"Holy night" by Marian Anderson, the greatest voice in America.. And in the world... She can sing anything at the same level than any singer in ALL styles... If you dont believe it, listen his Brahms " alto rhapsody", his Verdi, His Schubert.... The great writer Marguerite Yourcenar says that the greatest negro spiritual ever sang is by her..."crucifixion" and his "deep river" exceed any other rendition.... She top Maria Callas or Billie Holiday on the line, who say better? She never made a continuous operatic singer carreer being black, she toured longtime with lieders, airs, and black music.....Sibelius adored her....Young she was prohibit from music school, being black, she learned almost by her own and with private teachers.... Try a Schubert lied or a Schuman one, or listen to her in Bach on par with Kathleen Ferrier....His humble,simple natural non sophisticated powerful flow cannot be stop and she surpass even Jessye Norman....She never needed to show herself and stay humble before the music..... Compare the 2 in negro spirituals.... "Holy Night " she is 65 five years old here.... Imagine her at 40..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1WYzoGNeU0 I apologize for being in love....This woman is amazing.... :) Name a voice, male or female, that can move the heart more with this Schubert "ave maria" ? Note with how much care and attention Stokowsky trailed her.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXhdUC43Jq0&list=RDErGftlt-w2o&index=2 Some geniuses are too great to be known or well known: Ramanujan, Tesla, Scriabin, Marian Anderson, etc They are almost without peers in the past and even even in the future to come..... Archimedes is on the level of Ramanujan not more than that except Gauss and Riemann... Prometheus, Archimedes, Vinci, Paired good with Tesla, Bach and Monteverdi great creators of new sounds and worlds pair well with Scriabin who create atonality without boring formulas like Shoenberg and transform the piano playing on a cosmic level.... 😊 |
