Top cover of this beautiful number from West Side Story. This lovely lady will always be my favorite vocalist whose passion for music gives all JOY in a broken world
Gosh. She is a natural performer. If she had have headed out the same road as the big show/musical performers she would have stormed the world. Anyway she comes across as someone happy and content in her own skin, like, she doesn't need it.
Like most european artist then, pretty much :) Perhaps known in just a couple of neighboring countries, and that's fine. Sometimes "discovered" (by americans) long after their career, or even after their death.
How is it that I have missed this!? I love Körberg and I have missed it!? And my name is Maria so when he sings my name in the beginning I get all weak in the knees...this is just so romantic! I love it! Their voices are perfect together as always.
What a joy it has been to see the development of Sissel as a vocalist and as a beautiful woman over the years. I do not have enough superlatives to describe her. Maybe Norwegian is a more apt language in which to try. Yes, I shall dream of her tonight.
They would go on to sing duets such as in Chess which has the better compositions and lyrics, but the professionalism and ambition shows through even here. Thank you for this upload!
In this West Side Story sequence Sissel sings Tonight, I feel pretty and Somewhere. I chose to split it up in 3 parts, but of course I can also upload it as one part. It is about 10 minutes long.
