pannonia77 thats cool
Merci!
I do wish this channel would give credit to the artist. This is beautiful. Come on name the performers.
i think it sounds like the recording by the choir of kings college, with Stephen Cleobury leading the Academic of ancient music, in the album of Handel: Coronation Anthems. I cannot be a hundred percent sure but the timbre and vibrato of the counter tenor, and the basso continuo sounds like that album. i guess the channel didn't name the performer because of copy right. (there is a topic channel of the choir of kings college, but this album is removed) .
Great recording and one of the best compositions by Händel. So original, elegant, festive and suitable for royal events.
This piece is glorious from beginning to end. I really like how Handel treated the refrain as it comes back after each number. The lyrics are pretty ludicrous when you pay attention to them (typical 18th century hyperbole)
Mit Tränen in meinen Augen schreibe ich! Perfekt………..genieße ich ALLES! Vielen Dank.
At last - a full-length version of this. And how splendid it is.
A lyrical trumpet only Handel could conjure something so sublime
Incredibly beautiful! This music connect with heaven.
10:57: Incredibly passionate, exhilarating and profoundly moving simultaneously.
The true Maestro!!!!!
"He is the Master of us all." (Joseph Haydn) When Ludwig v. Beethoven was asked who is the greatest composer in his opinion, he immediately wrote down: "Händel". So, you are right: G.F. Handel IS The true Maestro!😍
Absolute perfection--both composer and performers. And Michael George is the ultimate Georgian era Bass.
Obviously, Händel understood Gospel of John chapter one, verses 1-9, and knew Eternal Source of Light Divine.
This Birthday Ode is a setting of a poem by Ambrose Phillips, and "Eternal source of light divine, with double warmth thy beams display, and with distinguished glory shine to add a luster to this day," is a direct address to the sun (not God), directing it to shine more brightly because it's the queen's birthday.
@@1tbo It's both - ie, the Sun AND the Sun's eternal source, God. Hence the words: 'light divine'.
Exactly... the Divine Right of Kings.
This is Robin Blaze with the Academy of Ancient Music conducted by Stephen Cleobury.
Robin Blaze's bright, open voice shines!
17:50 So lovely. Absolutely magnificent.
Esej Snake same
Such beautiful music,touches me every time,Bye for now love Alan,Well done Handel a Genius
THE BEST MOST ETHEREAL INTRODUCTION I HAVE EVER HEARD PERFORMED For This Piece !!!....
Couldn't agree more; à pleurer de beauté !
Trumpet 👍
We know historically Queen Ann was an extremely competent monarch taking on the House of Lords and defeating the French ushering in the period of British dominance. Very sad that the recent film had not much in common with fact and used Sarah's scandalous accusations and gossip after she was cast off from court .
Me encanta esta obra!
Divine 🌹
I love this recording. I had only heard the piece with soprano. I really like it with tenor/counter tenor ❤. We know that often the voices were interchangeable at the time as to who was available.
The very best voice for this is a not very recent recording by a chap called Dieter Knochte....these versions here appear a little slow........?
23:47 - 23:51 I thought I was in Hallelujah chorus. I so wanted to sing, "For the Lord God omnipotent..." Were these works quoting one another, or is this a musical coincidence? Or...is it just me? ♪♪♫
Same composer, probably recycling a leitmotif or two here and there.
mm It has no resemblance to the Hallelujah chorus, only the instrumentation with trumpets resembles it.
I think the artists might be Alison Balsom and eistyn Davies for trumpet and countertenor but the recording dynamics are much different as is the space so it's hard to tell.
I should have looked down further where they list the performers as the academy of ancient music.
Alison can't play like that: she hasn't got the soul for it. Look her version up on RUclips if you don't believe me.
Is it a great stormy secret, who is playing & singing?

@Russian Bias RUclips uses automatic music recognition to identify the music and ban those recordings where the copyright holder did not allow the use of the copyrighted material. (Most labels allow this, only the uploader does not get anything from the advertisements. Notable exceptions who do not allow the use of their material are Hyperion, CPO.) Shazam identified it (the same kind of technology to identify recordings RUclips also uses) as Stephen Cleobury's recording. This was issued by EMI Classics, that's why it is not banned.
@@pannonia77 However, the recordings are very often misidentified and apparently revenue is still being collected.
Really? Im sorry but this cant be the same humans that sing nowdays 🙄
Ok that first aria made me cry it was so beautiful.
US Int Lic and Nominated Artist Legolassie; much appreciated from Master Handel is; first the small ,pearl of Medieval Diskant interval; second the Canon on "United Nations Shall Combine" by the Tutti: obliging; referring even to the Venetian Renaissance principle of "Chori Spezzati"; not so "Spezzati" anylonger: but still clearly reminiscent: God Save The Queen! and Dir Stephen Cleobury Quod confer The Academy of Ancient Music
Wonderful!
The tenor voice is usually a soprano
If you are talking about the alto (which is sung by a male alto in this recording), that's the voice Handel specifically wrote for.
"Mr. Eilfurt (Alto - Tenore)" in the original score
Alison Balsom on fanfare trumpet (longer trumpet)
No it isn't Alison. And it's called a baroque, or natural, trumpet.
Alison Balsom trumpet
Again, no.
