@@samuellabrecque880 'Like this'! Wow, you are confident that you are going to produce masterpieces! Well, if you do, we shall be profoundly grateful! But remember, the very greatest are invariably the most humble.

There is something that just gets me in the first few notes. This magnificent vibrato and the way he just grabs that high E with such force yet it sounds like his last breath. This interpretation is truly special.
Torino Barocca. 23 gennaio 2022 . Questa stupenda voce su note di elevatissima purezza infonde serenità alla mia mente. Uno dei grandi capolavori regalatici da chi ci ha preceduti. 🌹🎼🌹
Thank you *kowtow*. Thank you for this score (it's very interesting for me to read this text) and for this audio. Every time I listen this aria I smile through my tears. This music, this voice are imbue with such sadness and tenderness, sun and rain, grief and happiness....... It is amazing.... Thanks Philippe. Thanks civileso
heard Jaroussky sing this live with Dyer and the Brandenburg Orchestra last night in Sydney - it was one of those moments of absolute perfection in music performance that leaves you awestruck
D'habitude, je n'aime pas sa voix , ni ses interprétations, mais là, je suis bouleversé. L'orchestre est sublime , et P.J est tout en retenue, intériorité, profondeur, et simplicité...une merveilleuse ligne de chant... Quel régal !❤❤❤❤❤
Exactement l'inverse ....J'écouterais P J pendant de heures , mais pas ici . Même si il reste au dessus de la mélée . Ecoutez Simone Kermes qui est sublime dans ce rôle .
Thanks for posting serval different versions of this, I found the comparison quite interesting. I think I like this one the best, but they all have their good points.
Comment peut-il se trouver des personnes pour cliquer sur "je n'aime pas ce contenu"? Qu'on m'explique! Si l'on n'aime pas la musique classique, ou la musique vocale, on n'écoute pas Jaroussky chantant Porpora! On va sur les vidéos de rock, ou de jazz, ou de rap! Dans le cas contraire, on ne peut qu'aimer, et admirer, et remercier pour cette magnifique prestation!
As I mentioned in the video description, it is a live performance, an encore from a recital in Australia (see description for more details). It was recorded from a radio broadcast and never officially released in any of his albums or DVDs.
Porpora's "Alto Giove" is one of the most beautiful opera arias ever written! Here is also a recording from our performance with Predrag Djoković: ruclips.net/video/Md64hn79iWM/видео.html we hope you will like it!
yeah, jaroussky is a countertenor with a soprano like quality to his sound. for instance he has quite a solid low range (not afraid of low Bs in falsetto) and rarely goes into head voice unlike very mezzo like countertenors like cencic. but he also doesn't go higher than a high A, and rarely over a high G which differentiate him from a sopranist. sorry if i'm rambling :)
what i mean by head voice is the emission you would use to make the notes you are doing now as a countertenor, if you were a tenor. in otherwords, for a tenor , a high G to C would be the top of his range while for you as a coutertenor it would be your middle range. your low C would be the medium range of a tenor. that would be your speaking voice, so to speak.
@OperaCurtainCalls Yes, I had seen that video. It was posted some time after my comment. I even remember searching a lot on YT to find a version by anyone... but could only find that amateur video. Then, like two weeks later, I saw Hallenberg's version recommended to me on my homepage. As you can see, I said "so far", not forever in my comment. Unlike Erikk91 here, I am not against anyone singing this, male or female. Heck, even I sing it. So why not PhJ or Hallenberg?
@Erikk91 As for me, I don't want to read such stupid comments any more ! This aria is supposed to be sung by Polifemo, who was not a woman, and composed by Porpora for a male singer.
this aria was written by the singing teacher of Farinelli one of the most celebrated castrate of all time and sung by him, so saying this is a woman's song is just stupid because it was written for a man
We might consider if the song was written for a female "character" onstage. Females were not allowed onstage much, so it could have been for a female character. I don't know the background of the opera, or the aria, so I could be mistaken.
What's the difference between what Jaroussky's singing in (falsetto presumably?) and head voice in your opinion? I'm an alto (countertenor) and I've never found myself able to sing in more than one 'voice' in that range!
Creo que QUEEN se habrá inspirado al principio ,en algunos acordes,no les parece?,,,bien por este JAROUSSKY a igual que MERCURY ..Es una opinión muy personal.
Well, no, I don't think I'd expect that from any countertenor really... Although having said that I've heard the British countertenor Nicholas Clapton in a recital and rehearsing in his room (from across a courtyard!) and he has a very powerful voice. I suppose it's not much of an issue for me, because I'm not a huge opera lover.
Oh, I see now, by head voice you mean (what I would call) light or blended chest voice. Incidentally, I'm a tenorish countertenor, so like most gentle lyrical tenors (and unlike Jaroussky and Cencic) don't spend too much time in the heights! The tenor high C is a comparatively 'high' note for me.
Yes, Daniels' is a wonderful voice, although I often have issues with the way he uses it, certain off-putting mannerisms that he is, and ways of distorting vowels at the top and bottom of his range. I think you're wrong to suggest that Daniels can achieve greater depths of expression than other singers just because his voice has a richer colour and he uses it more dramatically, though. I think that Alfred Deller, for example, was highly expressive, using only the simplest means.
Alfred Deller´s Italian pronunciation was not something to boast about either. However, following the Italian phonetic PJ makes diction errors yes, but if you listen with the heart and not just for technicalities these minor slips are insignificant. Mannerisms are based personal taste and choices. If one analyses the solfeggi Porpora wrote for his students to improve their technique, style and abilities were all personalised. There are treatises from that time but I do not remember if there are any from the Neapolitan School. Difficult to say exactly how it sounded they improvised at the time in Naples as we have no surviving recordings. he he However, there are some arias remaining written for Farinelli with the variations written into the score e.g. by Farinelli´s brother Carlo. They can be found in Franz Haböck´s book Die Kastraten und ihre Gesangskunst. But, again, these were written for Farinelli and for his abilities.
Bruttissimo timbro, voce aspra, nel panorama dei controtenori di oggi non regge il confront:, vedi un Cencic, un Fagioli un Mineccia un Tim Mead o altri che hanno un timbro molto più pastoso e bello. Quella di Jaroussky è proprio una brutta voce di controtenore.
Magnifique ! J 'essaie de chanter avec Philippe cet air plutôt difficile
Wow. Truly beautiful. It touched me in the feelings department.
I don't know why people in the modern day don't compose pieces like this. This is incredible
+ Lyle Sargent is the paradise

