Vivaldi: Quel passagier son io - Philippe Jaroussky

[Aquilante01]

Lyrics: Quel passagier son io che vo cercando in te, mia bella, amore e fé, e sol ritrovo, oh Dio, rigore e crudeltà. E pur costante, Irene, bella nemica mia, men orgogliosa e ria, spero che di mie pene un giorno avrai pietà

[taf289]

@Aquilante01 Che bello!!!! Starei la vita ad ascoltare questo genio del barocco.

MI viene in mente Leopardi che non inseguiva la bellezza femminile in senso lato, ma bramava la bellezza con la "B" maiuscola; era innamorato perso della BELLEZZA. e cercava la BELLEZZA mai lontanamente egualiata da nessuna donna, da Silvia ad Aspasia. Il primo verso di questo canto mi rimanda a queste considerazioni Leopardiane. Taf289

[MrDarknesslover]

amo este hombre!!

[nivique]

I've listened to this piece like a hundred times already and can't seem to get enough of it. How funny that after two years of discovery I still keep listening and there's not a lot of music can possibly do that to me nowadays. Precious music sung by a godlike-voiced countertenor, good gracious, what a perfect match.

[eustazio]

@nivique am exactly the same!!

[alecenturion]

Please someone have this music sheet?

[thebejaouia]

voix d ange!!vraiment envoutante!!!un vrai geni!!

[voncarmelo]

Favoloso!!!!

[beke8]

my oppinion is that this is jarrousskys best song

i love listening to his music and i am only 18 years old

[anca1966]

Je pourrais ecouter à l'infini Jaroussky et Vivadi...deux genies!!!!Merci beaucoup !

[vivalamusicaclassica]

io lo amo <3

[Ivanbelastegui]

I think he is very good, but I still find it difficult to hear male countenors. There is something in the sound that I don´t like. Anyway, he does allways top performances. Thanks for posting

[Trebiduag]

Une si belle mélodie chantée par une si belle voix ne peut qu'enchanter . Merci

[brunopellegrino2]

Non ho parole per descrivere l'emozione nell 'ascoltare il pezzo. Grazie Philippe.

[Myrtusz1]

ppl, if you like him and would like to hear an other male soprano, who became famous this year, then just search this here on youtube: "Vásáry André 5th element"

And if you like him, please comment or rate and i will answer you:)).

[andramezzo]

best

[afrikaangi]

Perfect!

[miata666]

totally awesome . I'm a big fan of him

[brigittedeval]

Years ago I heard you sing in Montisi /Italy in a concert organized from Bruce.

And now for almost tree years I open YouTube with this aria and your angel like voice fills for some instants my room like a breeze of cherry blossoms hovering over a construction zone, till the last vibration of tone is vanishing

Finally THANK YOU!

[eldadevata]

his incredible. the only male singer that can actually sing a Vivaldi aria.

Vivaldi was the greatest, Philippe is an angel with an angel voice.

[jewish1972]

the fact that the play is performed with original instruments makes it more interesting

[whomakemefeel]

Countertenor Philippe Jaroussky is an uncontested specialist of baroque music, but here he is changing course, sailing into completely new waters: the repertoire of French song. Still in evidence are the fundamental qualities of his voice: purity of line, precise execution, intelligent reading of the text. But he has also found the right tone, delicate yet unmannered, for this other musical style

[athiria]

Very good, indeed!

[chin2000000]

bravo!!!

[Nattyduck]

Could you please upload this video. The music is so great. Thank you.

[civileso]

What video?

[Nattyduck]

I am sorry. I meant audio of course.

[tritonusgesang]

Wie wunderbar, diese Musik! - Und so eine schöne Countertenorstimme! - Philippe, je t'embrasse! Merci!

[Nattyduck]

It's so beautiful, absolutely innocent, pure, simply divine...Thank you very much indeed.

[civileso]

Oh goodness! *dies*

Would you be so kind to... er.. I mean.. umm, the scores, ahem.. send them, *coughs* to me, maybe? :)

[civileso]

Hey, thanks! I'd really want to sing these cantatas.

I left Texas some 10 months ago, though.. But, I agree that Texas and even the whole US in general needs more baroque singers, musicians and enthusiasts.

