  • shreds almost a minute off the time though haha. Sounds like it gets faster and faster, some parts sound better that way others drag and make it not fun to listen to.

  • That's the fastest I've ever heard it!

  • way to step out of the proverbial box. BRAVO for your courage

  • What a shame, tempo is way too fast... it ruins such a beautiful piece imho.

  • Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

    Wow!

    This is too fast. The singers are unable to articulate the notes of the melismas, or runs.

    The glory of Handelian Baroque oratorio solo and tutti choral music is the beautiful sound of the many florid, tuneful melismas or runs.

    That glory is lost when the tempo is so fast that the notes cannot be articulated by the singers and distinguished by the ears of the listeners.

    I love fast tempos.

    But, not so fast that the notes cannot be sung.

    Have a Dovely.

  • Sorry, but I have to protest that it is too fast! I'm up for a spirited tempo, but don't rush it!

  • Quién los persigue?

  • Lectura sumamenta rápida y poco expresiva, carece de profundidad.

  • this is so fast, fun

  • far too fast
