This peice will always hold a special place in my families heart. A year ago my nana past away peacefully and my cousin who was a former soprano sang this aria at the funeral as it was one of her favorite pieces and Handel was her favorite composer. She loved the Water Music and the Messiah as well even though we are a Jewish family. I miss her very much.
Lascia ch'io pianga Mia cruda sorte E che sospiri La libertà E che sospiri E che sospiri La libertà Il duolo infranga Queste ritorte De' miei martiri Sol per pietà De' miei martiri Sol per pietà
This is how Handel should be performed. The blend of instruments and voice is amazing. I normally don't like listening to sopranos but I have to say that this performance is beautiful and I could listen forever.
@@jacintaaconng1 Why does this person have to explain anything to you? He or she is not a government official that needs to be held accountable. His or her opinion is theirs alone without explanation.
Funny how people can love the same music and have different reactions. I fall in love (albeit in a superficial internet sense) with every soprano who does something this beautifully!
To feel happy we need to few sadness, I think we have tears deep inside that we want to let out, the music helps us cry and after it we feel happiness and joy because we finally let it go.
Tears, always tears when I hear this beautiful piece of music. I first heard it in a movie my wife recommended "Farinelli", then the Cecilia Bartolli version. But this version, with the wonderful Kirsten Blaise and the Voices of Music is sublime.
What I love most about this performance is how the sounds of the vocalist and the period instruments blend so beautifully, especially when I close my eyes and listen to the nuances and interplay of all the voices in this ensemble. Thank you.
I feel - deeply inside me - that this remains the best ever Lascia ch'io pianga. That is saying something because I had thought dear Joyces's would never be surpassed. But the emotion bedded in the piece draws such depth from all "our" women AND the strings. As others have said with this - one instrument. Beautiful - play it again DeeDee
What a sublime performance. Ravishing voice, responsive partnering from the orchestra. A truly tender and world class performance. What a privilege to hear.
Beautiful. Brings tears to my eyes. Handel really was a master. The instrumental refrain at the beginning and the end to bookend the aria is perfect composition. Just brings the tears out after the lamentation.
Handel was indeed a master, and here his work is being played by artists who are also masters. They are definitely among the top tear of baroque chamber orchestras. I don't know how it can get much better. Mr. Handel would be pleased, I'm sure.
And the lyrics are wonderful...full of melancholia Handel!! "Let me weep My cruel fate, And that I should have freedom. The duel infringes within these twisted places, in my sufferings I pray for mercy." Lascia ch'io pianga Mia cruda sorte, E che sospiri La libertà. Il duolo infranga Queste ritorte, De' miei martiri Sol per pietà.
Who could not cry to listen to the purity of these notes and this beautiful interpretation? Only if you look at the starry sky do we understand where these melodies come from ...
She's using vibrato sparigly, giving it a warm, straight tone to match the strings. It makes all instruments blend really well. Notice she uses more vibrato when just being accompanied by the basso continuo, then goes back to pure tone
Love this aria, learned it over 20 years ago & is one of my favourites - this version with the instruments and voice/interpretation together is fantastic! thank you!
I feel high spirited every time I listen to any work of Hendel. Althogh it is calming but not sad, it can be described as something delightful peaceful and joyful simutaneously. Hedel is my therapist in some way. Thank him for my soul cure when I am depressed.
I heard it in K-drama Beethoven Virus (2008) which has a lot of classic tracks, finally found this, this was included in Beethoven Virus OST. This has a sorrow tone, calm, quiet yet powerful. Thank you for posting, and thank you the ones create this performance. Very beautiful!
He Co wrote with beethoven often♥♥ just beautiful. I stumbled across this piece as its in my sheet music collection and decided to play it on my cello. . It made me cry. .so beautiful
A beautiful piece of music - clever old Handel that he could compose a real tearjerker like this! Rinaldo was the first Italian opera to be produced in London and it was revived several times to great acclaim. Women weren't allowed to perform on stage so the part was sung by a castrati, the most famous one being Farinelli.
I love this piece ever since i was a young girl, now i am growing close to 50 and i love it even more. This aria convinced me that to encounter, once in life time, sorrow and bitterness, seems to be a reliable path to arrive love and liberty; which in other words, benevolence and esthetics. 🥀💕
Il s'agit d'une exécution formidable, qui nous touche si profondément. Ces artistes sont tout à fait capables d'interpréter cette belle composition de Haëndel. That is very kind of you.
