Чудо какое! Обожаю Генделя.

[@bobzoeller2790]

This is one of Handel's finest - and that's really saying something! I agree this is a wonderful recording. Handel was truly one of the all-time greats!

Tranquility! I am in love with Semele... Thanks for sharing!

[@achantus1]

+Theron Rapoo Semele is one of Handels best works, and still it is one of his most unknown

[@olatundekaitell2012]

Theron Rapoo yeah

[@gustavs9]

One of the highest achievements of human mind

gustavo stradella Handel was quite the super star....and continues to be so even today in the field of this endeavor. So great was his esteem after he had passed, Beethoven said he would serve his head to him because Handel's mastery was so great..High praise indeed. His skill in composing for the voice and the various emotional tambors required for characterization, puts him in the company of Monteverdi, Mozart, Verdi, and few others.

Gosh, I got a little flushed just reading the movement names, thanks! Great way to spend a rainy night in Georgia!

[@MrYorickJenkins]

Thanks for uploading this superb perfomance

[@shnimmuc]

A true masterpiece, largely unknown.

[@peterhager5858]

thanks for puting up the whole thing with time stamps - great job!

[@divox9pqr]

Hearing this superb rendering of Semele, I can't help but recall the production in which I sang at the Washington Opera. My dear friend Melvin Earl Brown, Counter Tenor sang the role of Athamos. Sadly, he is no longer around. I recall the Semele sung by Elizabeth Knighten as quite memorable. Nicholas McGhegen controlled from the pit.

[@ncdejager]

Sounds like a wonderful production - happy memory

[@bojo0o]

Handel is the greatest composer of all time !! Inspiration to so many others , like Mozart and Beethoven

[@johannsebastianbach5223]

Second only to me.

[@ednimed8034]

@@johannsebastianbach5223 , this is (and was) not a competition;-) At least you liked Handel's music since you played it and apparently collected some of his music...

[@spiritualneutralist2597]

Yes I totally agree, Bach is my favorite composer but most people need to realize there is more genius music out there than just Bach, Mozart and Beethoven.

[@brochanteur8253]

le génie ne se commente pas.remerciement aux artistes.

[@kmungerma]

Another masterpiece by Handel. Saw this a few years ago at the Zurich opera and just missed a performance here in Boston

[@craigbloomfield8546]

Lovely work with a few good soloists.

[@nimrodJohn2009]

In love with a god. It's all going to end in tears! Terrific recording.

[@altoarchives]

+nimrodJohn2009 A piece of trivia, this recording is mentioned in the PD James novel "The Private Patient"...

[@tenorschofield]

Wonderful!!!

[@juttastepanik5480]

Just beautiful!

[@scoobidoo9112]

I enjoyed this very much! I will listen to the recording with Kathleen Battle and compare.

[@ednimed8034]

QUE HACE LA PUBLICIDAD EN UN SITIO COMO ESTE? ES REALMENTE INCÓMODO, CADA 5 MINUTOS UN PUTO ANUNCIO QUE NADIE QUIERE VER, NO TODO VALE...
