Und in der Dunkelheit des Schlusses verweile ich im Schweigen, berührt von diesem Gesamtkunstwerk. Der Abend ist schön geworden dadurch.

@NoNicotto 12 дней назад

Your video is the only one that accurately expresses the heartbreaking emotions of the song's lyrics, “I'm cold,” “I don't want to wake up,” and “I want to die”. Most excellent.

I do believe this is what is what Henry Purcell would have heard in his day. It's an 'acting' voice, a mix of raw chest voice with falsetto, switching between the two when required. Also a great characterful face!

@mamascarlatti 4 месяца назад

Yes it's very interesting and affecting, I have heard Andras Scholl sing this in pure countertenor which is very beautiful, but this approach is very striking and emotional.

@Kiltedbear 4 месяца назад

Except for the original sheet music as written is sung an octave lower. It was Klaus Nomi that popularised the counter tenor interpretation of this piece, but it's supposed to be sung by a bass.

Le meilleur fausset/falsettiste ("contre" diront nos contemporains - contra tenor altus) : le passage (le saint Graal) est une merveille, il ne détimbre pas entre tête et poitrine !! Sa discographie (Virgin Classique) est extra et est à l'origine de mes plus belles émotions musicales

@ferminsalaberri 5 месяцев назад

Sa voix de poitrine n’est vraiment pas bien produite. On n’ecoute apeine le premieres notes en voix de tete. Je pense qu’on n’a pas de bons chanteurs aujourd’hui mais vous trouverez très jolies executions de cette air avec les voix des chanteurs du passé.

@@ferminsalaberrithe reason you think there are no good singers today is because you keep increasing and imposing your own demands on what constitutes a good singer, replacing the human and unique aspect of them and turning them into little more than an object to be used in your own mind. There are plentiful good and great singers all over the world, regardless and irrespective of your idealisms.

As a backwoods hillbilly, secretly a voracious consumer of art, beauty and music, and when it can be found, a delicious stew of all 3, I was warmed by this. It's 9 degrees in my house and there is ice on my windows inside. I'm quite comfortable under my quilts as I seek the glowing embers that kindle inner warmth such as this. Would enjoy him singing Arvo Parts heart in the Highlands.

Really didn't know what to expect when the singer sang from the sitting position, but the position, with the lyrics in mind, "what power, who from below has made me rise" fits perfectly and reinforces the singers plea. Beautiful rendition!! The harpsicord and strings were perfect by the way.

Par je ne sais quel hasard de la vie, j'ai moins suivi le chanteur et voici que trente ans après je retrouve ici cet air, si approprié, cette voix. Merci.
