Transcript for those who don't understand Russian: 3:59 Obraztsova: Not bad. The only thing is that the higher - the wider in terms of resonance. You sing narrowly. Pupil: Little space. Obraztsova: Little space. Little space. And further from yourself. And now let's try "da da ri da da ra..." Pupil: After the second one? Obraztsova: Well, however you want. 4:57 Obraztsova: Not "mio" but "meau". I've sung "meau" all my life. 5:11 Obraztsova: With your chest. 5:25 Obraztsova: Lower it. Straightaway. Right there straightaway, like into a well. 5:40 Pupil: I've never had enough strength... Obraztsova: Because you keep it here (points to her mouth). But you should lower it and continue lowering. Like into a well. 6:21 Obraztsova: There was a woman named Taisia Syirovatko. A brilliant singer in the Kirov theatre who was also a pupil of my tutor. She was much older than me and already sung in "Ruslan and Ludmila", you know, all those male roles. And I asked her: "Taisia, how do you sing like that?". And she said: "Lena, imagine that here you have a boot and you have to press it down like that". I tried and I managed to do it. And all of this also managed. Like a boot. I remember it clearly. How she explained. Pupil: Made it clear. Obraztsova: Made it clear, right. In the very beginning there was some inaccuracy. The very beginning. Have you got tired? Pupil: No. 7:18 Obraztsova: Lower it. 7:43 Obraztsova: No, no, no. You should take a breath before "il tetto". 7:57 Obraztsova: Now it will be the way Verdi wrote it and not the way your tutor did. 9:05 Obraztsova: Wider. 9:30 Obraztsova: One more thing. The three notes... Pupil: Stronger emphasis. Obraztsova: These together. Got it? Pupil: To connect them. Obraztsova: Got it? Pupil: Yeah. 9:50 Obraztsova: Did you get it or no? Is this my pencil? I don't know. It's better to take than to leave. 10:25 Pupil: Should I continue? Obraztsova: Well, what else is there to do? 10:38 Obraztsova: No. Too close to your face. 11:05 Obraztsova: Say it, say it! 11:29 Obraztsova: Go, go! 11:40 Obraztsova: Let's go! 11:57 Obraztsova: Say it. 12:27 Pupil: Thank you, I got it now. Obraztsova: For you to remember. 12:31 Obraztsova: So, why I was swinging my arm here... We take higher notes inertially, inertially. If there is such a possibility of acceleration, we go up inertially. That way it will be easy. Pupil: To fly. Obraztsova: Huh? Pupil: To fly. Obraztsova: No, that's what I always say. When runners run with these... fences. You can't stop in front of a fence because then you wouldn't be able to raise your leg. Inertially. He is hopping like I don't know what. And doesn't understand how he's doing it because he's doing it inertially. But if he stops then that's it! Pupil: He is not running anymore. Obraztsova: Here we have the same thing. Got it? Pupil: Yes. Obraztsova: Alright, cojob 13:15 Pupil: I also have "(something in Italian)". Obraztsova: Okay. "Accerba volutta"? Pupil: Yes. Obraztsova: Familiar motif. And also "AccerBA Volutta" straightaway! Pupil: And still. I'm always stopped. I learnt by your recording: "(something in Italian)". Obraztsova: Nothing bad. Pupil: They all stop me. Say that, after all, it should be (shows something on the sheet). And every time I don't know how and where to sing. Obraztsova: What? Pupil: Not how it's written but "(sings something in Italian)". And every time I don't know how to sing. Obraztsova: Don't get it... Pupil: When you did that recording you sang: "(sings in Italian)" Obraztsova: Yeah... Pupil: And now all concertmasters pester me... Like it's written... "(sings in Italian)". Everytime I don't know how to sing. Like it's written... Because in the recordings... Obraztsova: While you're singing "che" you won't slip to an "F". It's better to sing "F" flat rather than to squirm on these "A"s and not take an "F" flat. 16:05 Pupil: Not enough, right? Obraztsova: Not enough. Not enough space. Pupil: Can I sing one more time? Obraztsova: We're changing "the power of sound" to "the space of sound", so when we smile we don't have to squirm. Pupil: The space will increase. Obraztsova: You'll have that. It will either be the way you're doing it now: "(makes an imitative sound)" or you'll just smile and there you'll have a wonderful "E". 16:48 Obraztsova: (sarcastically) If only you pushed your lower jaw away that would have been ingenious. 17:25 Obraztsova: Wait. It should be happiness! Finally, he has come! You're singing "(makes an imitation)" as if he were ugly, old and limping. 18:50 Obraztsova: Straightaway! Pupil: I'm done. Obraztsova: Got weary. Pupil: Sleepless night. Obraztsova: Come on... 19:45 Obraztsova: Okay. Go home. Pupil: Now I won't leave here. Obraztsova: Good job, good job.

The big difference is that the vocal cords of Obraztsova are so healthy and healthy trained over the years that the poor singer can not ever get this sound if she doesn't know how to train the chords and get them clear in the vowel THAT is the most important issue. She can sing as loud as she wants but it will, in this way, never sound healthy, although a beautiful voice. I hear already weakness in the middle voice and she is still so young. God has of course Obraztsova beautiful soul and God bless her but this was not a good lesson.

Sanja Lukic , Obraztcova has speaking voice of an old women and girl has voice of young woman. Also Elena speaks in microphone, how can you compare? I don't see soprano here. Beyond of all many people suppose that Elena was not natural mezzo but soprano

@beachfanatic2010 4 жыл бұрын

This has nothing to do with age! It has to do with nature. The student DOES NOT HAVE ANY PRESENCE IN HER LOWER REGISTER. I could agree that sometimes Obraztcova could sound more like a Spinto soprano than a real mezzo. One thing I am sure of, is that the student is not a mezzo soprano! The voice is too light and way too bright to be a mezzo!

Only a STRONGE CHEST can bild a STRON TOP! That's the ONLY WAY TO SING (Not my quote, that's Callas sayng in the julliard masterclasses in the 70's). The mezzos are all dead, Fassbender and Ludwig are alive, but they are too old to sing anything... I'm pretty sure the future os the low mezzo/contralto voices are in the hands of the new generation of countertenor... Yep, countertenor... The female sings are so terryble in chest voice now days that the countertenores will take they places (And i'm not talking about the white blond cute looking ones).

@kin-no-choo 2 жыл бұрын

WHAT!? COUNTERTENORS ARE SO AFFRAID OF USING CHEST VOICE SAME AS MODERN SOPRANOS! listen to Scholl. he's low notes sound like mumbling. improper mask singing. it's all wrong about modern countertenors. there is Jarousky and Orliński. ok. but they just don't mumble, yet they also do not have appropriately developed muscles' sets. for a male with a nice head voice it's possible to sing the same way that women are singing, yet now even the women are singing wrong. ok- this ladies (ach my beloved Elena...) are fine. yet... ehhh... modern opera is dead 🥲

@@kin-no-choo , non possiamo paragonare Elena con Orlinsky e Jarussky che sono nulla nella storia del canto.
