    Alfred Deller le premier contre-tenor que j’ai entendu et qui m’a fait aimer cette tessiture si particulière Depuis je peux dire que c’est celle que qui me fait le plus vibrer et me procure les plus intenses émotions

    I have difficulty believing that the baroque era shall ever be surprised for sheer pure, simple beauty of musicality.

    Undoubtly the greatest counter-tenor all times who will never be surpassed.

      Very pretentious statement. Perhaps for his time, but one listen to the likes of Philippe Jaroussky can flip that statement.

      I agree because of the unique, clear and beautiful timbre of his voice most closely resembles that of a castrato which is the point. Many modern countertenors have too thick a vibrato and an unappealing fuzzy sound.

    The Messiah piece is beautifully performed with the same clear diction which characterised the great Kathleen Ferrier. The Counter tenor voice will always be a matter of taste, personally I thoroughly enjoy it. Thank you for these historic masterpieces.

    I think the genius of his performance is due to the fusion of two eras: The emotion and vocalisation of a Belcanto singer combined with a modern counter tenor's head voice technique. He is Jaroussky and Caruso in one person. Splendid.

      @@tipomalito9518 Who are falsettists, not counter tenors? Jaroussky is one of the most famous modern counter tenors, Caruso was the most famous tenor of his time. I compared Dellers style with the two of them, because his style has something of both. So what do you want to tell me?

    Deller is superb-- but that thick and dense orchestra is not. Too bad he didn't (or couldn't) use authentic instruments. The voice does not go with the music.
