Andreas Scholl and James Bowman duetting, 'Hark the Trumpets' (Purcell), Royal Festival Hall, unscheduled (second) encore.
*happy dreamy swoon*
Bowman, for all his self-deprecation during the intro -- he was, by Scholl's own request, the external examiner at Scholl's final exams back in 1992 -- is not old or past it. And it's fascinating to hear two of the finest living counter-tenors singing together, and to have such an illustration of their different timbres.
