You don't hear many counteraltos like that, and I love the German tenor.
Oh, yes. Just finished watching that. I've gotta make a permanent save of that one.
Two things: First, I'm glad they let the guy do the trumpet solo on "The Trumpet Shall Sound" because the woman looked like she was red in the face just from the Hallelujah Chorus. I think the Trumpet Shall Sound would have given her a stroke.
Second: They could have used a bigger chorus because when the timpanist got into it he overpowered them.
But it was great. Shows the one thing that fucking churches are good for. Excellent acoustics!
