Unforgettable, piercingly high F sharp note belted out by the Soprano, a sound that once heard, can never be erased from memory.
Sarah Aristidou, a virtuosic vocalist hailing from France and Cyprus, has left audiences in awe with her recent performance in the opera 'Das Jagdgewehr'. Composed by Austrian composer Thomas Larcher, this opera is based on the Japanese novel 'The Hunting Gun' by Yasushi Inoue.
The opera tells a compelling story of three women who address letters to a hunter, revealing their reactions to the revelation of his illicit love and the laying bare of his life. Sarah Aristidou plays the character of Shoko, the lover's daughter.
In 'Das Jagdgewehr', Sarah's performance is intensely impressive and passionate. Her solo, taken from the world premiere at the Bregenz Festival in 2018, has been eagerly awaited. One particular moment that has garnered attention is her use of the 'whistle register', the highest register of the human voice, to sing an augmented fourth above the highest note a soprano is expected to sing - a super-high F sharp (F♯6).
An incredible video showcases Sarah's ability to hold this super-high note, demonstrating her exceptional vocal range and control. This feat is particularly impressive given that the highest voice type in classical music, a soprano, typically ranges between middle C (C4) and high C (C6).
Interestingly, 'Das Jagdgewehr' was a competition entry at an unspecified event, further highlighting Sarah's talent on the global stage. The names of the two other women who perform alongside Sarah in the opera are not currently available.
Sarah Aristidou's performance in Das Jagdgewehr is a testament to her exceptional vocal abilities and her ability to bring depth and emotion to her roles. Her rendition of this opera is not to be missed.
