For over forty years I have treasured this particular rendition of the duet "Suscepit Israel", part of Pergolesi's "Magnificat" (6:25 to 8:15 in the above). The performers are tenor Ian Partridge and bass Christopher Keyte, accompanied by the orchestra of St. Martin in the Fields led by Sir Neville Marriner. I have heard many other renditions of this duet, but none approaches the blend and sensitivity and richness and warmth and musicality of this one. The balance with the St. Martin in the Fields orchestra is absolutely perfect. The duet is a marvel of simple structure and harmony that meld to create something of real beauty, never more fully revealed than in this rendition.
They do a beautiful job. I'm currently rehearsing this and will be singing the bass in "Suscepit Israel" with a local choir. We are not likely to match this performance, but we'll do our best. I did not know this piece previously, and I'm very much looking forward to singing it.
And the problem is that the men who might be the author were all close associates, training each other, sharing spaces and musicians, and cross pollinating ideas.

The Best ever !
The question of authorship of this little gem has been long contested; whoever wrote it, it is just lovely!

Prachtige uitvoering! Alleen jammer dat de solisten zich op een operascène wanen.
Beautiful singing
Grandioso!!!!!🌿
Yo tuve la fortuna de interpretar está cantata en español, fue una hermosa experiencia y se la dedique a Dios.
Great Music
Beautiful; I sang this in high school many years ago. However, the key is B flat major, not C major.
Yes, it is true. Key is B flat major, but the original title of the piece says "in C major"...What else can we do?
@@sjli1484 Alter the title to include both keys? There is another Magnificat, in C minor... ;-)
I love it i sang it at the Georgia boy choir festival.
Magnificat by Francesco Durante, not Pergolesi.
This is not Pergolesi's, but Francesco Durante's Magnificat in B-flat major.
