la migliore interpretazione di ah si ben mio!!!! purtroppo la pira non era di certo il suo pezzo forte...ma il vero artista e cantante non si giudica dall'acuto...quest'aria mi ha fatto veramemte commuovere grande Domingo!!!!!
Edizione eccezionale. Rappresentazioni così oggi ce le possiamo solo sognare. Domingo sugli scudi ed il pubblico se ne rende conto. Una delle edizioni più belle che abbia sentito. Dramma, pathos, amore struggente e gelosia. Cappuccilli meraviglioso. Spettacolo puro.
Ho risentito Lauri Volpi e Corelli...non credo che Domingo con tutta la sua presenza scenica possa ergersi a livello dei tenori che le ho appena citato
La voce di Corelli avrebbero dovuto dichiararla Patrimonio dell'umanità. Trovarne una con lo stesso argento e la stessa bellezza è quasi impossibile. Per mio gusto è secondo solo a Del Monaco. Aveva solo il limite di portarla un po'. Ma era la moda allora. Lauri Volpi altro squillo brioso. Purtroppo non sempre a fuoco. A volte pareva un po' "impiccato". Domingo aveva tutto quello che non avevano loro. Fraseggio, timbro, capacità di trasmettere le emozioni. Gli altri due rispetto a quelli difettavano. Specie Lauri Volpi. Ovviamente a mio giudizio. Parliamo sempre e comunque di eccellenze. Specie se paragoniamo ad oggi.... Sui nostri tempi concordo nel dire che siamo lontani anni luce da voci come quelle.
Ah sì, ben mio; coll'essere io tuo, tu mia consorte, avrò più l'alma intrepida, il braccio avrò più forte. Ma pur, se nella pagina de' miei destini è scritto ch'io resti fra le vittime, dal ferro ostil trafitto, ch'io resti fra le vittime, dal ferro ostil trafitto, fra quegli estremi aneliti a te il pensier verrà, verrà e solo in ciel precederti la morte a me parrà! Fra quegli estremi aneliti la morte a me parrà, parrà. E solo in ciel precederti la morte a me parrà! la morte a me, a me parrà e solo in ciel e solo in ciel precederti la morte a me parrà, la morte a me parrà!
In an opera collosally packed with outstanding set pieces, this duet is my favorite part of the opera. I could say I'm a sucker for Romance- but NO WAY am I reading Romance novel that aren't classic literature
@@potusumanbibingka The best versions of this opera are 1. Del Monaco, Leila Gencer, Ettore Bastianini and the great Fedora Barbieri and 2. is with Franco Corelli, Leontyne Price, Bastianini and Simionato. Both are amazing and on a completely different level.
@@hugofuentes4822 Cuando hablo de mejor voz, hablo de voces que ontológica y técnicamente sean superiores, como Pavarotti, Corelli o el mismo del Mónaco. 🙏
@@juanmurillo8000, Pavarotti es un lírico-ligero (más ligero que lírico), Corelli es un _spinto_ y el propio Domingo es un lírico-spinto como mucho. El único dramático aquí es Del Monaco. Dramático y un p... voceras con la sensibilidad artística de un rodaballo, por cierto.
Tenoren som som også musikere kan lære av. I dagens verden synes det meg at musikalitet og frasering ikke blir verdsatt. Domingo er jo både skuespiller-sanger og musiker. Jeg ber alle lytt til denne utrolige Artist. Brynjar Hoff
@@Un_Gordo_De_Derecha he is here like baritone, no mezzo voce in ah! Si ben mio... No beauty, just reading a text, and bad ending aria... Lauri Volpi was right...
@@maximus1295 I absolutely disagree with you. reading a text ?. Go to the ENT sir. You really need it. It is one thing that he does not like it and another that he messes with the professionalism of this TENOR. It does not matter its baritone color. It is tenor and this Ah si ben mio is the best of what has been heard. Ask the public. Ah, finally. Lauri Volpi is not particularly bright here. I don't know where you got that comparison from.
