Por dios!! como explota la belleza este hombre!! lo veo y re veo...y me fascina cada vez más.... Lindo demasiado lindo hasta para el parámetro de mis gustos... Eres mi contra tenor favorito Andreas!!!

I'm breathless with awe!

Sorry to seem a bit terse but i hate it when people say things like "Pop music is just neo-baroque" because that is absolute garbage...

well Andreas Scholl IS a uniqe vocal event! Counter tenors are not that uncommon but an amazing counter tenor like Andreas, is. The high male voice has pretty much always been accepted in the world of classical music, but everyone thinks Freddy Mercury and Mika a bit weird. Neil Sedaka does indeed sing high but i dont think his falsetto screams are comparable to the amazing rich voice of Andreas Scholl.

[sopranosd]

He totally does!

I adore high male voices -- it's wonderful to hear such a perfect counter voice, and to hear the classical high male voices accepted and celebrated again. It's also lovely to hear the finest of these voices appreciate the value of popular music, the ONLY place where the very good high male voices have been celebrated for the last 100 years.

People are so strange -- they'll sing along to Neil Sedaka in the car without comment, and then act like Scholl is some strange, unique vocal event. :-)