[dmusicbug]

Thank you for post the lyric, it is fun ti singing alone !!!

[flaviotrue]

Adoro a Vivaldi y que mejor que tener estas arias en la magnifica voz de Jaroussky.

[ellesapellepuka]

tu voz es prodigiosa jaroussky, es dulce, sublime y profundamente hermosa, lo mas chido es que tienes al mismo nivel la técnica y la interpretación.muchas felicitaciones.

[richard8114]

no hay contratenor como Jaroussky¡ es el mejor sin duda alguna

[Viahandel06]

Like David Daniels and Andreas Scholl, this one captures my heart effortlessly. Simply marvelous!!

[manemane52]

rarement expression vocale a trouvé un tel interprète , chaque note est pure

[ro0cknr0oll]

vly

[wujingcdh]

Scholl is my favorite countertenor,but i love Jaroussky as well,why people keep trying to make one winner from them?they both have their own unique voice. none of them is replaceable. thanks for this.谢谢分享！

[JeanPaulRed]

I don't know. My favourite is David Daniels - very masculine voice:-)But I like Scholl and Jaroussky too. And I don't like Ragin.

[Takumikat]

Magnifique :')

[SHAKEDATBOOTYLEILA]

am a singing teacher...and think you are wrong...he has a really pure tone...and so suited to this style of music and singing....there are so many many delicate moments

[GRANBESTIA]

Cantas tan lindo como lindo eres Jaroussky

[tastibasti]

the song is called rigore crudelta. not quel passagier son io

[civileso]

The ARIA is called Quel passagier son io, just as usually, named after the first verse of it as in any other aria.. No exceptions here.

[cuicuimusic]

haha i don't like it too when people call an ario a song !!

[MehdiCaps]

Hehe! and I don't like it when people call an aria an ario. ;) (j/k)

[civileso]

Silliness all over, lol :)))

[cuicuimusic]

@civileso i had missed that reply, haha

[civileso]

@cuicuimusic

Bwahahahaaa!!! :D

Nice to see you around. I hope all is well.

Cheers :)

[Masamuneblader]

lol well it is sung as he is singing and is thus a form of song.

[drjotais]

Todo genial pero ... este es Jaroussky

Que importa como cantan los otros ???

Philippe es un fenomeno y punto.

[Tigermuc]

Like an angel!

Christian

[serse72]

The problem is: how he sing live? And second ...he understand the words? Probably no! The voice is always sweet even in furioso arias!

[civileso]

I have to agree with you. Just watch his version of Handel's "A Dispetto". He is supossed to be mad with rage, but try as he might to at least look furious, he only looks cute:))) It is strange about him. Seems to me he doesn't have a lot of insight into the text or to the roles he sings as a whole character. Or he is just too young and needs more dramatic direction.

[serse72]

well...cute?I have different beauty models...

How old is Jaroussky?You do a perfect analysis of his voice. Especially in hight note his voice is little and screeching. He cant sing music after 1600. How destroy a singer! Who is your favourite countertenor? Ciao

[civileso]

Haha! when I said "cute" I didn't mean it as most of his fans mean. No, indeed I think he looks very silly for a grown man. I meant "cute" like a teddy bear or sth.. YOu know, he convinces you that he is furious as much as a teddy bear can, lol! I heard him to be 27 or 31, but don't know for a fact. But that age is very young for an opera singer.

[civileso]

My favorite is doubtless Scholl. A very close 2nd is Ragin, in fact I'm split between them. These guys have some expression in their singing, and have nothing to do with glamour and spotlight. Art as pure as you can get it! I like others in different aspects, Kowalski, Jacobs, Christofelis, Bowman, Deller, Daniels, etc. But to me Scholl is the best by far not only among countertenors, but accross the board as an artist, performer, scholar, pioneer and as a plain ordinary person.

[serse72]

Scholl is very professional, Kowalski is incredible on stage and his voice is beautifull, i do not like Jacobs ...he has a strange voice..You know any italian countertenor? Claudio Cavina is very good.He was my teacher. :-)

[civileso]

I don't know any Italian ones. I'm extremely interested in this voice type and I'd like to listen to him as well. I heard a lot of amateur countertenors that I really liked but the thing is, these guys are very shy about public reaction in general (if they're not shy, they are famous, lol!), they only sing when nobody's around! Such a shame! There's a guy at work who sings along sometimes. when I hear him, I think my heart's gonna stop! But he's more secure doing customer service, lol!

