Purcell King Arthur ~ Frost Scene
Henry Purcell
King Arthur or The British Worthy
Text by John Dryden
Frost Scene from Act 3
Deller Consort
The Deller Choir
Alfred Deller, director
The King’s Musick
Roderick Skeaping, director
Painting: Thomas Gainsborough, The Painter's Two Daughters, 1758, London, Victoria and Albert Museum (Photo © Victoria and Albert Museum, London)
The musical sections of Purcell's semi-opera form interludes within the main action mostly at the ends of each of the acts of Dryden's text. [...] In Act 3, as an illustration of the power of love, Cupid descends on a wintry landscape and even the Cold Genius and his colleagues are warmed by his gift.
From Synopsis in www.boosey.com
THIRD ACT ~ Frost Scene
Cupid
What ho! thou genius of this isle, what ho!
Liest thou asleep beneath those hills of snow?
Stretch out thy lazy limbs. Awake, awake!
And winter from thy furry mantle shake.
Cold Genius
What power art thou, who from below
Hast made me rise unwillingly and slow
From beds of everlasting snow?
See'st thou not how stiff and wondrous old
Far unfit to bear the bitter cold,
I can scarcely move or draw my breath?
Let me, let me freeze again to death.
Cupid
Thou doting fool, forbear, forbear!
What dost thou mean by freezing here?
At Love's appearing,
All the sky clearing,
The stormy winds their fury spare.
Thou doting fool, forbear, forbear!
What dost thou mean by freezing here?
Winter subduing,
And Spring renewing,
My beams create a more glorious year.
Cold Genius
Great Love, I know thee now:
Eldest of the gods art thou.
Heav'n and earth by thee were made.
Human nature is thy creature.
Ev'rywhere thou art obey'd.
Cupid
No part of my dominion shall be waste:
To spread my sway and sing my praise,
E'en here, e'en here I will a people raise
Of kind embracing lovers and embrac'd.
Chorus of Cold People
See, see, we assemble
Thy revels to hold,
Tho' quiv'ring with cold,
We chatter and tremble.
Cupid
'Tis I, 'tis I that have warm'd ye.
In spite of cold weather
I've brought ye together.
Chorus
'Tis Love that has warm'd us?
Cupid & Genius
Sound a parley, ye fair, and surrender.
Set yourselves and your lovers at ease.
He's a grateful offender
Who pleasure dare seize:
But the whining pretender
Is sure to displease.
Sound a parley?
Since the fruit of desire is possessing,
'Tis unmanly to sigh and complain.
When we kneel for redressing,
We move your disdain.
Love was made for a blessing
And not for a pain.
Chorus
'Tis Love that has warm'd us?

A MASTERPIECE.
This and The Cornfield stand the test of time as well as any 20th Cenury piece.
This and the Cornfield stand the test of time as well as any 20th Century pieces I've heard.
That's not the Lezginka from The Demon. The real Lezginka is here -- czcams.com/video/aiOWA8csDlQ/video.html
This is what the notes on the CD indicate. What music actually is it ?
@@MrVektriol Beats me, I never forced myself to listen to the whole Demon. Just know the famous aria and the real lezginka. 🙂 Probably some other number from the Demon. If memory serves, Anton liked writing longish pieces, so there must be a lot of material there . . . But the real reason we know this is not the real thing is because lezginka is a fiery dance, and this episode is lyrical, so clearly Naxos production crew made an error. I recorded for them, they are very very good, but they publish massive numbers of CDs, so errors are understandable.
Thank you.
Royal Festival Hall - in I guess, 92 or 93. I was part of an audience that was stunned by this piece. It was, and is, glorious.
Who are the oboist and violinist?!
David Reichenberg oboe Simon Standage violin
Thank you 🥰🌹🙏🙏
Fantastica partita ... una obra de Arte con mayusculas , sosegada y sin armar mucho ruido se alza como una de las cimas de la musica Barroca para clave . Sin duda el gran maestro J.S . Bach tomo impulso desde aqui para lograr llevar a su Clave bien Temperado a las puertas del Parnaso musical mas elevado . Gracias por compartirlo ❤
Música deliciosa y sublime ❤
Many years ago in Winnipeg I was coming into my teacher's house for a Saturday afternoon lesson. As I descended the stairs to the basement I heard the opening lines of Dunbarton Oaks - the duo piano compilation - with my teacher Edward Lincoln on one 7.5 grand and his partner John Melnyk on the other 7.5 . They were glorious - the air was charged with electricity. And this Chamber Orchestra is exquisite - Dumbarton Oaks has the Oaks murmering and humming. Stravinsky was an extreme talent. Thank-you for this submission.
I highly approve of the instrumentation choices.
magnificent
Praetorius' ,music helped me get through some unhappy times in graduate school. Then I learned to dance to it. Result = happiness!
Wonderful song of love Patrick
Si mangia un bel po' di note, scarso controllo delle voci, accelerazioni che un fabbro martellante non potrebbe fare, velocità eccessiva... Adesso mi riascolto Wilhelm Kempff, che sapeva interpretare Händel come si deve
Giudizio troppo severo
5 seconds in, and we get the inspiration for the Shining theme.
J don't understand " pianissimis " in thema , j don't understand speed in variations III - 4 - 5 a calamity Rachmaninov here !!
Ben er stil van!!
very tragic this rendition....
Canto partigiano un zzo...... La cantavano le mondine.
Qui ci sono le due versioni successive. L'adattamento di testi diversi a una medesima melodia è stato praticato da sempre. La prego di usare un linguaggio più consono a questo canto.
Davvero scioccante: ho ascoltato il brano con le cuffie, ed è stato impressionante, specialmente il finale! Grande esecuzione! Un saluto da Napoli (Italia)
My grandma and i really love this song. Thank you for uploading 😊❤
ive been looking for this
Musica meravigliosa.
pour moi les vertions ancienes son les plus belles ! peut etre parceque ce son celle que j ecoutais enfant a la radio de la suisse romande et sur un vieux gramophone avec des disques acheter un francs au marcher aux puces ! merci : pierre xavier de chassot
Wow!!!!
great song and great sample for FREUNDESKREIS tabula rasa
Beautiful music. ❤❤❤😊😊😊 Deserves more views
Appropriate to have a picture by Francis Bacon, since he wrote the play as well 😂
I'm sorry but I don't understand your humor.
@@MrVektriol There is an old theory that Shakespeare's contemporary Francis Bacon actually wrote his plays.
I had only ever heard piano roll transcriptions "recorded" by Rachmaninov before this. The level of mastery revealed in this recording confirm that the piano roll renditions were, in fact, true to life. What an artist.