I've been looking for this damn piece since I heard it on classic fm and was dumbstruck. I couldn't for the life of me remember the name or the composer so I'd just spend hours in the day looking around for it and finally I found it almost accidentally. my search was not in vain and as usual this channel has the best version I've heard. Bravo.
Kyle Whitehead -- Handel used the same music for another piece, "Lascia la Spina", which you might also enjoy. "Lascia la Spina" is from "Il trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno" while "Lascia Ch'io Pianga" is from "Rinaldo". My own favorite recording of "Laschia la Spina" is the one by Cecilia Bartoli.
From the players and what they're wearing, this seems to be from the same concert as that sublime performance of Corelli's Concerto in D Major Op. 6 No. 4. What a concert that must have been! Both of these performances bring me to tears of joy with their beauty.
Voices of Music... perfect balance in everything... masters of sound and masters of silence... even the natural scratches of the instruments and digitation add to this glorious harmony... Greetings from Mexico City... Namaste.
Once again a perfect rendition. The precision of the ensemble's playing and wonderful balance of sound between the instruments and between vocalist is superb. This song haunts me in a good way and I find myself coming back to listen each night.
Handel, Bach, Telemann, Corelli, Purcell, all baroque and early music composers, are a food suplier for our heart and mind, provided by groups such as Voices of Music. Thank you very much.
This is extremely emotional and beautiful. What a beautiful voice and reverent instruments. Weldone to everyone who performed 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
If more people would get expose to this kind of talent and music, The negative things in your lives will become positive, And you will start Educating your Self and fFamily. Come up with something that will make the world a better place! Show That you can do more than just Complain, about the efforts others are wanting to do to make things better!
Music does bring people together. If I would be a lot younger I would definitely become a conductor and I would bring people together to enjoy music at its best. Musicians and audience
What a piece ! How could a man ever contain the (allow the expression) divinity to compose something like this ? I am sure that if there is such a thing as heaven, Händel would have imagined it by the time he grasped that simple melody... And the performance.... outstanding I took a deep breath to smell Händel's idea of heaven...
I cannot get who could have put a dislike! It's brilliant! Hendel - is my the most favourite composer since my second half of being a teenager. I mean when my tastes started froming. Still love this immortal music.
Just the best, most beautiful and soulful rendition of that famous Händel aria here on YT imho. Outstanding performances by both the marvelous singer, Kirsten Blaise, and the instrumentalists. Perfect tempo, not too fast, but also not too dragging like in other renditions. The beautifully pure voice of Kirsten Blaise blends perfectly with the orchestra; she uses vibrato moderately and only in the right places, and her dynamics and moderate ornamentations are also very expressive and simply splendid. Also the location with its perfect acoustics is very well chosen and serves this remarkable good blending too, likewise the very good recording btw . Even at the high notes in forte it never sounds shrill ( due to eventual overvolume during the recording session, like I could often hear on other recordings.) So Kudos to the sound engineer as well !!! It's obvious, all artists involved were at the top of their game here. From now on I will share only this video, when it comes to this aria.
Wow im not going to lie this voice and song is soo beautiful angelic voice i have ever heart so beautiful voice and the song i love it so much i wish i have a voice like that to sing that song every single day so beautiful
For anyone who has seen Studio Ponoc's 'The Imaginary' anime movie released in 2024, this great work features in the heart of it - and re-awakens a love of the baroque almost instantly.
I first heard this piece in Farinelli. I was just a child but I was mesmerized by the beauty of his voice. Later I found out that it was artificially created by merging two voices, of the Polish soprano Ewa Malas-Godlewska and the American countertenor Derek Lee Ragin. Then I heard the version of Philippe Jaroussky, and Andreas Scholl. But this is by far the most beautiful female performance. So clear, rich and precise.
Wundervoll, eine schöne Interpretation. Händel und Bach, zwei großartige Musiker. Schön, dass wir die Möglichkeit haben deren Werke zu genießen. Die Welt wäre noch ärmer ohne deren Werke.
