Bravo!!!

There is something about her voice that touches my soul. Some voices do that. This is one. Some make me put my fingers in my ears. I have a particular sound I like - pure, clear no screech and not much vibrato. And- All the training and technique can't give one a lovely sounding voice if it's not there already. I can't bear some voices that others love - like Anna Netrebko I hate it!

Just proves Handel was a great Opera Composer and stirred the emotions and the soul! I would say better than Mozart!

This voice falls deep into my soul. ❤

magnificent.

No words

This is a very deep and beautiful performance. I’m looking forward to seeing other artists in the role, with no competitive or cheap spirit. I’m sure I’ll love other performances, too, and I’ll treasure this one with the rest.

What a master! Sublime interpretation! Also, the setting and costumes correct for the original setting of Orlando.

What the heck is she starting this aria like that? Not in the score!!!

Ann Murray will always be Ariodante for me, but this is sublime. Even if the conductor made some questionable choices of tempo.

Luv Ariodante ! And this aria steals all ! Wonderful to hear Bartoli,Connolly ,Donato,,Janet Baker and so many others in this . I can't believe theyre was a time when I used to read about music and think I'd die before I ever saw a recording by contemporary composers or little heard Handel operas !

This is indeed a splendid performance, still I would recommend everyone loving this music to seek out Janet Bakers interpretation. The entire opera conducted by Raymond Leppard is available on youtube and is probably the supreme recording of this aria, or for that matter, any opera of Handel as far as I am concerned.

Watching again Sarah's sublime performance. I'm overwhelmed by how she always totally inhabits a role. We are so blessed to have her singing for us. Thank you Sarah for allowing us see you in one of my favourite arias of beloved Handel.

Glorious performance. Thank you for sharing this treasure. Congratulations.

O, let me forever weep: My eyes no more shall welcome sleep I'll hide me from the sight of day And sigh my soul away He's gone, his loss deplore And I shall never see him more

Nothing, no one, beats, the glorious Tatiana Troyanos, 1971. This is but amateur.

Absolutey stunning! Such a great performance.

I’m trying to find a world class, legendary British Opera Singer. (Don’t ask why 😂) so Forgive my naivety but could someone who knows a lot about opera tell me how Sarah would be regarded internationally. And is there anybody else you’d recommend ahead of her? Thanks

Hermoso. Adoro la ópera. Y mi sueño sería,estar ahy palpando desde cerca .me hace estremecerse mis sentimientos. Wuaooo bellísimo. Gracias por compartir. Saludos desde Ecuador

Bravissima

Per mia colpa? Per tua colpa!

Scherza infido!

The 'A' section is painfully slow. Loses almost all sense of forward momentum. Bravo to her for managing to sustain as much line as she did. But even an artist of her calibre couldn't be expected to carry all those achingly long yearning lines without the extra breaths she was forced to take

OMG, the feeling, the performance, the unison between the feeling of the singing and the music! This opened in 1735?!?!?! OMG I was born in 1984 and because of technology of my time, and the learning and discipline throughout the ages by scholars, musicians, singers, etc etc this music was passed on to me - a simple son of middle class laborers... I cannot be grateful enough, no matter how long I live!

It's amazing 🥺😍✨

I wish I had been party to this Live performance... but even as recorded here it is unforgettable. Such beauty of tone, emphases & technical variations in accord w the dramatic requirements of the music. Dame Sarah's voice is of the purest velvet.

What a fuck amazing!

Une présence très masculine et une belle voix intelligemment utilisée. Mais l'orchestre ne la suit pas et le basson est calamiteux.

Awful! Russell Oberlin would have sung this better

I just love her voice❤️

M. les contreténors, vous pouvez aller vous rehabiller.

One of my very favourite arias sung by one of my very favourite mezzos. So uplifting during this awful lockdown. Crying with joy......thank you dear Sarah.

I am so sorry but this is lamentable. Tatiana Troyanos is still the queen of this aria!

Very satisfying musically as well as dramatically

Thank you Sarah Connolly for this fantastic arie , Brava Dacapo , Dacapo , Dacapo .....

This is, by far, one of the best versions of this song I can find on the internet. The singer makes me have goosebumps, what a singing so filled with emotion

Fantastic! And not just the voice, but the acting. The trembling of the hands, the facial expressions, the vocal soaring from those prone positions - and the voice just soars!

Really appreciated the translation subtitles. Very moving performance. Acting superb. Liked the movement levels : she is very fit with fantastic support for the voice.

orgueil et prejuges je vous laisse! mais en toutes circonstances votre voix n est jamais la consonante de la mienne! autrement dit! votre voix ne fut n est et ne sera jamais representative de mes émotions

Absolutely peerless. She is magnificent

Desearía saber qué dice en español

Oh, how I missed HER in this year's run of Ariodante at the Vienna State Opera .. she is just spectacular in this role! Please come back!!!

i bow down before the goddess. freakin' sublime- and heartbreaking.

either way...as a Ranger, I'd do her

Stunning just stunning. What we'd give for a DVD of this broadcast with only 2 pretty poor ones available.

Stunningly beautiful.Such feeling, such passion, such sorrow. Thank you for upload.

Ma vidéo préférée !

Troyanos.... I keep missing you!

ok.... she is awful.... les arts florissants and Christie as always exquisite.

I'm not crying someone just stuck a treebranch in my eye.
