  • Händel with piano???? That is absolutely not-going!!!!

  • imagine to justify why did not you do the best jump in the olimpyc games . is only an excuse. VOID. FAILED . ( dont start arguin whatever such a thing - not talking about me or you- i might be the best in what i do or i dont eat , i m a lawyer.)

  • Again, as in another "coloratura" song, this was taken too fast to maintain a vital ringing tone all through the melismas. You have a lovely instrument Edward, but efficient ringing phonation does not need to be (or if I were your teacher I would say, "must not be") compromised in those fast running passages. I look forward to hearing you do this again in the future. You do resemble the English vocal perspective - a la Stephen Varco. Listen to John Cheek. Teddy Rhodes has achieved speed too.

  • The Arpeggiatura don't exactly let it down, but support and imagine you are singing down rather than up, and you might be getting there. Apart from that, great, rich bass voice! It gets a bit thin towards the middle as well, just saying! WELL DONE!

  • The voice good but coloratura passages bad sung.You must training more legato and listening good Handel's bass singers like: Neal Davies,Peter Harvey and Davis Thomas.

    Good luck!

  • Please dont call them runs, thats not proper musical terminology, it's either a malisma or arpeggiatura.....

  • Nice, but support the runs!

  • Very nice; as Kinchan said the runs however seem a little..odd. They don't sound properly supported - I like what you're trying to do in getting every note across rather then bludgeoning through them like a lot of baritones, but everything is fantastically well sung and you just seem to lose..confidence on the triplets.

  • Nice singing...One thing is you bring the resonance to the mouth instead of the chest only in the running notes which seems a tenor voice in those runs..You got a good accompanist...Just a small practice in those runs will make your singing better..

  • too faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast !!!why coloraturas are somehow sotto voce?I dont know how to describe it...
