Whenever I feel depressed, this always lifts me to a better place. It's as if God is saying to me that everything will be ok
These unknown people should know that they've made many other unknown people deeply happy. I'm profoundly moved by this simple, pure performance.
Not famous musicians, perhaps, just the best in the art. Not business.
Unknown? Grace Davidson is a distinguished professional, probably the premiere baroque soprano in the world today. She has released a couple of cds and was the featured soloist in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit movies.
@@AndreaRKentOne year later... YES, & arguably the most beautifully pure of all soprano voices. LOVE this lady & all her work!❤
Grace is respected in the braoque world like the queen she is!
I was listening to as many "Eternal Source of Light Divine" performances as I could find on YT. This one BLEW MY MIND! The best of all of them! I'm enraptured. Grace Davidson's glorious voice is beyond stunning. With the unusual accompaniment (instead of baroque trumpet) of the phenomenal Christian Forshaw's saxophone this is a once in a lifetime gem of a performance. WOW.
I personally prefer the "old" trumpet, but completely agree on the voice. It's out of this world.
Totalmente de acuerdo contigo, Armonía perfecta, que maravillosa obra maestra.
Whenever I play this video on our big TV my husband insists that this sound cannot possibly be produced by a human being…. Pity me, as I have to live with him!!
This is the most beautiful saxophone and vocal performance I have ever heard. Can't say I have ever heard Handel played on a soprano sax, and with such finesse and sensitivity. I have only just discovered Grace's voice from the Byrd 1588 recording, and what I find for my soul this has been.
Música e interpretación inefables. Te reconcilian con este mundo ruidoso, lleno de malicia. Es te acerca al Misterio, a la Esperanza y a la Paz. Gracias por subir el vídeo
What a beautiful and pure voice Grace has. Heavenly!
grace's voice is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard. it brings me to tears every single time i hear it. she has a piece of the divine in her. thank you, grace, for sharing your gift with the world.
The Romans use to say Nomen Omen, in one's name is one's destiny, more or less. I find it is accurate in Grace's case, don't you think?
The soprano voice always blends with the soprano sax, beautiful performance by the best.
There are many majestic interpretations of this work, but this is the greatest, because it is the most lyrical and appealing, even spiritual. Psalm 68: 4 "Sing unto God, sing praises to his name." It perfectly demonstrates the power of simplicity, so appreciated by Mozart and Beethoven in Händel.
How doesn't this have 10 billion views?
Yes its beyond touching. Her voice is enchanting
the world is into trashy music
The world has become dumb
Without a doubt the most beautiful recording of this piece. Grace has the most angelic and hypnotic voice.
The best rendition available, by far. In a class of its own.
Yeah wow.
Such a beautiful voice!
Nevera heart a nicer version
An absolutely stunning version of this beautiful piece. Such a wonderful soprano voice,matched perfectly by the soprano sax. Sublime!
Herrlich, eine wunderschöne Kombination eine so weiche Sopranstimme und ein unaufdringliches Sopransax kombiniert mit dem vollen weichen Klang der Orgel. Perfekt!! 😍😇👼 und der Komponist ein Genie 🙏❤
At last, a pure tone soprano in the vein of Ms Kirkby, this arrangement is inspired, and inspiring!
I actually think she’s better than Emma Kirkby, who does occasionally have a tendency to harshly squawk, unfortunately.
@@videomillsy Exactly... and I submit that it was more frequent than occasional. I never understood her cult following.
I can listen to this over and over and it seems as if the angels are communicating with me
A lovely softer sound to this magnificent piece by Handel.
Just discovered Grace Davidson on BBC radio 3, what a beautiful pure voice perfectly suited for baroque music.
Wunderschön! Leider kann man nur einmal ein like geben sonst hätte es schon vielfache von mir bekommen 😍🧘♀️
I first heard Grace recently whilst listening to Sleep by Max Richter.
As soon as I heard this voice I instantly thought of what someone who had a near death experience described. He spoke of being in some kind of higher realm, whilst there, a group of beings where amongst him. One of them begins to sing. It was described as the most beautiful, amazing sound
, like nothing he had heard before.
I tried to imagine that sound for myself and this is the nearest I imagine I can get.
Absolutely stunning.
Deeply moving, indeed a rare glimpse of paradise.
The beauty of this ethereal voice enhances every composition she turns her attention to whether 21st century music or 300 years earlier.
Brava Grace!
I was weeping by 1:36 and continue to cry long after the video finished. Beautiful
As a pretty large lad of 53 yo I deeply stunned my 3 kids because they didn't hear what I was listening in my earphones, but they definitely heard my mighty sobs and moans ))
I Just crying ....thinking at many Angels....😢😢😢😢
WOW the voice just blew me away. Impecable technique
Heaven. Just like Heaven.
Just ethereal.
Exquisite soprano and soprano saxophone, together in pitch and timbre. Really, the sax seems to be more like a baroque voice than any other instrument. Thank you both for a transporting experience.
I am back, now I found this again. Itg is perfection
spinetingly beautiful and reduced me to tears.
So very beautiful. I have hairs on neck standing up, the combination of voice and instrument is inspired, how can music like this have been ans and sung by mere mortals
Rivetingly beautiful, deeply spiritual, and wonderfully soaring and uplifting. A superb musical interpretation and presentation. Bravissima, madame!!
Just beyond perfect. Astonishing.
Such a lovely voice! The two go together beautifully! The best I’ve heard!
I'm speechless... absolutely wonderful!
Unbelievably beautiful. Thank you
Some where....there's a sad soul....who just got.....mended
Wonderful. I'm in love with this performance.
