The swag of the guy with the pony tail is off the charts.
in a negative way - lol
Tbh it’s really cool
He obviously has a very good opinion of himself.
I agree, and also with the 3 comments below, but, so what! Olivier Brault is a fabulous violinist and musician and deserves the great reputation he has earned.
Probably 1st violinist and way of getting noticed like you did.
I love this performance because everyone seems to be enjoying themselves immensely…the music, the talent, the Baroque style. Near perfection.
Yes, you are right and her voice is like the paradise. So perfect, there are no words that could describe this!
I love it just because of their harmony, together! Great!!! Guess Handel wrote this magnificent piece of opera for them!!!
They are having too much fun, aren't they? Fun to watch, too.
You are so right, Janice; and perfection - near perfection, gives a difference which is vanishingly small.
Long live baroque!
I don't remember being so excited by a da capo in ages. Phenomenal artist.
OMG the da capo! 🤩
Agreed! Super exciting! This rendition is like a happy pill ✨
This is sublime music played with great joy and Amanda Forsythe is a a brilliant coloratura soprano.
BRAVO!!! how wonderful performance. The musicians are very good but Amanda is magnificent!
This must be the finest 6.34m of music available on CZcams. Perfection personified.
Eine der besten Stimmen die z.Zt. Händel interpretieren ist: Amanda Forsythe!
Händel würde sie sofort lieben, aber wir lieben sie auch.
Viele Grüße aus Norddeutschland an euch alle.
The only thing a man can do is just truly love and adore this woman..
Each time and over and over again.
I clicked for Jeannette Sorrell, I stayed for Amanda Forsythe. What a presence, what a voice, what a personality. Magnificient.
Not only her voice and technique, but also her personality is amazing! And so is the orchestra! Congratulations and thank you for sharing it with us.
Totally agree with you. What a voice!!!

It's unbelievable that this is the first time I've ever heard this amazingly beautiful voice of Amanda Forsyth!! I immediately shared this with my sister and she with her children. We are a blessed musical family and now are blessed again with Amanda!!!
Only perfection…sublime!
What a soprano! I will just say that there is little that a man can say or praise, any superlatives are few in relation to this magnificent achievement. Things like this inspire and move the human race forward. Thank you Amanda, and thank you to all the members of this fantastic ensemble!
Absolutely amazing! Technically flawless with very intelligent and beautiful embellishments in the da-capo and with a lot of passion. Combined with this great orchestra a wonderful performance.

Kudos to the lady on harpsichord who's also effortlessly serving as an excellent conductor to the ensemble. Most accurate rendition hands-down.
"Jeannette Sorrell, Artistic Director & harpsichord"
Oh my goodness, how amazing is this? I am now such a huge fan of this singer. She is wonderful. I do hope she tours when the pandemic is finally over and I can see her in London
Che bel suono....soave e nobile...e la musica di Handel ... magnifica...lei è bravissima... leggerissima.
. amabile...che altro aggiungere....un grande piacere ascoltare una tale bella aria...
I have a new crush, Amanda Forsythe. What a voice for Baroque.
Eine wundervolle Coloratur Sängerin. Da kann man so richtig im 7. Himmel schweben
SUBLIME! Amanda's voice is of breathtaking beauty. Such power, beauty and majesty. Thank you to the musicians too
Her flashing eyes at the end declare she nailed it, and she did! Beautiful singing. Shoulders back, elbows back, chest forward, producing a sound both precise and passionate. Brava!
I was struck too by the look in her eyes at the beginning, around 0:09, before even opening her mouth. As if to say, "Oh my pets, I'm about to slay every last one of you."
She is saying with her body, "Top THAT!"
No, I couldn't help shaking my smiling
head near the end of this performance.
Wonderful performance, fine acting! What a beautiful, expressive, and nimble voice.
Amanda Forsythe’s performance of this aria will never be surpassed!
Ja, das stimmt, ganz großartig!
Amazing. Beautiful, controlled and artistic.

