Chance and Bowman. No question. I was at Oxford with Bowman when he was in the New College Chapel Choir. We knew we were listening to something startlingly new, and the way forward for the voice. But my generation was brought up on the version by Alfred and Mark Deller, so let’s remember them gratefully too, as the real pioneers.
Dumaux and Scholl - two really thrilling voices! ❤
Scholl and Dumaux I prefer, but all are fantastic!
Chance & Bowman win to me. Followed by *stunning* Scholl & Dumaux (intriguing voice Dumaux's, probably because I never heard him in duo with Scholl's nectar-voice) and the very good Djian/Guillon.
Nectar-voice is a good way of describing Scholl. My first exposure to the counter-tenor voice and I fell in love, hearing ":the raggle-taggle gypsies" on the radio (where he also sings the baritone part).
Without a doubt, CHANCE AND BOWMAN. Been listening to so many versions over the years and this is by far the most professional.
Scholl and Dumeaux achieved the best technical and musical quality, but I liked the artistic version of Chance and Bowman. So sad the third one doesn't have a video. Dumeaux's play is always amazing!
Dumaux and Scholl
Bowman and Chance coming in second
I was expecting to like Scholl the best but I also like Chance & Bowman, So lively!
Dumaux and Scholl
Dumaux/Scholl
Chance y Bowman son un referente, hace muchos años conocí la voz de contratenor por ellos, me puede la nostalgia. Pero los demás cantantes son sobresalientes, han depurado el timbre y expresividad de su cuerda de manera impecable, como Scholl y Dumaux.
Dumeaux and Scholl
Dumaux and Scholl are the best❤️
Of these sets? Chance and Bowman, hands down. Dumaux sounds like he has a cold.
Dumaux Scholl
Try Andrew Leslie Cooper's version - it's stunning.
Bowmann pour l'archive mais Scholl pour le timbre et cette rondeur sublime
Thank you for your channel of life! This is my to go to while I drink my coffee in the morning!
Oh Janice, you are a sweetheart! Your channel is my go during my lunch break, after work, or anytime I want to unwind with my own cup of coffee ☕️ 😋
@@baroqueandbeyond you are very kind. Thank you so much.
Lástima que no aparezca Iestyn Davies.
Michael Chance and James Bowman.🙏😇
Chance and Bowman. Of course, they have the advantage of being natural English speakers.
James and Michael zijn de beste
Chance and Bowman😊
Christophe Dumaux/Andreas Scholl
Chance and Bowman.
Chance&Bowman
Chance and Bowman. No one else comes near.
Le duo BOWMAN et CHANCE est le meilleur , ces deux voix de contre ténor se marrient parfaitement sans artifice et très harmonieusement ce qui n'est pas le cas de toutes les versions présentées. Pour moi , cette version peut-être considérée comme historique
et je l'écoute régulièrement.
dumaux und scholl
Chance/Bowman
Alison Balsom + Iestyn Davies
keine Frage:Scholl mit Dumaux. Die Stimmen von Chance und Bowman passen überhaupt nicht zusammen,wäre interessant, wie beide mit anderen Partnern klingen würden.

Well, so far it's unanimous! Chance and Bowman. I believe in general that the best performances are by musicians of the same nationality as the composer. They just tend to understand the language and culture. I fell in love with Purcell as a kid listening to Alfred Dellar, so for me Alfred and Mark Dellar would be a contender as well. th-cam.com/video/x4Txjhj4P9A/w-d-xo.html
Definitely Chance and Bowman. The others probably don't know what they are singing about. The pair of Scholl and Dumaux is a complete misunderstanding. I don't know who put them together, because these two voices don't even sound together at all. I can't stand performances in which the most important element is that the voice sounds at full volume - there is no music in it, just shouting over who sounds better. Music is not only about showing the singer's ego, there must be space for the color of the voice, colour of the language and, in the case of this piece, lightness and joy. Colleagues, famous countertenors - singing is not only your voice - a little humility and respect for the listener's ear would be useful. Even looking at the faces of Guillon and Bénos-Djian, the appearance of their faces alone discourages me from listening any further.
Considering the above. Oh yeah...definitely Chance and Bowman.
