What a master! Sublime interpretation! Also, the setting and costumes correct for the original setting of Orlando.

Applause and encore ... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

One of my very favourite arias sung by one of my very favourite mezzos. So uplifting during this awful lockdown. Crying with joy......thank you dear Sarah.

This is a very deep and beautiful performance. I’m looking forward to seeing other artists in the role, with no competitive or cheap spirit. I’m sure I’ll love other performances, too, and I’ll treasure this one with the rest.

Those of us privileged enough to witness this transcendent performance live will never forget its emotional impact. Thanks so much for uploading, and allowing us to savour Sarah Connolly's consummate artistry, integrity and committed performance again. I cannot imagine anybody surpassing this interpretation of the aria.

@@themaurice7082 what you can say about her emotional manner's of singing, about how she interpretated suffers through all centuries of human being's and passions, which same peoples so full, same so poor, how high spirit suffer or glad to be inside our bodies, our words, how he suffer without us? What you think about next think: he think about death inside our feelings and change our life to a direction to the better being or we shall know about his unhonest action against human, whom nature always want to be a better and honest as one day wrote in the letters to the friends Plinius Secundus? Her singing as show of thinks of the prince of Denmark Hamlet or scream after first murderess of Joan of Arc. But i believe that kings and princesses don't have so many suffers.Thanks for your future answer.

OMG, the feeling, the performance, the unison between the feeling of the singing and the music! This opened in 1735?!?!?! OMG I was born in 1984 and because of technology of my time, and the learning and discipline throughout the ages by scholars, musicians, singers, etc etc this music was passed on to me - a simple son of middle class laborers... I cannot be grateful enough, no matter how long I live!

Luv Ariodante ! And this aria steals all ! Wonderful to hear Bartoli,Connolly ,Donato,,Janet Baker and so many others in this . I can't believe theyre was a time when I used to read about music and think I'd die before I ever saw a recording by contemporary composers or little heard Handel operas !

Fantastic! And not just the voice, but the acting. The trembling of the hands, the facial expressions, the vocal soaring from those prone positions - and the voice just soars!

Absolutely peerless. She is magnificent

i bow down before the goddess. freakin' sublime- and heartbreaking.

Oh, how I missed HER in this year's run of Ariodante at the Vienna State Opera .. she is just spectacular in this role! Please come back!!!

Sarah Connolly, perfection.

Thank you Sarah Connolly for this fantastic arie , Brava Dacapo , Dacapo , Dacapo .....

Watching again Sarah's sublime performance. I'm overwhelmed by how she always totally inhabits a role. We are so blessed to have her singing for us. Thank you Sarah for allowing us see you in one of my favourite arias of beloved Handel.

There is something about her voice that touches my soul. Some voices do that. This is one. Some make me put my fingers in my ears. I have a particular sound I like - pure, clear no screech and not much vibrato. And- All the training and technique can't give one a lovely sounding voice if it's not there already. I can't bear some voices that others love - like Anna Netrebko I hate it!

Stunningly beautiful.Such feeling, such passion, such sorrow. Thank you for upload.

The perfect example of a suicidal aria in da capo form. A heartbreakingly beautiful 12 minutes or so; what a singer, what an actress. Thank you so much for uploading it.

I'm not crying someone just stuck a treebranch in my eye.

I wish I had been party to this Live performance... but even as recorded here it is unforgettable. Such beauty of tone, emphases & technical variations in accord w the dramatic requirements of the music. Dame Sarah's voice is of the purest velvet.

I just love her voice❤️

Really appreciated the translation subtitles. Very moving performance. Acting superb. Liked the movement levels : she is very fit with fantastic support for the voice.

Le migliori prestazioni. Bravo.

No words

It's amazing 🥺😍✨

This is indeed a splendid performance, still I would recommend everyone loving this music to seek out Janet Bakers interpretation. The entire opera conducted by Raymond Leppard is available on youtube and is probably the supreme recording of this aria, or for that matter, any opera of Handel as far as I am concerned.

Браво!!!

I’m trying to find a world class, legendary British Opera Singer. (Don’t ask why 😂) so Forgive my naivety but could someone who knows a lot about opera tell me how Sarah would be regarded internationally. And is there anybody else you’d recommend ahead of her? Thanks

Bravissima

Just proves Handel was a great Opera Composer and stirred the emotions and the soul! I would say better than Mozart!

Ann Murray will always be Ariodante for me, but this is sublime. Even if the conductor made some questionable choices of tempo.

I wonder why some opera freaks cannot resist to overrate their favourite singers or versions (which are not necessarily the best except in their eyes) by bashing others. This is but amateur? Sorry to say but the amateur is beyond a doubt you.

The 'A' section is painfully slow. Loses almost all sense of forward momentum. Bravo to her for managing to sustain as much line as she did. But even an artist of her calibre couldn't be expected to carry all those achingly long yearning lines without the extra breaths she was forced to take
