Gabriela Benackova wurde mit ihrer Rusalka berühmt, obwohl sie auch mit anderen Partien nicht minder glänzte. Ihre ebenso klangvolle wie warmherzige Stimme verzaubert auf das Schönste. Das Miterleben des begnadeten Vaclav Neumann am Pult, der wesentlich zur Aufführungspraxis der Rusalka beigetragen hat, sollte dabei nicht vergessen werden.
Was fortunate to hear her magnificent performance of Janacek's Jenufa in NYC in Carnegie Hall in the late 80's. She was at her peak and the standing ovation after Act 1 of more than 15minutes still stands to this day (2020) as the longest ovation in the entire history of that great hall!!!!!
There's a complete recording of Rusalka with the same conductor(Neumann) and soloist(Benackova) on the Supraphon Label recorded in 1981. I highly recommend it!
Recorded in 1988... A certain "old school" formality about it all, from what musicians wore, to how they played and even the style of singing. Still lovely; a performance that has not just aged well, but is timeless.
Bravissima ;-)!! Such a beautiful song. Being Czech (Moravian, to be exact), Rusalka and Ma vlast always bring tears in my eyes. All beautiful music does, tho...
BRAVA! The best singer that performes this delicate aria/song so beautifully and so smoothly - as it should be. It is after all a water nymph that sings her devotion to her beloved and it must be done delicatly and softly. I have heard many singers and none of them succeds like this marvelous singer does. She really sings a soft song, not a melodramatic, overpowering aria. Very moving, thank you.
As Leopold Mozart advised his son Wolfgang; never make music that offend the ears, and Gabriela voice does not offend. Beautiful with no sharp edges, just velvety beautiful. My favorite version.
Being embraced by my mother,s breast , I lightened to this pensive song . Her soprano which is to the extent I hold my breath , is effulgent and exquisite .
Her incomparable soprano is the oasis of hearts of urbanites who are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city like London , Paris , Tokyo , New York as Megalopolis with unimaginable muderous crowds , dangers . From Tokyo in the dizzying Megalopolis ablaze with neon Which national are you watching this video ？
Glad to hear this. Fleming is a fabulous artist ( a Slovak heritage helps) but there is a difference in tone, not pronunciation, which Slavic artists convey. Cheers.
@palivap Inak to je super, že to vyzerá akoby to spievala česká speváčka... :) hlavne keď je Beňačková slovenka. Ale treba uznať, že jej čeština je fajn a ťažko sa to rozlišuje.
If it sparkles in the night sky of the big city like Tokyo , Paris , New York , London brightly and listens to this famous turn while watching the moon staring at us , the tears overflow ceaselessly and will drift . From Tokyo in your imagination Which national are you watching this video ？
Lovely recital, beautifully sung, of a beautiful number from Dvorak's RUSALKA, Act I :) ... but without the words in our own language, preferably on the screen but at least in the SHOW MORE section, much of the meaning of it all is lost ... :(
No, Ms Beňačková is far far better. Ms Fleming's Czech pronunciation is terrible!!! And it is only one reason why she cannot own this aria. Ms Beňačková is better also vocally....
Za mňa Beňačková. Pre jej citlivosť, jemnosť prednesu. Myslím, že táto ária nemá rada dramaticķý prejav, ktorý počujem u Šubrtovej. A aj preto, že pani Beňačková je slovenka.😘
So beautiful and with such great control and easiness!
Pro mě ta nejlepší a nejkrásnější Rusalka❤🙏🤲🏻🌹🎼😘🤗
I want to finish my last life while listening to her soprano under the cherry blossoms in full bloom at the shining night of the moon . 🍎
Nevím proč,ale pokaždé mi běhá mráz po zádech...Dvořák byl génius
How it has to be. Not slow, very rhythmical, simple, but warm and directly from heart. Vocally perfect.
I am meltiing

To je taková nádhera mám slzy v očích, paní Beňačková je absolutní špička v opeře. Paní Gábinko děkuji Vám za přednes. Zlata❤❤❤

