A fine rendition of what may be termed Verdi‘s first great baritone aria courtesy of Milnes, two years or so before his vocal difficulties began to become seriously noticeable. The sometimes problematic flatting in the E to F area in earlier performances (which can be a danger in this particular aria‘s tessitura) are not present here & although he still likes to showboat his high notes, he gives a sensitive interpretation of the aria itself. The following cabaletta is predictably indulgent but impressive nevertheless.
Столько восхищения здесь! Но, ребята, это очень дурацкое пение! Дурацкое произношегие, странное шевеление ртом, ненастоящий звук( это не итальянский баритоновый звук, а амерская жвачка)
@@Sacha_Kudli Purtroppo non esiste … O sei un Basso vero o sei un Basso baritono vero . Quando era giovane Raimondi aveva una bella voce del basso vero, senti la recita della Favorita… Purtroppo dopo era mal consigliato… il vecchio
Hampson can't hold a candle to him in this repertoire (or any really) and Allen - a magnificent baritone - specialized in an entirely different fach, sharing very few roles with Milnes.
Wow! Milnes was almost perfect--up to the last, horribly flat note. But I say "almost perfect" not because of that miss but because he doesn't quite match the pathos (vulnerability) of Ettore Bastianini. Sherrill is strong throughout; Ettore is strong and weak at the same time. Listen to the latter's performance from 1959 at Firenze--and you'll know that THAT was The Golden Age.
ARIA EVOCANDO el deseo de la meditación para entender si la vida en todos los sentidos tiene un sentido o todo es aleatorio, sin ningún director de orquesta que la dirija.
Raimondi is incomparable. His characterisations are perfection. His Zaccaria is dignified and powerfully convincing. His Don Giovanni is a masterclass in how to play the role. I have never seen a performance from him that is not superb.
scarpia sublime qui me fait frissonner chaque fois que je regarde de plus un monsieur tres simple et metteur en scene fantastique il est venu a l'opera de wallonie et était dans le jury du 1er concours international de chefs d'orchestre d'opéra
