Legendary Ewa Podleś floods Cara Sposa with endless Tears and Divine end Cadenza 

above all the Dives to Low voice are used as High Art form to serve the Emotion and not as an Imbecile exhibition of sound... this is an interpretation for the ages

jmiller05 Off-topic but I'm curious 'JMiller'... Are you fan of Whitney Houston? If so, what did you think if her voice in her prime? Also, have you seen this performance? I Am Changing: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FvWdnimqgeA.html This is undoubtedly one of the most vocally astonishing live stage performances of any singer to have ever graced popular music. There's no doubt in my mind that if Houston were operatically trained she would have been a complete force to be reckoned with. Furthermore, from listening to this performance alone, I say that she definitely was a full-blown 'Spinto-Soprano' in her early years. At 3.19 she hits a C6 that is almost operatic in power, solidity and pinpoint accuracy. At 4.19 she belts and sustains a monumental Ab5. At 5.35 she then belts and sustains a Db5 for a whole ten seconds without the slightest wavering in pitch and with such clarity also. It's absolutely masterful singing for a contemporary singer. She was 22 YEARS OLD here also. The Voice of Callas/Price reincarnated as a Pop-Soul vocalist. :D

Когда упокоилась великая Эва?😢

Nie chodzi o to, że jest niedoceniana. Ona jest doceniana, ale za mało jej talent jest pokazywany na świecie. Mali ludzie boją się ludzi wyjątkowych takich właśnie jak Ewa Podleś. Ona ma silną osobowość, jest perfekcjonistą i profesjonalistą, a poza tym ma "tą iskrę bożą", budzi to podziw i zazdrość. Przyszła mi na myśl Bernadette Manca Di Nissa (kontralt o innej barwie niż Ewa Podleś), moim zdaniem też jej talent nie został właściwie pokazany w "świecie wielkiej Opery". Wielka Sztuka broni się jednak sama.

was :/

@@LohengrinO I know. But this video makes her still alive to me!

I agree with you completely. Ewa Podles has perfect control over her breathing when performing this aria. For me, it was best interpreted by contralto Cara Sposa. This tearful performance is second to none.

I have never cried in any other Baroque performance in my life... this is monumental... let the Imbeciles of the Met invite singers like ... or ... or .... singing Rubbish and Interviewing each other revealing to us even more the Imbeciles they are

she doesnt need any promotion... she is a Legend and she will remain so forever it is just that in our days more than ever it is the Mediocrities that rule

Considering that there aren't many official recordings of Her, not many will have a chance to know and appreciate Her

she is not being hired by major recording companies huh? unbelievable :/ she is a Miracle of Voice and Musicianship

@@LohengrinO Most definitely! To make matters worse, I just listened to LHL sing *Cara speme* from the Sellars production of *Giulio Cesare.* Why do I do this to myself?!? I must be a musical masochist!!

@@brookeggleston9314 No you are blessed I haven't slept in several days listening to this 50 plus opera list..

a Voice for the Centuries... Ewa was born a Legend!!! the only alive Legend right now

a voice giving life to our life.

..or floods our lives with Tears which is the ultimate Cathartic of the Soul

You got that right. Ewa Podles is the only legend that is still alive today and we better be praying and thanking God that she's still doing it. I'm in college and let me tell you if I need any tips on how to sing Handel, Ewa is my go to singer. Such an amazing pathos and ethos she sings with this relatively boring and nauseating genre. Such incredible sounds and an even better musicianship.

Agree entirely

stunningly beautiful... listen to it carefully with your Soul and its ornaments will make you weep at the end... it is Monumental!!!

The contralto voice is extremely rare, even in popular music. A genuine contralto must have a highly androgynous timbre and according to Podles herself have innate agility and a good extension. Most 'contraltos' singing today can sing within a contralto tessitura but they are not contraltos.

Check out Delphine Galou.

Rachael Lloyd - goes up more than down, as it were.

eternalsilverlight Look up Marie-Nicole Lemieux and Nathalie Stutzmann

Yes , Elzbieta Towarnicka Lacrimosa.

the piece is called Anakonda and the singer is the legendary Niki Minaj

No, I meant the one with Ewa Podles.

Lohengrin O - and where do I find that?

Lohengrin O - No, I meant the one with Ewa Podles, not that one, which I haven’t heard.

@@LohengrinO lmao

@@JacquelineLanceTenor Do you know what year this concert was?

@@roblessusan19 I believe it was 2007. *Yes, just checked. Moscow 2007.
