It is a great privilege to be able to hear and see this Handel and Dryden masterpiece performed in a way that makes me feel that life is worth living.
-
The more I listen to Handel, the more i love his music
-
Je l'écoute très souvent, il me transporte dans un monde ailleurs L'exécution est sublime Aucune imperfection ! Encore merci
-
What beautiful performance. I and this in there University of Washington choir in the late 1960s - but the acoustics are brilliant, Thank you for sharing.
-
I give thanks for appreciating this greatness. For being able to appreciate this human work of art
-
Die Aufnahme ist klangvoll, höchste musikalischer Hochgenus!
-
I do love haendel so much
-
Que extraordinaria composición, que exquisita dirección, que extraordinaria ejecución, lágrimas de emoción al finalizar, cuanto hay que agradecer al catolicismo en estas artes (por cierto soy ateo). Añadir que Haendel era alemán no inglés y sus composiciones reflejan su espíritu germano por todos los poros. Maravilloso Heinz Ferlesch. Encuadrado en el espíritu sin batuta del genial ya desaparecido Nikolaus Harnoncourt Lo actual es pura basura.
-
Sehr eindrücklich, mit viel Seele und Herzblut, wir proben es auch gerade im Choeur Symphonique im Biel/Bienne Switzerland mit Iwan Wassiljewitsch
-
In heaven the angels play Handel's beautiful music.
-
Interprétation splendide & dynamique : un vrai moment de bonheur !
-
An exhilirating performance of another Handel masterpiece but not performed that often. This performance captures all the vitality of baroque at its brilliant best, conducted with incredible panache. The small orchestra produces an extraordinarily rich sound but true to HIP at its best; the chorus is amazing and all the soloists are superb, especially Cornelia Horak. A treasure!
-
What an absolute privilege it is to listen to this performance. What an age we live in, with all its travails, to have this beauty, too.
-
Wunderschön! Anmutig und zart in (trotz) der barocken Fülle Händels. Werde ich wieder ansehen/anhören.
-
Ich kenne diese Komposition seit Jahren. Seine Version hat mich absolut beeindruckt. Herzlichen Glückwunsch und vielen Dank für Ihre wundervolle Ausführung. Bitte teilen Sie weiterhin Ihre großartige Arbeit. Wir hoffen, Sie eines Tages persönlich in Mexiko-Stadt zu sehen / zu hören
-
Our wonder and gratitude in the eyes of the conductor, at both the beginning and end. Excellent.
-
The most phenomenal soprano I've heard in a while - wonderful. what a stunning orchestra, choir and soloists - love the energy of conductor - so tune with the whole spiel -his eyes are captivated with the music and experience.
