"Live" from the Forbidden City
ElenaHouse posted a topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Hi Everyone! In this video I sing "Signore Ascolta" from the opera "Turandot" by Puccini. My dad had a great time making it look like I was walking up the steps to the Forbidden City. -
Water Nymph singing in Czech
ElenaHouse replied to ElenaHouse's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Thank you Igor! I'm blushing. Just wondering, can you understand Czech and if so was my pronunciation any good? -
In this video I sing "Song to the Moon" from "Rusalka". In the story the song is sung by a water nymph so we went out to a nearby lake to film the footage. We also caught great footage of a full moon with clouds passing it from our back yard. Then edited them all together. Story: Three wood-sprites tease the Water-Goblin, ruler of the lake. Rusalka, the Water-Goblin's daughter, tells her father she has fallen in love with a human Prince who comes to hunt around the lake, and she wants to become human to embrace him. He tells her it is a bad idea, but nonetheless steers her to a witch, Ježibaba, for assistance. Rusalka sings her Song to the Moon, asking it to tell the Prince of her love.

"Live" from Paris

Thank you everyone for the kind words! David. What do you mean by "sing a bit more forward"? Thanks for the help. ~Elena~ -
Here is my first new song for 2013. It is Ave Maria Mascagni and was filmed using the Saint - Gervais cathedral in Paris, France during my visit there with my vocal teacher, Mr. Didier. It was the perfect setting for this song.

Dramatic Opera Aria

Thank you for your kind words. Ah yes, Montserrat Caballe's performance was very similar to Angela Gheorghiu's. Here is Caballe singing Poveri Fiori. -
I love the emotion Angela Gheorghiu gave to her performance of this Song. I tried my best to copy that performance. I hope you like it.

Ave Maria - Caccini by Elena House
ElenaHouse replied to ElenaHouse's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Thanks Jugulator and Ronws! I looooove Sarah Brightman! Not only her voice but her fancy elegant cloths in her live performances. If you haven't seen Mirusia Louwerse sing I think you might like her. Here are two examples. -

I just got back from giving my concert in Switzerland. I'll be making a video of it as soon as the producer mixes the music. It was such a great experience! All the musicians were great to work with. I am getting around to starting my new Youtube channel since to old one was hacked. Here is my latest video from the soundtrack "Misty Mountains Cold" from the movie "The Hobbit".

I just had to practice that "say no" process during a skype rehearsal with my concert producer in Switzerland. The producer wanted to add more singing but I had to tell him that what we already set out is my limit for my age. If you hadn't heard about the concert I put the info in this Vlog. It's pretty exciting. They found me through my Youtube channel and are flying my whole family to Switzerland for me to be the main singer in their Christmas (Winter Solstice) concert. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_fHPNe0Wyw

Hi guys, I just uploaded my rendition of the Hobbit movie theme song "Misty Mountains Cold". Filmed on location at "Rock City" Tennessee. That place made the perfect Dwarven mines. Also ... don't worry... there were no Dragons harmed during the making of this film. LOL UPDATED LINK http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0VkoVlM4b4

Hi everybody. I hope you like my "Signore Ascolta" from the opera "Turandot" by Puccini. The story, set in China, involves prince Calà f who falls in love with the cold princess Turandot. To obtain permission to marry her, a suitor has to solve three riddles; any false answer results in death. In September 1998 the opera was performed for eight nights at the Forbidden City (北京紫ç¦åŸŽ), complete with opulent sets and soldiers from the People's Liberation Army as extras. I did my best to copy that performance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7B3Sft5wFI

Hi guys. I hope you enjoy my cover of "May it Be" from "The Lord of the Rings". The best part was I got to be an Elf again! Even my friend Sonya Thompson from the "Walking Dead" joined me as the other Elf. I used a different reverb on this one to give it that mystical feeling. Thanks for watching. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzFRwGveSU8
