One of the saddest songs I ever listened to... Purcell was a genius composer. How amazing this music can invoke such sorrow

[@Bigbassdrum60]

and to die a young man like Mozart and Schubert.

[@user-li1mx7yh3g]

Куда же без слез? Это самая главная отдушина, которая даёт возможность прочувствовать свою утрату. Но потом надо встать и идти дальше. Всем радости подъёма!

[@sjuli17]

his voice, his musicianship, his person, all wonderful!

[@davidstuart401]

Life hurts. We sing, we weep. Life's so short. Music of the day or night expands this short life. And then, darkness, so deep.

[@cinziavidali411]

The Voice of countertenor is really wonderful.

[@elicaroline91]

La perfection, la magie, l'enchantement en une seule voix, merci à cet artiste, il nous offre l'inestimable joie d'être humain!!!

[@drpaulduplessis]

Purcell was an absolute master of the passacaglia-see also Dido’s Lament, with the chromatic descending baseline that repeats again and again.

[@user-zu6jy2ln9h]

Я столько раз слушала ваши видео с музыкой Перселла! Наверняка сотни раз - с Шоллем, Жарусски, Орлински. В музыке Перселла есть интонации, которые отзываются во мне волшебным образом. Спасибо вам за эту возможность!

[@AmravindeSchurbap]

O, let me forever weep: My eyes no more shall welcome sleep. I'll hide me from the sight of day, And sigh my soul away. He's gone, his loss deplore, And I shall never see him more. -Henry Purcell

[@tetsuokuroiwa]

+Amravín de Schur Thank you.

[@ekaterinastolz3111]

She's gone, and I shall never, never see her more... These words flow my veins. Devil, what a pain! Long life to your beloved ones

[@Uonlyshootonce]

playing this song for the queen, may she inherit the kingdom of heaven and its glory ↓

[@Lerbun2008]

Veramente commovente, ho scoperto Jaroussky quasi per caso e mi ha colpito profondamente,,,bravissimo !!!!

[@AussieSteveBoyle]

The violin at 5:15 sobs a little as the note catches in its throat. Beautiful. so melancholy and delicate.

[@SaraLilith91]

I am in love with his voice!

[@user-zu6jy2ln9h]

Чарующая музыка Перселла и замечательное исполнение Жарусски. Меланхолия, изысканность, оригинальность, гармония - ощущения, передаваемые только чувствами, не словами.

[@EnchantinglyBeautiful]

Beautiful so beautiful.

[@HelenaWilliams8696]

Purcell & Jaroussky are a DUO that resonates divinely inspired melody of sorrow.

[@ClaudineFranco-u1p]

Une voix d une pureté angélique c'est cela Philippe. Depuis elle a un peu changé mais il reste l'un des meilleurs contre ténors actuels.

[@palinurocorazon]

Escuchar esto es palparse el alma y saber que el frío que se siente no es producto de hendiduras... sino de sentir que a quien amas esta lejos.. puede ser una distancia pequeña temporo-espacial.. y hay tristeza... pero en medio de todo es saberse sintiente... dulcemente se envían señales.. ese ejercicio mantiene el corazón despierto y atento.. de respuestas siderales... te amo mujer de las estrellas... hace frío... mucho

[@TheSuemusic]

Perfect. Perfectly hits the spot. What more can one say.

[@MrKeithterrett]

The performance is so painfully sorrowful, it's almost too much to bear! Beautiful song/aria from Henry Purcell the master of melancholic; brilliantly performed by Mistro Philippe Jaroussky, countertenor & the Ensemble Artaserse.

[@sebastienhugon9408]

De la pureté dépouillée, merveilleux moment...

[@scluna44]

I love the very Renaissance-like ending by Jaroussky!

[@yogaenzovlaardingen5664]

fascinating voice, thank you Philippe!

[@mariasaludmarcomelgarejo677]

Another Jaroussky's superb performance

[@georgecampbell3501]

What genius music from Purcell.

[@Aubury]

Deeply touching, of star dust humanity, passing into the void.

[@baroqueandbeyond]

Purcell exposes other colors in Jaroussky's voice. His rhythmic pacing here is incredible. I love the image, too! Great video!

[@NinaSmi]

О дай мне плакать, плакать без конца, Пусть глаза мои не знают больше сна; Я спрячусь от дневного света, Во вздохах душу изолью. Он ушел, ушел, оплачьте же мою утрату - Ведь его я не увижу боле.

[@sabinepalmer7365]

This aria seems to describe the loss of your father, Philippe. It is a gift to be able to transcend feelings into poetry.

[@user-zo4dk6ny8d]

Потрясающе! Спасибо!

[@TigerRose246]

He's a countertenor, born with that incredible range but he trained to make it stronger. Not many of 'em running around. Klaus Nomi was also a countertenor.

[@janettohara9645]

Klaus Nomi was the BEST!

[@nissulya]

Christophe Dumaux

[@rw8733]

Nomi. Sadly missed 😞

[@IrinaOLIVIERDEBOURLASSIRENEA]

très émouvant, j'aime la sculpture qui pleure au son de la voix pénétrante de Philippe JAROUSSKY : O LET ME WEEP (Purcell) ! très belle interprétation ! Irina OLIVIER DE BOURLAS bravo !

