I looked for the full version of this for hours already with no result. Can someone please give a link to it as Delphine Galou as the contralto? She is just phenomenal, no one I've listened to is even close in their performance!

@MehdiCapsII Жыл бұрын

There is no full version. Sorry for the time you spent searching for it. This single aria was recorded for a French TV program. I have edited the video, as there was some annoying voice-over, and I also had the clean recording of the aria (from the same session) as an audio file, so I combined the video file with the audio file, and I replaced with title slides the few seconds where the announcer was visible.

What makes this so perfect is that its actually interpreted correctly in the Baroque style. Not a ton of vibrato in either the vocalist or the orchestra. Melodies, harmonies and counterpoint perfectly balanced with a PURE tone, simply played and sung. And good LORD Delphine Galou has the voice of an angel. Her voice is SO round and full without being strained AT ALL. She maintains such perfect tone without covering it up with so much vibrato we see creeping in during the on coming Classical periods. Perfect balance between straight pure tones and vibrato. Her tone is SO fat you could land a 747 in it!

@@domainofthesun4400 It is OK with me. And in barock I also like a very little, nice, vibrato. I think there is a difference between big opera vibrato (which I dislike) and barock vibrato.

It's my favorite rendition of this masterpiece. Galou's voice is warm, passionate, when most other renditions are flat or setback. She's powerfull and flickering at the same time, wich is remarquable. When I hear how she's imploring, my own voice knotted with emotion. In a way, this interpretation is very romantic. The coordination with the violin looks weak. But still, it never fails, it works. Because the play of the violonist is a perfect match for Galou's voice. I'm an atheist but I imagine that the protestant God, after the trap he set, would be much more convinced of Peter's beg if it's trembling, profoundly human.

Absolutely fabulous quality of singing by Mme Galou. Clearly the 21st Century equivalent of Julia Hamari, but with a depth and French elegance and warmth that counters and complements the Teutonic Protestant sincerity of Richter's work perfectly. Thank you for this joy.

J'écoute Bach, mon vieux maître, depuis des années et des années… Je connais cette Passion et notamment son "Erbarme dich" de cœur, et pourtant, j'ai l'impression grâce à mademoiselle Galou et aux musiciens qui l'entourent de redécouvrir cette œuvre. Simplement juste et tendre et émouvant et sensuel. Quel travail cela doit représenter ! Merci mademoiselle Galou. Merci infiniment.

I am back again... for the third year in a row... who would have thought back in 2019 that listening to the yearly Eastern live performance of Matthäuspassion in the church might be the least possible thing to wish for... Thank God for Delphine Galou... I am not surprised this clip have 5,5 million views... I am personally responsible for quite a few of them :-D

actually Bach was a very religious man. so it is not "far away from any religion" but directly inspired by his Lutheran Christian religion. a lot of his works are intended for the divine service of the Lutheran Church. (this one included.)
