Sound the Trumpet - Henry Purcell

A recording of me and my music teacher (I am the soprano, he is the countertenor) singing Purcell's 'Sound the Trumpet' during my A2 recital.

Please excuse the pianist (a last-minute appointment) and my nerves...

Nice work. Kudos to both of you!

[MaeWestsKnickers]

This is very good, well done! I take it there are more recent recordings to which it can be compared?

this is the first amateur video on youtube that I've listened to where the people can actually sing . . . I mean this song needs work sure . . . but you can tell even with all the mistakes that the singers voices are great . . . bravo

He's got a fantastic voice!  I'm trying to improve my upper register at the moment. Very difficult! Just lots of practice needed.

This is so good. It also proves a point I've been trying to make to by friends about the different timbre's of male and female singing, no matter what pitching. Thank you! I do hope you got a good grade for this, you deserve to.

nice!

i like how you roll your Rs so beautifully! :D

your trills need some work though, esp those at the top, needs more "bounce" and not so much of a line.

your countertenor teacher did it beautifully :)

anw your teacher has a nice countertenor voice! hahaa does he sing in the alto range?

[Jarhead4400]

you should work on your enunciation, this particular piece doesn't call for quite a cheery voice as the one you provided. With that said your diction is good in some parts. Keep working and you will get it down!

[blairerox]
