These video snapshots of Kathleen singing incredibly beautiful pieces of music in her incredibly beautiful voice and manner, in an incredibly beautiful outside setting, is absolutely...incredibly beautiful! (And how do the studio technicians get the wind -- and Kathleen, her shawl -- to behave perfectly? Amazing! How did I never know about this series of videos before June 2021? Thank goodness for this aspect of the internet. It resurrects, or at least broadly exposes, masterpieces that the world should see.)
Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment, chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. J'ai tout quitté pour l'ingrate Sylvie, Elle me quitte et prend un autre amant. Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment, chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. "Tant que cette eau coulera doucement vers ce ruisseau qui borde la prairie, je t'aimerai", me répétait Sylvie, l'eau coule encor, elle a changé pourtant. Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment, chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie.
AH! The perfect voice sings this lovely French song by Martini. I followed Kathleen Battle's musical trail ever since my conservatory days many years ago.. She only gets better with age. Her Magic Flute performance the best I have ever heard.
TRANSLATION: The joys of love,e'we swiftly do de part,Its sorrows bitter through a life time prove. I gave up all for cruel Sylvia's love,too soon I find another owns her heart.The joys of love e'er swiftly do de part,Its sorrows bitter through a lifetime prove. "Long as this brook let shall softly on ward flow,the meadow passing on its joyous way,Thew I will love" ever would Sylvia say.Still flows the stream,but changed Sylvia now.The joys of love e'er swiftly do they part,it's sorrows bitter through a life time prove.
That bridge section in a minor key (comparing love to a flowing river) before settling back into the last verse makes it even more clear that this is what inspired the Elvis Presley song from 1961.
I had forgotten how angelic she could sound. But turn off that damn wind machine and putting her inside a French palace next to the harpist. This isn't Macbeth!

...This video is an example if when more is not better.....The song and her singing are not supported, but overshadowed by the by the setting, stupid wind machine and over use of camera tracking....Anway, still a beautiful song and singer.
it's strange to listen to this version after hearing Nana Mouskouri, Kathleen Battle is perhaps more "professional" but Mouskouri has such an angelic feebleness in her voice
Nancy Allen on harp is the perfect compliment to Kathleen Battles exquisite art.
I can't find words. I am simply mesmerized by the beauty of her voice
What about Mary Hopkin and her voice on the same song !
Looks like an angel, sings like an angel. How lovely is her voice and the intelligence and sensitivity she brings to this piece. Brava, Kathleen!

If you love this voice you must hear her wonderful inspiring performance in Mozart's whimsical Magic Flute!
beautiful....!!!
Always incredible.
Brava, my blackpearl!!! Her voice is really beautiful.
What an exquisite instrument she has! I don’t think I’ve heard any other soprano who compares with Kathleen Battle.
Just beautiful what more can I say
Oh, to hear more of Kathleen Battle!
Aww this is what Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis is based on
Kennedy Cox yeah we also read that from google 😁
Perfetta direi!Bel video che si sposa benissimo con il suo canto angelico,musicalitа́ е fraseggio.

"Wise men say, only fools rush in, but I can't help falling in love with you."
Your eyes kissed mine, I saw the love in them shine
You brought me heaven right there when your eyes kissed mine

Excellent!
Beautiful 😞😞

I love your comment and in fact wonder if Kathleen would hope for the same thing. That effect can be somewhat annoying to the Singer!
wind too much, too artificial, yet Harp helped to smooth through... she is beautiful enough not to be extra boosted.
Indeed! Ruins perfection in simplicity.
Excellent resource to try to match.
So mooi!
Sooooooo moving!!
最爱的女神👸😍💕完美~

Восхитительно!
It’s nice that she’s found work after her dust up with the Met.
Please tell me this has been made into a GIF?! If not please somebody do it because this is true DIVA

Elvis Presley - Can't Help Falling In Love - was inspired by this song.

Elvis, eat your heart out!

John Cox Learn French you lazy fool

A Paola Tizi ❤ Rossano Corradetti ❤
They must have resurrected a wind machine from an attic at MGM used in the 40's. It's embarrasing, although her voice is pretty.
Silly, non sensical video clip spoiling this beautiful rendition
😇🥰😘😘😘😘😘👌👌👌👌👌👌
Batman the Movie brought me here.

Is it acceptable to sing in French without guttural 'r' ?
+goletra Of course it is!
Way overproduced! Is she supposed to look like a ghost on the moor? Of course, her voice is wonderful ...
She has a poor reputation as a human being, but oh, how she could sing!
Wow the Elvis versions way better
Who? I don't know her
@@lionsmaine1238 He means Amira Willighagen.
