It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Cecilia

62.108.1.72

Yes, I saw and heard her sing in a concertante performance of Haendel's 'Rinaldo' in January 1999 and will possibly see her again this year in recital,, both by the way in the Concertgebouw, but the bribe must still be payed via via a friend's friend who's going to arrange tickets and we're aware that a huge amount of those 16 million of Dutchman want to see her too.

Back then, she sang together with Ewa Podles, another mezzo but with an enormous voice compared to Cecilia and there were some other singers whose names I forgot, but that sheer delicacy in her voice, the subtlety and the enthousiasm in her musicmaking, softly and inaudible singing with the others while seated and laughing to the audience waiting for her next recitativo or aria was an incredible experience and in fact that's when my total adoration started.
