Thank you Klaus for providing and maintaining our Cecilia-Forum and for your wishes with the impressiv picture of the Himalaya. I wish you and all fans a good year 2016, health, (more) peace and marvellous encounters with Cecilia's art of singing and personality.
Hello everybody! Also from me, a very happy new year, with much happiness,love and beautiful music! Klaus, what a beautiful picture, must have been very special to be there. See you at a next Cecilia concert! Best wishes to all, Catherine from Holland :-)
"There is, in the North, the divine-souled Lord of mountains named Himālaya. Diving into the Eastern and Western oceans, he stands like the measuring rod of the earth."
With that very first verse from Kālidāsa's celebrated Sanskrit poem entitled Kumāra-sambhava, I wish a lofty New Year to everyone, to you Klaus and to Cecilia who is like the Himālaya Queen of divine singing, with thoughts for our dear friend Ton, thanks to whom I could attend the Barbican concert on 18th December.
Dear everyone, you NEED to watch the movie "Das brandneue Testament". It is beautiful, very clever, funny - and: it has lots of Cecilia in it! The movie uses Scarlatti's "Mentre io godo" twice from "Opera Proibita" and Händel's "Lascia chio pianga" from "Rinaldo". I was so excited to hear Cecilia sing, it fits the movie so perfectly... You can also hear Purcell's "O Solitude" with Andreas Scholl, and Bach and some Rameau. My warmest recommendations! Alexander https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOPwMIpt8eI
Thank you, also - I wish you all wonderful concerts in 2016!!