I'm just an individual from the south of Brazil, in a place in the interior, feeling a strong power for my inner self, listening to the music I could enjoy the synchronicity. 11: 32h 02/02/2021. Gratitude for being able to enjoy this wonderful orchestra.
Beautifully sung and played. Thank you. I've loved this poignant aria since first hearing it years ago in the movie "Farinelli," based (loosely but entertainingly) on the life of the famous 18th-century castrato opera singer of that name.
How much grief, sorrow, it strikes straight deep in heart... it melts the iceberg... is it coming form Handel, that unworthy carier mucsician.. cruel...
What an artist.
What a composer.
What an ensemble!
awesome - crystal clear like a bell
Voices of Music astonishing.... she is amazing, I love her
You mean Händel?
This peice will always hold a special place in my families heart. A year ago my nana past away peacefully and my cousin who was a former soprano sang this aria at the funeral as it was one of her favorite pieces and Handel was her favorite composer. She loved the Water Music and the Messiah as well even though we are a Jewish family. I miss her very much.
Lovely story. BTW The Messiah is almost entirely taken from the Book of Isaiah.
Lascia ch'io pianga

Bravo!
For every broken heart, for every crushed soul...there is this song. Ethereal. Ineffable. Beautiful...
DESPITE THE BROKEN HEART. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE NECESSARY SENSITIVITY. I SWEAR HE DOESN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND
This is how Handel should be performed. The blend of instruments and voice is amazing. I normally don't like listening to sopranos but I have to say that this performance is beautiful and I could listen forever.
Yes, in a Baroque fashion instead of in a Romantic style
I would want to understand why you don’t like the soprano voice.
@@jacintaaconng1 Why does this person have to explain anything to you? He or she is not a government official that needs to be held accountable. His or her opinion is theirs alone without explanation.
Funny how people can love the same music and have different reactions. I fall in love (albeit in a superficial internet sense) with every soprano who does something this beautifully!
You are exactly right!
This piece always brings me a feeling of sadness and then finally peace... Tears and joy, can't explain why.
Because you're a human being with feelings
@fordpopular8792 Thanks for your answer, you're absolutely right!
To feel happy we need to few sadness, I think we have tears deep inside that we want to let out, the music helps us cry and after it we feel happiness and joy because we finally let it go.

YES!! I couldn't agree more!!!
Me too!!!I also 1st heard it on Farinelli!!I thought nobody remembers this movie anymore
Diese Arie strahlt so eine Ruhe aus.
Herrliche Musik.
In schweren Lebenslagen, Tod eines geliebten Menschen, macht es meine Seele wieder ruhig.
Halleluja!
Möge Gott dich sehr segnen.!
It is unfair that I can't like this video as many times as I replay it...
Just like your comment! 😁
the same ha-ha =)))))
I hear that - beautiful performance of a perfect work.
Well, ... you can easily fix that 😗
I've thought that often and often!
A real delight...a treat beyond words. Not a singer with accompaniment, rather one voice speaking to us in unison...
Noe wiem cole chyba hoje
I came here after our music teacher told us to search operas and take our time to appreciate this kind of music. I like it btw:)
Her voice, her demeanor, her movements...so amazing. All of the musicians are splendid...thank you, thank you, thank you so very much.
Si ,es llamativo, todos son excelentes
What I love most about this performance is how the sounds of the vocalist and the period instruments blend so beautifully, especially when I close my eyes and listen to the nuances and interplay of all the voices in this ensemble. Thank you.
You are very welcome.
Estudio+ensayo+ estudio+ ... muchas gracias. Saludos
Красивый голос. Прекрасная акустика. Музыка времён. Слава Богу! Во.Имя Господа нашего Иисуса Христа! 🙏❤Аминь спасибо.
I love it when an artist approaches baroque vocal music using vibrato as just ONE of the interpretive tools at their disposal.
One of the most beautiful human voices I ever heard. The ensamble is magnificent and the music composed by Haendel is supreme. Sublime piece of art.
Absolutely beautifully sang...........The piece was played when our GLORIOUS dead were repatriated at the RAF Base, Oxfordshire
This is the most beatiful, angelical version of this aria. Her voice is pure an the orchestra blends perfect
I feel - deeply inside me - that this remains the best ever Lascia ch'io pianga. That is saying something because I had thought dear Joyces's would never be surpassed. But the emotion bedded in the piece draws such depth from all "our" women AND the strings. As others have said with this - one instrument. Beautiful - play it again DeeDee
Thank you from all of us.
