Adagio is an italian word, that means "Slowly". This is also used in music to define the pace of a music (a bit slow, between lento and andante) and also as a name of a piece of a sonata, concerto or symphony that is using that specific pace. The music from this song of Lara Fabian is a pop translation of an italian classic piece called "Albinoni's Adagio". It was written in 1958 by Remo Giazotto who was an admirer of Albinoni, a musician from the 17th/18th century. He claimed it was from him and gave his music this name but there is consensus today that he most probably has composed it himself. The classic music piece is globally famous and there were many different translations into different songs, with different music compositions, mostly operatic, and different lyrics (the band Renaissance, Daniele Licari, Sarah Brightman and Sissel Kyrkjebo for instance). But the most famous version, by far, is Lara’s version: it was translated into a pop song for her, she wrote lyrics in italian then co-wrote the english lyrics for it and is the original performer of these 2 versions. She kept the title Adagio and wrote a story with a double meaning: a woman that is awaiting to find her love / an artist that is awaiting the god of inspiration. This song has become a classic and has been covered by many : Shirley Bassey (!!), Dimash (Lara is his absolute idol and he covered several of her songs), Floor Jansen, Polina Gagarina, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Julie Anne San Jose, Giulia Falcone, Laura Bretan, Il Divo, Rimar, Vitas, Anastasia Luna, Evgenia Fanfara, , … They made great covers but none of these match the amazing storytelling performance of Lara, or her ability to use vocal subtleties to be in sync with the music, exposed in her live from the concert From Lara with Love. th-cam.com/video/bqoS-KOLV_4/w-d-xo.html Her italian version is also amazing. A famous italian version: th-cam.com/video/qf7xcMN-TYI/w-d-xo.html Or you can check her recent excellent renditions: - in Paris early october 2022 th-cam.com/video/BulgxI-8zj4/w-d-xo.html - In Tbilissi Georgia in april 2023 th-cam.com/video/RMT04_mX4dE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jzIpgs_LdgX1ZjSV
Nice reaction John, I hope you’re doing well🥰 Lara is so incredibly good it’s ridiculous, I also love it when she sings in her lower register😍 Imo no one sings this song better than her, love it! I also love the Italian version😍 Looking forward to the next one😊
Thank you for your reaction of my and our Queen Madam Lara Fabian . At 54 this year she will start her world tour 24 in April East-Europe and then she w'll be in Québec city, Montréal, Trois-Rivières , and Ottawa in Quebec and Canada in June . Sold out every where already . Thank you again i do appreciate .
Linda reacción! Hermosa canción e interpretación increíble de Lara Fabián, la mejor cantante e intérprete del mundo entero, la voz de cristal más bella y perfecta que existe! Gracias!
Yes, agree with you, her voice is so soothing, angelic. That's what make her stand apart from the rest. You will know her quality better by listening more from her.
I'm guessing the person who made the subtitle complaint didn't express himself well. Just a guess, but there are many copies of these popular performances where the uploader put accurate onscreen subtitles. Perhaps the complainant wanted _you_ to have the benefit of having one of those viewing experiences for your reactions. I could be totally wrong. 🤷
