Thank you, Nick Higgs. I am a musical illiterate (read but cannot write; hear but cannot play or sing). I have listened and watched many times this rendering of 'Rejoice, O Daughters of Zion' and only came upon your commentary just now. I clicked on it expecting to be irritated by anyone 'interrupting' this brilliant singing (and playing). Instead you have, without an iota of patronage, amplified my understanding of and joy in listening to Jeanine de Bique's singing. Again thank you. .

Awesome, wonderful analysis of this performance. i had the pleasure of seeing de Bique perform Messiah live a number of years ago and vividly recall my immediate stunned reaction to her unique ornamentation on the final "shout". I'd never before heard that particular phrasing/embellishment and it was wondrous, and rightly or wrongly, I know refer to it as the "de Bique version". Gotta give it up to the strings section as well for keeping pace with the faster tempo, which makes an already frenetic piece even more arching towards handel's rapturous ecstasy. There's a video of de Bique in rehearsal that's sublime as well. Enjoying your analyses and in-depth breakdowns --

@virginiawaters955 9 месяцев назад

I love de Bique! The first time I heard her, it was this aria. She was standing in a church singing for fun. She was truthfully rejoicing in the acoustics.

@mestewart82 Год назад

Really loved this breakdown. I'm usually not pleased if they're not going at least Kathleen Battle fast, otherwise it's not exciting. This has us on the edge of our seat the entire time. And I love that you touched on so many of the important facts special to the Baroque period like the straight tone, da capo structure and abundance of trills throughout the work.

@nickhiggsthesinger Год назад

So happy you enjoyed it!

@nickhiggsthesinger Год назад

Are you a big Baroque fan? There are sooo many intricacies in baroque music - they are often missed!

@mestewart82 Год назад

@@nickhiggsthesinger Absolutely! I love that to me, the Baroque music is able to provide much more intimacy and really bring you in to the singer. Like the Cleopatra arias from Giulio Cesare... And because you really only have string/harpsichord for much of it, you have to listen more intensely.

What are they like?

@oxoelfoxo Год назад

@@nickhiggsthesinger mostly complimentary. there was one who said she wishes her orchestra had played at that tempo because she as the soloist would have found it easier to sing that way :D

@bahrss Год назад

On the topic of coloraturas: Italian Baritone Emiliano Geant sings Handel's arias at a blazing fast speed. His interpretations of "Or la tromba" or "Nel mondo e nel abisso" are very interesting: he has a particular way of singing coloraturas - very distinctive, but with a little "ha-ha-ha" sound. Would LOVE to hear your professional take on that technique!!!

Oh very cool! Can you send me the link?

she's not adding rhythmic variations or whatever you said, she's just singing very precisely with a few rubato parts that were completely in style

@dardenpyron8905 Год назад

Thanks, Nick. But a question: what about maybe doing a comparison of the best singing with less than best. Like here for example; fast tempo that's rush and less adequate. Thanks.

@AllenFigueredo5 Год назад

I enjoyed this video, amazing as the others, Can you make a video reacting to Russell Oberlin singing "Vivi Tirano" from Händel's Rodelina. I'd love to hear your opinion and see your reaction!

@didi_mega_dudu 6 месяцев назад

you're talking about her singing as if she's improvising. she's just singing precisely what's written in the style of the composer and the era

I don't like this performance, she gets lost in that speed, especially in the coloratura, and adds some tones that are not at all in the baroque style.

@jet4926 Месяц назад

I don't like this tempo, not at all...

@alaskafan21 7 месяцев назад

I disagree. Too much was lost. The individual note articulation was lacking For me it bordered on a controlled yodel. Not a bad thing unless it's Handle. My qualifications a voice instructor, coach, teacher, a professional vocalist. Listen to how Emily Yocum Black handels ( sorry ) the melismas which are clean and articulated. Granted there are some intonation discrepancied in my opinion but the clean articulation of the melismas negat that issue.

@nickhiggsthesinger 7 месяцев назад

Don’t you mean Händel?

I don't have the Umlaut that I know of and It should be capitalized. So yes, feel better ?
