What a great personality! Even if she is just speaking she is philosophical, intellectual and deeply emotional. She was pure art and an inspiration even if she was just talking... wisdom and beauty was a constant part of her.
We just lost our 2nd oldest 100 year old cousin in Augusta GA, this interview helping me get through it . We will truly miss Ms Jessye performances/great lady, great singer.
Deeply honored to even have the materials to access such videos. Thankyou Jessye for your breathtaking contribution to Opera, you will be dearly missed.
What a women! A true godess... beatifull, intelligent, classy, and above all seems to be such a happy and content person with life.... what priveledge soul. Thank you for existing! Oh! And ofcourse, the voice, what a VOICE...
Already she was on a wheel chair and it is so sad to see. I heard she had a car accident.. The pain is over although in our hearts it is there as we are missing you. RIP.
For an outstanding interview with Jessye Norman, see her with Elinor Wahktel of the CBC in Toronto. Ms Norman is there to accept the musician humanitarian award with the Glenn Gould foundation.
Yes. My father was a very tough man and uneducated for the most part. I will never forget us seeing her sing on television when I was a little boy and he sat and cried when he heard her sing. It was so extraordinary. She was a special gift.
"Wagner is not yet played in Israel" is not true. And starting an interview with that remark is like throwing Jessye a hot cup of tea in her face and blame it on her that she even sings his music.
she has nothing to do with Wagner not being played in Israel, so it was truly a stupid remark and very disrespectful, music is music, politics should be left aside
I would like to know why they didn't opened her microphone while the video was being played? I bet her voice was so amazing as it was in the video... That sucks!
They could have said tonight we are celebrating JessyNorman.and than introduce the foundation ect. Clown show...no respect @ all. For this wonderful Laady
Not being Jewish and not having lost relatives in WW II I cannot judge how it feels to listen to Wagner. And maybe Wagner`s beautiful music cannot be seen independently from his theoretical work which is really shocking and full of bizarre and racist ideas.
I love Jessye Norman! But what a disgrace theater of this organizations. And how can you stay behind her during this useless theater? And the comment about Wagner.... what a disrespect....
@SHOWLINE ...Yes, her death Monday was related to complications from a 2015 spinal injury, which left her wheelchair bound. She's now resting in God's hands.
Had the enormous privilege to hear Jessye Norman sing in the early nineties. She was magnificent. May she rest in eternal glory.

Abraham Murillo Thanks, because they kept talking. There were at least five introductions.
God that interviewer is so annoying stop interrupting her and let her answer the questions!
I would like to know why they didn't opened her microphone while the video was being played? I bet her voice was so amazing as it was in the video... That sucks!

Correction Jessey
Jesseye
This annoying interviewer...it was so disrespectful how she negatively remarked on Wagner.
I love the earrings. Are they Swarovski crystal?
maybe someone else should have conducted the interview. im just saying.
Люблю Джесси - Дидону и Далилу.
With all due respect, you could cut the first 8 minutes off of this video for the majority of folks who want to see Jessye.
QUe pena que una gran exponente de Wagner... No haya podido decir nada... De el... Por restricciones ... NO CULTURALES... Mas bien politicas.
Not being Jewish and not having lost relatives in WW II I cannot judge how it feels to listen to Wagner. And maybe Wagner`s beautiful music cannot be seen independently from his theoretical work which is really shocking and full of bizarre and racist ideas.
Yes, eso fue una pena.
what a pityfyl shame that you could not have played Jesye singing Wagner. I wonder what Jesse really thought about that?
kkkkkkkkkk Já começaram a entrevista falando aquilo de Wagner quando chamam a maior interprete viva dele? HAHAHAHAHA
hi mark
8 minutes until Mrs.Norman begins to talk??????? Jeez
please. does somebody translate to portuguese ?
Was this filmed in Isreal?
Really, Israel?! Jessye Norman is known for Wagner as Oprah is known for Talk Shows! How insensitive and denigrating!
I love Jessye Norman! But what a disgrace theater of this organizations. And how can you stay behind her during this useless theater? And the comment about Wagner.... what a disrespect....
Great Jessye Norman, but what a disgusting interviewer ……….
is she on a wheelchair?
...It looks like she is. Hopefully, she's on the mend.
@SHOWLINE ...Yes, her death Monday was related to complications from a 2015 spinal injury, which left her wheelchair bound. She's now resting in God's hands.
being a interviewer is not her forte.
E
Why is she standing BEHIND Jessye Norman? And what a bore.
no one from August, Georgia talks with a British accent.
I love her fake accent. isn't she from Brooklyn?
Georgia. Fake? She sent most of her life abroad. You sound like where you leave..... especially loving there nearly 50 years.
its not fake, she a professional dammit!
She is a professional SINGER. But that accent is fake yo.
Listen, IT'S NOT FAKE!!!
I believe it is. Her fake accent is and act, lust like Price's. They're both American for crying out loud.
