The speed is insane, but about right. I tried singing along and it's a lot easier at this speed if you *have* a vocal technique.
It is in 6/8 which is 2 in a bar...
Asawa doesn't really phrase off zion though, which arguably he *should* since the 2nd syllable is naturally weaker than the first when you say it (i.e. a "feminine" ending).

His voice is rather feminine though...

what's with the casino? i feel like it really doesn't apply. Jesus' birth wasn't about flashiness and pomp.

wow, I was fooled during the recitative, I though it was a woman!

Now this is the way this aria should be done! Minkowski is the greatest conductor in the world!

How fun! Yes, a crazy tempo, but nice to have, and coupled with film makes great brain food.

Oh, excuse me for that! I love it even more now =]]

The singer is not a woman, but a counter-tenor : Brian Asawa.
Nice pictures.
I played Kathleen Ferrier, while this was playing; instead of the featured artist -have you been to Las Vegas?
Was that you in the white toweling gown? at 2:34.
I found Las Vegas to be a bit too much like a resort town, the people were very friendly and so too, were the locals I met, there.
What say you?
Cheers.