What a beautiful piece of music by Handel . I believe he would be more than satisfied to hear this amazing voice of Amanda Forsythe to sing his Da Tempeste. Brava !!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous and uplifting.
Each time I listen to this : what a joy do these people have ! It makes me feel happy. Great music, excellent voice, excellent musicians 👍👍
Beautiful performance, I put it on my facebook page. The more I listen, the more I like it.
Un immense talent de la cantatrice et de l'orchestre.C'est vraiment une pure merveille pour les oreilles.
In listening to Amanda perform this brilliant piece, it brought tears to my eyes because when I was 5 years old, (I am 74 as of this writing) my late mother who was a amazing Colacatrua Soprano use to sing this very piece among others of Handel.
Wow!
My father was a baroque choir singer, and performed allover Europe. He died at 84, 5 years ago. When i hear baroque music, i can always hear his bass tone, this brings me to tears. Baroque music filled our house from my birth. I can relate to what you wrote, brain makes connection, and it is painful sometimes to go thru them later. But so beautiful. 😂❤
Bravo - to the Conductor - BRAVO to ALL The players and their Uniques Style of playing BRAVO - This Aria is simply Beautifully performed = BRAVO TO THE SOLOIST 👏👏👏♥️♥️♥️👏👏👏
That bloke with the pony tail has an unbelievably massive amount of swag lol but saying that I reckon I'd have the same amount if I could play as well as him, he's entitled to it lol, they all are. Fantastic musicians, Amanda Forsythe's voice is something else, her vocal range is of the charts, awesome voice.
Such energy and vivacity, versatility , agility , precision, perfectly executed and all with exquisite tone . A true songbird . Love her top range in particular. Just marvellous. Could listen to her all day.
PROSPERA DI GIOIA... & MAGNIFICA nei vocalizzi è la Cantante , nonché SPLENDIDA è la Direttrice d ' orchestra . Complimenti ! BRAVI !! 🌹🌹🌹
This is the most beautiful and uplifting moment of my day. Amanda is a Godess in music. Going to listen to it again, and again, and again, and it never gets old.
Brava e bella. Complimenti di vero cuore. Grazie per il video.
awesome !! what a fantastic super harmony with violin and Amanda Forsythe
A splendid performance of a vocally demanding aria by Amanda Forsythe 😁👏👏
Oh Mastro Handel, your marvelous arias bring me back to the european theaters of the early eighteenth century
What a fantastic voice and personality! Incredible. The orchestra is wonderful and allows her to show off her fantastic vocals. Thank you!
I think old handel would have very happy hearing this brilliant performance!
sure
Heard this live last night, seated about 20 feet from Ms. Forsythe! Exquisite!
Mark Lafer sooooo jealous
Mark Lafer you lucky lucky chap. 😍
Indeed: lucky lucky you🤩
Wow!
Liked Olivier Brault. Fabulous dressed. To dare it, wow. The chain watch, glasses, hair and ribbon, the ribbon around his collar too. Love it. Fits to the music style.
Amanda is of course outstanding, with a crystal clear vivid voice. Mastering this extremely difficult piece with ease, great joy, flirting and artistry. A pleasure to hear and watch her. Those challenging eyes.
Increible. Handel was one of the great composers in the music history
Marvelous, extraordinary. The whole ensemble is superb! Amanda is a beautiful lady.
When I want to show people what virtuosity as a vocalist sounds like, I refer people to THIS performance!
Amanda! I'm having so much fun listening to these with my daughter (a budding singer). You are an inspiration to singers everywhere.
WHAT? She's 38 in this video??? She looks 25!!! Wow!
Voice and loks absolutely stunning!!!
haha, I, too, was surprised by her age! I don't know how the do it, but so many singers look much younger than their actual age! It's probably true that singing prolongs life and keeps people young :)
@@zralokvemigraci An immense amount of make-up. :)
@@zralokvemigraci I am not surprised that singing prolongs life and is anti ageing. Its a known fact that it heals depression and I have experienced that. Every time I sing, I feel like I am in cloud 9. It must be all the chemicals released during singing. It makes one happy. Wow.
@Fidus Achates JEALOUS MUCH! She looks way younger. Don't be negative. Bringing negative energy in such a positive atmosphere created by the amazing talent is WRONG!
Her beautiful singing voice is unrivaled, and indescribable
Brava. Pronuncia corretta e molto chiara, anche nel da capo.
Cette vidéo me fait un bien immense. Merci Amanda pour votre fougue, votre joie de vivre manifeste, merci mille fois.
Je remets ça chaque jour : c'est devenu ma "drogue". Merveilleuse Amanda !
Pareil !
Just spectacular! The precision and clarity is the best you'll hear from anyone.
Perfection. Couldn’t be done better. They are “as one”….
I never heard this before but I instantly loved it!
Wonderful in every way. A perfect example of Handel's genius.
Surely this lady was born to sing Handel !
Isn't she unbelievable? I follow Lezhneva, Bartoli, Fagioli and.... Amanda. She is incredible and every time I see her live she give an impeccable performance. Brain, beauty, passion and refinement.
Cudowne koloratury, a interpretacja arii wspaniała !!!❤
Amanda should be so much above many famous singers. She does MUSIC. The more I listen to her the more I just love her.
Brilliant, brilliant and professionalism
I DO NOT HAVE WORDS.I ONLY CAN LISTEN IT
She has an exceptionally beautiful and perfect coloratura. She perform the aria not just as a concert aria but as an opera aria, as it should be sung in concert, too.
Amanda - Super Star!
Amanda Forsythe has the voice of an angel! An incredible performance.
Her breath and voice has more controlled than my life ❤️
C'est parfait. Je ne me lasse pas de l'écouter ! Bravo !
Thank you so much for this.Ms. Forsythe is spectacular with voice and enthusiastic delivery.
Handel did not imagine Cleopatra to be a shrinking violet, did he? What fierce energy, joy, and precision she brings to the role!
What a beautiful voice. Love it!

