Simply superb, Alfred Deller inspired my favourite countertenor James Bowman, Purcell music, has some similarity, with Buxtehude, not surprising really has they lived in the same period.
A superb composition by the great English baroque master, and a fine performance by the counter tenor pioneer Alfred Deller. Queen Mary II was the object of this master work. Some may be unaware the she and her Dutch husband, King William (III of England) were Co-Sovereigns. Unusual arrangement due to the fact that being a Stuart, she was the legitimate heir (with apologies to Stuart supporters). As they had no offspring, the sister of Mary, Anne, became queen after the death of William. Anne had no children either, thus the Hannovers inherited.
Thanks, we never get reminded of much of our history except that Henry VIII and his doings, William deposed James II, Mary's father, a Catholic, by a successful invasion, did he not? Parliament went along with this as they preferred a Protestant, odd goings on.
I think Deller was splendid - I tripped over this recording by accident, and recognised his voice instantly; His timbre seems to be neither harsh nor strange.=, but confident and bold; and it works well with the Purcell, in my opinion.

I had a recording of "S's of A" my father had given me back in the 1950's. A 10 inch LP. I wore it out! I was about 10 and would sing along. My buddies thought I'd lost my mind, lol! Still a great favorite of mine.
My older sisters sang in a choir and sang this, so I think I fell in love with this piece at a similar age. I never had a recording, so I really appreciate the internet for allowing me to find it about two decades later even when I barely remembered what it was.
El lunes 18-06-16 tendré el placer de cantarla en mi voz de bajo en la sala de audiciones de la Escuela Municipal de Música danza y teatro de El Parador- Roquetas de Mar- Almería . para mi es una obra que me gusta mucho, esperamos estar a la altura.
This is the court music of Whitehall Palace of the highest kind. Purcell was organist of both Westminster Abbey and the Chapel Royal. This is true English music.
Totally agree with you Mickel and apologise on behalf of the nation (if I may!) for strangely disparaging previous comment. Of course it's great music.
Purcell is my mother’s maiden name. Family from both Ireland and England. If he is connected to House Purcell or Ireland (installed by William the conqueror) then I am a relative
This seems to be the old Bach Guild "Historical Anthology of Music" LP recording of this that I bought and still have from the 70s. This is one of the few thingst I miss about youth- the joy of discovering "new to you" music and being ravished by it.
Father, now in his 60s, subscribed to Spotify and keeps doing exactly that, and every time I visit he shares his dicoveries with me. :-) (At one point it was an organ arrangement of the New World Symphony. Then he was discovering marches from around 1900. Last time he was partial to Imants Kalninš' symphonies.) This one is partially an old one and partially a new one to me - I heard bits years ago, but I've never heard the whole thing and could not even remember the name properly when I suddenly remembered it today... good thing I still found it, it would have been harder without the internet.
This music also anticipates Joseph Haydn (See The Creation, The Seasons and Gott Enhalte Franz Den Kaiser) and Ludwig Van Beethoven (See Beethoven's Consecration of the House ( Die Weihe des Hauses) Overture, The Fantasy (Fantasia) for piano, vocal soloists, chorus, and orchestra, Op. 80, usually called the Choral Fantasy, and, indeed, the Choral Symphony which is the logical conclusion of the symphonic process at least until the advent of Johannes Brahms.
yurhosed Bach & Teleman (b. 1681) knew each other and their music, and the latter also was a friend of Handel, who used to visit while holidaying at home in Halle. Even wrote oratorios not unlike Handel's. These guys knew of each other and would have known of Purcell's music. Purcell was basically Handel's immediate predecessor as Court composer.
I believe the palace with the gates is Kensington. I suppose that its presence here is because Queen Mary II lived there. Is that true? If it is so, then the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their children live here. Thank you, Levon, for this recording.
+FRAGIORGIO1 yes - William III and Mary II were the first British monarchs to live in Kensington Palace - Christopher Wren remodelled the existing buildings for them.
gwedi elwch Very interesting! I have some Celtic blood too, from Scotland. So your name means After rejoicing? The --fu-- is related linguistically to Latin --Fui, fuiste, fuit-- I went, you went, he/she went. and is related to English --be--, believe it or not. Regards, O man of Harlech !
Произведение Генделя Ода на Рождение Королевы Анны также очень красивая, особенно когда вступают соло два контртенора, и сам Гендель учился на произведениях Люлли и Перселла, чтобы не отходить от канонов церкрвной музыки и светской Королевской..Эту музыку барокко вполне можно охарактеризовать, как Истинно Райская, Браво Великим Мастерам! 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
look at those names ... Alfred Deller, Maurice Bevan, Walter Bergmann !! I think i am correct in saying that in a most wonderful bcc r3 programme on Dellor a full decade ago there was a telephone interview with I think the Producer or Engineer for this and he told us that they 'got this in one' ... wow !!
На 17: 31 мин. было очень странно услышать призыв почти на русском языке: " Будьте Счастливы" сначало мне казалось, что прказалось, но нет, меня ошеломила эта фраза, несмотря на любовь к Перселлу, вернее к его Гениальной Музыке!
@@levon3194 У Вас это: " Что справедливо", но по звукам, не в переводе звучит, как Будьте счастливы и эта фраза даже очень ярко выраженная, когда хор поет - все вместе то есть Tutti
En 1757, les troupes de la Compagnie anglaise des Indes orientales prennent le contrôle du Bengale dont ils pillent le trésor. À Amritsar, les troupes britanniques ouvrent le feu sur une foule de manifestants, tuant 379 personnes et en blessant 1 200 autres.
Very true, but Uncle Alf (Alfred Deller) was a modern-day pioneer. Still nobody to touch the young Deller in lute-song. As he got older, his voice became very mannered and less flexible, and I don't rate his son (Mark, his duet partner) as a singer much at all.
+mattbod I think his voice was at its best in earlier years singing Dowland, when he could produce a sound on high notes so pure and sweet that none could match - not even Bowman at his best. The counter-tenor voice, like the lute, is almost impossible to record perfectly. It's also worth noting that the full recording includes 'Sound the Trumpet', where the counter-tenor voices are doing the job of being the trumpets (the trumpeters - two brothers called Shore - were apparently on holiday, which is why the text refers to "the list'ning shores" - I think Bowman told me this.)

