Sep 26, 2008 - Yes, I'm sure we will. I discovered all this material of Victoria De Los Angeles on Youtube only a couple of weeks ago. In all my life, I've always thought I was burning a lone torch to VDLA. Now, I can see, there are so many people who simply love her. It's a funny feeling. I absolutely love her Bailero. Have you heard it?

Dec 9, 2008 - Back in the Eighties, when I was a teenager, I heard this song on the Polish National Radio in an orchestral arrangement. I recorded it and came back to it time and time again. That bitter-sweet union of sorrow and loving ecstasy won my heart immediately and helped a lot to live through the dark times of the Communist era.

Dec 30, 2008 - C'est une des perles de ce DVD, et la tendresse de Victoria de los Angeles venant entourer, à la fin, le compositeur très ému, est admirable. Merveilleuse vidéo, très rare de délicatesse et de sensibilité. Merci

Feb 19, 2009 - Hi lochness11, thanks for the video. Let me correct the title of the song you have put in the description, so the video can be found more easily. It's "Damunt de tu només les flors". The translation from Catalan to English could be "Lying upon you there were flowers only".

lochness11 Says:

Feb 20, 2009 - Thankyou.I have corrected the info.Much better to be accurate.Wonderful piece,AND singer.Bless her memory. Robert.

GeorgeMaxwellDuPre Says:

Mar 9, 2009 - This song is, to me, practically perfect, as are the performance here and interpretation. Is Mompou also the composer of this song?

lochness11 Says:

Mar 10, 2009 - Yes,indeed he is.Perfection.

May 3, 2009 - Rarest and priceless document. Thank you so much!!

emiliocdarder Says:

Jul 1, 2009 - Sorry, that translation is not correct. The correct translation woud be: On you only the flowers. Nothing about 'Lying'

gundisalvus2 Says:

Jul 2, 2009 - Hi Emilio, I guess there isn't a unique translation, particularly talking about poetry. You could also say: "Above You, Nothing But Flowers". Google for example '"combat del somni" lubliner' and you'll find a complete translation.

Aug 7, 2009 - So great in the spanich repertory...and here, with the compositoir himself! a great moment of music : thank you Victoria!!!

studdingsails Says:

Aug 14, 2009 - Lochness11 you've scored the jackpot here! It's also very good filming too. My all time favorite composer for the piano is Mompou. A recording of Victoria in Faure's Requiem introduced me to her pure voice way back in the early 70's and to date that recording is the best I've heard-since then she can't fail. So for me this must be one of the biggest delights on youtube-MANY THANKS!

paulprocopolis Says:

Oct 2, 2009 - What delicious intimacy!

Mezzotenor Says:

Oct 18, 2009 - I must concur - what a treasure! This is Mompou's most beautiful song, perhaps his best composition altogether. Hearing him accompany Ms. de los Angeles is just one of those precious moments when eveything came together perfectly in front of a camera. MANY THANKS for posting this lovely film clip!