Tolle Stimme, die die wunderschöne Musik von Georg Friedrich Händel perfekt darbietet.
I love German composers like Beethoven, Brahms, Bach and especially Handel!
Mrs. Amanda Forsythe is perfect for Handel arias, there is probably no better soprano for Handel arias at the moment, maybe the extraordinary Regula Mühlemann, who has the potential to become one of the best sopranos!
Handel forever. Thank you for this immortal music and vocals.
7 years after, always excellent !! From France.
I'm here before this was played on penthouse
Love you Amanda Forsythe💗💗💗
I can see why half the world would be in love with Cleopatra if she was anything like this. Amanda - Latin for "lovable" - couldn't have a more fitting name! Bravissima!!
And.... Holy cow, that da capo!! Mind-blowing, and so original! Not a single cliche ornament... Never heard anyone sing it like this. She wins. Everything.
I was surprised to read your comment that you never heard anyone sing the aria like this, because Beverly Sills did back in 1966 and it made her world-famous. Here it is: czcams.com/video/Mh-qOc_3eWk/video.html
@@elisecurran9497 It's good, and yet I still prefer this one. Sills' ornaments are gorgeous, but it seems to lose some of the form -- as though measures are cut or added here and there to make room for the crazy (albeit beautiful) ornamentation, where Forsythe keeps Handel's form and improvises over it without losing the harmonic shape of the aria.
Well said Inés.
A VOICE FROM THE CHOIR OF ANGELS IN HEAVEN
Es muy buena en serio. La voz limpia, las coloraturas precisas. Tecnica y estilísticamente fantástica.
I feel fortunate to live near Boston where she is a favorite with the Boston Early Music Festival and with Boston Baroque. This past weekend I saw her perform as Poppea with Anthony Roth Constanzo as Nerone. It was absolutely fabulous! She has been wonderful in every performance I’ve seen.
what a perfect poppea she would be.
Incredible performance.....amazing voice
What a voice fantastic plus the music wonderful
always thrilled when hearing this rendition - the talent is exuberant !!!
I simply love this orchestra, and Amanda.
More please! Please come to Dublin soon

amazing artist. Impeccable diction and pitch, crystal clear voice, agile, expressive and very imaginative. amazing natural talent with a lot of hard work behind. wonderful.
So much trouble to go through just to make a short comment! But this young lady is excellent and has an extremely engaging personality as well as an agile voice. Thank you for posting this video.
Stunning delivery ,every note a profoundly-baroque-breathed committment, by a Stunning Artist !!
Simply superb. My two year old grandson also listens avidly to this lively performance!
Brava!!!
Tutti molto bravi. Bravissima la cantante 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Dear Amanda - a performance par excellence and I am sure the whole of Canada applauds you along with me for that - a million thanks and more - Love and Blessings always - Ravi Simon
SUBLIME....... Una cantante veramente brava!!!!........... Meravigliose le variazioni del "da capo" e ottima la dizione facilmente comprensibile!!!!
I've been searching for ages for this piece and found this beautiful rendition of it
I can’t imagine how difficult this is to sing. She does it grace.
Beautiful voice and, what's rare, excellent italian pronunciation!
Maravillosa interpretación, y con una magistral dirección. Es sublime y te eleva hasta el Olimpo con los Dioses. Amanda es fantástica. Todos son geniales.
Merveilleuse voix!!! et quelle virtuosité!!! BRAVO!!!