What a great birthday.
Sublime. I haven't heard this in it's entirety before. I shall come back to this often. Thank you.

Just extraordinary... have never heard a better recording of this wonderful piece by one of my favourite composers...

The best UA-cam video of "come Ye sons of Art". Great choice and sequencing of images.
Especially the gates of Kensington Palace. There were tons of flower bouquets piled against those gates on the night of Diana's death.

superb music from a superb nation
A "nation" did not compose this music.
Nobody said the music was composed by a nation. Is English not your first language? That could be the only reason for your crassly imbecilic remark.
superb music from a superb nation, now repeat it 25 times every morning you seedy w&b...h
Totally agree with you Mickel and apologise on behalf of the nation (if I may!) for strangely disparaging previous comment. Of course it's great music.
@Michael Evans I have read your obviously considered and eloquent points. Now fuck right off please!

Strike da Viol, touch the Lute;
Wake the Harp, inspire the Flute:
Sing your Patronesse's Praise,
Sing, in cheerful and harmonious Lays.
Sing in cheerful and harmonious ways
Thank you, Ahmed, but change "da" Viol to "the Viol".
I love Purcell's music. So beautiful.
Alfred Deller has a beautiful voice which one always recognizes easily.
See nature rejoicing has shown us the way with innocent revels to welcome this day.
Interesting that Bach and Handel were both about nine years of age when Purcell composed this.
Both Bach and Handel were born in 1685. (supposedly). Did Bach ever hear anything by Purcell? Who knows... but Handel undoubtedly did,
This music also anticipates Joseph Haydn (See The Creation, The Seasons and Gott Enhalte Franz Den Kaiser) and Ludwig Van Beethoven (See Beethoven's Consecration of the House ( Die Weihe des Hauses) Overture, The Fantasy (Fantasia) for piano, vocal soloists, chorus, and orchestra, Op. 80, usually called the Choral Fantasy, and, indeed, the Choral Symphony which is the logical conclusion of the symphonic process at least until the advent of Johannes Brahms.

Andew Parrott is coming to Jerusalem next week to conduct this wonderful music, We are greatly looking forward.

Thank you for that information. Are you Welsh? I ask because of your first and last name, which I cannot identify as to origin. Regards.
Yes - 'gwedi elwch' comes from the early Welsh poem Y Gododdin ... the full line is 'a gwedi elwch tawelwch fu' .. 'after rejoicing there was silence'

The interesting thing is that she was the elder sister of Queen Anne and her birthday song was ode the birthday of Queen Anne written by Handel.

The recording is of its time, slower tempo, more measured phrasing, but if not for Alfred, what of the modern counter-tenor?

Great composition. Maybe I prefer the interpretation from Elliot Gardiner and the Monteverdi Choir.
I agree, I also prefer the performance you mentioned.
It sounds as if it was written for castrati, or counter tenors perhaps.
Which recording is this? Artistes? Band? Date? Please? Thanks!
Alfred Deller countertenor and his consort.
You can buy it on CD on: www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00CRMJN6G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I also recommend Trevor Pinnock's recording with the English Concert & Choir
love listening to deller.
perfect music to celebrate march 29th 2018, the beginning of a new era for britain, the most civilized nation on earth

Very strange harsh counter tenor sound much less mellow than the sound that Bowman or Scholl make today. It is still interesting though.

Yes.
Kann irgendwer Deutsch?
Extreme slow motion tempo, low quality interpreters, this is not the right way it should be played.
you have an extremely bad taste
how sad that this masterpiece was sold to celebrate some Royal Leech.
find, if you can, the version of Alfred Deller, the greatest countertenor
ever.
What or whom do you mean by "Royal Leech"?
I had forgotten how dodgy counter tenors can be!!
....maybe a woman wold have done it better ;)
sorry Mr Deller but you are not on form....
poorly executed compared to other baroque versions , mor epurcellina in "soul"
