I was in the Bad kissingen. sunny

It was the first live concert of Phillipe Jaroussky that I attanded. I am fulll of emotions. inlove

It was magnificent. Everything that he was singing was turning to gold. music

It was a magic evening in this romantic town. There was an old lady who went to stage, shook a hand with Phillipe and bent her's knees to him. Everyone laughed but I think she did what many people wanted to do in this moment. bow

I am grateful to forum especially Jana for the information about this concert and tickets. Thank you again. flowers

Time, to tell you a little bit about the concert in Bad Kissingen!
I was happy enough to meet Philippe before the concert and I suppose, all of you can imagine, how friendly and SWEET he was!!!!!
And of course the concert itself was just great! The first piece was “Longe mala, umbrae, terrores” which I had heard before only from Nicole Lemieux and I must say, I like his way of singing it much much more! As well I didn´t know “Se mai senti” from Vivaldi sung by him, and this I liked very much, too.
And after the concert he was signing and signing and signing...

So, when I realised on Wednesday morning, that there are still tickets for Stuttgart, I decided to go there as well.... despite 3 hours drive for one way, which meant, it was a very short night until work began at 7.30 the next morning! But of course I didn´t regret a single minute drive! His performance (and of Ensemble Artaserse) was brilliant again and the audience was so enthusiastic that he gave us 2 add-ons! After the concert he said, that he liked the atmosphere in Stuttgart more than the atmosphere in Bad Kissingen, where he felt the audience to be a little bit “cold” (what means, he didn´t saw ME give rose

!!!). And despite his german manager who was standing beside him and who was permanently looking at his watch, Philippe insisted to sign until the very last of the people standing in line has got his autograph - smiling and talking to the people as usual...

And now I´m looking forward to the broadcasting of the concert in Meldorf! I must have this!

This must have been recorded in one of those concerts you've attended.

Here's another , I think also from Bad Kissingen, the aria from "Juditha Triumphans"!Some of you might not have heard it yet....the sound is poor, but nevertheless it is quite impressive.... smile

So you've been there, artaserse? Nice! I knew it couldn't have been Meldorf, because Philippe there missed his cue once during this aria, the first mistake I hardly ever heard from him. I thought "thank God, after all PJ is human !"

Hello everybody! wave

I have another opinion about these recordings. roll eyes

Believed that they were done by the same person, but quality of recordings are different. It means that they were done in different music halls (the first must be smaller (like in Bad Kissingen), because quality is better and the second must be bigger (like in Stuttgart)), or they were recorded with different technique, but I don`t think so because.... I am author of these videos blush

and of course I am not Mr. Sherlock Holmes. Cool

Sorry I didn`t share it with you because quality was really bad and I thought that it will not be so interesting for you. I have done them just for fun. angel

Please don`t be angry! flowers

I thank you for these recordings, though the poor quality, but - that is the worse part of my being admin here- they were made without any permission of the musicians.

The more - I guess also, the musicians , especially the soloist , would be not really happy about sharing it with the wide audience, even in this quality.
I´m very sorry, but I must come to this point here. blush

Thanks again.
