Великий композитор. Браво!

why a counter tenor? give an alto a go!

Il Caro Sassone era veramente un grande compositore. Questa sonata ha solo archi e basso continuo: e la sua bellezza risiede proprio nel suono scolpito di questi strumenti! È irresistibile. L’Ensemble cesella gli “affetti” in modo nitido e profondo. Molto bella l’interpretazione delle protagoniste in particolare di Cleopatra. Ma io preferisco la scelta di Hasse. Un contralto per Marc’Antonio e un soprano (castrato, oggi un ottimo controtenore) nel ruolo di Cleopatra. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍😍😍

Sin palabras, gracias por tanta belleza.

Soberbio Hasse

Me estaba perdiendo una delicia.

A wonderfully spirited performance of excellent music. Fantastic singing!

Danke❤

Johann Adolf Hasse was born in 1699 near Hamburg but moved to Naples to study opera seria with Alessandro Scarlatti & Nicola Porpora at barely 21 years of age - this particular ‘Serenata’ (typically hour-long operatic works played during grand Dinners whilst patrons ate, gambled & talked) ‘Marc’Antonio e Cleopatra’ was written in 1725 and was his first major success - carefully written to suit the voice of the infamous castrato Farinelli (who played Cleopatra) and had to make severe adjustments for the ‘dramatic but very weaker’ voice of Vittoria Tesi whose ‘dramatic action’ on the stage was superb but ‘spoke through most of her music’ - Hasse’s later triumphs included Artaserse several years later that made him a household name and guaranteed him a lucrative position as Court Composer at Dresden at a salary 60-times that of J.S. Bach slaving-away & pulling out his hair in Leipzig - and in 1731 married soprano Faustina Bordoni who also had worldwide notoriety commanding ridiculous salaries for her singing & acting talents - Hasse is greatly overlooked by modern audiences (he composer over 60 operas, more than a dozen of which are still technical masterpieces-just incredibly difficult to sing-or stage to-day) - but was still actively writing operas as late as November 1771 with Ruggiero written for Milan being his last (compos’d at the age of 72) - he is more than worthy of study & modern performance

Удобная опера для камерного состава. Оказывается и во времена Гассе было принято наряжать героев в современные постановщикам костюмы, можно даже играть не переодеваясь.

This is just wonderful - and exceptionally beautiful - music-making in a piece precisely about music's power to move its listeners.

Somebody composed this music? I wonder who.

I've just found this Hasse version of Anthony and Cleopatra. Superb video and Audio clarity. Recently i have become much more aware of just how good Hasse was and the two singers and ensemble really do him justice. I especially love the aria and its orchestration from 32 mins in... Just beautiful. Many baroque compositions from such as Hasse, Vinci and Porpora and others sound very modern. Thank you.

alto, no para un hombre cantando con falsete

👏😍👏

Why so fast the initial part?

Incredible Composer!😯

Kyrie eleison: 00:01 Gratias agimus tibi: 09:17 Cum Sancto Spiritu: 21:43

Masterpiece!

Esta es la gran aportación del Maestro como homenaje al Cuco y al Ruiseñor, bonito gesto el suyo para con la Naturaleza. Gracias Maestro!

Zelenka is an eternal genius,bravo for this Slowakian orchester,congratulations for the marvelous solists and for Zajicek!

Gorgeous joyful performance. 💗

Nádhera!

Say what you like Karl is still the world best by far .

BEAUTIFUL!

Thank you for this post; excellent performance - Martina Masarykova, soprano of Musica aeterna artisan Peter Zajíček.

Farinelli's public début

M Zelenka devait être possédé par une force divine pour atteindre une telle profondeur...une leçon de vie et de grâce ! Merci M Zelenka, je vous admire, votre répertoire m'aide à tenir chaque jour que Dieu me donne...

Hermosa pieza. Todas las arias y duos son bellisimos.

Way too fast. This is a prayer to the God, not a waltz. And I am quite sure that I can sing better than the countertenor.

Aria is exceptional!

14:37

Too fast. Not necessary or appropriate with such intricate music. Sounds absurd. Rhythmic pulse suffers as a result too. Couldn't you all wait to get down the pub or something 🙄

Hola me gusta mucho tu contenido, me he suscrito a tu canal, me gustaría vieras el mio, apenas comenzando en esta plataforma y si te gusta te suscribas también, un abrazo.

beautiful playing, especially the organist

Bach es el padre de la música, sus obras sublimes llegan al alma, 🎼🎶❤

Gorgeous!

sir speedy you clazy go snort some downers....

Bravo, I have been a big fan of Zelenka's sacred works, but this is the first time I listen to this missa. Is it usual to conduct while handling a violin? I was afraid lest he crushes it.

I slogged through this just because it was Zelenka, but it's a muddy amateur recording, and you can't really tell whether the singers are any good or not. If you want Zelenka (and you should), stick with Vaclav Luks. However, you might check out the Benedictus (ca. 40:00) for its orchestration---true Zelenka.

Are they playing without a condution?

Thank you for these wonderful posts. Bellisimo: "Morte col fiero aspetto" 16:12

Thank you for these wonderful posts. Bellisimo: 17:00
