      kedem berger I can guarantee that the harmony is mistaken in some sections; as if this organist was improvising. Totally sloppy and inappropriate. Unforgivable as an accompaniment for such a beautiful voice

      Sung with great confidence. Technically true to Handel; spiritually moving; and perfectly ornamented, in all the right places, and without intruding the self-displaying fireworks that can so disappointingly mar the reverently awesome mood of this piece. Overall a very satisfying experience, both artistically and spiritually. Somehow the traditional "BRAVOS " seem inadequate, but words all we have. I hope to hear you sing it again when you've perfected your baritone range!!

      I go to a regular school which has special classes for classical music talents, where we get a lot of extra music classes, both individual lessons and in groups. It is called Music@Majorstuen and it is just great! I suppose I sing for a couple of hours every day, but this could be either singing lessons, choir rehearsals, opera rehearsals, performances or practise at home.

    • @AkselRykkvin
      @AkselRykkvin  9 лет назад +4

      SAKI777LEWISJAPAN Thank you! I can produce some sound at the high F required for the Queen of the Night, but the highest note I regularly use is high C (Alleluia by Mozart, Miserere mei by Allegri).

Aksel did the soprano in the quartet part in Nidaros Cathedral on Long Friday earlier this year, but unfortunately we don´t have a recording that we can put out on RUclips. Maybe next time. In the meantime, enjoy the Alleluia version that I just uploaded :) He struggled with the high C at that time, though.

      If I hadn't been so much into doing opera roles, I probably would have had more time to albums. Also, if I did albums with treble and organ, it would have been easier to do more. In the end, I am very happy with those two I did with orchestras.

      Forgive your fans for crying "More, more, more". I do understand that you have been working for a long-term career as an adult and that was obviously the sensible way to go. It would, however be so sad if your years as a treble were to fade away into the mist of time which has been the fate of so many talented young men. Thank goodness we now have RUclips etc for a while at least.