Her singing voice Ìs out of this world
Her beautiful voice Ìs a paramount gift to Handel lovers
I have never, ever liked the saxophone. As a folk/classical vocalist I have never heard it played in a way I enjoyed. But hearing Christian play, and coupled with Grace’s voice has changed my opinion forever. I never knew how divine the saxophone could be. Not only was this beautiful in its own right, I think it is one of the best if the the best rendition of this piece-I think I even like it better than the original.
We are delighted and extremely touched!
You are so welcome. I could go on and on about how well executed this performance is…I look forward to discovering more of your work-and if you ever decide to to an arrangement of Loreena McKennitt’s “Dark Night of the soul”, let me know. I think the coupling of voice to the saxophone in that song would be sublime.
I miss you my love......i know that you don't love me but i love you so much and that's enough for me.....for ever...♾♥️
Sublime. Grace indeed. I love her voice.
Eternal source of light divine!
With double warmth thy beams display, and with distinguish’d glory shine,
to add a lustre to this day.
¡Fuente eterna de luz divina!
Con doble calor muestra tus rayos, y brilla con gloria distinta,
para añadir fulgor a este día.
Voice from heaven ..Grace is on another level .❤
Grace's sublime singing sounds like a welcome into heaven! :-)
So stelle Ich mir den Himmel vor.. ❤
simply marvellous!
This is so incredibly beautiful !! What a beautiful voice and the music and The organ, everything is Devine ! Gives me goosebumps
Very very beautiful. Beautifully sung and played.
excellent - most pleasurable performance
je suis tombé par hasard sur cette interprétation (du fait de la dérive automatique de You Tube); ce qui m'a contraint à arrêter ce que je faisais pour l'écouter; j'ai eu la même aventure, lorsque je suivais distraitement l'édition spéciale télévisée qui couvrait la chute du mur de Berlin, à l'instant ou Rostropovich s'est mis à jouer une suite de Bach au violoncelle devant le mur en ruine..
Beautiful!
Une voix sublime !
Fantastic, bravo!
Amazing
Magnificent!
Beautifu! Bravo! Bravo!
In the church of Carmo - former Se of Rio de Janeiro - this song (Eternal) has already played in the mass, during the week.
Thanks
I'm going to like 👍🇧🇷✨
Stunning. Both of you. Many thanks.
Truly, the best performance I have ever heard! 😀 Such simplicity, humbleness, and highly advanced musical performance made this recording a living ambassador of what Händel thought of while composing (something a lot of modern-day performances lack)!
Beautiful. Simply beautiful.
this is one of the most soothing pieces sung by one of the most soothing voices
I am going to let someone or her to sing or to play this for my wedding. I WOULD DIE
What the actual F....? This is SUBLIME. THANK YOU. Tears pouring down my cheeks as I listen to this. (Rev Gav)
Beautiful pure and simple
C'est vraiment magnifiquement beau.Elle a une voix.....divine .
Really beautiful performance. The best! So pure and wonderfully balanced.
Glorious!
Incredibly beautiful music performed impeccably
What a wonderful instrumental transcription. It works very well, and is beautifully sung, by all concerned.
Stunning!
Stunning! Absolutely stunning!
Best rendition ever.. Modulations and the pitch are presented at its excellence!
With Sopranosaxophone! Outstanding! Never heard. Playing this with Piccolotrumpet. But, great Respekt and perfect playing. Think today Händel will write also in this Combination.
Very well done, Grace! Thank you for sharing. Christian: I've heard this beautiful piece before with solo trumpet (original scoring). This was lovely with the saxpohone.
The more silky tonality of the alto sax is an inspired idea!!
A wondrous unity of sonorous sound !
Majestuosa interpretación.
Gracias por compartir.
Saludos desde Cuautitlán Izcalli Estado de México, México.
There is an angel in her mouth and another angel in his sax... just perfect
Und ein Chor der Engel in der Orgel! 😇
Absolutely!!!@@hansb.4012
Magnifique voix et très beau duo avec ce saxophone💝
Sounds like an angel. Marvellous 🌅
I’m so enjoy to listen with this 💐
..so beautiful !!!!
This voice is superb for this so beautiful Handel piece! The clarinet is so complimentary with it. Such a wonderful whole!
That's a saxophone...
So beautiful, so ethereal
Ça fait énormément plaisir d'écouter cette musique si belle et si céleste.Une grande volupté pour les oreilles et l'esprit.
That is on par with Kathleen Battle and Wynton Marsalis, simply divine.
Meraviglia🙏💐
flawless
Sublime!!
Beautiful
Hoe mooi prachtig samenspel van menselijke stem en instrument. Heerlijke muziek ,wat een meerwaarde in dit leven. Proficiat!
Magnifique! 💖😃
WOW, this was an absolutely beautiful version of "Eternal Source of Light Divine", it might even be the best version I have heard besides the 13 year old Aksel Rykkvin version. I want to hear more, so I have just subscribed. Soprano and Saxophone are a match made in heaven ! Thank you both !!!
Astonishing 😍
Absolutely beautiful

Sim e como se os anjos falassem conosco, para não nos importar com a crueldade q há no mundo ,as palavras dolorosas,q machucam nosso coração profundamente ,e só as lágrimas podem limpar nosso interior..Mas continuo escutar e chego a conclusão que há o ceu
Que bellísima voz la de Grace, me parece tan pura y de otro mundo que por momentos me parece oír a un niño soprano. Bravoooooo.
This is certainly one of the better performances I've heard of this piece - very commendable👍😀
what a beautiful voice...
