Handel Lascia chio pianga BEST VERSION EVER

[@michelescarcella9307]

If someone is interested, the theatre where this scene was filmed is the "Markgräfliches Opernhaus" in Bayreuth, Germany. This theatre is one of the most beautiful theatre in the world and is an "UNESCO World Heritage Site" . Built in 1748 in typical barock style by Italian architect Giuseppe Galli da Bib(b)iena. Richard Wagner actually came 1870ca. to Bayreuth so as to play his "Ring der Nibelungen" in the Markgräfliches Opernhaus, but soon he dismissed his ideas, being not happy with the size and the style of the theater. So he decided to build his own theater with a totally different style, size and orchestra pit. That will be the as well famous "Festspielhaus".

Ich habe das wunderschöne Lied von F. Händel erst durch diesen Film kennengelernt. Im ersten gemeinsamen Urlaub mit meinem Liebsten, als wir eine Kirche in Istrien besichtigt haben, habe ich begonnen, das Lied zu singen und er hat sich ans alte Harmonium gesetzt, das dort war und dazu gespielt. Seitdem ist es unser Lied. Nach neun wunderschönen Jahren ist mein Süßer nun sehr schwer krank und ich hoffe, dass ich die Kraft haben werde, bei seinem Begräbnis dieses unser Lied wieder selber für ihn zu singen ...

Except for the fact that it was digitally re-mastered. I do think that Dimash would be able to sing it this flawlessly today. Philippe Jaroussky came as close as possible naturally at the time so his concert performance remains my favorite. Unquestionably, the movie version was exquisite. 🎉 [I sang this to my beloved feline soulmate as he went to eternal sleep in my arms at the vet, paw firmly stuffed into my hand, on 2/10/14. He was 19 and adored this piece and it was this or Tony Bennett. (I'm a 1st Soprano). As always, it was softly into his ear and a belly kiss. He purred for the few seconds before slipping away. They assured me that they've had others sing to their critters before. 🙊💋🙏🏽]

The movie is gorgeous. I watched it when it came out in the cinema in the 90's. It is from a Belgian cineast: Gerard Corbiau. Although he has another splendid film: "Le Maitre De Musique" with José Van Dam( baritone), he is now retired I guess. Let's say... if they should make a movie like this nowadays...you don't have to be bothered with blending voices of a contratenor and a soprano...you've got the male sopranist Philippe Jaroussky!

[@claire0880]

[@2eleven48]

It is, of course, almost impossible to know what the castrati actually sounded like other than what we have of the recordings of Alessandro Moreschi, which would appear to be very different from the stunning mixed recording here by the soprano, Ewas Malas-Godlewska, and the counter-tenor, Derek Lee Ragin.

[@chriskershaw7968]

It probably did not even sound that good, considering what pieces sound like when played on authentic instruments and in authentic rhythm and style; people were more easily pleased in those times, before hd.

[@perticapertica]

Учитывая всевозможные физиологические аспекты, кастраты звучали либо как женщины, либо как тенора-альтино (которые тоже похожи голосами на женщин), либо что-то похожее на Робертино Лорети, но никак не на контртеноров. Просто их голоса были значительно мощнее, а техника отрабатывалась виртуознейшая. Но не стоит забывать об индивидуальной изменчивости. Даже среди одного типа голоса встречаются самые разные тембры, у кастратов они тоже все были разные. Кто-то пел неотличимо от женщин, кто-то более "мясисто" и мужественно, как альтино, кто-то легко, как ребёнок. Не вижу смысла думать, что окраска их тембров была принципиально не похожей на естественные голоса. Не понимаю, зачем они так мучились, соединяя два голоса - звучит как обыкновенное спинто. Хорошее, очень чистое, красивое, но обыкновенное.

[@lindabirkett8803]

@@chriskershaw7968 Pretty much everything sounds better when played on authentic instruments, and you are hearing what the composer intended. Instruments (and voices) changed as concert halls became larger, but that doesn't make them better. Baroque music played on modern instruments is a transcription.

[@lindabirkett8803]

Alessandro Moreschi was not equal to Farinelli or any of the other great singers of that period. Moreschi was the best castrato out of a pool of one, he wouldn't have received the same level of training and he wasn't good enough to sing opera. Farinelli was the best of the best at the peak of the popularity of castrato singers. Also, the recording of Moreschi is very poor quality, so it's difficult to determine what he actually sounded like - Listen to recordings of Caruso from around 1900 and compare to a modern recording of someone like Pavarotti. There has been quite a lot of research into the impacts on castrati. The research in the 18th century focused on physical impacts - Longer legs, broader chests, no faciai hair etc. More recent research shows that boys have the same length vocal chords as adult females. As boys go through puberty the vocal chords become longer and thicker, making the voice lower and less flexible. It seems reasonable to conclude that the castrati voice would be similar to the female soprano and just as flexible. Then you have to consider the additional chest/lung capacity, which would make the voice more pure, with less vibrato, and allow them to do all sorts of vocal tricks.

[@2eleven48]
