Love the setting…Bostridge’s voice with its incredibly fluid line, depth and darkness of timbre in the lower passages and shining steely warmth at the top, in such a wonderful acoustic….Bravissimi all!
I keep returning to this performance . I cant picture anyone else singing this area . Tenor Bostridge is amazing . He puts his soul in singing Vivaldi . Mille Grazie Ian . Sehr Gut . Danke . Spasibo .
beautiful vid. musicians today knock it out of the ballpark every time - astounding. elocution excellent! profundo fully expressive w/o heaviness. good & true color in a very monotoned number. delivery agile and strong. what more could one want? love the setting too! the relaxed atmosphere of elegance is sweet! a charmer, this one! a pleasure! btw, the natural tenor voice is becoming rather a rarity these days - the sound here is a nice refreshment!
You obviously have a wrong model of natural tenor voice. Bostridge has a voice for comprimario roles. His sound is miserable and technique is so far from ideal. This flat, thin, colourless sound without any volume and deepness and with some age fading is mistakenly associated with baroque tenor voices. Check out some historical literature and try to understand WHAT is authentic baroque tenor is. This is real profanation.

@OrganicOrganist thank you so much for your kind support! Agreed, it has nothing to do with green, other personal or non-objective feelings, it's only about real love for Opera and baroque music in particular and some theoretical base of course. It is very dissapointed when people try to associate such voices as Bostridge' with the ideal model for baroque singing and present it as a some ''tenor's benchmark''. Because of such wrong position we have so many bad tenors in baroque repertoire. It is a real joy that someone can HEAR the truth.
Like ice in every vein, I feel my blood flow, the shade of my lifeless son falls over me; I’m terrorized. And worse than that pain, I see that I was cruel to an innocent soul, to the heart of my heart.
Apparently this aria is not totally original to Vivaldi -many other Italian baroque composers used the basic framework of this tune in their compositions and Vivaldi did his own "take" on it -Gasparini was another Venetian composer who used the tune.
Не надо сравнивать. Это естественное, свободное для нашего слуха исполнение. Прекрасный эмоционально наполненный голос тенора. Слушайте больше разного и будет вам счастье. Не зацикливайтесь на знакомом и том, о ком все говорят. В России, к сожалению, мало кого знают из тех, кто исполняет подобный сложный репертуар.
I have always liked Ian's dabble in (italian) baroque music, especially the arie composed for Francesco Borosini and Annibale Pio Fabri in his 2010 "Three Baroque Tenors" CDs. It's a pleasure to finally listen to a (big name) Tenor sing this aria which was originally composed for the Tenor Pellegrino Tomii in Vivaldi's "Siroe" (unsure if the extant manuscript for Tenor was actually a version for Antonio Barbieri, he did have a lower voice than Tomii). Despite Ian's obvious romantic phrasings and "not too italian" singing style, I still enjoy his takes of baroque pieces. However, I find this one to be maybe too placid... Farnace/Cosroe is fearing for the life of his son here, but everything, including the orchestra, is just too... still... Where is the continuo 😂😂😂 ??? I'd add tons of ornament to depict the character's trembling ! The singing is smooth, pretty but it's as if they're merely reading through the piece... The best version that I've heard is actually sung by Xavier Sabata and directed by George Petrou, on Sabata's CD "Catharsis".

