Wow!!!

Wonderful ❤

Very moving performance. Bravo!

Brilliant

Very nice indeed. Bryn terfl hits this song out of the ballpark. On cd. I imagine this singer can record this on cd just as well. Fyi. Get Vaughn William's sea symphony shimell handley. The very best. Amazing.

❤

After I heard your voice at the opera "Eugene Onegin" in Hanover, my life was divided into before and after.

Beautiful.

Beauty. Beautiful..

this is absolutely incredible

Bryn Terfel 2.0

how beautiful mate!!

A wonderful performance of the two voices, great acting as well as a glorious voice

Both! Wonderful!

Wonderful voice!

Lovely. Pity the cameraperson couldn't keep still!

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most beautiful song written by any English composer.

Beautifully done - love it 😢

Magnificent! Quite simply a magnificent rendition of this heart wrenching piece. Such an expressive voice used to convey the tragedy in the lyrics.....I am in tears..

Hey cousin , good to see the hall looking majestic as always, i would love to visit one day to see it. Keep posting ❤.

Heard this sung at a Glyndebourne family day today - and very happy indeed to hear it again sung by you - remembering the occasions you've sung in Lewes with my choir - lovely performance here, thank you

English song is going to be well-served in the future with singers like this. Fantastic performance!

This was absolutely wonderful! Your strong voice, beautiful German diction and your sense of humor! In case you will ever read this, James Newby - true story. When I was young (must have been about 1966), I loved the "Zauberflöte", saw the opera many times. I also had a crush on the local tenor (or baritone) in my hometown. And after sitting through many performances, I finally worked up the courage, and in this particular moment when Papageno calls out to save him, anybody, please, counting to three, I called out into the full opera house: "Ja, ich!!" Slight confusion in the orchestra, very upset seniors shushing me, and Papageno, visibly a bit rattled, continued on. What else was he going to do? The best thing: a few weeks later, I happened to listen to a local radio show where the conductor was asked if he could remember something unusual happening during a performance. He said, yes, in fact just the other day, during "Zauberflöte" someone in the audience offered to save Papageno by calling out to him....adding "the whole orchestra laughed all night!" This was one of the highlights of my youth, my two minutes of fame. Later in my life, living on a different continent, I worked at a Crisis Centre and got trained in suicide prevention. I did not need the training, I had started early, but nobody knew that....My husband and I heard you in concert two days ago, in Baden-Baden, performing "Die Schöne Müllerin", followed by your delightful workshop on "Erlkönig". Afterwards I talked to both of you briefly in the restaurant, thanking you for bringing Goethe back to Germany, you and Joseph Middleton, two Englishmen. Just wanted to tell you my story! Best of luck! You are such a discovery, hope to hear you in concert again soon....maybe as Papageno in "Zauberflöte"? But no worries, I am old and well-behaved now....

Hauntingly beautiful and very touching James! Sending much love! Bravi you two 😘

You have a fascinating voice. Congratulations. Hope you a have a wonderful 23/24 season.

Beautiful piece and beautiful voice!

Sounds like a Paul Verlaine poem?

Amazing diction, timbre and tone. Good job Mr. Newby.

Such a sensitive and moving rendition of this beautiful song, thank you for sharing!

I heard this singer last night in Vienna, fine performance. Especially the Beethoven and the humorous modern rendering of a passage from Casanova's memoirs (composer: Judith Bingham). His voice was almost too big for the small concert hall (Brahmssaal, Musikverein). We had to move to the back of the concert hall! :)

Simply beautiful

Bloody hell, this lad is not only a great singer, but a beauty too.

Bravo!!!

Möge das Glück bei Dir sein, noch ganz ferne der Tod, der seine Spur jeden Tag zieht und Umarmung aus Hamburg , B.

Sehr schön phrasiert mit schönstem Timbre !!!!!

Is this a murder ballad? I'm more inclined to answer No now I find that it's "the land and not "the field" that the unfortunate plough man is buried under. It's a nice distinction though.

I did not know the song ...I did not know the singer... forgive me, but now I know. I was blown away, like many others before me (so I read) What a voice. Thanks to RUclips 6 years after this was recorded you can still welcome new admirers. One of the best younger baritons I came across lately. Of course now finding my way back on youtube to the beginning of your career! Very best regards from the Netherlands (hence I didn't know him so far) at the (almost) last day of the year and a blessed 2022 to you. By the way: plenty of concert halls in Holland!!! And conveniently between England and Germany! Looking forward!!

What a talent. Very inspiring.

Well done mate, well bloody done.

Beautiful voice as always my distance cousin

Wow. Just, wow.

♾ ❤️

Ahhhhh mate this is beaut x

Love this James! Character pieces really suit the diverse timbre of your voice! X
