Llevo más de 20 años escuchando "música clásica" y esto es de lo más impresionante que jamás he oido. Simplemente, no parece música de este mundo, sino algo superior.
And does anyone else feel that his voice sounds strained? The only countertenor I have heard that doesn't seem to have a strained voice and a fast vibrato is Bejun Mehta.
Si tienen dudas, o cualquier tipo de preguntas sobre la voz del contra-tenor mandenme un imei a luis_paulino_tico@hotmail.com los contestare a cualquier hora y con gusto. es mejor que sepan sobre dicha voz a inventar algunas cosas que no van con la verdad.
Frondi tenere e belle del mio platano amato per voi risplenda il fato. Tuoni, lampi, e procelle non v'oltraggino mai la cara pace, nè giunga a profanarvi austro rapace. Ombra mai fu di vegetabile, cara ed amabile, soave più. Tender and beautiful fronds of my beloved plane tree, let Fate smile upon you. May thunder, lightning, and storms never bother your dear peace, nor may you by blowing winds be profaned. A shade there never was, of any plant, dearer and more lovely, or more sweet.
Scholl's version is beautiful. Listen to Kathleen Ferrier's rendition for feeling. She's out of fashion these days. And, OK, not the most technically gifted artist. But just listen and weep.
@Cissy97 Andreas Scholl’s rendition is the most pure-voiced (“voci bianché”); therefore, I like his authentic Baroque voice; whereas Kowalski’s performance has a more dramatic, perhaps emotional, sound.
Mit Sicherheit ist die Arie: Xerxes - "Ombra mai fù" eines der bewegendsten Werke des Georg Friedrich Händel. Erstklassige Interpretation von Andreas Scholl.
@danaivnv The general interest in Barqoue vocal music has been renewed only relatively recently. Consequently, many people do not understand and have not learned what a Baroque voice / castrato voice should sound like. The purity of of Scholl's voice is, as you say, exceptionally excellent for this kind of music.
@aravis123 This short, Handel aria is one of the most famous and popular arias of all; therefore, you should be able to come up with music scores for both vocal and for instrumental. Try a web search and also music score stores and distributors.
I think this equalls Nicholas Spanos version......the first time I have been able to say that, so far. Nicholas is by far and away my favourite, he is so relaxed and makes the most difficult pieces seem easy. On the whole he is, for me. a level above every other countertenor..
@altischachtle I agree. It's otherworldly indeed. You might wish to listen to Nicholas Spanos's version of this aria for comparison as well. It's otherworldly too. Thanks for uploading.

Very good rendition by Herr Scholl, but I prefer to Herr Kowalski's.

@valentinian2003 Ich bin damit einverstanden. Seine Stimme ist rein, präzise und möglichst nahe an den Kastratenstimme wie möglich.
