Sjaella performs 'Music For A While' by Henry Purcell in Philippus Church Leipzig.
Arrangement by Susanne Blache
Video by Tom Streller
Audio recording/mastering by Michael Silberhorn
Lyrics by John Dryden and Nathaniel Lee:
Music for a while
Shall all your cares beguile.
Wond'ring how your pains were eas'd
And disdaining to be pleas'd
Till Alecto free the dead
From their eternal bands,
Till the snakes drop from her head,
And the whip from out her hands.
I love how the accompanying parts are SO musical and totally hold down the fort for the upper voices.
at around 1:00 the 2nd soprano echos the 1st soprano line twice and is just so beautiful and delicate. 10 seconds of some of the most beautiful sounds ive ever heard :-) and overall this entire recording....flawless!
Well sung Purcell always calms my soul. This rendition is so divine that I am so relaxed I feel like a marshmallow!
Okay so what I love about this is that it’s sung in straight tone. My vibrato is so hard to stop, so any time I hear people sing so beautifully in mostly straight tone, I LOVE it!
It's the same with curls. The ones who have none want to have, the ones with curls want to get rid of them. 😉
I was taught for years that vibrato was the best and only way to sing… straight tone is definitely the only way for me…
@@treechildmurray13 I think we just need to adapt to the musical work. In this case, it should be weird to vibrate, it would be counterproductive with the ostinato style accompaniment, what do you think ?
@@treechildmurray13 well let’s be clear. A vibrato is not the only way to sing of course BUT if you are singing classically with a open throat, breath support and no tension vibrato is a natural bi product. A straight tone means there’s a tension somewhere. Too much vibrato means there’s not enough breath support most likely.
Well you either have a fabulous classical technique or not enough breath support. A non manufactured vibrato is a result of good technique.
the subtle tempo adjustment for the returning A section at 2:50 -- a special moment. Gorgeous
Beautiful. Wish there was a group like this I could be a part of.
Pure and sweet, like a bell. Not cluttered with ego and phony vibrato
To this day, this type of music moves my soul unlike no other. All those years in the catholic church pews then in the choir gave me a deep appreciation for it. Beautiful.
What a cool arrangement for this Purcell masterwork
Oh wow, can’t believe what I just heard. Goosebumps! Holy music 🎵 thanks so much for sharing. I love the acoustics of a church. Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Beautiful music from Henry Purcell. Six lovely voices singing in harmony. A great soothing pleasure. Thank you.
Amazing interpretation with such angelical voices. The echoes made by the woman in rose in response to the main voice are so satisfying; they even seem natural echoes of the church architecture that they moreover melt in such nice armonies introduced by the lower voices... Amazing. So emotional.
What a lovely building, filled with a yet-lovelier sound.
Habe niemals etwas vergleichbar anmutig Vorgetragenes erlebt.
Wunderschön.
There's only one problem here . It only lasts for 4 minutes .
You're right. The title says 'Music for a While' not 'Music for only Four Minutes of your Day.'
@@MitchBoucherComposer Never mind Mr. composer, when we get to heaven, there we will find music as good as this, and some, being made for 24 hours of the day,and some
@@Elconbrioso I agree with you. I think all the Baroque composers are up there, with the best ensembles, soloists and choirs at their disposal, and all of it is wonderful.
@@MitchBoucherComposer Indeed, this a great perspective !
Caught off guard in the first part XD
Magic, angels
Why can I not stop watching this? Thank you, thank you, Henry.
Just absolutely stunning. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world.
This goes straight to the heart. So pure and beautiful. 💙
Music for a while is one of the best pieces of music ever. Hearing this so beautifully performed makes me so pleasantly melancholic.
Thank you so much for this video!
My new favorite video🥰 Its just perfect!
You're the only SSAA choir that I enjoy listening to... I love how pristine you all sound.. Please make more music ❤️ it's peace to my ears
@Honeysuckle Blossom while I get your sentiment, there are plenty of rappers who have to say something, you don't even have to look that far, some of them are really pouplar. for example hopsin's ill mind 7 is a work of art, speaking about existence and spirituality. It's nothing like Purcell and the likes, but it's heavenly in its own way. you just have to listen to it attentively, only then you will see its beauty.
This brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely magical!
Expressive and beautiful performance! Love the arrangement and the singers 😊
Literally angel voices, so beautiful
So soothing and comforting. Beautifully sung. Beauty in simplicity - something so lacking today.
Siete fantastiche! I have never heard to such perfection! Kisses from Italy!
Wow this was glorious! Thank you. I’m inspired to sing. Please make more videos. Thank you!

Stunning version and performance.
그나마 천상에 소리 그 하모니 들은 소리가 비슷 하군요.
그 고음에 맑은 소리...
2번의 경험...
폭우속에서 듣던 그 감동...
그때 전 기도 했는데 천사들의 노래 소리를 들을수 있기를...
그리고 폭우가 쏟아지던 그 밤 옥상에서 들었지요. 그리고 그후 한번도...
그 소리가 또 듣고 싶네요. 2018년에 일이라...
영혼에 울림이 메아리 치는듯한 소리네요. 어떤 의미인지는 모르나,
잘 감상하고 갑니다. 이 아침에...
Wow, this is beautiful!
Magnifique, bravo !
So so beautiful!

Beautiful. . .flawless
Wow! Beautiful! Love the arrangement, your voices and how they sound together and how it is filmed!! Just wow..
Wow, what a heavenly gift! thank you Sjaella you're amazing!
Indeed beautiful singing ALMOST without vibrato fortunately. No vibrato would make it sterile and cold, too much and all purity goes out of the window, this is just perfect!
Le vibrato en musique baroque est très précis : la note longue doit être posée "à plat" (sans vib), progressivement amplifiée puis avec un vibrato, dans le relâchement, vers la fin de la valeur. La soprano ici le fait à la perfection.
Beautiful voices and atmosphere.
Love the outfits!!
This is hypnotic
That was dope! 🙌🏽
More Please!!!
Sooo schön! Einfach himmlisch!
Beautiful performance, truly lovely voices and a captivating a cappella arrangement - all the best for your musical career, you are wonderful singers and deserve a lot of listeners!❤

This is stunning!
Awesome version of one of my favourite songs.
I love your interpretation ! With your voices, we can feel the wonder of human voice. It is the best instrument ever !!
Such an amazing interpretation of this piece!
Die deutschen "Queen's Singers" - ich habe sie schon mal in Budapest gehört. Wunderschöne Stimmen, sehr musikalisch. Und als ich mit ihnen nach dem Konzert ein paar Worte sprach, spürte ich eine Art unbeschreiblich positiver Liebesenergie, die mir immer spezifisch für deutsche Frauen schien (ich bin selbst kein Deutscher...) - von 2 m Abstand, also ohne sie überhaupt berührt zu haben. Es war so wirklich saugut, dadurch emotionell wieder aufgeladen zu sein.
Saugut?
Strassenslang
