Exactly what I thought coming across the thumbnail. Her automaton actions are heightened (as well as her hair) by the Bertonesque effect. She’s dazzling!🏳️🌈🤨🏳️🌈
I desagree. It is extremely clean and bright. And the performance is outstanding: Sabine achieve with her performance (singing and acting) the true "unheimlich" of the Tale of Hoffmann ("The Sandman").
I saw part of this on Instagram and came to TH-cam to see if I could find the entire song and luckily I did. Sabine is amazing. I had never heard this piece before, I love it. Jeff❤❤❤❤
It is admirable that you wish to voice support for your friend/countrywoman/???, but it is not necessary to compare the singing of one soprano to another. In this instance, it is even unkind. Sabine Devieilhe has a very well schooled voice with a superior technique. She is very polished performer with a high coloratura soprano voice (in one cadenza she went up to Ab in the altissimo). Patricia Janeckova is a charming lyric soprano with a moderate range of only up to an Eb. She is young, but I suspect, based on the New Year's Eve Concert I just watched, that she is done with training and this will be the extent of her ambition. She will sing in operetta where the demands on her slim technique are few but she will be applauded and paid and for many that is enough (Sarah Brightman, Charlotte Church, etc.). Madame Devielhe will have a successful career as one of the greatest coloratura sopranos in the world and she will always be the First Soprano on any program.
i know you did not reply to me. but yet your comment shows me, how little i actually know about opera, singers, techniques and the common 'opera-language' this is exciting! so much stuff to discover :)
This is no woman- This is a Goddess!! Her technique is stunning and her pitch is perfect!! I love the interpretation as well. Ms Devielhe is truly a master of the art of Opera! If I ever have the privilege to see her, I'm bringing flowers!
I love how she plays this character! She's creepy and refined like a Stepford wife, not an animated and silly child's dolly as most performances are done. Her voice is stunning perfection, so with all that, you can't take your eyes off her. LOVE!
Agreed, I find myself skipping around the videos of many other performances of this aria, because the "doll acting" is usually a little cringeworthy. Sabine is masterfully reeling us in
3:33 is where slayage begins. I love Natalie Dessay, Diana Damrau, and Luciana Serra, but none of these three had anything like 3:33. This is the best version overall. There are instances where I prefer what one of the other three did, however, this IS the cleanest version.
robert111k Désolée, mais nous sommes bien nombreux, des initiés, à ne pas être d accord avec vous ! Sorry, but, so many , myself included, and we are not some random listeners, and , we absolutely don’t agree with you !
I LOVE the dynamics in her performance! Also, the hair and movements are clearly inspired by Mars Attacks, which is brilliant because that character was a disguise, moving with a very inhuman quality. It's a nice departure from the clearly clockwork-y movements of some other performances.
Literally screaming, with perfect pitch, timing and diction, at top of her lungs. Simply unreal. It must be an amazing feeling to be able to do that with your voice.
@@susanvaughan-schiele210Of course she is screaming !!! There no good singing in any of this. It is an other very squeaky thin voice from the French tradition like Dessay and Robin who were also shrilly screamers.
Jeff, the God of Biscuits this is pretentious opinion of academia. It is narrow-minded to decide a sound that doesn’t exist in French language is superior to the more natural rétroflexe. There are many unusual sounds in German, so why are those allowed when rétroflexe and nasal are discouraged in favor of things that “sound better” but undeniably make the singer harder to understand for native speakers?
Unreal. She is a treasure.The control she has over her instrument is a master class in technique. She drives the aria, the aria isn't driving her. She interpolates the A, but it doesn't become all about it.
I don't know how many times I watched this. It's close to hundreds probably. The satisfaction I get out of her high notes is uncomparible. It's the moment when Anton Ego eats the ratatouille. It i so good, it brings tears to my eyes. Everytime. Just amazing.
Continuando la tradición de las célebres sopranos ligeras de sobre agudos estratosféricos: Madò, Pons, Dessay, Sabine es BRAVISSIMA!! Maravilloso timbre, color aterciopelado, felicitaciones a la nueva Reina de las óperas de Bravura!!!
I have been watching diff versions of this for a few days now, I only just discovered this performance. It is so entertaining to see each interpretation!
I love how she bends the virtuoso requirements to underline the frozen mechanic of the clockwork doll. There is nothing "alive" in her coloratura, it's shining plastic. And that's intentional. Not many singers would be ready to forgo the pure beauty of sound for the sake of the character. And look at her hands, rigid like talons... A very fine performance.
C'est extraordinaire, c'est magnifique, et oui... un la bémol... comme Dessay... elles ne sont pas beaucoup... quelle merveille!!! Même après la dixième audition aujourd'hui j'en ai encore les frissons... Quelle beauté.
Mars attack Oui 😊Il y a une ressemblance, cet air est tellement fou, l'histoire par elle même aussi, il est difficile pour un décorateur de rentrer dans l'histoire 😘la voix est excellente.
A-FRIGGIN-MAZING!! I agree. I've never heard this done so impressively! And with such easy. I actually don't mind the slight nod to Mars Attacks. I thought the whole thing was just brilliant
French Lyrics Les oiseaux dans la charmille Dans les cieux l'astre du jour, Tout parle à la jeune fille d'amour! Ah! Voilà la chanson gentille La chanson d'Olympia! Ah!

