Philippe Jaroussky - the tone of an angel, the virtuosity of the Devil

Add to My Yahoo!

Enjoy Philippe Jaroussky who won the French Lyric Artiste Award for 2007. Phillipe Jaroussky began as a violinist, then started singing. He is a soprano countertenor. Here he sings a beautiful Vivaldi aria. For more on Vivaldi, see CLUB VIVO PER LEI. He sings well with the strings. I love the plucking strings of Vivaldi, don't you?

'This young singer with the tone of an angel and the virtuosity of the Devil has come into the limelight in only a few years as the great new French vocal talent' - La Terrasse

Absolutely incredible, PHILIPPE JAROUSSKY, Vivaldi aria

Paul Potts sings Nessun Dorma and the Crowd goes wild

Add to My Yahoo!

It's sweeping the Internet -- and what a tribute to the human spirit. Paul Potts, a cell phone salesman from South Wales, bring the audience to their feet in less than a minute, singing "Nessun Dorma," the signature Puccini aria of no less than Luciano Pavarotti.

This crowd (how many do you think have heard opera before? they call this aria "a difficult song") cannot be fooled. A beautiful voice and spirit, and the soul of Puccini ...

Enjoy!
