What exactly is a countertenor
What exactly is a countertenor and how do countertenors use their voice? Alex Potter discusses the falsetto technique, the use of male voices in Bach's time and the tradition of countertenors with The Netherlands Bach Society in this short documentary for All of Bach.
*Rectification: Alex Potter subsequently checked his statement about the cantata 'Weichet nur, betrübte Schatten' (BWV 202) and found that BWV 199, not BWV 202, was more likely written for the falsettist Adam Immanuel Weldig, who was also Bach's landlord.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on 29th October 2019 in Utrecht. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating http://bit.ly/2uZuMj5.
