BBC Documentary About L'ARTE DEI CASTRATI British Broadcasting Corporation (Production Company) Television Program (Media Center) part 2: • BBC4 Doc • 'I CASTRATI... -
Thank you Nicholas Clapton for explaining and translating opera terms in such a noncondecening way that a cretin like myself fully understands what TF yall are talking about. Absolutely fascinating documentary! Thanks you!
The worst part of being a castrato is not being allowed to marry as the Roman Catholic church forbade marriages where the couple is not able to reproduce. Carlo Broschi Farinelli could have married and adopted orphan children, as he was a heterosexual male who was protective of children.
Those were pretty brutal times for a lot of people. You could be a sailor and put up with truly gross food and seasickness, and get scurvy. Or you could be a soldier and lose a limb with the limb being amputated without anesthetics. Considering the options being a castrato might not be any worse than being a sailor or a soldier with a missing limb.
None of these were probably as bad as being circumcised as a baby without local anaesthetic or without bothering to wait for the local anaesthetic to kick in, a torture which happens to babies every single day in the USA. There are numerous physiological and anatomical reasons why it's probably among the worst pains humans can experience, much more painful than doing it to an adult without anaesthetic, and even that causes screaming pain. The extreme pain and distress and drop in oxygen (many turn blue and pass out in pain during it) affects their brain development so much that their average mental health is worse than the average of uncircumcised boys even years later. And even worse than this, is the pain of all the babies denied anaesthetic up until *1987* worldwide for ANY surgery - eyeballs, liver, heart, facial reconstruction, etc. didn't matter - because medical authorities didn't bother to make sure that they had proof that babies experience no pain, so for many years they paralysed them with a drug instead of giving them any pain relief either during or after surgery. They only got forced to stop doing this when a mother found out her baby had heart surgery without anaesthetic, which was supposed to be kept secret from the parents, exposed it, and then they did research that confirmed babies experience much MORE pain than older children or adults, they're extremely pain-sensitive and in fact were dying more from complications during surgery without anaesthetic despite the potential of anaesthetic to be deadly, because the extreme torture while paralysed was naturally affecting oxygenation, heart rate and blood pressure. They've NEVER apologised to all the adults walking around now having been tortured as babies in this way, just as they haven't bothered to warn covid and other respiratory patients cruelly turned away from hospitals in many countries that they are actually seriously ill and SHOULD be in hospital, they just turn them away saying they "don't meet the criteria" so that now all of us who went though covid untreated neglected at home and are damaged by it long-term, had to FIGHT to be recognised as having been severely ill. If they just TOLD people "tell your Dr you will need the same follow-up scans and medical care and rest time as someone who was admitted to hospital would be, and that you might get PTSD and you're not just making a fuss about a mild illness, because you should be in hospital but we've changed the admission policy from 95% ox saturation to just 91% oxygen saturation, and this is going to mean you'll likely get long-term damage including possible PTSD from going untreated alone at home while delirius, excruciating sepsis-pain and shivering, gasping for air etc." In the countries that are STILL "oxygen rationing" regardless of the number of beds available, like my own cruel country of England still is to a lesser extent (it's 94% ox sat now, still too low), they STILL aren't telling the public in big announcements "most people with covid who need to be in hospital don't get admitted even when there are beds of them because of the oxygen rationing policy, so stop calling them mild infections".
Sim pois a testosterona é mínima ,só das adrenais ,a maior produção é pelos testículos retirados ,então é pouca dihidrotestosterona circunte(hormônio da calvície,)
Opium doesn't even make you sleep which is even more horrific. Its a pain killer but doesn't knock you out,in fact people use it to get more work done whilst feeling happy 😂
No I love the voices of contratenors or sopranos or childrens voices... those times were barbaric! All in the name of art.. No! These are times that are too overwhelmingly outrageous and disgusting...music is all that matters. So, it's a good historylesson...leave it that way.
Nah, just track down Tenore Contraltinos (Natural male contraltos) with strong falsetto for soprano notes and you basically have the same thing. I myself am one of those Tenors. I basically sound like a 13 year old who has just started to go through puberty. I'm 29 years old, btw.
@@mclarsjyou don't know what they sounded like to have an opinion whether they should come back or not! Kids get castrated now because they want to wear women's clothes and look like women
Is there any possibility to turn on automaticly generated subtitles? I'm not english and that would be really helpful to hear and read at the same time
I am an English speaker but would still appreciate it ..my hearing loss is bang slap in the middle of the pitch range of speech of male voices and it blurs the consonants. I can get it by sewing the playback speed but that is tedious and mucks up the singing
It is possible to computer generate the castrati sound. You can bring dinosaurs back with CGI so it should be possible to bring back the sound, pain free!
@@FarinelliLUsignuolo you claim to know, to have real evidence for my illiteracy but you argue that am making the same presumptions as you, that I have not seen the doc so I am speculating but it is you who is speculating!
@@FarinelliLUsignuolo first you accuse me of being illiterate and now it's philosophy! You just can't win with deluded keyboard logicians. Good day to you sir!
@@FarinelliLUsignuolo Just the procedure and the results. It's horrifying that this kind of thing was allowed to happen for so long. I have to tell you, regardless of the musical virtuosity of these people, thinking about what it did to their bones makes me feel viscerally sick.
@@FarinelliLUsignuolo There's necessary evil and then there's just evil. This is just evil sorry not sorry. And frankly, I like the tenors we have now better. These guys are good by they're not dramatic enough for my personal tastes. I agree though given their circumstances and with how long their lives seemed to be it could be viewed as a good decision to make though. But only within their individual space in history.
@@FarinelliLUsignuolo Respectfully, the original commentor was not chastising you. He was holding the church responsible. I understand other people might be aggressive towards you , but the the comment you were responding to only attacked the church. I know it has been 2 years. I suggest you to read the comment again.
The elite believe that their gods, the fallen angels, were androgenous. As a gift to their gods, noble and royal families would have at least one of their sons castrated and forced to live as a woman. The practice has continued to this very day. All of the most popular 'female' vocalists of today, in addition to top fashion models and leading actresses in movies are actually castrated transgendered men. Check out this recording of an admitted castrato singing, Ave Maria. czcams.com/video/KLjvfqnD0ws/video.html
It is now what WEF and other elites are tryng to push... sickening. ALthough the film "FARINELLI" is a marvel. A Belgian cineast Gerard Corbiau is responsible. Look out for the amazing performance of Dutch actor Jeroen Krabbé
I never knew about this and for some reason I find it so evil yet interesting