Absolutely beautiful. . . right on in the top range that not all singers have.
There's a complete recording of Rusalka with the same conductor(Neumann) and soloist(Benackova) on the Supraphon Label recorded in 1981. I highly recommend it!
Dekuji z Nemecka!!!nejlepsi interpretace tohote arie!
I love the sound, the warmth the intonation of her voice , Grazie Gino
She is wonderful! I adore this aria...
me quedo con FEDERICA VON STADE
Recorded in 1988... A certain "old school" formality about it all, from what musicians wore, to how they played and even the style of singing. Still lovely; a performance that has not just aged well, but is timeless.
The "old school" is much better than this, too much nose!
omg, she is fantastic! Especially the second verse full of beautifull tender smooth tones, rarely seen nowdays:(
Preciosa canción a la luna.
Bravissima ;-)!! Such a beautiful song. Being Czech (Moravian, to be exact), Rusalka and Ma vlast always bring tears in my eyes. All beautiful music does, tho...
You don't have to be Czech for that to happen!
nejlepsi interpretace tohote arie. Dekuji z nemecka!
My favorite aria interpreted by one of my favorites. Beautifully sung! This is perfection!! Bravissima!!!
A beautiful aria !!
Very great performance !!
Beautiful voice !!
Je possède l'intégralité de cet opéra avec elle dans le rôle de Rusalka.
Elle a une voix magnifique !
My favourite version of this aria
Дворжак оставил после себя память. Весь мир помнит....

benackova and Lucia popp!!!!!!!!!!
i like lucia but i think her temp is a bit faster
Totally agree! My favourites forever
As Leopold Mozart advised his son Wolfgang; never make music that offend the ears, and Gabriela voice does not offend. Beautiful with no sharp edges, just velvety beautiful. My favorite version.
Que voz tan maravillosa, emociona de verdad, gracias por compartir.
Thanks so very much to whoever recorded this. Even in 2013 this is so perfect. Especially to Czech ears!
Find recording of Eva Likova.....very beautiful.
Even in 2022 ❤️❤️❤️
Brava!!!
❤❤❤
Возвышение Славянской Души. Славяне Вперёд!
bravo!!!!!!!!!!
Other than her soprano ,
there were no sopranos that conveyed the waves of impression and pleasure and marvelous feeling to the depths of my heart . 🍎
just beautiful !
Bravo!!!!!
Being embraced by my mother,s breast , I lightened to this pensive song .
Her soprano which is to the extent I hold my breath , is effulgent and exquisite .
Gorgeous. I love her voice so much and I had the pleasure of seeing her live.
Her incomparable soprano is the oasis of hearts of urbanites who are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city like London , Paris , Tokyo , New York as Megalopolis with unimaginable muderous crowds , dangers .

чудо!
Душа плачет...
Fleming chose Benackova singing O Silver Moon, conducted by Neumann with the Cezch Philharmonic as one of her 8 desert island discs
Glad to hear this. Fleming is a fabulous artist ( a Slovak heritage helps) but there is a difference in tone, not pronunciation, which Slavic artists convey. Cheers.
Tady už je na Rusalku stará a je to slyšet v hlase. Ale je skvělá, to se musí nechat.
Assoluta!!!!
По мне так лучшее исполнение.
@palivap Inak to je super, že to vyzerá akoby to spievala česká speváčka... :) hlavne keď je Beňačková slovenka. Ale treba uznať, že jej čeština je fajn a ťažko sa to rozlišuje.

Měsíčku, postůj chvíli, řekni mi, řekni, kde je můj milý?
Česko-slovenský :) ;)
母のやさしくいつくしんでくれたことが思い出されます。素晴らしい美声ですよ。
Now that is drag
@kotlikitoma mais si!!!! je t'envoie un message avec le lien pour l'acheter...
Lovely recital, beautifully sung, of a beautiful number from Dvorak's RUSALKA, Act I :) ... but without the words in our own language, preferably on the screen but at least in the SHOW MORE section, much of the meaning of it all is lost ... :(
Only one able to compete with Šubrtová :)
how I agree with you... Fleming's whimpering has ruined her technique and our enjoyment
@Micky701000 ?
a performance like this and people still wait for the orchestra to finish? sigh
DIE IDEALBESETZUNG
Дворжак эту арию написал для Габриэлы
Fleming owns this aria! She neither whines nor whimpers.
She cant sing czech to save her life so no she dont own this aria.
No, Ms Beňačková is far far better. Ms Fleming's Czech pronunciation is terrible!!! And it is only one reason why she cannot own this aria. Ms Beňačková is better also vocally....
Lydia Dugan no she doesn’t- Popp is the best for this aria
Never. Fleming even chose Benackova, as her favourite for this.
Fleming is a very much rated singer , she always over acted rather than focus on singing .
Pani Milada ŠUBRTOVA to zpívá lip
Za mňa Beňačková. Pre jej citlivosť, jemnosť prednesu. Myslím, že táto ária nemá rada dramaticķý prejav, ktorý počujem u Šubrtovej. A aj preto, že pani Beňačková je slovenka.😘
Karita Mattila wins 5-0!
In your dreams ;-)
