unfaithful to their husband!!

[@janetflier6192]

mmm It's their boyfriends they were unfaithful to! (And the whole thing was a set-up by Don Alfonso!)

[@janlewis5578]

[@nicolahacking2623]

The soaring yet restraint.It is beautiful.

[@bigowl9408]

So dream like and full of the warmth of expectation. This is the wonder of Mozart where he can produce a sound full of multi layers of emotion. One of the true romantics. Never tire of listening to this iconic piece. This is one of the most exquisite of renditions I have heard.

[@TheYopogo]

romantic?

[@montefaltro]

What always intrigued me about this opera is that the libretto is a funny, absurd, comedy of errors. Yet the music, like this piece, speaks to the beautiful and profound. I'm not the first to comment that perhaps Mozart in this tension of opposites was commenting on the fact that beneath the apparent absurdities of life lie true beauty and meaning.

[@janetflier6192]

I totally agree with you!! Gorgeous!!

[@DanielBerlinMerlin]

There's something so real and authentic about this performance. They make it sound as if they're in conversation together, a whole other level of singing.

[@katrinadefelice6388]

A beautiful rendition of this work of Mozart but what really makes me smile and warms my heart is the look the man gives st the end when he looks up and rolls his eyes then looks angelically down at the ladies. It's these human gestures that endear me.

[@eleonoragv]

True. Say no more!!!

[@stephendahl3034]

Perhaps it is left to us to find the beauty in life. It must be wonderful to be able to sing. But there again, it is wonderful to be able to fix a car - and there is beauty in the understanding of the machine. I suppose it is all reliant on how we approach things.

[@janetflier6192]

This is just the BEST!! I love it!!

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

No matter how famous you are, it is still almost impossible to sing this trio!

[@RemyHocAge]

Thank you for posting this excellent version of "Soave.." I love the mix of voices (all fabulous & accomplished) and the recording sounds great on-line. I agree Hampson looks more like the young Guglielmo, but he beautifully sings the (older) Don Alfonso role. This is a complex aria -- I don't think Hampson was just "jumping in".

[@celloguy]

*Wonderful* singing from both ladies, but Hampson is really struggling here. Thanks so much for the upload though!

[@Zva26]

I don't know what ears you're listening with, but I find this flawless. Hampson's counterpoint is the most difficult and tricky part of all. He sounds wonderful here.

AURA AMOROSA "Cosa serve? A battaglia finita fia la cena Per noi più saporita”, assim está em ação Na ária “Cosi fan tutte”, ópera que encena “Un’aura amorosa”, de Mozart, tradução: “O que é preciso? Quando acabar a luta, Faça o jantar para nós mais saboroso.” Assim será o fim da Covid-19 que enluta O planeta com a família jantar primoroso. Aqui tempo tem ampulheta, quando areia Acaba, nosso corpo físico se junta no chão. Semear o pão para termos uma boa ceia. A energia que sai das flores, dos pássaros, Dos rios e da rosa, cantada em cantochão, Cria a aura amorosa, ostentando lábaros.

[@havilahwilliams5503]

What are the lyrics in English?

[@andrewmargrave7518]

The conductor does a great job of balancing the orchestra with the voices. The orchestra plays beautifully. Most of the singing is attractive enough, though Hampson is flatter than a Persian rug on his first high E. But what was Renee Fleming doing wearing an outfit that was in itself a wardrobe malfunction?

[@onigbajamo]

+Andrew Margrave Don't exaggerate. She looked nice in it.

[@jphubert]

Why even mention her outfit. She sang beautifully. Hampson seemed troubled/taxed by singing that high and softly but was not so flat that it bothered me. Many baritone's find it hard to sing high and soft. This was a very credible rendition of the piece all in all. Thank you for posting it.

[@janetflier6192]

Andrew Margrave Are you kidding?? I guess you haven't seen some of her other outfits!

[@MrSkylark1]

Hampson covers his voice too much. He should listen to IGOR GORIN

[@dhyrumvaughn4944]

A couple things: 1) Hampson's tuning is way off in parts, no? 2) What is (or isn't) Flemming wearing? Inappropriate for a public setting much? This piece is my favorite from one of my favorite operas and once Hampson reigned in his intonation their voices blended very well together. Would love to hear more from this trio

[@RemyHocAge]

Yes I agree; Hampson should have been consistent. Maybe he was intimidated by the magnificent Graham & the popular Fleming. Fleming was fully covered by using a nude material, the type one sees on figure skaters. Graham is more exposed yet is appropriate for a TV audience. Wish the women had worn coordinating outfits. Not to match like Twins but Harmonious! Still, this is my favorite rendition. Thanks!

[@stewart335]

She's literally wearing a full length gown WITH SLEEVES. Some people just WANT to be offended. People like you wouldn't be happy even if she was wearing a sheet!

[@michaelkarski755]

chill dude, this material is in a color of skin and you can see that by its lower part, plus, seriously? That comment about her dress is ridiculous

[@rationalsceptic7634]

Hampson isn't off tune,it is called phrasing,the difference between good and great Singing

[@fluffyfour]

This is my favourite aria, but honestly I'm not sure these voices blend very well. I felt like I heard each voice as if they were three disparate singers, rather than the blended whole reflecting shared feelings and wishes for their departing friends.