Essa informação é nova pra mim !Mais uma parte pavorosa desse ato de terror praticado contra crianças inocentes!
Thank You Signor Farinelli per il partaggio
This documentary was fantastic.
Thanks for posting.
Utterly fascinating and cruel simultaneously.
Great work. Crazy stuff that went on back in the day. Thanks for the great info.
Edit: except the bowl of testicles
Pardon the expression.....but every time they showed that bowl of organs.....gave me the willies

What wonderful times!
Go Home!

Youd have to have some balls to have that operation!
Castrati on BBC 😎
......wow
Just leave the Barrister sing the song - she has a heavenly voice.
2:43 They haven’t been extinct for 200 years though. The last one died in 1922 alessandro moreschi
Except for Barbra Streisand Celine Dion Ariana et cetera et cetera and so forth
Yes, he made recordings in 1902.
The whole entertainment rig is full of inverts.
@@LeeDaiYing exactly 💯

Quand On Est Con On Est Con! Super Boilà
"Cara spoza"...
Classic ethical failure to forbid the operation and then to employ and adulation the result. Bizarre, barbaric.
We should bring them back
No

@@FarinelliLUsignuolo thank you and I will listen to the music.
Joe Rogan brought me here, sad that 100k kids were made into castrati
Same
This is by far the most fucked up thing I have ever heard of.

Where is the rest?
Ohh! Gosh haha thanks
The Catholic Church has much to make amends for, much to be ashamed of and much to make it bow down and apologize!!!!

I dont see how anyone can not beleive that MJ was castrated
His autopsy proves he wasn't?
i think he was
@@disallusionment4449 it proves he wasn’t physically castrated, as in still had his balls. Now chemically?…. Very possible.
Lol leave it out he sang in falsetto not castrato. His problem was mental not physical
This is crazy all this for a sound to entertain the rich!!! Leave these children ball alone. In God's name Aman.
The singers admired and idolized these singers. They had amazing skills.
The tragedy were the also rans and failures. They had nothing.
Castrato were the most tragic, say it ... it is the truth, it is not about opinion, it is fact, THE MOST TRAGIC ... do your research!!!!
