G. F. Handel Laudate pueri Dominum

[@ruthcisternas947]

This is young Handel (at age 22) at his very best. What an impression he must have made on the Cardinals, and his fellow musicians, with music like this when he arrived in Rome in 1707. This is an absolutely brilliant work, and it really comes to life in this fabulous performance. No other recorded version comes anywhere close to capturing the thrill of this great early Handel work. Kamila Zajickova is breathtaking - her voice perfect in tone and dynamics for the music. The choir and orchestra are world class and the conductor achieves a tempo throughout that - at times - makes your hairs stand on end. CONGRATULATIONS to all those involved, and grateful thanks for uploading such a heartwarming recording! Thank you so much.Two final thoughts: 1) Why, oh why do we seldom hear this music? 2) Please, please consider a CD release of this recording. I am certain Classic FM would receive it with open arms here in the UK.

Thanks for your note, too!

Ms.Zajickova's breath control is simply amazing. It puts me in mind of the legendary Teresa Stich-Randall.

Wonderful !!

[@hudsonbailey674]

They're gone! Either these geniuses of transcendentalism took their gifts with them to the better world or those talents lie wasted in the dredges of mediocrity. Decades before Internet these inspired composers and their performers lifted life to a higher plane. We await modernity to catch-up with antiquity. Keep the GEIST alive!

lovely

Please, World, I've traveled but never ascended to such an illustrious Rococo or Baroque masterpiece such as what I'm beholding. Where is this church/cathedral?

[@MonogramistaML]

Laudate, pueri, Dominum; laudate nomen Domini. Praise the Lord, ye servants; O praise the name of the Lord. Aria Sit nomen Domini benedictum ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum. Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth for evermore. Solo & Chorus A solis ortu usque ad occasum laudabile nomen Domini. The Lord’s name is praised from the rising up of the sun unto the going down of the same. Aria Allegro Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus, et super caelos gloria ejus. The Lord is high above all nations and his glory above the heavens. Chorus . Grave Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster, qui in altis habitat, et humilia respicit in caelo et in terra? Who is like unto the Lord our God, that hath his dwelling so high, and yet humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven and earth? Aria Suscitans a terra inopem, et de stercore erigens pauperem: ut collocet eum cum principibus, cum principibus populi sui. He taketh up the simple out of the dust, and lifteth the poor out of the mire; That he may set him with the princes, even with the princes of his people. Aria Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo, matrem filiorum laetantem. He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Solo & Chorus Allegro Gloria Patri, gloria Filio, et Spiritui Sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be; world without end. Amen. Psalm 113 (Latin Vulgate Psalm 112)
