Those moments when the orchestra goes silent and the singer starts to sing and it feels like sound of instruments gradually turns into the sound of voice - it's pure magic. Brilliant! What a hard work.
@@c.g.marseille4510 take rather the phrase I wrote, "core tone production". The performer's basic, general way of making a sound; the core, essence or centre of their sound. This singer doesn't seem to produce sound without vibrato - it is an integral (though doubtless chosen/trained thus) part of his way of generating a tone. I prefer singers and players whose core sound is "straight" and who only apply vibrato selectively and in varied ways.
This is beyond any doubt the most beautiful rendition of this aria I have ever heard. I'm truly speechless. And my god, the voice: what power, what musicality, what an inspiration! Bravissimo!
Power, sensitivity, stylistic and technical skills, operatic sense - perhaps the best Male Performance in the recording history? Bravi, Christopher and Voices of Music!!!
How such an influential and genius musician from the Baroque Era be so underrated and known today just for his Four Seasons, its beyong my capacity of understanding...
I think it's slowly changing--Vivaldi was an opera composer who is famous nowadays for his concertos. As more of his complex music is performed, we see the range of his skills.
@@VoicesofMusic Stravinsky went down in my estimation when I read his cheap gibe about Vivaldi having written the same concerto 500 times. Wrong, wrong, wrong!
Cecilia Bartolo gave us a rendition to amaze - Christopher has added his counter tenor voice to add a further leave us gasping for more - this version is truly mind blowing and voices of Music cap it off..
I love this piece x galore! I love how you can see how Mr. Lowrey feels what he is performing! I love this kind of performing art. I would love to see him sing in person.
You could almost "feel" the chill; what a genius Vivaldi was! Incredible execution from an incredible ensemble, as usual, @voices of music. Thank you 💐
So happy to find this... seeing Christopher Lowrey perform Farnace with Pinchgut Opera in Australia 2 year ago was a an aha moment, its the most captivating piece I've ever heard.
Truly virtuosic performance by Christopher Lowrey, not just in the music but in the acting as well. The guy really sells it. A Farinelli for our time? (I'm not kidding!)
First time watching a performance like this. I was absolutely mesmerized for the entire 11 minutes and three seconds. So beautiful. So much passion. Without a doubt the best thing I've stumbled upon on YT for a long, long while.
Потрясены до глубины души!!!Идеальное исполнение маэстро и оркестра!!!Высочайшее мастерство!Душа переживала необъяснимой глубины чувства!!!Надмирно!Божественно!Все одарены Господом!!!Благодарны и влюблены!
Absolutely amazing. You can feel every note. Thank you for all the uploads. I'm honored to even be able to listen let alone see these brilliant pieces come to life.
Brutal Lowrey, su voz llena cada recoveco de la partitura con un sentimiento genuino. Pone todo el registro de su voz al servicio de un empuje dramático notable.
You can tell he knows how to convey the emotion of the piece by the way the expressions in his face match the piece itself such a beautiful interpretation it’s something to behold Bravo!!!
Vivaldi, Purcell, and other composers of that generation knew what bitter cold was like (the winter of 1709 in Europe was colder than any one since and killed many). The period instruments and this countertenor are great at conveying that. "ingombra" is an interesting verb choice too. I don't even know if Italians still use that word.
Emotional truth, superlative musicianship, instinctive integration of singer and musicians - as a professional singer [mezzo] myself, I am grateful and inspired in equal measure by this perforance. Thank you
Amazing special effect / percussion on the harpsichord ! Very cool ! And Christopher Lowrey´s virtuosic singing is just breathtaking ! :D Thanks,VoM,you are the best.
That hard instrument tapping makes this particular song the best from all others. The vocalist and musicians are great and almost everyone commented positive but look for the enthusiastic musician here.
Thanks for this amazing release! The brilliant audio and high resolution video greatly enhances the experience of the music. I really like that you record in 4K.
Hi, listening this video with headphones and seeing the musicians is a great experience. I am a fan of Baroque Music , specially Vivaldi, Purcell, Bach, Nicholas Lanier and just discovered the performers of Voices of Music and Christopher Lowrey, I am going to stick around to follow and support their amazing work. Thanks very much. An amazing performance and recording.
Насколько великолепно исполнение и сопровождение, что мурашки "по коже". У Сесилии Бартоло , как мне показалось, слишком много драматизма и театральности. А сравните игру оркестров? Я, однозначно, за вариант, предложенный мr. Кристофером. Это чудесно, сильно и одновременно, нежно, без надрыва. Браво!
I heard Cecilia Bartoli but must say I am in awe listening to the beauty of Christopher Lowrey's performance and also love counter tenors. what an extraordinary musical experience!
I listen to classic rock and 70s easy listening, for the most part. I gotta tell you. This just blew me away. Not only his voice, but the music was so powerful. Thanks. :)
I am speechless. This should be shown in schools, I have a little hope in humanity restored with each of these videos.
Thank you.
Don't hold your breathe. 🌬️
Those moments when the orchestra goes silent and the singer starts to sing and it feels like sound of instruments gradually turns into the sound of voice - it's pure magic. Brilliant! What a hard work.
Thank you.
This performance changed my life in some way.
This is, by far, the best countertenor I've ever heard. Incredible.
agree !
Too much/overuse of vibrato in his core tone production, but a lovely voice, certainly.
@@Jemtheflute help ! what is '" core tone '' ?

