  • What do you guys think of the singers staying on the G for "giv" instead of going down to the f#?

  • @TheHaverfordNotables It's an ornament over the F#. I think the result is good. Today sounds me odd if the F#

    is gotten directly, without the G.

  • this is the tidiest song from Messiah Oratorio

  • It seems Sir Neville Marriner ( conductor )likes very much that part too. Have you notice his smile when the part starts?

  • así es, Sir Neville sonríe ante uno de los fragmentos más alegres del oratorio, los coros son magníficos realmente. Gracias codonauta por subir estos videos.

  • Yes, the corus are perfect, indeed.

  • What a brilliant and precisely-singing soprano! I'm envious. She's this kind of singer that's perfectly suited to Handels music: No overdone vibrato and a light and pure voice... ♥

  • As the producer of this production, I am glad that so many people enjoy the performances of these wonderful artists, nearly 20 yrs later.

    Thank you for posting it.

  • I have and old recording of this piece, and it was performed with percussion. Timpani, cymbals, bass drums, bells, - all the section. Maybe Mr. Marriner didn't like to use this version of the score...?

  • @Marthieka

    what do you mean by order? The order in the score, the range? In both cases viole are before celli.

  • 0:30, das Wasserschwein ist tot ; es hat viel Skill ;)

  • @TheHaverfordNotables Hmm, kind of how we were taught to ornament for this stage of Baroque - (that you always approach those moments from the note above) so used to people singing it that way.

  • This is really the composition of all times.

  • @zv03 sorry my mistake =D
