Polish Singer!!

…I’ve been transported to the heavenlies… Pure class and top talent!!

o kurde, Polak :0

@Fru Gal Orlinski has released a number of CDs. If I remember correctly, he's released this aria as a single. This recording got a lot of attention. It's called 'Vedro con mio Diletto' by Vivaldi

Hate it. Shorts are not okay. Especially for occasion like this. It looks silly and inappropriate.

They thought it would be just for radio but when they got there they found out it would be camera broadcasted as well... That was the result and we love it haha

I was about to say the same, thanks❤😂

That's technique, not for show.

Like the person said above, it’s just the technique for playing piano. It makes it easier to move and press keys (I’m a pianist myself)

Called playing with your body.

Still love the vibe but that’s just how piano looks when you’re playing it correctly, especially for such an emotional piece!

No it doesn't. It's just very casual.

😂😂😂

I'm the same as you: a classically trained mezzo with asthma! I wasn't diagnosed with asthma until my 2nd year of college (when I suffered a severe, prolonged asthma attack). I took one lesson with a "top-tier" voice teacher during my 1st year of college (before I was diagnosed). At one point she asked me, "Do you have asthma? No? Then stop inhaling so noisily." It took all my composure not to burst into tears. Turns out I DID have asthma...but she was so unkind about something I had no control over.

@@joker6solitaire Oh man that's absolutely awful. Sadly there are really talented people out there who make very cruel teachers, and even if they are a "top" instructor, it means very little if they break their students' confidence and belittle them instead of working together with them where they're at. I hope you were able to continue your studies with a kinder teacher - thankfully I've had incredible luck in that area. Finding the right instructor who sort of "speaks your language" makes a WORLD of difference.

I was not wondering as my ear is not that good and definitely not absolute. But thank you!! The piano is also transposed, right? Else all the armonies would have changed

Yes, interesting, I wouldn't have noticed...it seems that the whole thing is being transposed down a third, from D major to Bb major. Two flats instead of two sharps, go figure.

ahhh -- ok. It felt weird, because the piano didn't feel like a b minor. I don't know why, but it felt like a "flats" minor, not a "sharps" minor

A month old comment but...could I ask what tearing is? Or what it may sound like? Just curious and thought I'd ask someone who seems to be more knowledgeable and can break it down for someone who isn't well versed in musical terms :)

@@Otsena I'm not completely sure myself (being a layman also), but if I had to take a crack at it, they are referring to the audio itself. So they are complementing both the singer, as well as the recording hardware. When you record really high decibel sounds, they can "tear" meaning lose quality and have random pops and scratchiness. Even a small amount of audio tearing can exacerbate fluctuations in the singers voice too.

​@owenstevens7151 i kinda thought they were meaning to say his crescendo was smooth haha

@@Otsena in crescendo when you fail to reach peak properly and have a crack, break or skip.

I think it may be that there is no break in how the vocal cords "slide up" into a high range without having to change to a falsetto or something. This a wild guess on my part, and I don't know this stuff, but I am very sensitive to the differences in how voices move through various ranges. The gift of these vocal cords and probably his care for them has produced this beautiful sound.

When you're learning performance it's so hard to just sit and enjoy the music when you're beaten on the head with all the technicalities of it. As much as I enjoyed singing and learning to play an instrument I didnt like being constantly reminded of my inferiority. I took a private lessons teacher that wouldn't let me get past a single set of notes without playing it almost exactly to their standards. It's great for a learning but doesn't make it fun to practice and experiment with the music.

I get the impression that a lot of classically-trained musicians end up hating music and other musicians.

...unfair ,a listener merely noted the singer sang the melody line lower....Frank Sinatra did that with some Hoagy Carmichael songs .....lower and slower.....added to the musicality of performance. Vivaldi picked a key , these singers sang another set of notes that is ,another key. Each "key " has its own colour.

@john blaine As someone who started out being classically trained, this comment resonated with me. When I was young and learning, I had natural ability (talent) that showed an affinity for music, so my parents had me in voice and violin performances early. At first, it was fun learning terms and how to recreate a piece with my voice or violin, getting praised for the final performance. However, despite having natural ability that seemed to take to even difficult music easily, there were so many course corrections done along the way for every single song (not just for myself, but for the group when playing with an orchestra or singing in a chorus) that it really did become almost like a burden to be around music. I had to take a break from it because I LOVED music and wanted to love it again. Unfortunately, a lot of people (several who I personally know) who continue with the rigors of classical training end up moving into the land of Hubris where their accomplished pieces, years of work with this or that maestro or maestra, and library of technical knowledge become their whole identity, which they have to share with EVERYONE whether they ask for it or not. The best thing I did to break away from that so I could actually enjoy music again was join a church choir where the conductor pointed out that I was technically correct when I sang, but there was no character, no true individuality to my performance. He taught me how to feel the music, be moved by it, and then put myself into it. I had never had that kind of encouragement before and it was life changing. Now, I can actually share something I love with my children in a way that fosters their love for it, too. There is value in knowing the technical aspects of music, but living in that world too much kills the appreciation of it (from what I've experienced and seen).

I appreciate this comment thread. I too as a young adult had a similar internal experience. Somewhere along the way I had lost the innocent love for beauty and I twisted music performance, technique, and knowledge into a self absorbed identity idol. I literally felt so much freedom when I changed majors from music in college. Music doesn’t play as large a role in my life as it once did, but I’m hopeful that I will continue to find healing in Christ, the creator and remaker of all things, and once again be able to enjoy music innocently and partake in it in thankfulness as part of God’s good created order. I will say, as Donna above did, that choral music did have a special way of opening up beauty while leaving behind the shackles of self absorption.

perhaps you can check out the chinese singer Zhou Shen then. you will be mind-blown!!

definitely not just a natural gift though. Talent can only get you so far, but to reach this level there was 100% a lot of time and effort into perfecting his technique.

@@poodle5421 Chopin University of Music 2009-2014, finishing with a Masters in Baroque Music then went on to Juilliard for another 3 years.

According to another classical professional singer, he's actually flawed in technique or rather training. Even though the quality of the singing is top notch, you couldn't expect him to sing a 3h Opera without his voice failing eventually.
