Even Warren realized that in terms of flexibility (vocal as well as physical) the complete role of FIGARO was not for him aside from the aria which he recorded & often sang in concerts plus in his initial MET audition in 1938. Actually he started working in the chorus at RADIO CITY music hall some 4 years before that but had a rough time of it, as he was not given any solo opportunities & only a bit later began voice lessons with Sidney Dietch with whom he progressed rapidly.
A joy from beginning to end. What a great, great singer, musician and personality. This level of artistry simply doesn’t exist anymore, and we are all the poorer for it. Thank you for reminding us of when vocal Giants walked the earth (Warren, Merrill, Bjorling, Callas, Milanov, Tebaldi, Corelli etc etc etc)
Szóval,ezt nevezem művészetnek, és ŐKET nevezik művészeknek, és ők a miénk a Magyaroké!A jó isten áldja meg ezeket a nagyszerű embereket, hogy élnek, éltek,,voltak, vannak és lesznek is a szívünkben!!!!!👍❤️❤️🌹🌹🇭🇺👵
I have recently discovered Leonard Warren, I am catching up with his works...He has made all my favourite songs & arias fresh again...What a voice...WOW...
@@donjose8250 There is a long standing dispute about whether the mouth should open horizontally, which is what Caruso said, or vertically, which is what most singers do now, to an exaggerated effect. The best example to see this is to compare RU-vid clip of the very young Pavarotti in a recital in Moscow, where he is using the vertical drop, and him in his prime career, when he had changed very much towards the horizontal.
Ezek még igazi szilveszteri műsorok voltak. Ma már a tvt sem kapcsolom be. Ezek már akik most vannak még a régi nagyoknak árnyéknak is kevesek. De kár, hogy a legtöbb már csak az égi színpadon játszik.
