And Martin also, I believe he is the one driving Boston Baroque for decades now. There is an old vid of Messiah by this group and it is my favorite version.
This recording made me realize how oratorio singing differs from opera singing! Thomas Cooley is great! I can imagine the ideal soloists of this oratorio today: alto - Jakub Józef Orliński; soprano - Fatma Said; tenor - Thomas Cooley; baritone bass - Philippe Sly.
Una auténtica maravilla. Mr. Cooley, canta usted como entiendo que se debe cantar Händel, con un estilo puramente barroco. Su interpretación es toda sentimiento.
"Comfort Ye" (from Handel's Messiah) "Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness; prepare ye the way of the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God." (Isaiah 40: 1-3) Ev'ry valley shall be exalted, and ev'ry moutain and hill made low; the crooked straight and the rough places plain." (Isaiah 40: 4)
Otra forma de interpretación. Buen manejo de la dinámica haendeliana. Nunca había escuchado este tipo de variaciones. La duda es la siguiente: admite Haendel hacer variaciones o exige rigor a lo escrito en la pauta para cada cantante?
Martin likes the Messiah with a high tempo - there is a full version of Messiah by Boston Baroque but its an old recording, the music is terrific, my favorite version.
@@Forever.and.a.day.singing Comments to the video indicate it is not Boston Baroque but Collegium 1704 Baroque Orchestra and Collegium Vocale 1704 conducted by Vaclav Luks.
une des plus belles voix de ténor au monde! Merci Monsieur Cooley
Love how Thomas ornaments these two pieces. Engaging and controlled performance. Thank you 🙏
Wonderful! I love how he starts without vibrato and then adds it at the end of the phrase
I couldn't agree more :-)! And I know of no other tenor with such great dynamics.
Born to sing Handel
The best performances you don't even notice and the meaning shines through.
What a great tenor singer of pure and high clarity texture?
Beautiful, breathtaking voice!!😮

Heavenly. Thank you so much for posting this performance.
Thank you Isaiah and Handel and a wonderful performance. Kudos to Thomas Cooley.

Amen
Great! These excerpts from the Handel's Messiah are really amazing. Thank you Boston Baroque for the many beautiful emotions you give us.
Очень благодарна!!!

Excelente interpretación Mr Cooley, soberbia orquesta una verdadera joya.
Amaizing glory to God

Lubię Tomka. Wygląda jak menel. Jak śpiewa, to miło, bardzo miło. Czysta przyjemność. Dziękuję i pozdrawiam.
Quite earnest singer
👏👏👏👏👏
Is there a better tenor, if there is let him step forward
ok.
SLOW DOWN! It's meant to be stately and striding, not rushing to catch a bus!!!!!!

@@Forever.and.a.day.singing I tried to include a link but I think YT doesn't allow links in comments. I will try a different way
I don't like great masters re written