Bostridge has a particular 'yearning' timbre to his voice, which after a while becomes, at least for me, rather irksome. He is clearly an intelligent and sensitive singer with a love not only of the music but a need also to get to the heart of the poetry and express both with equal intensity. In this instance the instrumental playing is fabulous but the vocal interpretation very much a matter of personal taste.
@OrganicOrganist The essence of his career was always his imaginative re-interpretation of standard Lieder repertoire. It was never the voice, which now shows worsening of a problem he had withe the management of breath - the ends of phrases wobbling below the pitch. On the interpretative side he shows what has been true of so many singers as they age, the exaggeration of trademarks. They become parodies of themselves. I prefer to remember the several thought provoking recitals I heard him give at the height of his career.
I’m a Bostridge fan but this was… not good. He looks like he’s in pain singing this. I’m wondering how he chose this piece. The harpsichordist looks so bored.
cold in every vein of my lifeless son afflicts me with terror and to make my agony worse i see that i was cruelto an innocenr soul to my hearts beloved OF COURSE HE IS IN PAIN
most fitting since the song is about just that. I listen - because it is perfectly in keeping w/ both the meaning and music. that says much as the song is everything. long-time music appreciation listener. and I like the video too! this is HIGHLY SKILLFUL playing and singing! to have composed it - a miracle! to be able to play the piece so aptly - astounding! to actually sing this song as he does here - true to the subject and in keeping with all of the complex vocal demands so acutely and expressively described - is a WONDERFUL accomplishment! I am soothed and entranced in the anguish of this exquisite thing. YOWZER!!
Finally a harpsichord part I can play
😂😂😂
🤭🤭🤭
🤣🤦🏼♂️
LOL 😆
Moi aussi....
Love the setting…Bostridge’s voice with its incredibly fluid line, depth and darkness of timbre in the lower passages and shining steely warmth at the top, in such a wonderful acoustic….Bravissimi all!
This is pure art. In my favourites for as long as it stays on TH-cam

Very colorful voice, so beautiful and unique. ❤The best!
Complimenti Ian: una voce che incanta ed una interpretazione eccezionale!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! BRAVO!!!
Good to listen to this aria during this harsh winter season.
🕊🌟🕊
Oh Wow.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
🙏💜🙏
💜🎵💜
The greatness of Vivaldi is unparalleled
So lovely . Music that shakes me to my core ..
Absolutely fantastic . Bravo Ian !!! I cant describe how I feel listening to this voice . Molto Gracie .
Wow, beautiful performance, thanks for sharing!

So perfect!! Is amazing, just beautiful
Lindo, lindo, lindo! Saudações de Portugal 🇵🇹
Obrigada para eles, sou Francesa residente em Portugal e frequentadora deste tipo de música!
Beautiful
Molto, ma molto bello !
Beautiful.
Un pur bonheur ! Mille mercis!!
Ian's wonderful.
I love this interperation❤
I didn't know tenor's bass was so beautiful!
It's a dreamy beautiful song!!
Beautiful!
Splendido !!! Emozionante !
Very beautiful. A real contrast with the version done by Orfeo. There is so much to learn from these interpretations
Thanks for the suggestion for next listening!
Bravo bravo 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️
This is really great to listen to.
Amazing!
Estupendo 👌 Felicitaciones!
Bravo
Einfach faszinierend, wunderschön!!! 🥰❤️❤️
Que voy más bella y que hermosa composición!!!!!
Superbe !
This is breathtaking! I love every second; it’s captivating. I wish I had the translation.
Like ice in every vein,
I feel my blood flow,
the shade of my lifeless son
falls over me; I’m terrorized.
And worse than that pain,
I see that I was cruel
to an innocent soul,
to the heart of my heart.
Emotional lyrics
Bravi!
Это великолепно!!!! 😇😇😘
maravilloso!!!! Lo divino mucho más cerca.
I‘m addidcted
この歌手は世界一の歌手だと思います。この曲はよくナタリー・シュトゥッツマンで聴いておりましたが、最近はイアンを多く聴くようになりました。
この先も彼が衰えず歌っていることを祈っております。 日本語が私だけなのが寂しいと同時に恥ずかしい。日本人ももっとこの歌手を評価してほしい。
日本人です！
同じ気持ちです！！

He goes quite deep, despite his light tone quality!
This guy is a beast 👏
Curious vowel for the melismas at 2:07 and 3.37. Hooting on an an "ah". To the detriment of tuning.
Lol, the harpsichord guy could not care less! In other versions of this aria the harpsichordists really go to town with torrents of arpeggios!! :))
Cuánta belleza!
Вся музыка без исключения прекрасна! Более всего понравилось пение Филиппа Жарусски! Спасибо за предоставленное счастье!!!
Не надо сравнивать. Это естественное, свободное для нашего слуха исполнение. Прекрасный эмоционально наполненный голос тенора.
Слушайте больше разного и будет вам счастье. Не зацикливайтесь на знакомом и том, о ком все говорят.

