It's just not possible not to be moved to tears by this...the soprano and the flutist are not of this world, to say nothing of Handel himself...what a towering genius he was!!!
I agree, I performed in the chorus of this oratorio when I was Grad school-it was a highlight of my life so far, and an undergraduate in the chorus dismissed Handel’s compositions as being too literal and obvious. I just laughed to myself, what a simpleton. Unworthy of the slightest response. ❤
Absolutely wonderful. The pairing of flautist Emi Ferguson and Amanda Forsythe it perfect. Handel wrote such beautiful music and it would be difficult to better this performance from two very talented artistes.
These ladies are wonderful and the ensemble has the most wonderful cohesion of any group I’ve ever seen and heard. They are so in tuned to each other. It’s like they are one
The flautist is what called my attention. I couldn't believe my ears the beautiful combination, The singer I know sheis exceptional and has one of the best techniques in voice control I've ever heard.. The last thing is Handel. On my book he is at the very top. I don't know where he extracts these beautiful melodies. Amazing!
What a mastery of lightness Beauty And Grace. Perfect equilibrium Perfect articulations perfect affects. I love samantha's sound clarity And purity so perfectly and sweetly balanced with The traverse flute. You Can really envision two beatiful nightinghales singing together in perfect love. Thank you blisfful team of musicians Thank you master Handel.
@@VoicesofMusic An absolutely perfect and inspiring performance. As a sound engineer, I would have liked some instruments to be mixed a little more audibly.
@Ralf Oswald We try to match the sound as it is heard in the front row. Although most recordings "balance" the sound, they don't reflect what the listener hears but rather a sort of idealized balance. An analogy would be if you put magnifying glasses in front of a painting--this is very useful, but usually done as a seperate detail so one can view the original unaltered.
So right! Near the end when Ms. Forsythe looks at Ms. Ferguson I simply cannot hold back my tears for the beauty of the music and the visual of them looking at each other!
Handel is one of my favourite composers, but not for the usual reasons. I love his counterpoint and phraseology as well as his progressions. I also love the ways his use of musical idioms. One can get very deep into the study of his music and always find new and delightful things. Even in his borrowings from other composers he brings something different to the music. When it comes to interpreting Handel, VoM gets it. They really have a handle on Handel if you will forgive the pun.
@@davehshs651 Seriously? Someone,who sings Olympia ( Les contes d' Hoffmann),without sharing a drop of sweat,should not be able to sing this???? Her only challenge would be,that she is not a native English speaker.Regarding to Händel,that's clearly Julia Lezhnevas domain.
Ich schäme mich nicht meiner Tränen... Unglaublich! Ob Händel jemals eine solch fabelhafte und ausbalancierte Version in Wirklichkeit hören durfte? Amanda Forsythe und Emi Ferguson sind in jeder Nuance so intonations- und dynamiksicher, dass mir die Worte dafür fehlen. Dazu ein Ensemble in allerhöchster Vollendung. Grandios! Herzlichsten Dank!
I have listened to this daily for the last month. It is comforting to hear such perfection in an increasingly imperfect world. Emi Ferguson is wonderful and Amanda Forsythe is superb as always. I am sure that Mr Handel would be most pleased that all the musicians have presented his genius with such clarity and beauty. Thank you.
Thank God I'm not the only one who is compelled to listen and watch this performance at least once a day! In these upside down times it is a solace indeed!
I simply can't imagine it being done any better than this (and I've listened to Dame Nellie onwards). Wonderful soprano. excellent ensemble and the flautist is in a class of her own. (I'm just going to give it another play).
Absolutely amazing! I have seen Forsythe several times in concert over the past ten years and she continues to outdo herself. This performance is perfection itself! The flautist pairs with her magnificently.
No suitable superlative adjectives left! Hanneke and David, you are the ones who organise details and collate the logistics necessary to meld these people into the skillful and respected group it is that brings the finished product we like so much.
For which excellence the recording engineers play a great part, almost always receiving no recognition apart from their name mixed up with the small print.
It's great to hear Emi again on the baroque flute; she has an exquisite taste in her interpretations! I'd love to hear her rendition of the "Dance of the Blessed Spirits" from Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice. Amanda Forsythe is superb too - she has a warm delicate voice, and manages to get in more than a few trills too - very rare these days among singers; something which must be stupendously difficult to do (I am no singer, but I can only imagine)!

@@dan78789 Don't forget that he was of German origin, and that his name actually must be written as "Händel", which in English can be written also as "Haendel".
@@dan78789 Yes, of course, he was nationalized English and his best music was composed in London, but in German spelling, "Handel" you can also write "Haendel". But if you write "Handel", without the umlaut or "deeresis" in the "a", it will be because we do not have the symbol on the keyboard by hand, for laziness (it costs nothing to put then an "e") or because we write the surname in English.
@@dan78789 Dear sir, my language is not English, and I have no need to learn it, I speak other languages,. If you write Haëndel, Handel or Haendel, no matter what matters is the wonderful music that this great man left us. Best regards Sir.
tomàs sánchez You are absolutely right that this music transcends any minor spelling issues. To clarify: the German spelling is obviously the original. However, after Handel (sic) moved to England in 1712, both the umlaut and German pronunciation were dropped and the name was anglicised (Georg also became George). You can see how Handel spelled and signed his name for most of his life if you Google the last page of the manuscript of Messiah, or indeed any other document. Another example is the Italian composer Giovanni Battista Lulli who moved to France aged about 20 and became a French subject about ten years later; he similarly changed his name to Jean-Baptiste Lully; like Handel, he is almost never referred to by his original name and to do so would be very odd.

I saw this music being played then with everyone wearing the costumes of the day and superimposed exactly upon that vision were these musicians. Time united into one moment for me.
