Highlights from recording sessions of "5 Countertenors" and "Bad Guys" "5 Countertenors" available on www.deccaclassi... "Bad Guys" available on www.apartemusic...
Oh my!! Sheer joy that is breathtaking by the magic of heavenly passionate talent . This amazing stunning aria can only be classed as timeless and sung by this world class counter tenor. To hear this is to transport my soul to a place of mesmerising utter unrivalled beauty.
How "terribly much" I miss Marilyn Horne! ... that being said ... Xavier Sabata is the "closest" voice singing today that "fills me" with the same JOY and HAPPINESS that I felt when I heard Ms. Horne sing. His "crisp" and "staccato" runs are certainly as good as it gets - and he "fills" a niche that I thought was gone. I am grateful that we have extraordinary singers "bringing back" the conta-tenor repertoire!
Magnífico! Un contratenor con una voz más profunda que la de los habituales. No se si mejor o peor, pero especial, diferente. Y lo que cuenta de los malos (nasty guys) de las óperas de Händel es muy interesante.
Not only the sound is ugly and weak, but the pronunciation loses all clairity. It's really high time this odd way of singing leaves place to a good one. Are singers well disposed, or shall we wait a new generation arrives?

That voice is a huge gift from God. And a lovely man too.
You are absolutely amazing singer.
