The spirit of GAMBO - Orlando Gibbons - The Silver Swan

Cracking singer. Could be a bit more expressive, but what a beautiful tone.

nice! ive been looking for a soprano solo version of this piece (that didn't suck)

its absolutely gorgeous thank you for posting this

@kkalleb: inexpressive, yes, but not that much. A choirboy might have made it sound a little sweeter, though.

gratefully yours,

She nails the pitches. A really moving, and unquestionably perfect rendition of this piece was recorded by The King Singers, just one (male) countertenor plus a smaller ensemble, on their Madrigal History Tour album.

@askapornographer They are the best, by a looong way, at this rep. Wish I could get hold of a copy of the VHS/DVD of the whole series...alas it is not available, apart from the little clips on here.

Gorgeous sound in the instrumental consort. I found the soprano a little inexpressive.

Song-not-dead that's for sure. just never mind me.
