@Deerse Год назад

You both make baroque music accessible for a big(ger) audience. There is between the both of you a great chemistry. Fine how everything comes together in these clips: the timeless value and depth of Henry Purcell's compositions, the singer who's soul and voice were meant to shine and reflect these timeless pearls and the playing on the theorbe which is authentic genuine, refined and deeply felt.

@liesalllies Год назад

Well said!

@OceanSwimmer Год назад

@Inner World Music Guitar, You've described exactly the quality that brings me back to these recordings, and wanting to hear much more!! Thrilling!

@hellomate639 Год назад

They connect with the myth in Baroque music with these performances and the sense of myth in Purcell's music. This format with the theorbo and singing makes it so personal too, however. It makes me think of how epic poetry would be recited with an instrument and a poet or singer. This is like that. But the music is also beautiful. It's like a moment of Paradise.

@fabiennearlet1608 4 месяца назад

My sentiments exactly. Their music always uplifts, no matter the topic❤. Check out "Dream Faces" and "Music for awhile" . Mesmerizing!

@PerpetuallyTiredMusician Год назад

He opens his mouth and the soul comes out to wrap itself around words and I get to listen in awe. My man cheats, he goes directly for the spine bypassing the whole cerebral thing that is supposed to be part of the listening transaction and it's great. Oh and Brandon you did well too lol. Thank you for brightening up the perpetually dark winter Sunday here in Sweden. Peace, stay safe and take care everyone

@dannyhefer6791 Год назад

Not to downplay anything pop-music, there is no accounting for taste. But Reginald's voice is something so absolutely unique, not just in its texture but also in his absolute control. This video should tens of millions of views. I haven't heard something that mindblowing for years. If anyone has recommendations for other such works, I'm all eyes and ears!

@theheresiarch3740 Год назад

I know very little about music in general and even less about singing, but Reggie Mobley has to be the best vocalist I've ever heard. I can't imagine how many hours (or years) of practice went into his ability to maintain a tone as precisely as a machine one moment and then create a ton of depth and/or perfectly executed vocal ornaments the next.

@joshbooth9772 Год назад

@mylovelettertimemachine 7 месяцев назад

Those crunchy base notes on the theorbo contrasting with Reginald's silky glissandos is exquisite. I first became aware ofs this song via Michael Nyman's Draughtsman's Contract, and it's such a pleasure have a version of the original that's faithful and yet contemporary at the same time. I can't stop playing it. Beautiful. Thank you.

@mitchtaylor177 Год назад

Brandon wie gehts? Its been a while since I posted so I thought it was time. Any video with the theorbo is always fun for me; I also love historical stringed instruments. As always your playing is spot and the ability to split super lows with bright highs is always a pleasing dichotomy. I have a request for you though as a lover of old tyme stringed things too. Do you think you could do a video on the ancient Egyptian 'long neck lutes'? Not the shorter neck 'oud' like varieties but the long neck versions found in ancient temples. Maybe something you're interested in maybe not but I would love to see one being played today and an excuse to buy something else for your collection! Merry early Christmas dude!

@evilestmark Год назад

I just want to say... these are some of the first times I've ever actually been able to make out the lyrics of operatic songs. Something about typical soprano vocals that just turns it all into pure melody and I lose the meaning outside of a few focus words. I think that's my fault not the singers. But this stuff you guys are doing, it's intensely good. Thank you both.
