6 жыл бұрынMirages: Sabine Devieilhe - French Opera Arias. Album out 10 November 2017: wnrcl.me/mirages
Soprano Sabine Devieilhe’s signature operatic role, Lakmé, forms the starting point for her enticing album Mirages. A collection of opera and song in French, its theme is the exotic allure of faraway - and imagined - places and people. In addition to three numbers from Delibes’ opera, it features music by Berlioz, Debussy and Stravinsky and some rarer names: Thomas, Messager, Koechlin and Delage. Devieilhe is joined by mezzo-soprano Marianne Crebassa, pianist Alexandre Tharaud and the period-instrument orchestra Les Siècles under its founder, François-Xavier Roth.

The first time I heard this was about 25 yrs ago. It was a cloudy cold late November day. I was driving my car and turned on the radio. A very light fluffy snow started coming down ever so gently. The snow flakes were the size of quarters. It was so surreal just witnessing this weather phenomenon. Then this duet started to chime in. The two sinced together at the same time. It was what I would equate to a religious experience. My heart was taken back. Something in the ethereal world had placed me in the moment to witness both the weather and the song dancing together as one. I’ll never forget that day.

The balance is exquisite -- it's so easy for the soprano to dominate in this duet, but here she is playing the character, not just singing the aria, and lets the mezzo through. Superb musicianship, and a true duet partner. Her tone and delivery of 'bleu' just before the reprise of the chorus for the last time takes my breath away every time. Stunning singing. And Marianne Crebassa is the perfect foil, authoritative without dominating, supporting the soprano line and allowing her to float it effortlessly without having to compete. Roth supports them sensitively, and the period ensemble make it intimate. I think they knew they had it in the bag after this take

This soprano is Very good. But in a few places, her voice was just a hair...and I do mean just a tiny hair too bright? verdant? for my admittedly unsophisticated ear. Just a personal preference. I'm partial to Anna Netrebko on soprano for this piece, as her voice is "creamier" and soft around the edges, it just goes down smoother. But that mezzo, wow...absolute perfection. All in all, they sounded magnificent together, gorgeously blended and spectacular voices both.

Without introduction or fanfare, I played this video on the big screen for my 3rd grade students. There were a few giggles and rolled eyes but, as the piece continued, my students saw how special this recording was to me. The following day I played it again, this time with some biographical info on the singers and opera in general. There were no giggles. The following day I played it once more. The children (8 yrs old) shared smiles with me and each other during each chorus. On the 4th day, at the library, the children insisted that we share the piece with our librarian. The children introduced the song to her, named the singers and gave a brief summary of the story. When the music began, there was not a fidget, wiggle, or sound in the room except for the sublime music they had come to love. ps They also love Ella Fitzgerald and Esmeralda Spalding. :-) but not like they love this duet.

Air. Softened tone. Playful calibration of volume and rythmic agility. Crisp diction and sustained lines without strain and unnecessary bravura. Sheer palpable joy of singing that music and playing it together is a marvel of musicality. Am I dreaming? No. That is just a group of really and fully engaged musicians that are in love with material. Kudos to conductor François-Xavier Roth and his orchestra Les Siècles - for creation the hypnotic sonic atmosphere that evokes the trance-like state of suspended reality in listener. A lot of singers do that duet for its obvious beauty. But to make it anew to glow and shimmer in warm burnished tones - that requires a special sensibility and possession of means to express it. These two marvellous ladies stands out from the crowd of many even famous performers that took this duet on. Sabine Devieilhe & Marianne Crebassa seem to win it. That unshowy commited to music attitude is a rarity at any time anywhere. Mesmerizing sensuos sonic experience that uniqely delivered by engagement of all of this duet's performers - is the evidence of their artistic commitment. It's a good enough reason to be grateful for the opportunity of being transported for 6 minutes to something that closely resembles outer spheres. Merci, merci, merci...

There is definitely more context and depth than a non native French speaker singing this piece. Very imaginative and beautiful. The 1st time I heard the Flower Duet was when I listened to Charlotte Church. As a 16 year old, totally dismissed it lol. But. Years later, heard a different arrangement and I decided to give it another go and loved it. I think that there seems to be more depth when a soloist is performing a piece from their native country. It's like an American pianist playing a composition by Tchaikovsky vs a native Russian playing the same piece by the same composer 🙂.

Instead of "Subite s'empare de moi" (Suddenly takes me away), she sings "Sa bite s'empare de moi" (His cock takes me away) which makes Marianne *LAUGH.* (How do people keep missing that?) When Marianne is singing her line after, Sabine is reacting to her "gaffe" -- and when she glances over, Marianne just shrugs, as if to say, "So we have to sing it again. Not a problem."

It may be the advancement in sound recording, but the way these two voices complement each other, and each voice leaves space for the other is amazing. Forgive me, but I find when a mezzo is pitched against a soprano, the mezzo comes off second best - but not in this case.

You are half right. No man-made machine can ever reach this level of beauty. A machine would not even try. What would be the point? We are, however, not in the era of Artificial Intelligence. We are in the era of chatbots and learning algorithms under the title of "artificial intelligence" to generate buzz. These are programs that are programmed to repeat patterns. There's no intelligence there, artificial or otherwise.

@@fbarnea True AI would have no interest in artistry or beauty. It would require emotional intelligence, which a machine will never emulate, not without losing the privilege of being called artificial.

@@BadFluffy why do you think there is something special about emotions? Is there anything outside of natural reality that produces emotions or helps us understand emotions? You seem to state that emotional intelligence is not computational, this is something that mathematicians, physicists and philosophers have been trying to prove for centuries, and failed. Are you saying you found the holy grail?
