This is an amazing performance of Dixit Dominus. It has the clarity, drama and elegance that should make Handel smile. And it's such a delight to discover the conductor Emmanuelle Haim. She's a huge treasure. I'm so thrilled for her.
Who would think that Handel created a work so mature in every respect in his early 20ies. Another thing is that youth is bold and reckless, to technically it's quite challenging for the performers :)
how young! Have you heard Opera Proibita ? with Bartoli ? And read the cover notes ? He was a beast at 20, destroyed Corelli, who was probably the best violinist/orchestra leader in Europe at the time. I think he wasted his time in England, once he made it made it big. A sort of Baroque Liszt.
6:41 God, Handel is the father of us all. If the orchestra members are reading this, i love you all. I am Israeli and am saddened at the current events. I grew up with baroque music! 6:00
I enjoy so much the conductor of this master piece of Handel. She is one of the rare female conductors you will ever see in a professional performance of this magnitude. I equally enjoy the vigour of the choir and orchestra. Thirdly performing the Dixit Dominus anthems seemingly in their original keys is a plus to the choir and orchestra. Kudos!
Absolutely fabulous singing. I've always considered this one of Handel's finest compositions. At every level it excels. Its emotional intensity and creative invention never ceases to amaze. I have a recording of the" Sixteen" performing this thrilling work and although extremely competent and imaginatively sung, is not even close to this performance. Emmanuelle Haim is an amazing musician. She simply transforms the score and gives it an energy and emotional intensity other conductors simply fail to achieve. Glorious.
I. Dixit Dominus - 0:05 II. Virgam virtutis tuae - 5:40 III. Tecum principium - 8:42 IV. Juravit Dominus - 11:44 V. Tu es sacerdos in aeternum - 14:00 VI. Dominus a dextris tuis - 15:46 VII. Judicabit in nationibus - 18:48 VIII. De torrente in via bibet - 23:00 IX. Gloria Patri et Filio - 26:46
Un dynamisme contrôlée qui touche la perfection ! les respirations et les phrasés sont parfaits . Une direction sobre efficace et des solistes excellents. Bravo.
Les finales se sont pas toujours ensemble, le choeur est tendu au début, la justesse de certains débuts de phrases est à retravailler, l'orchestre ne va pas au bout des dynamiques souvent... mais où voyez-vous la perfection ?
When we listen to music such as this, seems to have the ability to make us transcend to certain levels hard to explain ; even if is only for a little while.!
Exceptional interpretation, perhaps the best that I heard until the moment.The voices and the orchestration are amazing. The maestro’s feeling when transmitting his instructions and sentiment are also relevant for this glorious music.Gloria to the author of this masterpiece. Viva Handel!!,
Magnifique du pur bonheur ! Bravo à Emanuelle Haïm et à tous les interprètes. Je connaissais déjà bien l,'opus, mais j'ai rarement écouté unr version aussi brillante
Belle cheffe de choeur mais choeur et orchestre qui ont encore à progresser (soutien, dynamique, détente....) Merci pour le travail et le plaisir quand même.
Astounding recording! Vocalists exhibit technical perfection and musical skill, and the orchestra is just heavenly. Have performed this many times as a singer so I can attest to the technical difficulty. This performance is simply remarkable.
You should be HAYDN from shame that you actually said that! I'll be BACH later with more editorial commentary and opinion. I have a LIZST of items I'd like to clear up with you. I hope you can HANDEL it then!
Comme vous, je suis totalement impressionné par la beauté de la voix d'Emöke Barath, son phrasé mélodieux, un ange ! et puis, les solistes et le choeur sont magnifique tout comme l'orchestre. Hommage à Emmanuelle Haïm. J'avais précédemment peu apprécié le tempo. Je reviens un peu sur cette appréciation.
Bravo, bravísimo ¡¡ Radiantes voces, energía plena, dirección igualmente vibrante. Me uno a felicitaciones de quienes están o han escuchado y mis parabienes.
No sé dónde estará Handel, pero que esta maravilla así de bien interpretada se escucha en el Cielo no me cabe ninguna duda. Enormes el coro, orquesta y dirección. La apoteosis final en 32:13 me hace bailar en el asiento como la espectadora de la primera fila, laus Deo!
The most beautiful and touching performance that I already have heard. The singers are magnificent and everything under the powerful direction of the dirigentin. Marvelous !
The most supernal music in history. It's shocking it seems to be so little known. Thank you for uploading this magnificent work. I've run across descriptions of the work of the later Handel as "bloated." This makes me laugh with the recognition of valid insight. Despite its undeniable greatness, "Messiah" has never stirred me as "Dixit Dominus" does. This glorious treat imparts a grace and majesty to the day which I'd be unlikely to experience otherwise.
Bob Taylor God bless you Bob. This does the same for me as well. I can’t conceive how Haendel could conceive this music. He was inspired by God. His music inspires us as well.
