  • Is this the Glyndborne production? I'm so jealous of everyone who went to this production. Awesome.

    What's the instrument called again accompanying the recit sort of thing between 1:42 and 2:15. Stringed, bowed, chordal instruments with similar timbres to an accordion. Used throughout the piece.

    This is William Christie in orchestra right?

  • Yes this is the Glyndborne produciton although it's E. Haim conducting, not Christie. Dont know the asnwer to the instruments question. Sorry for the late reply. Happy New Year!!!!

  • He's Welsh not English

  • his voice is soooooo hott!!!

  • He is a very promising singer, with a great sound, and I don't say that easily, since I am not fond of the countertenor voice. I much prefer a full-bodied contralto. However, I would love to hear him sing Or La Tromba. I think he would do a fantastic job.

  • @nmedley  I agree, It's without doubt a lirone.

  • does anyone got the lyrics please ?

  • @nmedley It's the Lirone I think.

  • sublime...

    

  • @MrSwifts31 I'm afraid he's English, from Yorkshire, if I'm not mistaken, though he does have a Welsh name....

  • He is great,but by the way he is WESLH not English!
