Monteverdi,"La musica",Ensemble Il Giardinetto del Paradiso

[mrmolinodelahoz]

The musicians are great but the audience are ignorant noisy swine.

Where do they think they are talking while the most beautiful sound is in the room?

[grdeyt]

Fantastisch! Fünf sterne.

[8R8]

Lovely!!

Very sweet voice...i like "feminine" sopranos like her, as opposed to deep massive ones...

Also, they create very nicely the athmosphere of the piece with just three instruments!

[thecritiquevirtuoso]

but definitely better than montserrat figueroa.

I would never listen to anything played by asian people designed to be played by europeans.

[Kaidona]

I don't mean to seem in any sense of the word rude, but that has to be the most ignorant thing I've ever seen said by any one person. What is wrong with you? Music is not "designed" to be played by any one race/ethnicity/what have you. Music is music. Music is meant to be played by people regardless of where they, or the music comes from.

[SieglindeMoos]

I don't think that person's comment is worthy of a response. It is simply not only ignorant, but just plain dumb.

[Kaidona]

Perhaps not, but there are some things that I just have to reply to. >.<; When things get stupid enough, something in my head tells me I absolutely must say something. It's weird, but this is an example of it.

[SieglindeMoos]

OK. Good point. "Make a difference!"

[Kaidona]

Yeah, pretty much. It certainly made -me- feel better.

[dolofonos]

It nevertheless brings up an interesting point. What of traditional or sacred music? What would you say of Europeans playing the music of American natives in costume--but wait, do not answer--if you could _choose_ between those Native-Americans and the Europeans then which performance would you prefer? And what would _some_ of _them_ perhaps prefer, they who had been robbed of their land? I mean to imply nothing, but only ask questions to stimulate a truthful perspective before judgment.

[mrmolinodelahoz]

We can agree that the American Indian situation is an ongoing and unheald would.

Isreal gets more attention then our own people? But i don´t understand the point you are trying to make. The indians lost the land and the Jews took the land.

what´s the moral out of all this.

[firebreathone]

Arent you being racist?

[thecritiquevirtuoso]

uhhhhh YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

[mcarthurrobert]

I would suggest that skill is a more important factor than race.

[DannyDaWriter]

I prefer performance quality over race, thank you.

[flybyguy]

Simple yet stirring... wonderful!

[Jitpring]

Wonderful!

[qwe07]

Good job! Sings AND plays the recorder!