@@joephilly138 , I've taken to giving out CDs of Dixit Dominus to elderly people who are dying, and imagine I'll be doing it for the rest of my life. It's hard to imagine that a human mind, however gifted, conceived this, but so it was, and he was a mere 21 years old. A lot of people think it's so fulsome that it has a certain "mad" quality to it. That may be so, but it was a great madness he had, wasn't it?
And thank you for your kind words, sir. I deleted my original comment because I thought it was a little too self revealing, but I want you to know how I appreciated what you said.
@@bobtaylor170 You are helping others. I don't think you are self-serving in the least. Anything done to promote or share this music is a service to your fellow humans. This is just one of those things in this life that makes me say, "Surely God is and surely God loves us all." It also reminds me to stop trying to put God or my human brothers and sisters in a box. Bob, your heart and mind are in the right place and I hope you are rewarded richly for being so unselfish and caring for others.
Really excellent: full of energy and drive and considerable precision, all the brio of the young Handel. The fear that the tempo in the Gloria instilled did its work! :-)
Excellente interprétation. Direction nette, précise et dynamique et les 16 choristes ont tous de très belles voix ! les solistes excellents ! Un tempo rapide et nécessaire qui relève l'oeuvre. Bravo !
Escuchando a Bach y a los maestros del barroco se llena de alegria mi corazon. Al escuchar esta lindas voces y otras mas, creo q es verdad q los angeles tambien estan en la tierra
L'Hai cantato? Se si.. che fortuna, se no.. te lo auguro.. io ho fatto soltanto un coronation anthem e, naturalmente, 2/3 messiah (col grande CBM ed altri)
I really enjoyed everything I heard with this Ensemble. Their quality is high; the choir is very beautiful and the Orchester too. This work is beautiful and I did not know it so I have no references. Maybe in the end I would have chosen a slightly slower tempo in order to give more majesty but I generally like the rather fast tempi so it doesn't become boring ... for me ... Haimi is an orchestra conductor who uses the body a lot to direct. .it is quite typical in her. However, everything is always very precise .... a beautiful moment
El genio se encarnó en Handel, Vivaldi y Bach, muy singularmente, y la música se posó para siempre en el pecho de Damien Guillon! Benditos sean los artistas que llegan a nuestra alma y la tocan con su magia!
What a musical force to be reckoned with. The chorus, orchestra and soloists are so energetic and vibrant. I have seen and heard Emoke Barath in Mozart's Mass in C minor from Sao Paulo, Brazil in a performance conducted by Nathalie Stutzmann. Bravo!
Thank you for giving this glorious work the REAL hifi treatment that it demands. Makes a huge difference, especially if you're listening through high-end headphones (the best way to enjoy YT music vids).
I'm a Bach geek normally but "De torrente in via bibet" is probably the best piece I have ever heard. It is such a touching duet and choir combo. So painful with the dissonances and all. Even a smaller tempo would be better imo.
Félicitations... la Direction de Mme HAÏM est toujours aussi "spéciale", efficace, originale, dynamique et belle. Les Chœurs sont à la hauteur de son exigence. BRAVO. Je n'aime pas le choix des Solistes jugés trop académiques et lourds pour ce genre d'oeuvre, particulièrement M. le Contre-Ténor. Pardonnez-moi Monsieur. C'est juste une histoire de répertoire pour votre voix.
Im an agnostic and yet I can't get enough of this beautiful music
Que la Grâce de Notre Seigneur descende dans votre cœur 🙏🕊️
God is not only looking at believers :)
Как же приятно смотреть на этого дирижёра, очень экспрессивная.
She's one of the few women really surprises the world like a great conductor .
This is an amazing performance of Dixit Dominus. It has the clarity, drama and elegance that should make Handel smile. And it's such a delight to discover the conductor Emmanuelle Haim. She's a huge treasure. I'm so thrilled for her.
instaBlaster.
She is great and this one of the best performances and one I return to always.
Certainly at a more brisk tempo than the choir I sang with, could ever manage. What a great piece, fabulously performed!
Who would think that Handel created a work so mature in every respect in his early 20ies. Another thing is that youth is bold and reckless, to technically it's quite challenging for the performers :)
how young! Have you heard Opera Proibita ? with Bartoli ? And read the cover notes ? He was a beast at 20, destroyed Corelli, who was probably the best violinist/orchestra leader in Europe at the time. I think he wasted his time in England, once he made it made it big. A sort of Baroque Liszt.
And then comes Bach and Händel suddently seems easy 😅
@@Alexander9er maybe, maybe not but Handel's music is always better
The Bass Singer Solo at 16:51 is so cool, his head movement moving along with the music is so cool😁
6:41 God, Handel is the father of us all. If the orchestra members are reading this, i love you all.
I am Israeli and am saddened at the current events.
I grew up with baroque music! 6:00
thank you RUclips, you are my saviors during the virus times .i am very grateful to you all
It was a hoax, as now proved!

