Patricia Janečková and Alexander Rybak with the Janáček Philharmonic Orchestra in "GONG" Ostrava, Czech Republic. Conductor Heiko Mathias Förster. 4-10-2017
it's tragic that patricia died so young!! here she shows she can sing in english, which would have been the gateway to conquering britain, america & australia!! sadly, she will not be able to do that now she is dead, but the videos will be a reminder to any & everyone who watches them, just what a magnificent singer of all types of music, not just opera, she was!! patricia liked listening to rock music away from the stage, btw!
Just incredible. I live in New Zealand and one day I will make atrip to Europe for the purpose of experiencing a live performance by this immensely talented and committed artist
George Gershwin must be looking down from on high and telling his fellow angels. "Listen carefully, that is why I wrote music." This is the second version of 'Summertime' I have heard in the past year or so that has completely hypnotised me, the other was Angelina Jordan's, which was a more jazz orientated version.
Interesting to read your comment just as I am listening in succession to Angelina and Patricia and marveling at how this great song can be so different yet equally beautiful as sung by two great artists of different genres Long live Angelina and Patricia, we love you both.
Lousy Management is the reason. Vienna is at driving distance from Patricia's home and to this date she has not performed in the City of Music. It doesn't make sense. Utterly unfair.
You have incorrect nformation! Patricia performed in Vienna three times in last years - twice directly in Vienna (for the first time in 2012 - "Starry Night", for the second time on Christmas concert in Peterskirche 2015) and once in Abbey of Klosterneuburg (separate city right on Vienna´s northern borders - 2013).
Esperamos oírla cantar en el Teatro de Bellas Artes en Ciudad de México. Posee una voz maravillosa para una muchacha tan joven a quien esperan grandes éxitos en el mundo del Bel Canto
this particular video, 6/10, where she wears a black dress, is the one to recommend to people who have not yet discovered patricia janeckova. it's nice that she sings it in english and with more soul than anybody else has ever sung 'summertime'.
this is by far pj's best version of this song. in fact, it's hard to know of anyone doing a better version. don't forget, she's performing live and singing in english.
the most soulful and best version of 'summertime' ever, in the style it should be sung by pj. billy stewart's version is good but he sang it totally differently.
THIS IS THE BEST VERSION I'VE HEARD OF THIS SONG AND THAT INCLUDES ELLA, SARAH V, BILLIE H. SHE HAS A HAUNTING QUALITY TO HER VOICE WHICH SUITS THE SONG PERFECTLY.
maybe patricia should have a dvd of her 2016 new year concert in ostrava released in the uk, australia and america, as it show's her undoubted all round talent.
another appearance today by patricia in 'galatea and acis', one day only, before she moves on to 'romeo and juliet' on dec 7th. this is the best video of 'summertime' by patricia if you are recommending her to anyone.
