Прошёл год после моего прослушивания вашего исполнения этой Арии, и вот опять я услышал её в исполнении Тынгиза Гугшвили , восторг и слезы счастья от услышанного .❤❤❤❤❤
My uncle Ralph put this piece on a tape along with "The Anvil Chorus" and two pieces I've forgotten. This one, along with the last movement from "William Tell Overture" which became the Lone Ranger theme are easily my two favorite classical pieces. Once heard, never forgotten.
In "Three Men in a Boat", the comic work by Jerome K. Jerome, the narrator tells of a past trip on the Thames with a young lady. They are alone in a rowboat, and think they are lost because a familiar landmark has been removed. When they finally realize what has happened, and that they are on the right path after all, they are so relieved that they sing the soldier's chorus from Faust the rest of the way home. Two amateurs singing this without musical accompaniment outdoors is probably not the best way to appreciate the music. I wonder what words they used. ;) This is an impressive production, but they're making me nervous with those open flames in a theater setting. Great care must be required.
The "Soldiers' Chorus" is a powerful and memorable piece from Charles Gounod's opera "Faust." It's a rousing ensemble number that typically occurs in Act IV of the opera. The soldiers sing of their bravery and loyalty to their country, expressing their readiness to defend it at any cost. It's often performed with great energy and passion, making it a highlight of the opera.
I love this soldiers chorus... it's reminds me of the days when I was in a high school choir more than a decade ago... this was prescribed once in a competition back then.
To Sylviebasyl2835, I goofed I didn't" observe "the torches how they were flickering! I noticed that they were but it escaped me that it was/could have been outside. I didn't give it much thought.
"Oh Jemima, look at your Uncle Jim! In the village duck pond learning how to swim. First he does the backstroke, then he does the side. Now he's under water swimming against the tide!"
@@sylviebasyl2835 Thank You for the information. Now that I know it seems more obvious , I .should have noticed it earlier the way the torches flicker!
I think it was in 1978 (the 77-78 season) performing in this masterpiece with Michigan Opera Theater, and the New York Times wrote: "MOT's production shames the MET!" That was and is really cool!~
