Andreas Scholl and Bach is such a good combination. Andreas knows how to add very tasteful ornaments to the aria, and stays loyal to the composer. Never vanity, always the composer first. His voice has that noble warm instrumental tone, again that's Bach. So for me it is Andreas Scholl. Adding to this, Michael Chance sings the aria with an intense calmness and instrumental. Very beautiful.
Great to see that Yoshikazu Mera is featured on this and other recent videos on your channel. He’s a great countertenor and sadly underexposed. I’m not sure whether he performs or records much anymore. Well done for choosing him.
Only in Scholl's rendition you can clearly hear the lyrics... It is easier to follow it when you can look at it... Von den Stricken meiner Sünden From the bonds of my sins Mich zu entbinden, to set me free Wird mein Heil gebunden. my saviour is bound. Mich von allen Lasterbeulen From all infections of vice Völlig zu heilen, to heal me completely Läßt er sich verwunden. he gives himself to be wounded.
Didn't know Yoshizaku Mera at all but since wasn't taken by Scholl's version, listened to Mera like by curiosity. Was then taken to the point of searching more about him & hearing a purely beautiful Lascia ch'io pianga, so now I have another counter-tenor I may enjoy listening to. Liked also Michael Chance & found more about him & didn't also know him. Not new Scholl doesn't touch my sensibility, rare though. Very.
Mera is the solist countertenor "used" by Masaaki Suzuki in his Bach's cantatas recordings but each on other recordings. I adore him, in my opinion one of best 3 countertenors: Carlos Mena and Jakob J. Orlinski the others..Obviously out of the standings the legendary ones René Jacobs, Gérard Lesne and Dominique Visse!
Mr. Mera is 52 years old and only 4 years younger than Andreas Scholl. Andreas Scholl was actually the best countertenor in the world for Bach and Handel, but Mera is in a class of her own. Everything he did was absolutely brilliant and unrivaled, no matter what language or musical era he worked in.
Among these three Chances, clearly. I like Scholl more in the 1997 interpretation with Corboz, over time he has lost some precision in intonation, in my opinion. Among Herreweghe's interpretations, I prefer the one from 1987 with Catherine Patriasz.

Yoshikazu Mera - uniquely
Scholl without a doubt. His beautiful articulation and unique quality of his voice make the other counter-tenors sound like amateurs.

Andreas Scholl pour sa diction il est allemand cela aide et la clarté de sa voix. Bach c'est sa tasse de thé si je puis dire 😍

Von den Stricken meiner Sünden
From the bonds of my sins
Mich zu entbinden,
to set me free
Wird mein Heil gebunden.
my saviour is bound.
Mich von allen Lasterbeulen
From all infections of vice
Völlig zu heilen,
to heal me completely
Läßt er sich verwunden.
he gives himself to be wounded.
Yoshikazu Mera! He sang for Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke! 😊
All three sing this beautifully. Thank you for the treat.
Wonderful aria and three beautiful renditions. Difficult to choose one, and very happy to have the three!
All three do it amazing.. but if I have to aelect one I'll do with Michael Chance with that delicious soprano/mezzos voice ❤

Mera’s Lascia ch’io pianga is indescribably beautiful and I’m glad you got to enjoy it!
Обожаю всех контэноров.во всем мире.голоса Ангелов.благодарю❤
Scholl , Chance 🤗
Mera tiene una voz preciosa, quedo rendido sea lo que sea lo que interprete. Scholl está sobresaliente también, y Chance casi a su nivel.
Всі чудесні співаки. Андреас Шоль мені найбільш припав до серця. Не чула його раніше.
The fullness of Chance! Simply beautiful contralto-
I love Scholl , Chance is good too, the other one is a little bit young, but will surely do great things

Mera give me more meaning sing and music

Yoshikazu mera ❤

Chance ..
Him, honestly

Christian Immler, by far.
mr scholl is spending i am afraid.
Chance. Der viel gelobte Scholl transportiert für mich am wenigsten.
How about a good alto, countertenors suck.
Do you mean contralto?
@@baroqueandbeyond Yes contralto, Sara Mingardo, Nathalie Stutzmann…
I admire countertenors for the hard work they do. There are so many wonderful ones! I like seeing men in men’s roles, in particular.
Using juvenile language certainly heightens the seriousness and integrity of your view and drives home to pointless nature of your presence here.
@@enriquesanchez2001 I don’t need eloquence to feign loftiness. I’m a long time barocchista and I know what I like and androgyny is not it.
