| ENGLISH SUBTITLES Natalie Dessay, coloratura soprano, "The Song of the Nightingale" (Le Rossignol) by Igor Stravinsky, James Conlon conducting Paris National Opera. These are excerepts of Dessay - almost all of her solos. Also, from the same production, see the haunting "Fisherman Song" with tenor Vsevolod Grivnov. The rest of it, not seen here, is a lot of surrealism where the animators had a free hand in taking it to a realm that I find distracting. See Dessay's fascinating interview on Charlie Rose. The consumate actress of the opera stage... listen to her "Glitter and be Gay" from Candide, on YouTube. Check out PBS.ORG for the details. From earlier CD, video was premiered on December 21, 2005. It was made for PBS.
