French-Canadian baritone, Philippe Sly, sings The Trumpet Shall Sound from Handel's Messiah with the Trinity Wall Street Baroque Orchestra.
I hope you enjoy this analysis + breakdown of one of Handel's most recognizable arias. I have had the honour and privilege of working on this aria with many great teachers and mentors, and along the way I have picked up a few tips and tricks.

Philippe Sly is the best choice to illustrate the brilliance of this aria. Few have ever sung it better than him. I simply adore his performance. ...and thanks Nick for this great explanation:-)

@leomirandavasco

Handel is my favorite compositor

@TJP-tq4np

Blow, Gabriel, blow! The trumpet is the classical representation of the Last Trumpet blown by the Angel Gabriel at the end of the world and calling forth the Day of Resurrection! Nice to put the trumpeter up in the raised podium!

@jofido

What a great analysis and discussion. I can’t think of a better aria to choose. Philippe Sly is my favorite baritone. He shows his talent, craft and musicality with all his work. Thank you so much for this wonderful presentation.

Philippe Sly has been a guilty pleasure of mine for many years. Such a sexy voice.

Terrific video! I've sung Handel's Messiah many times over the decades in a church choir. Your analysis has added so much to my understanding of a musical piece I so enjoy. Thank you.

Philippe Sly is the best! The trumpet player is fantastic.

@lonniethomas2649

I love Baroque trumpet! The sound is so clean! This is a wonderful performance!

Very good and accessible analysis of a superb aria, exemplary of Handel's genius, performed by one of the most sensitive and precise artists, with an irresistible timbre, never seeking gratuitous effect.

@johnivett3241 Год назад

You clearly love this aria and your passion’s infectious. Great choice - Philippe Sly’s voice is warm, light and agile, and I loved your insight into the choices he made in the A prime section. (He’s also amazing in “Why do the nations…” with some breath-taking Handelian musical gymnastics!) Thanks again! And what’s next? No pressure :-)

N. Higgs gives a simple analysis of the musicology composition and baritone singer P. Sly's vocalisation along with the music. The Trumpet is an outstanding musical instrument emphasising the Aria's significance theme. What a joy to follow Higgs' explanation. An educational documentary, thank you Nicholas.

I got so emotional while watching this review. Thanks to this, i'm going to really dissect Every aria I perform from now onwards, with a deeper understanding of what the composer tries to communicate.

@osezuastephen-imobhio7281

Nice review, my friend. God willing, I'll be doing this evergreen spiritual tune during this coming Easter celebrations in my church in Lagos, Nigeria. I really blessed God for granting me the grace to see this very educating video review on the song of revelation.

@jeremymartin1610

Great reaction. Really good tips about vowel sounds, baroque tuning, improvisation and counterpoint. Thank you.

@danielduguay6167 Год назад

Très intéressant ! J’aime bien ton analyse, cela nous permet de mieux comprendre la pièce et le style baroque que j’apprécie tant! Continue tes vidéos ils sont instructifs.👍

@user-ul2we8vn5d

jesteś niesamowity. Dziękuję Ci za te wskazówki, za te szczegóły i detale. To jest moje akurat ulubione wykonanie Mesjasza Handla. I Ty mi pomogłeś wydobyć smaczki :-) Dzięki Nick !!!!!!

@irenesupica5571

Excellent commentary!

@LoicTasquierNL

Lovely !

@markhager2216

Sly really is the current gold standard for singing this aria. No “scoops” and no “hammy singing.” I found this original a few years ago and listen to it regularly. And, really, hats off to the trumpet player. Incredible work (I listened to a performance a couple weeks ago and the baritone was fine, the trumpeter? Yikes)

Love love love your analysis- Did not see this before as I have had Phillipe's version on RU-vid for a couple of years now. I first heard him sing (in my car) maybe 4 years ago when he did Messiah with the Philadelphia Orchestra , along with Carolyn Samson and Yannick. Luckily WQXR has re-played this spectacular version the last few years. I love his warmth. I loved Yannick's version using a smaller orchestra, as it showcased the singers very well.