If I could sing like this I would NEVER shut up. I'd sing in my sleep!
drôle
Relatable
😂😂😂😂
The breath control is just out of this world. Those silky high notes r to die for. She slayed this one 12/10
Agreed
her pitch is so perfect...it's almost scary...even during her extreme coloratura...impressive
Was E above high C? Amazing.
@@RustyRogersit was A flat above high C
The coloratura made my hair stand on end in the best way
I love the nod to "Mars Attacks" lol
I know! Right?!?!
Was this the only reference in the production?
I really don't think that's what they're going for. She's just a glamorous beehived 1960s barbie doll
I was thinking, " I can't be the only one thinking this right now!"
Exactly what I thought coming across the thumbnail. Her automaton actions are heightened (as well as her hair) by the Bertonesque effect. She’s dazzling!🏳️🌈🤨🏳️🌈
Her voice is out of this world! It's breathtaking.
I'm not a huge fan of the direction of this scene, but this was possibly the cleanest and most impressively I've heard this aria sung. Brava!
I desagree. It is extremely clean and bright. And the performance is outstanding: Sabine achieve with her performance (singing and acting) the true "unheimlich" of the Tale of Hoffmann ("The Sandman").

Same here!!!...And it is amazing
Same here haha
Same! Ahahahah
😂
I did exactly the same and my jaw's still dropped
I know she's a great singer and her high notes are superb, but let's talk about what she did at 3:32 - 3:41 WOW 😱 that was REALLY IMPRESSIVE!!! 👏🏆
She takes aria to highest level.
Oui, bien vu!😲🤯
Yeah, but what about 3:22?
sounds like a bird😍
Insane!
Эта версия пожалуй лучшая из всех, что я слышал! Браво!
I prefer Patricia version😂😢
Тогда вы слышали очень мало
This is my absolute favorite version of this aria. Her surgical precision and mastery of tempo and dynamic variance is unparalleled.
th-cam.com/video/3dlGDNoliH0/w-d-xo.html. Much better!
It’s all about personal preference. For me, Sabine’s version is the best one :)
one of the best versions on youtube.
her high notes sound so soft and as if she is singing this with ease
marvellous!
as Patricia Janeckova

No.. natalie dessay or sumi jo is all time best
I like Luciana Serra's version
One of the best renditions of this song. A true coloratura.
4:50 I DIED. SHE'S FANTASTIC!!!
I agree, it's awesome!
3:22 blows my mind.
Her singing makes me tear up, in general.
Cette version Mars Attacks est sensationnelle.
Can't even imagine the amount of study and effort she dedicated to music to reach this level of performance. Beautiful.
Her beautiful song Ís outof this world, and off th charts
L'art de la perfection et de l'esthétisme. Que de beauté et de pureté. Merci Sabine.

À la française…
Vivat le cabaret parisien !…
Vivat !
Un chef d'odeuvre😇
The level of technical excellence in this woman is amazing. She really is one the most "perfect" singers out there.
BRAVISSIMA!! INCREDIBLE and GORGEOUS VOICE! WOW! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

The goosebumps i have on my skin…
It’s like Mars Attack meets opera. The result: devastatingly brilliant. ❤
She's in a category all her own!
That crowd wanted to throw flowers at her so bad lol. Beautiful
I love how she plays this character! She's creepy and refined like a Stepford wife, not an animated and silly child's dolly as most performances are done. Her voice is stunning perfection, so with all that, you can't take your eyes off her. LOVE!
I suspect that it's hommage to an alien lady from Mars Attacks
I agree! stepford wife was my thought too!

