Summary
[edit]| Description | It is an excerpt of Act 1 Scene 2 ("Ombre chère") from the audio recording Hamlet, an opera by Ambroise Thomas, performed by Thomas Hampson and the London Philharmonic Orchestra and conducted by Antonio de Almeida, released in 1993 as EMI Classics 7 54820 2 (3 CDs) with the copyright owned by EMI France (1993). | 
|---|---|
| Source | It is from the recording published by EMI Classics as catalog no. 7 54820 2 (3 CDs) and is an excerpt of track 13 of CD1. | 
| Article | |
| Portion used | It is a small portion (26 seconds) of the entire track 13 (605 seconds). | 
| Low resolution? | It is a low quality (85 kbps) audio sample of the original (1,411 kbps). | 
| Purpose of use | It contributes significantly to the article Hamlet (opera) for which it is used. The article quotes a reviewer of the recording who describes the artist's special ability to interpret the music. The reviewer Barrymore Laurence Scherer wrote: "Thomas captures Hamlet's shadowy malaise in both vocal line and somber accompaniment.... The intimacy of the recording provides Thomas Hampson with ample opportunity to make the most of the relationship between words and music...." (Scherer, Barrymore Laurence (March 1994). "Recordings. Thomas: Hamlet". Opera News, 58 (12). ISSN 0030-3607. Retrieved 12 March 2010. Subscription required.) The audio passage provides an example of what the reviewer has described, which the words alone cannot adequately convey. | 
| Replaceable? | In the article Hamlet (opera) it is used for commentary concerning this particular passage and this particular performance of the passage for which there is no free equivalent. |