[@johnwishart7950]

beautiful piece of music

[@malaga6]

¡Oh, oh, déjame llorar! ¡Oh, déjame llorar para siempre! Mis ojos ya nunca darán la bienvenida al sueño Me esconderé de la luz del día y suspiraré Hasta que se escape el alma. Él se ha ido, siento su pérdida Y nunca lo volveré a ver. ¡Oh déjame llorar! ¡Por siempre llorar!

[@TheChivo666]

Classic music is awsomely beautiful but....... sometimes I believe it doesn't express enough feeling. This piece is the proof that they are some precious exeptions.

[@AussieSteveBoyle]

+TheChivo666 I would love to take you on a journey through my ancient music collection to prove you wrong. Chopin, Rachmaninov, Handel, Lully, Marais, Puccini and of course Purcell were masters of melancholy, Heinrich Biber, Elgar, and Gabrieli masters of triumph. Holst and Ravel masters of dread. Nowhere anywhere in modern repertoire comes close.

[@ekrathrawl]

Seriously, if you don't think classical music expresses enough feeling you haven't been listening to much. Certainly not to the right things.

[@raquelazocarescamilla2388]

El bello timbre y el virtuosismo de Jaroussky le hacen honor a esta joya de Purcell con la cual el alma se eleva por sobre nuestra condición de humanos.

[@incifisenk9945]

voice of an angel...

[@abside30glu]

[@nosferatus-mancha]

Soberbio...como de otro mundo.Bello, muy bello. Muchas gracias.

[@sailingsam3815]

Amazing artist!

[@Lerbun2008]

Anche la scelta dell'immagine mi e'piaciuta ,mi ha ispirato l'idea della fede nella resurrezione ,ma una fede triste e amara rappresentata in modo mirabile dal primo piano sulla lacrima.Anche se i protagonisti sono morti da quasi cinque secoli la resurrezione per loro sara'come se fosse passato soggettivamente solo un istante

[@geistblitz5302]

So wonderful.

[@karlgrenzler6672]

Es ist einfach unsterblich!!! Po prostu nieśmiertelne!!!

[@musso48]

simplemente magnifico ,una voz extraordinaria de gran musicalidad.

[@kikcta]

sublime

[@joaquinsafont6808]

entras en otro mundo escuchando esta musica.

[@cf5414]

Absolutamente de acuerdo.

[@TigerRose246]

Klaus Nomi did many pop songs, but for me when I heard him do Purcell's "The Cold Song", I think I stopped breathing.

[@zencoos]

One of the most poetic sadness final ever

[@frogmouth]

Lovely

[@anne-mariebaert7109]

No it is a men, but a counter-tenor , he sings the part of the alto song of the female voice ...

[@rikbardyn5914]

O, let me forever weep: My eyes no more shall welcome sleep. I'll hide me from the sight of day, And sigh my soul away. He's gone, his loss deplore, And I shall never see him more.

[@manonclaudia]

Thanks.

[@Apathetic_agnostic]

Душевно.

[@menabarata]

Divino!

[@Alisonwest]

Philippe Jaroussky has wonderful subtlety and grace. The quality of this recording/video perhaps does not do full justice to his gifts. Certainly, it's worth comparing this to Alfred Deller's own masterful and tender interpretation of "Oh let me weep," also on You Tube.

[@francoislebedel4428]

Cette interprétation ne manque pas de qualités mais on est très loin de celle d'Alfred Deller, dont il n'a pas les moyens, hélas.Mais, bon, c'est tout de même tout à fait passable, ne boudons pas notre plaisir.

[@koumbouras1]

Θρηνητική ελεγεία,Trauer Elegie...!!!

[@78fufluns]

I totally get you! I must tell you it doesn't lessen as time goes by ;)

[@KRECIK424]

Henry Purcell è sempre il creatore della moderna.

[@TomKufahl]

Time of sadness

[@penguiiin]

groovin'

[@carolineleiden]

Did he ever do Dido's Lament, that you know of? Have to study that, and hearing him do almost anything makes studying so much nicer. :)

[@sunacelik9630]

Special

[@mares3841]

For my Dad and my friend Mary's Dad. 💛

[@KTR2022]

I love the sneeze at 2:07...

[@sabinahaqverdiyeva6456]

👏👏👏

[@koukoulina]

incroyable de démolire une telle oeuvre par une voix aussi prétentieuse et sans âme..... Henri Ledroit et Alfred Deller sont bien mort

[@francoislebedel4428]

Je ne connais pas l'interprétation d'Henri Ledroit mais je conserve dans mon coeur, jusqu'à la fin de mes jours celle d'Alfred Deller qui m'émerveille et me bouleverse depuis 40 ans. Quoiqu'on dise, nul autre contre ténor ne l'a jamais égalé, sur tous les plans: vécu du livret autant que de la partition, voix magique (qu'il travaillait peu, disait-il ) respect religieux de l'oeuvre. Deller est immortel, grace à la technique qui nous restitue sa présence.

[@Eugenio893]

Deep sorrow
