Rest in peace cousin...she was my grandma first cousin...my mom's second cousin.my 3rd cousin..I had fun the few times we were all together..I'll miss u.u and Emmie and grandma Mamie up there chilling I hope..love u see u again
Sang this in my choir... but this is taken to new heavenly heights!!! The breathing.. phrasing.. color.. she never disappoints.. and that’s were I’m going also
Our PBS just rebroadcasted this performance two days ago. OMG! I can’t get this one out of my head now. I love her doing this, maybe more than anyone else. ❤
@@kimhoitomt8527 I agree it's a great performance (also "Ride On King Jesus" and "You Can Tell the World"). If you haven't done so, check out Marian Anderson's version of "Deep River" and "O Lord, What a Morning".
Wow. The spirituals must not be relegated to genre, or culture. They are altogether different... They are the absolute “beauty” of a crying soul clinging to faith.
Dave Hobbs The spirituals are the songs of black slaves who had great hope! Even though that " hope" didn't save them from daily torture and humiliation from their Christian slave masters!!!!! And because of this it is uniquely black art form from a black experience! However , when you say " They are the absolute " beauty" of a crying soul clinging to faith" you have spoken the absolute truth!!!!!
The problem in America if you are not white you never hear for someones else talents, Mrs. Norman was hired to do my husbans funeral. but I guest I have to find someone else to sing her song, for the funeral. RIP
@@elmermt Sorry for your loss but I don't understand - Jessye died 30 September 2019 - your post is sometime September/October 2020 so I am struggling to understand the timeline? Also, Jessye was honoured the Keendy HOnours in 1995 and was highly recognised in the US and Europe (I should add I'm not American)
@@DAS1962 yes this lady was and still loved my millions allllllll over the world. By all races. Her being black didn't stop her or them from loving her
WOW. This song came up in my adult piano course book and I was unfamiliar with it so went searching for it should sound. I also had not heard of Jessye Norman - What a Soulful performance. Privileged to experience it, even it is only on TH-cam. I can only imagine what it must have been like Live.
Once again she proved why I adored her and how she can lift your soul from the depths of darkness ,never loose faith in your self and never give up ,RIP
Ive spent my entire life listening and playing classical music. This is the most extraordinary recording there is. I’m so tired of seeing racist, far -right rants on you tube. It makes me depressed. My own country Ireland has succumbed to this too. And then you find Jessye Norman- the very best of humanity. So good in fact that it reaches the divine. Her memory lives on.
Maravillosa, grande Jessye Norman. Sensibilidad, técnica y fe porque para cantar tan bien esta melodía hay que creer en lo que dice. Magistral. ¡Brava!
Deep river, my home is over Jordan, Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into campground. Oh, don't you want to go to that gospel feast, That promised land where all is peace? Oh don't you want to go to that promised land, That land where all is peace? Deep river, my home is over Jordan, Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into campground
She definitely had that black girl magic..her poise..her voice just watching her now is so moving ..it is Thanksgiving day about 3 something am... so moving.ripower queen.
It's a shame that most church music is confined to the likes of jumpin' and jivin' contemporary jibberish. We are cheating our youth of beautiful, sacred music and it's glorious saving power.
The great Jessye Norman. I just listened to her rendition of this song, next to Marilyn Anderson's. Both were great voices, but Anderson's rendition is more straightforward, less "artistic," and to be honest, I think Anderson had the better voice...at least in the lower contralto registers which are key in this song. But both are great and we are privileged to have had them (or at least their sound) in our lives.
I feel like I'm floating, listening to this piece. Unique. Powerful voice. Rest in Peace, Queen.
Amen amen
What a moving, touching and soulful singing! Jessye Norman is my favorite gospel singer with Marian Anderson. (from Japan)
Rest in peace cousin...she was my grandma first cousin...my mom's second cousin.my 3rd cousin..I had fun the few times we were all together..I'll miss u.u and Emmie and grandma Mamie up there chilling I hope..love u see u again
You my dear are blessed!
No one has mentioned how brilliant the accompanist followed her too. Beautiful in every way
The Angels needed her back. Thanks for lending her to Us RIP Sweet lady
You make me cry. Amen.
There will never be another like her. Goddess of song. Rest sweetly, beautiful, powerful soul.
Amen...with tears running down... Amen.
Never be another one like her...NEVER
Allí the registres, magical voice. I agrer tour coment.
Registros todos. Estoy totalmente de acuerdo con su comentario.😊
Gracias, Santiago.
☘️🕊🕯🙏

There are no words…phenomenal. If you don’t feel that, you literally have no soul. Wow ❤
Probably the most beautiful rendition of Deep River ever !
Lorraine Hunt Lieberson has a great one, too.
I agree, that was an exceptional performance
Mahalia's version is also remarkably beautiful
Oh yes.
Sang this in my choir... but this is taken to new heavenly heights!!! The breathing.. phrasing.. color.. she never disappoints.. and that’s were I’m going also
Missing this wonderful woman.
Overwhelming singing. Only a phrase of her singing impresses me so deep. She was absolutely one of the most valuable treasures of our time.
This woman was simply majestic.
Diva.
This was one of Marian Anderson's signature songs, and she (at age 93) was in the audience at Carnegie Hall that night.
Love that image/story
Mis Anderson was her inspiration. GREAT !
Amen.

Absolutely impeccable from the first utterance to the final breath. Unmatched.
True
Than you for posting. Some of our so-called screaming stars of today should listen to this great lady and learn how to sing.
Amen
Too beautiful for words

Note, all slave masters weren't Christian. Remember that.
Yes!!! The Dark Night of the Soul.
Wym not relegate to a culture 🤨🤨
How true
Wow. Just, wow.
Watching again and again...
It's now 2.021 and she's still greatly missed.
Jessye Norman was magnificent.
She died much too soon, I miss her so much. Thanks for her performances on TH-cam and my collection of her recordings.
The problem in America if you are not white you never hear for someones else talents, Mrs. Norman was hired to do my husbans funeral. but I guest I have to find someone else to sing her song, for the funeral. RIP

Made even the simple sublime.
3 times i was Lucky to hear /see her in France .All théâtres were too small for such a Lady ❤
Her voice is so beautiful. A mature motherly sound. I want to always sing opera, no matter how diffère it is for today
RIP Angel! We will remember you forever ....You `ve gone too soon...
Magical singing. Wonderful performance of great song.

Jessye and I were neighbors a year or so ago...She could sing and literally blow the roof off!
Transndence.Thank You for sharing.💙💙

감사합니다 은혜 충만한 제시.....
Fantastica, l'unica che può stare al pari di Marian Anderson ... il contralto prediletto da Toscanini
Agree 100%
I honor her legacy
내가 아주 어렸을적부터 좋아하던 노래가 이분의 노래였나 봅니다
❤️
Singing this at choir atm
