[@aragon7369]

"1:02 !" & "3:49 !" - My very soul is completely captivated and mesmerized, at how easily and perfectly her vocal range, colorature and technique allow her to ever so elegantly nail this stunning and effortless upward movement from 'E4', arriving with the styled emphasis on 'D5', powerfully yet gently and graciously resting on the note. It's truly a God-mode to my ear and soul - there's divinity in her absolutely delicate yet powerful, stunning signature voice few if any possess for the piece and the period repertoire. And I'm a Mary Bevan admirer for the like qualities in her arsenal !.. ((

[@michaelmiller1215]

A stunning coloratura with an amazing control of those difficult ornamented passages! And the Concert Master is a hottie!

[@DrGarri]

I live in Germany, which was one of the most important centers and place of employment for musicians during the Baroque, not to mention others, of course, but I must say that for a long time American musicians are the ones that have brought baroque music, especially singing, to new hights, no more boring Emma Kirkbyes or James Bowmanses, thank you for bringing baroque music back to the place it deserves and taking it out of the coffin of boredom!

[@Smannellites]

The Baroque music of Handel is very different from that of, say, the Renaissance music of Palestrina and Monteverdi from about a century earlier. The singing styles, likewise, are very different. There is a very clear distinction between the two eras, both have their virtues, but I can very much understand your preference for the later Baroque style that this performance exemplifies. I agree with you about American performers but I think it is unfair to include Emma Kirkby and James Bowman in your comparison - it is like a musical 'Apples and Oranges' comparison.

[@dgionescu]

Just perfect! Thank you for everything! Hope to see you, all of you, in Europe. Great orchestra, great director, great voice!!! Thank you all, once again!

[@complamin]

This is an exceptional piece in the history of music: composer, orchestra, conductor and sopran singer all in all in perfect performance. Overwhelming. ❤❤❤

[@colombinostilita4060]

Great performance both by the singer and the ensemble, one of the most stunning I've see and heard these last years. All of them seem really enjoying doing that and this is immediately perceivable by the audience. I have to add that Mrs. Forsythe has a flawless italian pronunciation (I'm Italian). My new favorite musicians.
