    Every single word used in the Messiah oratorio is from the King James Bible. Written in English by G. F. Handel, it is one of the most wonderful pieces written in history.

  • @danawinsor1380
    @danawinsor1380 7 месяцев назад +1

    Handel's original tempo marking is "andante," and yet the tempo in this performance, which I would call "allegro moderato," seems ideal. It's hard to imagine it taken any slower. Bravo to Mr. Padmore, Mr. Davis, and the London Symphony!

    All KIDDING ASIDE....
    In 2013 I was deathly I'll and laid out in bed.
    My COMFORT
    was
    Praise and Worship
    Songs.
    One night while I was in dire pain,
    This came up on my TV.
    It lifted me up outta the PAIN and desperation.
    HOPE
    Sprung up.
    "You shall see your
    VALLEY EXALTED."
    I had never even paid attention to the lyrics!!
    This
    Popped up on my Screen.
    Even Now
    As I open up the HOLY BOOK:
    There it is
    ISAIAH 40:3-4,5b
    The voice of one crying in the wilderness,
    "Prepare ye the way of the LORD;
    Make Straight in the DESERT
    A Highway for our GOD.
    Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill brought low
    The Crooked places shall be made straight
    And the Rough places Smooth.
    The GLORY OF THE LORD SHALL BE REVEALED
    AND ALL Flesh shall see it together.
    FOR THE MOUTH OF THE LORD HAS SPOKEN."

    @ericnj28 It is tradition to perform oratorios and cantatas with the music, even if you do have it memorized. And I am positive that a tenor of Mr. Padmore's caliber has had this piece memorized for a number of years already.

  • @worthingSarah
    @worthingSarah 12 лет назад

    I agree he is terrific. As an English person, I was addressing the person who was criticising his accent and diction, suggesting he sings with a standard southern British accent, neither over nor under enunciating the vowel sounds.

  • @bigowl9408

  • @tnthepianoplayer

    also because this is likely the beginning of the entirety of Handel's Messiah which is close to 3 hours long so its good to have notes

  • @philiphope5355
    @philiphope5355 6 лет назад +1

    A beautiful performance by Mr. Padmore. Being a tenor soloist myself, I'm permitted to be a little critical. One of the most difficult passages from a breath control standpoint is from measure 34 through measure 41. A half note rest in the second beat of measure 34 permits a breath to be taken, sufficient to carry the phrase all the way to the first beat of measure 40, where it is customary to cut the quarter note to a half note in order to catch a breath to take the singer to the cutoff in measure 41. A very long phrase and very difficult to perform. Watching Mr, Padmores' performance, I am surprised to see him cut the second half note in measure 35 to catch a breath, and to shorten the dotted quarter note in measure 38 in order to take another breath. This then takes him to the first beat in measure 40 where he takes a breath as is customary, to finish the phrase.

  • @jisiri
    @jisiri 15 лет назад

    Bravo, just the right amount of ornamentation. I agree that some tenors over ornament this piece. Has anyone ever heard Kenneth Mckellar do this? Great.

  • @unkn0wn528
    @unkn0wn528 3 года назад +6

    So this song was played as an example of aria in my class, we were all laughing at it way too much. For some reason the teacher thought it would be a great idea to put it in our end of unit test, with exam conditions.
    I have never seen more people trying to hold in a laugh in their whole life.

  • @jimraw1
    @jimraw1 14 лет назад

    @Ledfloyd15 It's definitely a tenor solo - I have 3 different arrangements and it and "Comfort Ye" are both tenor solos. Now I have seen skilled baritones perform the solo if there are no strong tenors in a choir, or tenors that have trouble with the low end of the solo - remember that there is often little difference between second tenor and baritones.
