A wonderful Orlofsky, with just the touch of oddness that goes with the role. Visually very convincing as well. I got the whole performance on DVD and I simply love it!
In my opinion this is the best performance of this aria. Even if some people prefer Ernman (I don't so) Mrs. Fassbänder is accompanied by (in my opinion) the best Strauss conductor who ever lived. Thanks for posting All the best
There used to be a youtube item that showed plenty of that, from this exact same performance - I am trying to find it now; that is how I happen to be wandering by right here.
her voice just has very good larngeal quality, meaning her low registers she can sing excellently in chest voice. There is no pushing or squeezing involved
eelco67 you can even hear it pinging right off the back wall of the Bayerische Staatsoper in this! A phenomenal sound. It’s incredible to think she sang Olga to Wunderlich’s Lensky... one of the greatest living singers of our times.
Wonderful. The best I've ever seen. She looks like a man, too. I've seen others with tons of lipstick and eye makeup whose faces looked totally female and I wondered why on earth they did that.
fassbaender is one of the greatest singers ever. and she also is a great director of our opera

Herrlicher Auftritt - mit grandioser Stimme und perfekter Mimik. Alles stimmt !
Der beste Orlofsky aller Zeiten!
right on, man, right on. She always looks like she's having a lot of fun with these roles.

I agree for Miss Fassbander and Carlos Kleiber❤️. Great artists.
Hinreißend-einmalig.
ネットにある色んなオルロフスキーの歌みたけどこの人の歌声が一番好き🥹❤️
セットも衣装もめちゃくちゃ凝ってて見応えあるし、こんなオペラを生で見れたらなぁ……
Stupefacente, unica, in poche parole ORLOFSKY!!!!!!
She is the best!
She is great! Thanks for sharing!
she is orlofsky ....wonderfull
Greatest Orlofsky ever.
Gestern in Bad Ischl gesehen. Großartig!
love the acting
BRAVO!!!
YEESSSS!!
kakaduty b
Sie teilt mein Lebensmotto...
She sings this really well! I have an LP recording of her as Bizet's Carmen and it wonderful.
She can play drunk very well!! (By the way!!)
The Marquis is amazing!!!!
I'm only sorry we cannot see the beloved Carlos Kleiber conducting in the pit!!! What a man!!

She is absolutely fabulous in everything. My favorite Fassbaender performance is in Kurt Weill's Seven Deadly Sins. Absolute perfection.
Thanks for hint. Found at YT and I'am excited.

Brigiite Fassbaender :The best Orlofsky !!!
Chacun à son goût!!!
Für mich ist B.F. der beste Orlofsky !
Leider hat sie sich etwas zu früh von der Bühne verabschiedet........
She's very funny. This is as good as the English PG Woodside send ups of the aristocracy. Plus super voice.
Grande chanteuse trop peu connue.Merci Madame(ou mesdames)?
Tiny voice? Clearly you have never heard this lady singing in a theatre. It is one of the biggest mezzo voices ever.
eelco67 you can even hear it pinging right off the back wall of the Bayerische Staatsoper in this! A phenomenal sound. It’s incredible to think she sang Olga to Wunderlich’s Lensky... one of the greatest living singers of our times.
Lovely! She makes me tolerate Otto Schenk productions!
I can't imagine anyone who can be better Orlofsky than Fassbaender...though I've never hear the one you say.
brava e simpatica
yes! she is :D under Ernman--> Excellent!
@ bodiloto Ah Bodiloto,tu me plais!
Wonderful. The best I've ever seen. She looks like a man, too. I've seen others with tons of lipstick and eye makeup whose faces looked totally female and I wondered why on earth they did that.
@bodiloto J'avais compris!Et à ce propos,connais-tu Virginia Zeani?Rare!!
@Selkaen Indeed.
@jacquesurlus thank you :)
The two guys have to be Falke and Eisenstein, but I can't tell which is which.
The blond guy with the mustache is Falke (Wolfgang Brendel) and the dark haired with the monocle is Eisenstein (Eberhard Wächter).
who is the man sitting on the sofa?
Gabriel von Eisenstein (amazingly performed by Eberhard Wächter)
Wir haben sie selber nur bis 2010 oder so. LEIDER!
@ manwithemeraldeyes Attends, je suis occupé en ce moment mais j'ai quelque chose pour vous .
Schließe mich Deiner Meinung an: die Beste - auch hier auf den Seiten!
@strauss12345
It could have been a character choice.
@ bodiloto Je parlais de ton goût , qu'importe ton nez si tes oreilles ne sont pas complètement bouchées!
I still can't believe there's such an insult in Opera. :D
Unerreicht !
exactly! tiny voice and some barking. nothing more than that. lol
I am not enchanted by her Orlofsky, but she most certainly did not have a tiny voice: th-cam.com/video/8pQBjhsRaQ8/w-d-xo.html
