If this example is anything to go by, this ensemble should record all the concertante arias & instrumental Werken of the great Johann Christian Bach over the next 4 years or so -talk about finding buried treasure ! I’m absolutely speechless (in a very very good way!)
Thank you for bringing J.C. Bach to light! He is a very under-appreciated composer and there need to be more recordings. This arrangement of this composer is my favorite, seriously!
0:30 Queste selve già d'amore Risuonare io feci un giorno; Ma sol'odo l'Eco intorno Il mio affanno replicar. Eco amabil', e pietosa Il mio duol, le mie querele Deh tu porta alla crudele, Che mi lascia sospirar.
These woods, with love, I made resound, once upon a time; But I only hear the Echo around me Respond to my distress. Pleasant, merciful Echo My pain, my complaints May you bring to the cruel one Who leaves me to sigh.
Bravo
JC Bach is criminally underrated. His mastery of Classical melodic structure and instrumentation is second only to F. Haydn and Mozart, IMHO.

Please make more Johann Christian Bach recordings! He is my favorite!

Always love JC.
Splendid
Bravo! More Johann Christian Bach!
Beautiful and uplifting ... thank you
Bravissimi!
Magnifica !
Fantastisch! Danke für diese Entdeckung. Ob Mozart die Arie gekannt hat? Tolle Sängerin, an the wind instruments...such a harmony.....perfect
As you probably know, Mozart (age 8) met him in London, saw at least some of his scores, and admired him.
Very beautiful. Thanks!

Queste selve già d'amore
Risuonare io feci un giorno;
Ma sol'odo l'Eco intorno
Il mio affanno replicar.
Eco amabil', e pietosa
Il mio duol, le mie querele
Deh tu porta alla crudele,
Che mi lascia sospirar.
These woods, with love,
I made resound, once upon a time;
But I only hear the Echo around me
Respond to my distress.
Pleasant, merciful Echo
My pain, my complaints
May you bring to the cruel one
Who leaves me to sigh.
Schön gespielt, aber die Maskierung ist eine orwellsche Verfremdung!
Pandemic...
いくら古典派が好きでも「女声ソプラノ」はダメだわ。これの「男声テノール版」ってないの。ホント古典派クラシックって好きだけど
「女声ソプラノ」だけは我慢できないほどイヤ。その他の演奏はいいのにね。
Ruined by the sight of those ridiculous masks...