Der Hirt auf dem Felsen Wenn auf dem höchsten Fels ich steh, ins tiefe Tal hernieder seh, und singe ... und singe ... Fern aus dem tiefen dunkeln Tal schwingt sich empor der Widerhall der Widerhall der Klüfte. Je weiter meine Stimme dringt, je heller sie mir wieder klingt von unten ... von unten ... Mein Liebchen wohnt so weit von mir, drum sehn ich mich so heiß nach ihr hinüber, hinüber Je weiter meine Stimme dringt, je heller sie mir wieder klingt von unten ... von unten ... Wenn auf dem höchsten Fels ich steh, ins tiefe Tal hernieder seh, und singe ... und singe ... Fern aus dem tiefen dunkeln Tal schwingt sich empor der Widerhall der Widerhall der Klüfte. In tiefem Gram verzehr ich mich, mir ist die Freude hin, auf Erden mir die Hoffnung wich, ich hier so einsam bin ... ich hier so einsam bin ... So sehnend klang im Wald das Lied, So sehnend klang es durch die Nacht, Die Herzen es zum Himmel zieht mit wunderbarer Macht. Die Herzen es zum Himmel zieht mit wunderbarer Macht. Der Frühling will kommen, der Frühling, meine Freud'. Nun mach ich mich fertig zum Wandern bereit Nun mach ich mich fertig zum Wandern bereit Der Frühling will kommen, der Frühling, meine Freud'. Der Frühling will kommen, der Frühling, meine Freud'. Nun mach ich mich fertig zum Wandern bereit. Nun mach ich mich fertig zum Wandern bereit Der Frühling will kommen, der Frühling, meine Freud'. Je weiter meine Stimme dringt, je heller sie mir wieder klingt... Der Frühling will kommen, der Frühling, meine Freud'. Nun mach ich mich fertig zum Wandern bereit ... etc.
The first time I saw The Draughtman’s Contract it was beautiful and mystifying, but the music was and is way beyond such descriptions.
Great melodies but too much orchestration makes it hard to listen to after a while.
I thought it was great. But yea it can be.
By the way i thought i was the only one thats been listening to this song recently because no one really knows it. Well a few people do but not enough.
@@tylerwhoisafanoffanstrains9246 I didn't know it but know Gaite P. well. Maybe the close mic'ing of the orchestra does the orchestration a disservice. Or maybe I was judging these melodies against their original settings or the standard arrangements of the overtures which seem to have more delicate scoring. Nonetheless, an interesting posting of this rarely heard compilation. Rosenthal certainly did his share in keeping Offenbach's great melodies in front of the public.
@@johns.4708 Oh yea Gaite parisienne is really good. And yea i agree with you. They played it on the radio one day back in November and February. One time each. Thats how often they play it.
@@johns.4708I also like Ballet of the little snowflakes. Outside of classical music i like Taylor swift Lady gaga and a few other artists.
Ice age brought me here :)
nyman is a great advert for purcell, bringing his music to a new audience via a few tweaks

Who’s here from Great Expectations??
Brilliant!
I love this song so much. Thank you so much for uploading this. This is one of the best songs ever made by Jacques Offenbach. He really did great work. This is a masterpiece. 👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Like most from this source I find it bland. Try Ormandy -- not the man most would turn to for Berg.
What?!? No tambourine?? If so, it's totally inaudible! It's supposed to come in, loud and clear, right at the final repeat of the big lovely tune in the nocturne -- it's the climax of the whole piece, and one of the most surprising moments in all of Sibelius! Who would expect him, of all people, to throw in a tambourine, of all instruments? And it's great. Or should be. But it's utterly missing here, which is ridiculous. Go watch the Diablo Symphony Orchestra play it on here, or listen to Jukka-Pekka's version. They get it right.
My new favorite
Wow. ❤.. I listen to a lot of hip hop and etc ... This is something different for me.. ❤
Great music, great film, and my favourite film director after Fellini (ma solo in Italiano - ho visto dieci minuti di un suo film doppiato in inglese e non mi piaceva)

The song is soooooo beautiful ❤❤
