Magnificent!
Bravo!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
BRAVO
Grazie mille!
Joel this rocks!!
Thank you my friend! 💚
#1 I love this aria #2 You sang the SHIT out of it #3 I fell out of my chair 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 BRAVO JOEL
GANSON!!!!! 💚💚💚💚
When you search for a song to send for a student, and see one in your search by an old singer friend. This is wonderful. I loved how you staged it as your opening!!
Ah I’m so glad you found this! Always good to hear from you my friend 💚
👏👏👏
Can I buy this piece?
Yes, there is a link to purchase a PDF of the music in the video description
Incredible!
Beautiful, Joel
Bravo!!
Beautifully done. Finding it done in the baritone range is hard (that's what I did in college). Have you ever looked at Watchful's Song from Pilgrim's Progress by Ralph Vaugh Williams? I noticed a similar sort of mood, especially at the beginning and end. Again, very well done.
Bravo my friend 👏
Bellissimo, Gioiello!!!
Glorious ❤️
sei un baritono unico! bravo!
Very beautiful and rare to have such as fine singer AND pianist. Bravo.
Many thanks Keith! I so appreciate your support. I'm toying with the idea of doing the entire cycle self-accompanied....we will see!
@@joelbalzun That would be great. I'm a tenor and have worked on the cycle in the original key; nice to hear it sung in the lower key as well!
That was absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for uploading!
That is so kind Michael - thank you! <3 I've been dreaming of doing the complete cycle self-accompanied...we'll see if I can do it...!
Sooo....wanna know something funny? I know Rick Rowley. He was at UT, Austin when I was there. I've had a few lessons with him. He's fantastic. You guys would've had a laugh knowing me in common. See this video is like experiencing a memory I never had, but know the feeling through and through. And as always, awesome singing buddy! :)
Glorious voice!
Thank you so much!
I think you have a wonderful instrument and do very well with this Aria .I hear vibrato not wobble. I enjoyed your performance and intend to follow your career, You have a rich, dark, voice that is agile and flexible, I am a Fan!
Many thanks Joe!
Wow. Just stellar. Wow.
Thank you Dann (5 months later) <3
Guess this means I’m furloughed 😂 Seriously though, that was a slick page-turn! Bravo, as always. 👏🏼
Kevin I promise you are not furloughed! 😅
could drive a truck through that wobble
flicfan416 thanks for your feedback! ;)
I hear no wobble. It's a gorgeous voice full of vibrancy, shimmer, and color!
Pianist or not, you have some really nice moments of expression in your performance. :)
Although a few performances have been added on the internet since this one, this is still the best performance of this song. Bad acoustics, a little too much vibrato, but still the best interpretation. Especially the last Whoooo.