Glorious.
My sentiments exactly!
I've always considered this piece one of the worst to sing all-time. And I've sung a lot.
John Elliot Gardiner?
Le " d'i torrente",par la beauté de son interprétation, nous arrache les larmes des yeux!
I cannot get enough of Emmanuelle Haïm.
Yes
Crisp and vibrant. A performance thoroughly understanding Handel's intentions.
Une tres belle interprétration de l orchestre et du choeur magnifiquement dirigé de main de femme,superbe, merci pour la beauté...

Cher Ben yaacov : quelle magnifique circumsession d'amour entre le Pere et le Fils!
Toda raba, haver!
Thankyou kind Sir
Handel: Are you happy? God: Yes.
Handel is truly a God, his use of counterpoint is amazing
@Yael Berg no
It's as if they have been singing this all their life! Such apparent ease and naturalness!
shame theyhave to use the music - can't stand singers who hold a barrage in front of their faces
@@helloxyz Too many people involved. You can't miss a step.
Un dynamisme contrôlée qui touche la perfection ! les respirations et les phrasés sont parfaits . Une direction sobre efficace et des solistes excellents. Bravo.
yes ! ! totaly agree with all you say
No for me isn't equilibrium between choir sound,to hight and orchestra Of course in Itali we haven't this beautifoul executions
Je suis d'accord du côté du Choeur, de la Direction toujours aussi dynamique et belle à voir, mais je n'aime pas la lourdeur des solistes. Désolée
Les finales se sont pas toujours ensemble, le choeur est tendu au début, la justesse de certains débuts de phrases est à retravailler, l'orchestre ne va pas au bout des dynamiques souvent... mais où voyez-vous la perfection ?
Écoutez la version de l ensemble orlando dirigé par Laurent Gendre là c’est la perfection
The german genius. All his italian operas are exceptional.
Brava Emmanuele
When we listen to music such as this, seems to have the ability to make us transcend to certain levels hard to explain ; even if is only for a little while.!
Cette musique est divine. Ces niveaux restent en nous sans que nous nous en rendions compte. Il suffit de se laisser emporter.
Vibrational frequency.