This is horribly fascinating.

I appreciate this critique from a clearly informed auditor! As an uninitiated listener, I was able to really appreciate this interpretation.
Interpretacion exquisita y vanguardista¡¡¡ hermoso¡
Sikke en skøn musik.
Where was this recorded, please?
Gelido in ogni vena
Gelido in ogni vena

E per maggior mia pena
Vedo che fui crudele
A un anima innocente
Al cuore del mio cor
A un anima innocente
Al cuore del mio cor
Gelido in ogni Vena
Scorrer mi sento il sangue
L'ombra del figlio e sangue
L'ombra del figlio e sangue

I loved it! But I also loved "It's The Best Day Ever", by Spongebob Squarepants, so what do I know?
Sounds a bit like Alberich to me, but he is one dedicated artist, with great longevity to boot
This comes coming up on my feed...what did I do wrong?
My latest TH-cam OCV (obsessive-compulsive viewing...)
Does one of the greatest Lied interpreters of our time really has to do this?
美啊
His real voice show me the images of his words．
and people still listen to rap and stuff...
Rap and hip hop overwhelmed the world with uglyness, noisyness , cruelty and agresssion.
Надо же было такое написать

I don't know a lot about the vocalist but it's now down as one of my favourites. Such love put into this piece
Horrible string tone. No singer ever sang like that, and in the 18th century the singing tone was the 'ideal' for string and w/w instruments.
Paul Bates has become my most hatred video director. It's such a horrible piece of art it's almost great.
The word you are searching for is "hated" I am your "most hated video director".

What a very strange collection of vocal sounds. I wouldn’t exactly say they constituted singing.
@OrganicOrganist The essence of his career was always his imaginative re-interpretation of standard Lieder repertoire. It was never the voice, which now shows worsening of a problem he had withe the management of breath - the ends of phrases wobbling below the pitch. On the interpretative side he shows what has been true of so many singers as they age, the exaggeration of trademarks. They become parodies of themselves. I prefer to remember the several thought provoking recitals I heard him give at the height of his career.
See above
Which is a shame, considering young Bostridge was a rather fine vocalist. E.g. his Dies Natalis.
Allez vous habiller !
Enjoyed singing; orchestra seems rather withdrawn as if it’s a a first rehearsal
I've seen more life in a shoe.
😂
More life in a sandal
Don’t say that 😟
Polo shirts, stubble, a gurning tenor.
I’m a Bostridge fan but this was… not good. He looks like he’s in pain singing this. I’m wondering how he chose this piece. The harpsichordist looks so bored.
it is about pain. the musicians are very cool. only longhairs would understand.
cold in every vein of my lifeless son afflicts me with terror and to make my agony worse i see that i was cruelto an innocenr soul to my hearts beloved OF COURSE HE IS IN PAIN
Oh, for God sake! Horrid from the very first note! What on earth is going on with people's ears? È il suo canto che mi ingombra di terror!
It is agony to listen to this "singer". I do not understand the mystique. Utterly unlistenable.
most fitting since the song is about just that. I listen - because it is perfectly in keeping w/ both the meaning and music. that says much as the song is everything. long-time music appreciation listener. and I like the video too! this is HIGHLY SKILLFUL playing and singing! to have composed it - a miracle! to be able to play the piece so aptly - astounding! to actually sing this song as he does here - true to the subject and in keeping with all of the complex vocal demands so acutely and expressively described - is a WONDERFUL accomplishment!

Он в нотки не попадает, и что за окружение, в такой возвышенной обстановке они в шортах сидят совсем отупели, не знают цену классической музыки
Una vergogna
Mi sembra tanto ben suonata ma non altrettanto cantata.
Boring to death.
pitiful. thin tone, no legato line.he has only ever sung from the shoulders up
its not a number for the 'hale und hearty' don't you know?
is NOT in TUNE........sound like SCHOOL ORCHESTRA.....
Lindo, lindo, lindo! Saudações de Portugal 🇵🇹
Bravo
