"obese valkyrie", too much strongs words against a beautyful legend!

technically she is a beautiful singer. but i don't feel anything when i listen to her sing this aria the way i do when i hear jessye norman or janet baker sing it.

Hi, nice to meet you here, I told you, this version ist the best! And the version of Ann Sophie von Otter.

Absolutely right. I'm definitely on the "tone the fucking vibrato down" train. I wish this were a cleaner recording though... anybody have one?
DEREITLESNOPPE (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
You´re absolutely right, I especially like the version of Kirkby

I think this piece benefits from a much lighter touch than later opera. Frankly, it's a breath of fresh air to understand the words, hear only minimal vibrato, and feel like Dido herself is not an obese valkyrie.

Gorgeous, but it was a bit of a shocker the way that final chord was cut short!