Absolutely incredible... I really miss the culture of classical music these days...
Barry Johnston Roger that big time!
dont worry theres still a huge community out their which loves classical music
@@captebbtide öuu
I can hardly bear how beautiful this is.
What a sublime performance. Ravishing voice, responsive partnering from the orchestra. A truly tender and world class performance. What a privilege to hear.

I cried as the voice began... no word can describe the beauty and pureness.
*purity
wolfgang wei yes I also cried manly tears
Who could not cry to listen to the purity of these notes and this beautiful interpretation? Only if you look at the starry sky do we understand where these melodies come from ...
I used to sing it after the death of my husband and I cried for years...
Stunning JUST stunning
Una voce splendida da ascoltare e da riascoltare. Chi ama Handel sentirà spesso il bisogno d'ascoltare questa bellissima interpretazione.
Haendel non è per tutti.
É só para quem gosta de Handel e de música.
De Lisboa Portugal obrigado.

Wow! It's amazing how her voice blends with the strings!
It seems she has studied the piece with zeal. She was the best choice. *-*
she's blending with the resonance of the first violins because the first violins are just doubling the melody
Excuse me, I you a singer?
I suppose vocal chords are strings.
She's using vibrato sparigly, giving it a warm, straight tone to match the strings. It makes all instruments blend really well. Notice she uses more vibrato when just being accompanied by the basso continuo, then goes back to pure tone
The amount of talent united in this video, shown by both the amazing singer and the great accompanying musicians, is beyond outstanding!
No chin rests on the violins. Authentic?
Handel would be proud of you all, so beautiful and with much emotion and sensitivity, thank so much.
Love this aria, learned it over 20 years ago & is one of my favourites - this version with the instruments and voice/interpretation together is fantastic! thank you!

watch penthouse it also has many opera songs and it's an amazing drama
I sang this in University Music Department. Always loved how haunting it was. Thank you for a lovely vocal performance.
Thanks for listening.
I am learning it on soprano recorder right now also Handel's As As Steals the Dawn.. will play them at a bar with the karaoke machine
Wow, beyond beautiful. And the players are totally into her performance, perhaps the highest compliment that can be paid to any singer. Brava!
This fits me. I have never cried so much. Morte mia bella moglie. Innamorato mia.
For a moment, I was transported to heaven in the midst of a pile of dirty dishes, worries about work, and the mundaneness of another day
You are so right.
42 seconds in and I'm in tears.. absolutely stunning
"George Frederick Handel is the greatest composer who ever lived. I would take off my hat and kneel at his grave." -Ludwig van Beethoven
+John Doe Georg Friedrich Haendel
grimilde112 Handel himself signed his name as George Frideric Handel. Both the German and English names have legitimacy.
Great comment. Puts it in perspective most certainly..
Handel's grave may be found in the Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey.
He Co wrote with beethoven often♥♥
just beautiful. I stumbled across this piece as its in my sheet music collection and decided to play it on my cello. .
It made me cry. .so beautiful
Oh my god. Kirsten made me cry. Love you guys.
Perfect tonality encompassing a truly moving and sublime performance! Slowly passionate yet so gorgeous and much appreciated! Thank you!
Thanks for listening

Absolutely lovely. Händel is one of my favourite composers.
I love this aria, it has such a hauntingly sad beauty about it.
So beautiful. My favourite. Elegance in perfection. So much love.
In a word, "heavenly".
What a piece !
How could a man ever contain the (allow the expression) divinity to compose something like this ?
I am sure that if there is such a thing as heaven, Händel would have imagined it by the time he grasped that simple melody...
And the performance.... outstanding
I took a deep breath to smell Händel's idea of heaven...
Handel could do it because he is quite simply a one of the very greatest composers of vocal music.
So very deeply touching , actually this is the best version I've heard of this song
One of the most beautiful performance over this absolute MASTERPIECE!!
I love Haendel, tahnks Voices of Music!!
Our pleasure!
I cannot get who could have put a dislike! It's brilliant! Hendel - is my the most favourite composer since my second half of being a teenager. I mean when my tastes started froming. Still love this immortal music.
