@Cissy97 Agreed, such wonderful performances should be recorded and not only on YT. I'd like to know it too where I could get this performance.I'm lucky that I have this recording with Michael Chance. Still can't decide whose version I like more - they are both so great and different!:-)But Kowalski is so special to me and I will always be very gratel to him as he was the first countertenor I've heard and he practically turned my whole world showing all the beauty of baroque and early classicism
@JkoveTheCountertenor Of course they are fake. They're not going to bring in real cows, that's ridiculous. They would crap all over first of all...and then there would be all problems they would cause with the choreography.
Yes indeed, Jochen Kowalski is a great countertenor! For his time!!! Now's the time for the young ones, and Bejun Mehta's the best!!! Such a feeling, such an interpretation of what he's singing, never seen before!
Kowalski is a great countertenor of all time! You found somewhat feeling in Bejun Mehta's singing?! It's only vocal acrobatic and no soul at all! Kowalski has everything!
Where can we get this video?
Such wonderful performances (by the singer as well as the 'animals').
Truly lovely.

what aria is this?
doitbitch 3 years ago
It's "Puo Ben Nascere Fra i Boschi" It is from Handel's Giustino. I think It's being sung in another Language; German Perhaps.

He's such a wonderful singer... and he also manages to be masculine at the same time, which is pretty incredible. :)
Does anyone have any vids from when he was Orlofsky in Die Fledermaus? I keep trying to find it on YouTube and keep being disappointed.

yeah, and how the hell does he manage to concentrate on his singing and control his breath while having to "fight" those cows? nice video.
i saw kowalski as Daniel in Handel's Belshazar 10 years ago. a most impressive figure on stage.

This is the best Giustino I've ever heard. Michael Chance's Giustino isn't as good as this
