Jerome Hines-Thus Saith the Lord-But who may abide.mp4

Messiah

[@OscarLevant1]

what you are calling the old school is the first and second golden ages of singing....aspire to sing like that!

[@sescuba]

As an old bass I can say - THIS is a bass!

[@michaelmiller1215]

The greatest Bass ever!

[@NedNefarious]

If I listen to a Messiah recording that's old-school, I want it to be REALLY old-school and sound awesome, like this.

[@allenjones3130]

Although this aria has been sung by mezzos and countertenors, it begs to be sung by a bass or baritone, and Jerome Hines's rich and powerful basso voice does full justice to this number.

[@michaelmiller1215]

Dragging tempo on both, but the voice of God!

Old school!!

[@felipeperezramirez9150]

bring it!!

[@therealtornadosam]

Too slow, but great voice.

[@OscarLevant1]

Klemperer chose the tempi, not Hines.

[@DavidWoodardMMED]

I would believe tempi, etc. would be an agreed-on collaboration between artists. With extended runs throughout, experience indicates vocal artists and conductor most likely agreed-on these during & perhaps even prior-to rehearsals.
'Old School' or not, This Recording, along with my teachers, Sam Shaffer & Mark Owen Davis are my models for preparation, even though I cannot hope to sound anything close to J.Hines or M.O.Davis/Sam Sheffer, The Masters😅!!!

[@DavidWoodardMMED]

Could be but someone strategically placed the slight accelerando in exactly the right places for help in breath control.

[@bryandoane9668]

I tend to feel that the slower tempo lend gravity to the piece and to Jerome's voice.

[@MarthalieThurstonSachemPiper]

​@Bryan Doane I prefer this tempo. North America has a tendency to take everything off to the Campton Races.

[@BodilessVoice]

​@@MarthalieThurstonSachemPiperYou're so right!

Могучий голос Хайнса не должен звучать как колоратурный басок, хотя его подвижности можно только позавидовать.
