ヘンデル救世主から抜粋だが、エマ・カークビーの生歌である。透明感溢れる歌声であり天才歌人の趣である。

Listening to Emma Kirby is like listening an innocent and pure sound! So beautiful and angelical!

The purity of Emma's voice is amazing and largely unrivalled today. She exercises superb vocal control without raising her shoulders or exerting her facial muscles. I think her greatest attribute is using as little vibrato as possible, which produces her signature sound. It is a very clean sound, enhancing her articulation of the words and improving her trills. An excellent singer, without doubt.

I remember seeing this on tv, in the late 80s? They would broadcast it on PBS every year. She is exquisite,pure, almost like a boy soprano.

Timothy Smith

Indeed it was written for three different voice parts: soprano, alto or bass. Take a listen to messiah as recorded by the Gabrieli Consort and I'm sure you will find the Fondling Hospital version quite convincing!

This aria is for bass or alto solo, not soprano.

Best of the Best!

Good old Emma. Never a note wrong, perfect control. God sings in an exquisite soprano voice through her larynx.

Moira Russell

That is just damn perfect singing, just like a bird.

Andres Fierro

This is the voice to sing this chorus! She does it so well

Nuno Lamas

I hear this wonderful voice since 1985 When she came to Portugal and sang Haydn Handel and Dowland, and last year she came for the Avondano opera " The death of Abel"! Kirkby gives us a unique pleasure and happyness of being in a Paradise hearing an angel!
