I’ve heard many renditions from many singers but this is my first time hearing it from The Queen of Jodel herself and it’s just awesome. As usual, Angela’s classical training and highly styled vibrato make the song fresh and mesmerizing. Her control and range just shatter other versions. The traditional dress and dance are also heart warming. Angela is very proud of her ancestry and her country and is a devout Christian woman who still knows how to have fun. She is the Gold Standard. I love this woman and her voice. She is truly a gift from on high.
@Cookefan59, I'm amazed at Angela's voice and control. I was friends with a woman from Switzerland who made terrible fun of yodeling. I'm an American. I told her not to judge this art form until she listened to Angela Wiedl . She said she'd forgive me for having no taste since I'm American! WHAT?
@@notagain779 Well, hold onto your hat. I am a 63 year old Black man. As Angela pointed out in a interview several years ago, she has been admired and accepted all over the planet because yodeling is absolutely universal. This art of yodeling is found in all cultures across this planet. I first realized this when analyzing my favorite male singer, one of the greatest of all times, the late great Sam Cooke. I was reading somewhere that he had a wonderful yodel (amongst other qualities shared by great singing artists). I had always been curious about how this technique was incorporated just like gospel techniques are incorporated. I stumbled onto this incredible artist Angela Weidel, while watching and Oesch De Driten with Melanie Oesch. I also stumbled onto that little Ukraine girl, Sofia and then stumbled onto a video that was highlighting the differences between the Austrian, Swiss and German dialects while singing the classic Jodel composition “Ezerhog Johann Jodler” featuring Angela, Melanie and the great Herlinde Lindner. It just blew me away! When Angela started rolling that yodel and the crowd went wild, I just had to find out more about this phenomenal artist. I’ve had so much fun and absolute joy discovering her works from the 1990s and beyond. I felt like a teenager from the 60s discovering The Beatles! I also have a deep respect and admiration of the Germanic people. I have many German patients in my medical practice. After my new “discovery” last year, I would be so excited to see them so they could help me with translations, but unfortunately and most of all Surprisingly, they almost showed a disgust with the art!! What? That would be like me turning up my nose at Jazz music here in the states. I was shocked 😳, and so were they, that a 63 year old Black man in America could be so fascinated and enthralled with a White German female yodel singer. 😂 The world is a very prejudiced place. I think some of the disgust is because the people I was talking to were totally trying to become so called “Americanized”. Most had married in the 1960s to American GIs stationed in Germany and were children of the defeat in WWII. I can kind of understand that they might feel ashamed and want to distance themselves. Kinda. I know there are genres of music here in the states that is shunned by a great many people. But whatever the case might be, it’s a true curiosity that the people who helped bring yodeling to the world community at a different intensity and purity see it as backwards, out dated, old fashioned or just plain embarrassing. That’s tragic. I will continue to explore this incredible music. I have a TH-cam playlist with over 200 songs from different artists including that cute lil Japanese guy and some of the other popular male yodelers. BUT I have a special list featuring Angela Weidel. She’s such an outstanding and amazing artist. I have used some of the works like “La Storia Della Montagna” to meditate to. It’s so calming and reassuring, almost like a lullaby. BTW, It’s so very nice to converse with another fan. You obviously have a great ear for music. You most likely play an instrument, maybe by ear or classically trained? In any case it’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance! 🤝
@@Cookefan59 , Thank you so much for the leads you give me on the next musicians to look up on TH-cam. I didn't know yodeling is universal, but I guess, where ever mountain ranges exist in the world, it's a way to throw your voice out over to your neighbors. Maybe even still necessary where you can't get cell phone range. That Swiss friend I mentioned, often was isolated when over there since she couldn't call anyone. Internet didn't work, either. I think you're right about Germanic people wanting to distance themselves from their cultural past. Too bad, because the past is history that we can't help, but should try to understand instead of bury it. We can learn, instead. The Japanese guy. You probably mean Tokio Ischi? I love him! I'm not a trained musician, but I used to play the French Horn. Music is for the soul. I love classical, R&B, Jazz, the blues...crooners, lots of stuff! Yes, it's so nice to converse with another fan, I agree. You're obviously passionate about music. I'll get back to you after I check out the people you mention, who I'm not aware of. (YET!) Thank You!
@@Cookefan59, I've really enjoyed finding out about and listening to Herlinda Lindner, Melanie Oesch and Sofia Shkidchenko. They're all amazing to me! Thank you for mentioning them. 😊
@@notagain779 I will gladly tell you all about why that sort of thing happens. The traditional arts are associated with the traditional way of life. After WWII and especially the hippies/socialists/other left radicals of the 60s, a notable share of the population started to detest anything that is "old" about the way of the German-speaking people, across all three countries. This has itself formed into a sort of tradition that keeps progressing through the generations. In addition, you can't forget the large portion of people who grew up trying hard not to appear boring and uncool by liking old things when American media like rock, pop, grunge, hip hop etc. were trending. It wasn't cool to be traditional. In essence folk music is "bad" just because it "smells like old", not because it's bad. As long as your friend doesn't review her view of the traditional ways, she will consider even the most touching and masterfully conducted yodeling as "bad".