I love to sing this piece after i finish it i feel so calm and relaxed its a wonderful piece of music
Yes but soooo hard to sing ! How many years does it usually take to be able to master it ? ( if ever we do )
Thank you for providing the Score, and also for the exquisite orchestral restraint and velvety sound!
Amoooooooo essa voz!
Bellísima interpretación Voz galardón y magistrales músicos ! .. se puede imaginar a Pórpora componiéndola .
One of the most BRILLIANT RUclips postings EVER!!! Thank you civileso!! Sei un Bravo!!!

Magica opera Alto Júpiter te lleva a otro mundo 😍
Where's my life's fresh air and water?
.....Oh there he is!
Me neither ! Philippe Jaroussky, the best medicine .
Go away Xanax ,Doliprane ,Deroxate
heard Jaroussky sing this live with Dyer and the Brandenburg Orchestra last night in Sydney - it was one of those moments of absolute perfection in music performance that leaves you awestruck
It is incredibly beautiful! Made me cry! Many memories for me. Thank you so much!

@@herveduval777 totalement d'accord....
Simone Kermes est dans le sublime, c'est absolument magnifique !!!!
Pure Heaven
Superlativo Jaroussky
This is, I think, the best performance of Jaroussky's Alto Giove. He was close Giove!
just gorgeous !!!so beautiful and sensitive . thnx 4 posting
love it
How amazing!!..
Stunning.
Marvellous !
PORPORA:ALTO GIOVE - E FANTASTIC.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! + JAROUSSKY E FANTASTIC - BRAVISSIMO.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

La voz de phillipe es adictiva
Obrigado Sr. Jaroussky! Muito lindo, espero que minha versão seja ao menos a metade em qualidade.
Exquisito
Undoubtedly! :)
This aria was coposed for the Male soprano castrato Farinelli!
very right!
Hermoso

@jommelli
You can find it at Farinelli's soundtrack disc
It would be interesting to have also the text and his traduction. I think this king of piece is more compréhensive When we know the text. Thanks

It's surprising what a wrong impression you can get from recordings then. I would have thought that Scholl had a pretty strong, resonant voice.
@zentinela1716 While that track is on the disc, I don't believe Jaroussky is the performer.
Creo que QUEEN se habrá inspirado al principio ,en algunos acordes,no les parece?,,,bien por este JAROUSSKY a igual que MERCURY ..Es una opinión muy personal.
Jaroussky and Scholl are the best.D.Daniels sounds sometimes like an old lady:)

In Hungary: Hülye -e vagy . fültelen.
El joven dimash..no podrá cantar jamas como JAROUSSKY y tampoco como el mas grande del siglo XX..MERCURY., es mi opinion.
@inchesa1 cow get in your farm
thats really impressive....what an artist....too bad he has no trills at all :(
Arno Raunig is far from being better than Jaroussky!Very far:)Jaroussky and Scholl are probable the best counter tenors in the world.
