And now in French! ❤️🎶❤️ Show number 3 tonight! Wish us luck! ❤️ (translated) ‘’The role of Proserpine is entrusted to Rebecca Nelsen, member of the Vienna Volksoper ensemble. Her suffering appears even more poignant in contrast with her costume of a fine material decorated with flowers (signed Devi Saha) which evokes an idyllic style and gives the character a certain naivety. The interpretation of the role brings together a good understanding of the text, the character, as well as the beauty of the timbre which is manifested in the expressive and textural richness of the singing. The upper register is powerful and brilliant, controlled even when it breaks through for dramatic reasons. The middle register and the descent to the lower register, where the laments rest, is endowed with a certain majesty that provides weight and rich nuance. Its short lyrical fragments are, however, constantly faded by anguish, to the dark strains of frustration and despair. The transitions between registers emphasize the natural precision and clarity of the singing. The scene of the pomegranate marks the spirits: meeting between erotic and metaphysical crisis, the various nuances of the syncopated song follow one another in imitation of the shivers of pleasure. The expressiveness of the performance captures in its fullness the raw suffering and the psychological collapse of the character who goes mad against her will.’’ #opera #wolfgangrhim #lulu #persephone #proserpina #modernopera #singersofinstagram #theater #rebeccanelsen #livemusic #greekgoddess #greekgoddesses #greekgoddessesofinstagram #pluto #hades #hellgirl @neueoperwien (at Vienna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV5ygtVss9_/?utm_medium=tumblr