[ceph77]

I don't agree. Meanwhile PJ isn't properly an actor, but a singer, and his voice is extraordinary live. He's 29 years old and singing on stage from 21. If you see Ragin's "A dispetto" you can note difference in to pass from head voice and chest voice (it's very rough). Scholl has a very beautiful voice live but small compared with PJ's. BTW he's releve for Daniels and Scholl, and his voice is still winning in depth.

[ceph77]

You must have to see him in rehearsals: he enchants until a regisseurs cause he marks a great technical difference and in voice beauty with the rest. His high note is beautiful, like a child. And he has the same vocal range as Daniels. I recommend you to hear him live. And I'm studying countertenor voices... and I have heard many of them live. Regards.

[civileso]

I think he has extraordinarily beautiful voice, but nevertheless he lacks expression for the most part. I would love to hear him live, unfortunately here in the US, specially in Texas, we don't get much of cultural venues.. I believe he is going to become a really great artist in time.. But for dramatic roles, I don't think he has the necessary depth of emotion coming across yet.. But that's just my opinion.

[ceph77]

I can tell you that in live concerts he enchants and captures the audience, musically and expressively. In addition, most of the roles he has done in opera are not dramatic. BTW, he is not considered himself a major dramatic player. I don't think that Scholl or Daniels or Ragin be good actors... Perhaps Kowalski.

[civileso]

Like I said I was never able to go to his concerts, I have only watched some of his live footagea and he seems very shallow as far as expression.. You may be right about the difference between the real thing and a recorded concerts.. Daniels certainly isn't a good actor.. Ragin.. I never saw him act, but I know he can voice act. So can Scholl and Daniels, especially in his recent work.

[ceph77]

I recommend you his version of "Scherza infida" on his new cd about Carestini. Wonderful!!!! Pure emotion.

Best regards.

[civileso]

Yes, that is certainly the style he sings teh best after Vivaldi.

[emfian]

There is a little error in the text: it is "men orgogliosa e ria", not "men orgoglioso e ria": they are both feminine adjectives.

[civileso]

Thanks, I fixed it..

[ismail1985]

Sweet, soothing. Thanks for sharing, resmen büyülendim.

[civileso]

Yes, Jaroussky did a good job on this one. Vivaldi's music is so captivatingly beautiful...

[rober20df]

E realidad no soy muy aficionado a la voz del contratenor, pero este hombre pudo hacerme escucharle y en realidad me hiso querer escuchar mas de el... es maravilloso...

[charliep3]

I was sure I didn't care for the counter tenor sound till i heard this guy.

[BaroqueFever]

He's definitely one of the best countertenors around. Check out my videos :-)

[firebreathone]

Euh.. It doesn't load.. Why not?

[civileso]

Hmm.. not sure.. Is it still not loading?

[Alrick54]

The sweetest aria of the album : BUY IT !!! Quel passagier son io che vo cercando in te, mia bella, amore e fé, e sol ritrovo, oh Dio, rigore e crudeltà. E pur costante, Irene, bella nemica mia, men orgoglioso e ria, spero che di mie pene un giorno avrai pietà.

[Alrick54]

That traveller am I,

who seek in you,

my fair one, love and constancy,

and find only, oh God,

severity and cruelty.

And yet stil faithful to you, Irene,

my lovely adversary,

I hope that one day, less haughty

and wicked, you will have

pity on my suffering.

[civileso]

You are great! Thanks so much!

[Alrick54]

You're welcome:-) Don't have the score though, sorry

[civileso]

That's ok.. I cannot find the score, it seems to be out of stock in all the bookstores.. I wonder why:)))

[MarkBellinghaus]

Sorry I am so super busy, but sometimes a break with your beautiful taste is a must.

Best,

Mark ;O)

[civileso]

Don't be sorry:) I'm not cross or anything. Take care!

[MarkBellinghaus]

Wonderful!

5*****

[civileso]

Thanks Mark.. Nice to see you around!

[firebreathone]

Thanks for your videos.

[civileso]

You are welcome...
