Vocal Coach reacts to Mercedes Sosa - Gracias A La Vida (Live)

Casi, fue una soprano norteamericana excelente llamada Jessye Norman, casi contemporanea a la negra y que lamentablemente falleció el año pasado (igual que Mercedes a sus 74 años). Ojo que no quiero que suene como pedantería para corregir sino que es una oportunidad para conocer a otra tremenda artista

[@pablocostello6139]

Sabía que era una soprano del momento pero no me acordaba su nombre y entonces puse "un crítico",función involuntaria de ese momento en todo caso..Mi madre tiene el recorte de La Gaceta de Tucumán.En el mismo,Mercedes menciona que había cantado esa noche la zamba Agosto en Tucumán y parte del público a la salida del espectáculo le dijo con respecto a esa canción "Ud hace música de aquí",por los elementos de jazz de esa composición.La zamba era de Osvaldo Costello,mi padre,una de las tres que le grabó.

hi Beth, here is a translation of the lyrics to English: Thanks to life, which has given me so much. It gave me two eyes, that when I open them, perfectly distinguish black from white And in the tall sky its starry backdrop, And within the multitudes the man I love. Thanks to life, which has given me so much. It gave me sound and the alphabet. With them the words I think and declare: “Mother,” “Friend,” “Brother” and light shining down on The road of the soul of the one I'm loving. Thanks to life, which has given me so much. It gave me the pace of my tired feet. With them I have traveled cities and puddles beaches and deserts, mountains and plains. And your house, your street and your patio. Thanks to life, which has given me so much. It gave me the heart that shakes its frame, When I see the fruit of the human brain, When I see the good so far from the evil, When I look into the depth of your light eyes… Thanks to life, which has given me so much. It gave me laughter and it gave me crying. this is how I distinguish happiness from pain The two materials that make up my song, And your song, as well, which is the same song. And everyone’s song, which is my own song. Thank you to life, Thank you to life, Thank you to life, Thank you to life...

[@juanmanuelcastrillon3585]

I think at the end instead of "song", "singing" is more adequate

[@29248769]

@@juanmanuelcastrillon3585 you are, in part, correct; if I translate it literally (word by word) you're probably right. However the word "singing" is used in English only as a verb. In this particular case, when she says "Canto" she's not only referring to the act of singing, it is more of a noun, she also means this song, and the story within the song. Is like saying, "this is my story, my story is everyone's story, and everyone's story is also mine." Just as reference, I am originally from Buenos Aires, and I worked many years as an interpreter for a government, as such, I have to look at the context of the words and convey, not only the words, as acuratelly as possible, but also equivalent expressions. Many times, the equivalent expression doesn't use the same words, although in this case, it practically does. For instance, if you say... "La miré a los ojos" it would literally translate into "I looked at her eyes" but the correct translation would be "I looked into her eyes" even though the preposition "a" means "at" in this case, and not "into".

I am Danish. I first heard of her when her death was announced on the Danish news. There was a very short sequence of her singing “Gracias a la vida”. I sensed a tremendous energy emanating from her. The sincere and tender yet firm look in her eyes captivated me, and I felt as though she is looking directly into my soul.There was something about her, a “mystical presence,” which reached the deepest parts of my being. Every time I watched her or listened to her voice, I started to cry. I intuitively began relating to her as a mother-figure and discovered that I was healing from childhood wounds. As a result, I have spent many years trying to answer the question: What was the secret behind her impact? It has been an awesome journey..:) If you like to know more about my healing journey with Mercedes Sosa, I have included the story in the biography: Mercedes Sosa - The Voice of Hope

I loved your reaction to Sosa's voice. Her voice was one of the 10 best voices in the world at her time. Her career started when she won a radio contest when she was 15. She wanted to sing opera but her father didn’t allow it. She grew up in poverty and throughout her life she used her voice in solidarity with her poor, which gave her the nickname, The Voice of The Voiceless. In an interview with Don Heckman for LA Times in 1995 she says: "There are things that are more important than the vocal cords. It's what you feel when you make a sound, feelings of love, of solidarity with others. It's not about technique. It's about what is inside". I believe it is the combination of voice and personality and passion that makes her a singing legend. I spent 10 years researching her personal life and her story is really amazing.

