HANDEL / FINNEAS: Where'er You Walk, starring Hugo Hymas (tenor)

Музыка

The latest in our series where we present great arias with inspiration from iconic music videos of the past. This time we give Handel the Finneas treatment.
This film was inspired by the wonderful work of director Sam Bennett in the video for the song 'What They'll Say About Us' and is intended as a respectful tribute. Watch the original video: • FINNEAS - What They'll...
It was produced with the assistance of OAE's Young Producers - students from Acland Burghley School who work with the Orchestra to develop skills in filming, editing and event production.
'Where'er You Walk' by Handel (from the opera Semele)
Soloist Hugo Hymas and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment
If music is good, it’s good regardless of its genre.
Love Finneas. Love Handel. Love Music.
Filmed at The Assembly Hall, Acland Burghley School, London
Feature sponsored by Marquee TV and Gramophone.

    Spooky! I was humming this tune to myself today. Such a hit for Mr. Handel. I always loved him but he became much more meaningful to me after visiting the Foundling Hospital Museum, where a very lively terracotta portrait bust is on display. This is such a beautiful video and the performances are ravishing.

    I have O Level Music and epilepsy linked to my autism. See what I'm saying? Nice to hear one of the arias I sang for the practical component of the exam but a bit tricky to be subjected to spinning light. Not a totally inclusive production but nice voice. 🤔

    Looks like the scene from Spielberg's 'Close Encounters' when the hero's repair truck is stopped by space aliens on the country road. Where 'ere you gawk...

    It's hard not to imagine the production team with the fan, the rain bucket, the fireworks, just throwing stuff at a spinning performer in front of a camera. Not gonna lie, I bursted out laughing when I saw the fireworks. 🤣

    I just wish he'd refrained from using his tremolo in every conceivable moment. I've never understood why anyone loving music would want to muddy a beautiful tone with this permanent wobble.