Christopher Costa
Omg Fr!
I started screaming lmao
Holy darn you're right.
Every soprano I've heard sing this song so far have had something special to give to the song, but that is just amazing!!
IKR! I wish she used that staccato during the verse with the Ab6 instead of doing legato
Damn, that gave me goosebumps.
There is nothing beautiful than a French soprano singing a French opera 💙💙
If you like nasal sound, without a doubt.
robert111k Désolée, mais nous sommes bien nombreux, des initiés, à ne pas être d accord avec vous ! Sorry, but, so many , myself included, and we are not some random listeners, and , we absolutely don’t agree with you !
There are Italians soprano singing Italians Opera. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
@@robert111k it's the American singers who are nasal sounding when singing in french!
A certain greek soprano beats them all. 😉

So far, this is the best version ever 😍 ❤️ 💕 🤩👏👏👏 bravo' sabine 👏👏👏
It sounds like she was even able to incorporate the authentic french guttural R sound in coloratura, astounding!
She should be doing it. She's French 🤣🤣 . Be proud of your culture

I REALLY LOVE THIS!
Yes! And it's so cool.
Chère Sabine, vous êtes pour moi une vraie enchanteresse, vous avez définitivement converti une metalleuse et fan des années 80. Merci 💜
pas mieux
Unreal. She is a treasure.The control she has over her instrument is a master class in technique. She drives the aria, the aria isn't driving her. She interpolates the A, but it doesn't become all about it.
Best version I've ever seen of this song. Perfectly executed, amazing voice...

Es difícil describir la grandeza de esta actuación.
The best Olympia ever.... omg, it is so beautiful...
The higher tones are just too seamless and they seem to flutter in my head, if I may describe it.
Elle est époustouflante 😱
L'ovation est plus que méritée 😍🥰❤️
Magnifique ,merci
Her voice and performance literally freaks me out, she's otherworldly talented. Ì can't pass by anything that shows Sabine performing, it's riveting.
Je regarde cette performance pour Nnième fois. Je ne m'en lasse pas
Sencillamente...!! F A N T A S T I C A !!
Ms Devieilhe is my favourite now. She is absolutely amazing. A tru songbird.
Extraordinaire de précision, une voix magnifique aussi, bref: la perfection
What an astonishing vocal control in the highest register. I am reminded of Rita Streich.
Absolument vertigineux ! Purement renversant ! Profond merci, Mme Devieilhe ! Bravo !
Continuando la tradición de las célebres sopranos ligeras de sobre agudos estratosféricos: Madò, Pons, Dessay, Sabine es BRAVISSIMA!! Maravilloso timbre, color aterciopelado, felicitaciones a la nueva Reina de las óperas de Bravura!!!
Wow. I think I have just found my new favorite soprano. Smooth as silk to the tippy top. No shrieking at all. Amazing.
Fantastic! The sound, the control, the beauty of movement a welcome departure from the usual doll shenanigans! Wonderful artist!
The woman even looks a little canary, so beautiful to see her sing.
Oh the thrill of the trill ! Very accomplished technique and pitch perfect !
She makes perfection sound real and possible! Chapeau!
Лучшее исполнение что я слышала!!!

This was the cleanist performance ever. Just perfect 👌
The hairdo and her way of moving is from Mars Attacks! LOVE IT!!
No conocía esta versión , pero me ha dejado totalmente maravillada!! Que voz más espléndida y clara. Tiene unos matices espectaculares!!Increíble!!
That perfect, fluid voice. Can't get enough of it.
I would not believe it if I hadn't seen and heard it.
Astounding.
My first time to witness this superlative singing. I am out of words.
Идеально исполняет. Качество голоса - супер. Большая певица.

Mai avrei creduto che una voce umana potesse eseguire cose simili, così perfette, pure, chiare, un talento unico. Bravissima Sabine.

Les oiseaux dans la charmille
Dans les cieux l'astre du jour,
Tout parle à la jeune fille d'amour!
Ah! Voilà la chanson gentille

Emeut son coeur qui frissonne d'amour!

Everything speaks to a young girl of love!

The song of Olympia! Ah!
Everything that sings and resonates
And sighs, in turn,
Moves his heart, which shudders of love!
Ah! This is the lovely song,
The song of Olympia! Ah!
Just wonderful. Nothing else to say.
