This is the best rendition of this song I have found, I can make out all the ups and downs which is so helpful and I am trying to learn it just now. Thank you.
To anybody who thinks you should take it faster: THIS tempo is quite perfect, I think. The other recordings on youtube go so fast you can't make them out half the time! Triumph doesn't mean running so fast you trip :-)
I'm singing this song in a music festival coming up pretty soon and I definitely know what you mean by run crazy! It's fun though. I really enjoyed listening to you sing this though. This style suits your voice beautifully. :)
from someone who really enjoyed singing this piece. You really have a great voice for the early music. I'd love to hear you sing more Purcell and I think Dowland would suit your voice well too. Do you like singing the early music? (Its my favorite! With Franz Schubert coming in a close second :-))
Thank you so much for your comments!! I will definitely mention your suggestions to my voice teacher...to be perfectly honest I am not too familiar with music literature yet and I just started lessons last fall, so, I'm not sure what exactly I like singing yet! Haha...but I definitely had fun with this piece. I'm actually singing a lot of opera and musical theatre right now but I'll probably go back to some of the early stuff next semester. Thanks a lot!! :)
GOODNESS!! For someone who started lessons so recently, you can sing your HEAD off. I mean, I was impressed before, but now I'm even more so. I've been a singing geek for years and there's no way I could take on Hark the Echoing Air!
Very nice, I just finished singing this myself (however as a tenor, even though the character really is a soprano, lol). Interesting, this arrangement is just a touch different. Also, have you looked at any ornamentation on both repeats (I am actually writing up a project right now for music history on ornamentation using this as an example) and perhaps a bit quicker and bit more triumphant. Singing it faster actually helped me with the breath control issues. Just a few humble suggestions,
pretty voice :-) how old are you - or - were you when this was recorded?

the pianist is wonderful and captured the style perfectly! I love the articulation very light yet supportive and controlled.

You have such a lovely voice, BelleRose! Well done! Could it be a trifle faster --i.e. more triumphant?

Too bad you used a piano rather than a harpsichord. It would have made it sound authentic and more convincing. However, I like your voice!