Favolosa esecuzione. Handel immortale
Magnifique du pur bonheur !
Bravo à Emanuelle Haïm et à tous les interprètes. Je connaissais déjà bien l,'opus, mais j'ai rarement écouté unr version aussi brillante
Bravi! Tutti bravi! A masterful performance of a genial masterpiece! Viva Handel!
Belle cheffe de choeur mais choeur et orchestre qui ont encore à progresser (soutien, dynamique, détente....) Merci pour le travail et le plaisir quand même.
Vous êtes qui pour écrire cela ?...
Astounding recording! Vocalists exhibit technical perfection and musical skill, and the orchestra is just heavenly. Have performed this many times as a singer so I can attest to the technical difficulty. This performance is simply remarkable.
Grossbartig.... and to see a German orchestra reclaim their genius son GFH in this recital.
Lo dijo el Señor : nos ama y debemos amar al prójimo en especial a los pobres y necesitados. Gracias por la música.
Emoke Barath and Lea Desandre together on the same stage. Marvellous. The guys are wonderful too.
Handel's powerful master piece.
Yes
Nothing comes close to period instruments, shivers down my spine everytime i listen to Handel and Bach.
This is a really muscular and musical rendition of of a great work form a 21 year old genius.
wow.....excellent, perfect work......definitely, Handel is one of the giants in classical music.
Ottimo il tempo scelto da Emmanuel Haim: rende la partitura più briosa e pimpante!
Comfort of Handel‘s music is immeasurable and beyond words
An underrated gem of a performance. I shall be returning to this one in the future.
This is what perfection sounds like
Love the way she makes sound cellos and counterbasses
i cant handel how good this is
Lol I chuckled
You should be HAYDN from shame that you actually said that!
I'll be BACH later with more editorial commentary and opinion. I have a LIZST of items I'd like to clear up with you. I hope you can HANDEL it then!
Lay your byrden down, and just relish it.
i know your thinking i agree that, sometimes it is tóo much to …..?
Handel decodes the celestial message and the Angels voices in such lightness it rapture the soul & takes it where it belong ...Merci!
This is awesome! Emoke Barath sounds incredible in her soprano solos and the whole thing has so much amazing energy :)
Comme vous, je suis totalement impressionné par la beauté de la voix d'Emöke Barath, son phrasé mélodieux, un ange ! et puis, les solistes et le choeur sont magnifique tout comme l'orchestre.

Tantos profesionales de la belleza.Y el genio de Handell
Cammera man: let's point to someone who's doing nothing but standing there while one of the solo singers is singing...
Cameraman answering to a twit on Twitter perhaps...
More the job of the director.
😂😂😂

Ok, I think the same, but Messiah's "the trumpet shall sound" can be perfectly part of the Dixit Dominus Handel's masterpiece.

Esta es una obra de Handel, no del aburrido Bach. Handel es el mayor compositor de musica vocal y coral de todos los tiempos.
A job very well done, Emanuelle, orchestra, choir and soli. Sublime Haendel in a very well balanced, precise and touching performance. More please...
Ascoltarlo è un piacere, cantarlo un privilegio. Complimenti: ottima interpretazione.

Sounds pretty splendid on "low end" ones too. Don't think Handel specified in his score. (high or low end hearing trumpets!)
such beautiful music ,thanks

This is A 440 indeed!
Excelentísima música , que brinda paz y armonía en este tiempo de cambios negativos.

Um dia espero que o que é bom, de fato, como essa peça, seja a regra absoluta.
Herzlichen Dank!! Wunderschön!!

Awesome counter tenor. Such a pure and refined sound.
Yup, Guillon is for me the best in France, and one of the best in the world.
Esta mujer es increible🥰
Thank you for the great pleasure!

Ok and? How are those other performances relevant for this video?
Such a polished performance!!!
Gracias mil por compartir.
