One of the most beautiful songs on this planet.

[maury]

Jesus !!! She was crying her eyes out at the end Such a sensitive opera singer. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[RebeccaGilmoreCello]

Gorgeous voice! The viol line, a descending scale, is word painting at its finest! LOVE love LOVE!

[JenniferBrisk]

What a huge privilege to see her perform this

[advocate]

That would be Dame Janet Baker. Extraordinary timbre and pathos.

[ruthmccartney]

A wonderful version, truly heart breaking.

[WarrenHenry]

A hard one to slay. But she SLAYED IT! and to the point of tears. One of my Purcell faves

[giuseppedecarlo]

Beautiful, touching, amazing. Joyce is always the best. Her tears reveals everything. ❤️

[auburnsynge-perrin]

Not just a stunning performance of a song - but real acting throughout. Come the finish, I'd lost the Will to live, as poor Dido had. the instrumentalists are excellent to, not sloppy & laconic as some 'early 'ones are. I Hope or wish Purcell could hear this. He'd be chuffed to bits' or 'most delightedly pleased' in his own idiom.

[davidsavoury]

For this, Janet Baker has always been my favourite; but Joyce DiDonato is really wonderful! What Janet taught us about this aria, which is a very Purcell point, is restraint. Don't give too much too soon. Jessye Norman, rich and majestic though she is, falls at that fence, for me... but Joyce DiDonato... oh, Janet and Henry himself would be proud! I would like also to pay humble tribute to the wonderful musicianship of all concerned in this recording. Sublime!

[humbertogatica]

Wonderful version, so much emotion, thank you

[thomasm.schallabock]

The best version? - Music is not a competition!
No question about it, Joyce Didonato interprets the Lamento at the highest level, but besides this version there are others that are equivalent. Personal taste then decides.

For my part, I appreciate the versions of Janet Baker and Emma Kirkby more because these two singers become heart-touching instruments for the feelings of text and music. With Joyce Didonato, it seems to me just the opposite: for her, the lament is a means of presenting herself and her feelings.

In addition to a number of excellent "classical interpretations", it should also be mentioned that there are wonderful modern versions:

[DrewWasMe]

Use caution when giving anything the title of "the best", especially within the arts. "My personal favorite" is a more appropriate title. This piece by Purcell has been done by many more historically noted and accomplished vocalists that Ms. Didonato. She did it wonderfully and well acted and cannot be faulted in any way.

[roomband]

this is as eternal as it gets! Such simple words bear so much meaning - true art!

[JohannNefdt]

It is so beautiful, so blessed. Praise God. The best version I ever heard. Shalo.

[garethgriffiths]

Gorgeous, but my own favourite remains that of Janet Baker.

[drumeaterking]

I came here because of Castlevania, and I’m staying because this was a breathtaking performance.

[jotge.]

Die absolute Trauer in einer Arie gesungen zeigt die große Künstlerin Joyce Didonato. Wunderbar♥

[karinmattsson-coll]

Joyce di Danato is singing this so beloved aria with nakedness and depth together with the heart of strings
It is difficult to compare other interpretations and artists. The voices are so different.
For me in a moment of grief, lost my beloved friend recently this version is true to me
