I Attempt From Love's Sickness to Fly Bartione Solo

"I Attempt From Love's Sickness to Fly" by Henry Purcell. Tell me whatcha think.

I'm not too happy with the first repeat of the A section. I think "Fly" and "pain" are a bit flat because they're a tad heavy. But this is my best take so far. So I'm posting this.

For those unhappy with the Amber video by me, this is more in my range. Much more. Yaaay! Baritone!

Bass 1 against me for VA honors choir this fall? hopefully i'll see you there!

some tips:

-try to show the text while keeping the vocal line smooth, esp on the "fly" run.

-keep that ah vowel a little brighter than you have it now, it should be tall without sounding forced.

-avoid closing to the consonant too early, there are a few places in this video where it sounds choppy (every "sick" you're turning into an eighth note, for example).

-overall, dont sacrifice good singing for baroque styling

Aaah~ You won't see me there because I cannot try out! I'm only a rising highschool junior. I did this because I was bored and I was trying to get the song out of my head after hearing it a bajillion times this past year.

Great comments though! I'll really take these to heart and try them out to try and improve myself so I really thank you for that.

Not great.

Don't sing the melismae on this song so forcefully - just let the notes flow freely. Also, work on your breathing - I can hear you trying to breathe outside the directed marks... Make sure you are filling up in your diaphragm and depleting all of the air before each phrase.

don't strain you throat by putting a "H" sound in front of your vowels. like when you sing the trill for the word "fly" you put an H in front of the each word. force your sound and breath to come from as low in your stomach as possible. not from you throat or chest. but sounds good man :)

Excuse me but that is extremely rude! If you don't like it, than why not give a reason why and a few tips if you think you could do better!
