Handel lived at the period called the renaissance. This period was characterised by the erasure of Negro contributions to mankind. The main characters in the Bible were changed from Black to White, Artworks painted over from Black to White, Sculptures too. Those that could not be changed were destroyed. Men wore woolly wigs to resemble the hair of the Negro royalty that had been in place for centuries..women even removed their lower ribs to reenact the figures of the Negro ladies who had formed high society before that renaissance time. Literature and all knowledge was plagiarised. So what do you think happened to music? At a time when Europeans where playing infantile music moving like bears? Which people are the most musically gifted even today? Come on Handel is the guy who put his signature on already existing Negro music. That’s why when we sing these melodies, you feel the power of the music and know in your spirit and heart that these are the people who composed the songs. It’s time for the world to admit what they’ve done to the Negro. We will forgive you because we know it was not your generation.
Really brilliant articulation! Some professional Uk choral bodies are still producing the old ha-ha-ha-ha type of runs on the tricky fast melismas, and you folks do it thus: ah-ah-ah … each syllable precise and not aspirated at the start! Great clarity and as the other commenters say, great diction%! Thank you so much and God bless you all!
How wonderful! I don't know where to start, the Harmonious Choral have a wonderful sound and diction. Also, they are smiling, obviously enjoying the moment. Furthermore, they sing from memory, which makes a huge impression. I don't want to forget the instrumentalists -- they along with the singers were beautifully in rhythm and the whole ensemble made a glorious sound. Thank you for this!
James, you are very gifted and you have an amazing team to back it all up. Harmonious chorale is one of my favorite. I always listen to you guys over and over again. You guys are indeed amazing. God bless
