I had the enormous priviledge last weekend of standing on the same platform as Iestyn and hearing this performed live, when he joined the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir for our annual Messiah. All I can say is that it was an absolute joy to hear such a wonderful performance. If you ever get the chance to hear him live, don't miss it - you won't be disappointed!
I also like this version. Intelligent and well-sung, with a two octave range, very unusual for this voice type. He is not afraid to sing down to the bottom of the contralto range.
Like a crystal bell.

@swtkerima Haha, I would hope he's better. He's one of the best countertenors on earth.

I particularly love the restrained use of ornamentation.
