Klaus Nomi's Delilah

Feeling the Klaus Nomi vibes this moody summer evening in Germany.



Counter-tenor Klaus Nomi sings the famous aria "Mon coeur s'ouvre à ta voix" from Camille Saint-Saëns' opera Samson & Dalila. Written for mezzo-soprano, the aria is sung by Dalila as she attempts to seduce Samson into revealing the source of his strength.
