What a delightful surprise! She is a model of sensitivity, absolute truth of expression and abandon to the text and music: a very refreshing way of approaching classical singing indeed! She has the ultimate courage of sharing her unique humanity with us and that should inspire us to be more generous with our audiences and take risks instead of always controlling and wanting nothing more than being perfect: a rather limiting attitude that results in a lot of impersonal music making. Thank you and many good wishes!
I’ve been a life-long lover of classical music and am embarrassed to say that I only discovered this piece because of Resident Evil Village. Brava, Gillian! This brought tears to my eyes.
heard 10 famous singers do this, and this one is the best, with the ending only by Andre Bocelli better. But who wants to compare? Thank God for all singers, thank God for all composers!
Ho sognato che stavi a' ginocchi, Come un santo che prega il Signor Mi guardavi nel fondo degli occhi, Sfavillava il tuo sguardo d'amor. Tu parlavi e la voce sommessa, Mi chiedea dolcemente mercè Solo un guardo che fosse promessa, Imploravi, curvato al mio piè. Io taceva e coll'anima forte, Il desio tentatore lottò. Ho provato il martirio e la morte, pur mi vinsi e ti dissi di no. Ma il tuo labbro sfiorò la mia faccia, E la forza del cor mi tradì. Chiusi gli occhi,ti stesi le braccia, Ma, sognavo...E il bel sogno svanì.
I dreamt that you were on your knees Like a saint praying to the Lord. You were looking deep into my eyes, With a glowing look of love. You were speaking quietly, Asking me sweetly for forgiveness. That she be allowed just one glance, You begged, curled at my feet. I stayed silent and, with a strong will, Fought the irresistible desire. I had faced martyrdom and death; Still, I forced myself to say no. But then your lips touched my face, And my heart betrayed me. I closed my eyes, reached out to you; But I had been dreaming, and that beautiful dream vanished.
ONE SMALL SUGGESTION......AT THE END.......TAKE A SMALL BREATH.....LIKE A SIGH.....BEFORE SVANI........DONT MAKE TOO MUCH ABOUT IT....BUT IT WILL BE ENOUGH TO MAKE THE MARK AND GIVE THAT EXTRA EXPRESSED EMOTION.......OF A BRIEF DREAM...SLIPPING AWAY!

Ho sognato che stavi a' ginocchi, Come un santo che prega il Signor
Mi guardavi nel fondo degli occhi, Sfavillava il tuo sguardo d'amor.
Tu parlavi e la voce sommessa, Mi chiedea dolcemente mercè
Solo un guardo che fosse promessa, Imploravi, curvato al mio piè.
Io taceva e coll'anima forte, Il desio tentatore lottò.
Ho provato il martirio e la morte, pur mi vinsi e ti dissi di no.
Ma il tuo labbro sfiorò la mia faccia, E la forza del cor mi tradì.
Chiusi gli occhi,ti stesi le braccia, Ma, sognavo...E il bel sogno svanì.
I've been listening to some of the big name tenors singing Tosti and they can all learn from Gilliam Zammit!
Meravigliosa

When can we have a translation into English?
I dreamt that you were on your knees
Like a saint praying to the Lord.
You were looking deep into my eyes,
With a glowing look of love.
You were speaking quietly,
Asking me sweetly for forgiveness.
That she be allowed just one glance,
You begged, curled at my feet.
I stayed silent and, with a strong will,
Fought the irresistible desire.
I had faced martyrdom and death;
Still, I forced myself to say no.
But then your lips touched my face,
And my heart betrayed me.
I closed my eyes, reached out to you;
But I had been dreaming, and that beautiful dream vanished.