Mercedes Sosa, was without doubt a world-class performer, but her influence went far beyond the borders of music. She is the unsung hero of Latin America. I have researced her life in depth for years and I would say that she is the female counterpart to South Africa's Nelson Mandela, the mother of South America (who could have become a world legend, had she spoken English and been male). She was blacklisted as being one the most dangerous people to the regime in Argentina in the 1970s, was arrested on stage in front of her audience and took exile in Spain for three years. On her return to Argentina, she became the underground reference point for the poor and oppressed, and an icon of democracy who fought South America’s dictators with her voice. That is why she was nicknamed, “The Voice of the Voiceless”. Here is a list of prizes and titles she earned which shows that she was much more than just a singer.

She is a legend not only because of her voice, but because of her integrity .This is how Joan Baéz describes her: "Ms. Sosa maintains a balance between craft and conviction that endows her music with a searing honesty and power. I have never seen anything like her. She is monumental in stature, a brilliant singer with tremendous charisma who is both a voice and a persona. She may not look like Tina Turner, but she can hold an audience from the stage. When we were singing in concerts together, I would weep all through her set. It embarrassed her, but one night I got down on my knees and kissed her feet. I hadn't been so moved by music in a long time. As far as performers go, she is simply the best.”

And the lyrics are sooo beautiful on top of all that.

Beth Roars reacting to Mercedes Sosa? Can be this most perfect?

I'm Paraguayan🇵🇾 but here we also love her. She had that virtue. To transcend through the whole world. A unique voice, a unique woman. She's much appreciated through the whole South America. We miss you Negra Sosa ❤️

[@emanuelnino6278]

You have been so respectful with such a iconic and historical Argentinian singer, thanks for that!

No soy musico pero se nota que la couch se emociona y vive con cada análisis, y admiro eso lleva la musica en el alma

[@camillerose8323]

A New Yorker critique once said and I quote "If the wind had a voice, it would be Mercedes Sosa". She was the voice of Latin America, she represents Argentina perfectly and we are so proud to say she's ours. Humble, down to earth, a poet, brave enough to say things almost nobody dared to say back then and with a voice that belonged to heaven. May she rest in peace now, but her beautiful music and soul will be alive forever ❤️

[@raulgailhac8585]

Tal vez tengas la apertura para escuchar 2 canciones más de Mercedes Sosa "años" y "como la cigarra", evidentemente oís de muchos interpretes latinos y de otras partes del mundo, pero lo recomiendo

[@AngelesBustamanteM]

great and unnespected reaction!!Mercedes... truly a legend. Watch for her "Zamba para Olvidar" probably the saddest love song in spanish, and utterly beautiful

[@redfox2881]

Hermosa canción

Not the saddest but one of the saddest. Merceditas is very sad as is El romance de el curro Palomo buy Juan Manuel Serrat.

Zamba para olvidar 💔😢

@@robertopics Y el comentario que encontré sin buscar... Coincido! Esa canción es demoledora. Sólo superada por "La Construcción ", de Chico Buarque que, además de ser una joya impresionante, es tan hermosa, tan brillante y tan trágica que me mata. 💓

As an Argentinean myself like the famous singer you reviewed (Mercedes Sosa) it moves me that it moves you to listen to her sing. Thank you, Beth, for this moment!

[@KMERON73]

Una de las grandes voces del folclore argentino, gracias 😊 por esta reacción, saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷

[@Robert_Herring]

What a fantastic performance. I like that you mentioned about her voice having presence even at low volume. I come from the wind instrument realm, we deal with the same thing. How to play pianissimo loudly.

[@MercedesSosa-AnetteChristensen]

Her voice was one of the 10 best voices in the world at her time. She wanted to sing opera but her father didn’t allow it.

[@vaincremalassitude]

La Negra Sosa siempre me saca una lágrima. By the way, your smile is so contagious, I love you Beth!

[@HipoClips]

If you didnt know her. I recommend listening to more songs from her because her voice is really impressive

04:58 "Thanks to life, that give me a lot. It gives me the hearth that shakes the frame. When I look at the fruit of the human brain, When I see good people so far from evil people. When I look at the botton of your light colored eyes". That is what she said in that part of the song.

My dear, I really enjoyed your review and reaction. Mercedes is an icon in Argentina. Whenever I listen to Her, I feel like crying. So emotional. ♥️♥️♥️

[@sunrivers4823]

She was an Argentine folklore singer, and this song is beautiful and it always makes me cry. She talks about the life that gives so much, gave her his voice, the song and the words to be able to transmit it.