@@Jemtheflute I thank you for your explanation . ( i am not English )
Haunting version of this aria - powerful, dramatic and yet introverted at times. Absolutely mesmerising
Christopher Lowrey's tone and technique as well as his intrinsic musicianship is of the very highest order.
This is beyond any doubt the most beautiful rendition of this aria I have ever heard. I'm truly speechless. And my god, the voice: what power, what musicality, what an inspiration! Bravissimo!
yes ! en dank-je-wel Dries Brouwers !
Thank you!
Yes!!!😍
the audio and video team are as talented as the musicians
awwwww thanks!
Absolutely the second stars of the show in addition to the beautiful venue.
The echo in the space when he goes forte ! Oh ! My ! God ! Permanent chills
It was electrifying on the stage; I'm glad the video captures some of that energy.
Power, sensitivity, stylistic and technical skills, operatic sense - perhaps the best Male Performance in the recording history? Bravi, Christopher and Voices of Music!!!
His voice control is insane. And yes the period instruments make a big difference.
That is the most pleasingly sounding version of Vivaldi! Mr. Lowrey sounds like an angel! ❤❤❤
I've heard this with modern instruments and always felt something was missing. Man do period instruments make a difference!
They do make a textural difference.
Only 18 century vocal chords missing and then we'll truly have a fabulous performance

Mr. Lowrey is a superb artist and vocalist, and I continue to find Voices of Music an equally superb ensemble.
Cecilia Bartolo gave us a rendition to amaze - Christopher has added his counter tenor voice to add a further leave us gasping for more - this version is truly mind blowing and voices of Music cap it off..
Oï Bartolo is a character in Rossini , Bartoli is the name haha
The musicality in this brought me immediately to tears, this is absolutely beautiful.
My goosebumps won't go away, please help.
:)
I love this piece x galore! I love how you can see how Mr. Lowrey feels what he is performing! I love this kind of performing art. I would love to see him sing in person.
La potenza espressiva e la bellezza che per sempre risuonerà intatta: solo Vivaldi!
These are all beautifully recorded. Props to the audio engineers.
Thank you.
You could almost "feel" the chill; what a genius Vivaldi was! Incredible execution from an incredible ensemble, as usual, @voices of music. Thank you 💐
Passion plus passion plus passion, absolutely mesmerising....
So happy to find this... seeing Christopher Lowrey perform Farnace with Pinchgut Opera in Australia 2 year ago was a an aha moment, its the most captivating piece I've ever heard.
Never before has an Aria been portrayed to be the very voice of Eden with such an ethereal orchestra. Tears are the only reaction.
With all his heart ! Bravo to Christopher and musicians ! .... and Vivaldi of course.

Yup with a score hahahahaha

As a commoner I found this beautiful, inspiring & it taught me something. Christopher has a crystal angelic voice.
YES! This and vedro con mio diletto from giustino are two of my favorites. What a masterpiece!
Veeeery Good. Period.
Vivaldi è un genio. Bellissimo brano superbamente interpretato. Grazie.
Brutal Lowrey, su voz llena cada recoveco de la partitura con un sentimiento genuino. Pone todo el registro de su voz al servicio de un empuje dramático notable.
Beyond brilliant!

Many thanks!
Oh yes, it's that percussive effect on the harpsichord and those long aching bass section that first made my ears perk up for this piece!
Those minor seconds send chills up the spine. First time of hearing this truly beautiful aria. Amazing.
That hard instrument tapping makes this particular song the best from all others. The vocalist and musicians are great and almost everyone commented positive but look for the enthusiastic musician here.
I found this channel a few days ago….the best on RUclips. Thank you. Your hard work is very much needed and appreciated.
