Embark on a captivating journey through the enchanting voice of Swedish mezzo-soprano Malena Ernman with her album "La voix du nord," released on July 26, 2010, under Roxy Recordings. This exquisite collection blends the genres of requiem, Swedish ballads, and Christmas music, offering a unique and diverse listening experience that spans over an hour and twenty-five minutes.
Malena Ernman's powerful and versatile vocals shine throughout the album, as she masterfully interprets a mix of classical arias and contemporary compositions. From the hauntingly beautiful "Dido's Lament" to the lively "Una voce poco fa" and the tender "Caro mio ben," Ernman's performances are both technically impressive and emotionally resonant.
The album begins with the original track "One Step from Paradise," setting the stage for a journey that includes both well-known classics and lesser-known gems. Ernman's rendition of "Sempre Libera" from Verdi's La Traviata and her interpretation of the popular "O mio babbino caro" from Puccini's Gianni Schicchi are standout performances that showcase her incredible range and artistry.
"La voix du nord" also features Ernman's own compositions, such as "Min plats på jorden" and "Perdus," which add a personal touch to the album. Her acoustic version of "La Voix" offers a more intimate and stripped-down perspective on the original track.
Throughout the album, Ernman is accompanied by a full orchestra, providing a rich and lush musical backdrop that complements her stunning vocals. The combination of Ernman's powerful voice and the lush orchestration creates a truly immersive listening experience that is sure to captivate fans of classical and contemporary music alike.