Plácido domingo era a mi humilde parecer el mejor tenor de su época, a los grandes entendidos que aquí lo critican, quiero recordarles que el es autodidacta y comenzó en sus inicios siendo barítono, por algo, los grandes teatros del mundo siempre lo tuvieron como principal figura, esta bien que el final del aria no es como estamos acostumbrados a oír si mal no recuerdo, jose cura, otro excelente tenor fue muy criticado en España por lo mismo, pero cada interprete desarrolla su personaje en la forma que el mas guste, siempre y cuando no dañe la tonalidad que el mismo compositor realizo para el personaje, asi mismo, es fraseo de domingo es excelente, pavarotti no era un excelente actor y sin embargo todavía lo consideran el mejor del mundo, espero que mas gente siga subiendo videos como estos que nos brindan un amplio panorama de las diversas interpretaciones de los cantantes, bravo domingo, y gracias por su voz
Germán Mauricio Diaz para empezar jose cura era horrible escucharlo cantar, una voz engolada, parece que tiene una papa en la boca. Actualmente en declive total. Q un cantante llene y lo llamen teatros hoy día tiene necesariamente por ser un dios del canto. Simplemente q por su marketing bestial desde hace años, hace q llene los teatros y Lógicamente los empresarios lo q quieren es eso. Pero eso no es arte. Soy Español pero escucha uno a Corelli por ejemplo y eso era una voz bien colocada y proyectada y no engolada como la de Domingo. A mi no me van a engañar, a una gran parte del público si, pq no profundiza verdaderamente en lo q es el arte del canto en su esencia.
Germán Mauricio Diaz Y eso q era el mejor en su época lo dirá usted. Llevo más de 30 años comprando revistas especializadas en lirica y tengo innumerables malas críticas de Domingo. Eso es lo q han querido vender con tanto marketing.
De autodidacta, nada. Tenía dos profesores desde niño en su casa, sus padres... podría estar de acuerdo con usted si en la escala musical no hubiera Si ni Do agudos, pero los hay... En el primero lo toca pero se va y el segundo, nunca lo tuvo.

Тяжело поет, звук глубит, и вибрато в тремоляцию уходит, ни кантилены, ни изумительной вердиевской мелодики этой арии, увы, к Карузо мало кто приблизился. Харизма, эмоциональность всегда работают на артиста, но до бельканто тут пахать и пахать, популярность играет с певцом злую шутку, он полагает, раз нравится публике, значит достиг вершины, ан нет, не тут -то было, соглашусь однозначно с переоценкой Доминго.
Yes it is a B, although that's an old tradition: Aureliano Pertile took B's in the old 78 rpm recording. Domingo was basically a big lyric tenor rather than a spinto. But he does a nice trill on Ah si ben mio.
No tenor in his sound mind would dare sign a high C on stage, unless he is a leggero as Juan Diego Florez. I'd say Domingo is a dramatic tenor, so much so he is now a baritone.
Jose Benigno Caceres No Domingo was never a dramatic, nor really a spinto. He's a big lyric. For a dramatic check out Francesco Merli on Donna non vidi mai. And yes plenty of dramatics could sing C's, even D's on stage!!
Jose Benigno Caceres Listen to Pedro Lavirgen, to Bonisolli. Actually, that video was suppose to be Bonisolli but in the open dress rehearsal, with audience, he refused to sing full voice and had an argument with von Karajan, and left the stage; was then when they called Placido who was in Nice, France, to replace Bonisolli. Placido was simple a full lyric, not even a big lyric, extremelly musical, and very intelligent how to use his voice. Still after many years singing thousands of performances in all tenor Fach, he still -sometimes- sounds fresh, but certainly NEVER a baritone, something, I can't understand why he is doing it, singing such roles as Rigoletto, Boccanegra and sounding like a lyric tenor.
No entiendo como hay gente que desperdicia su precioso tiempo y lastima sus dotados oídos entrando en la página de un cantante al que considera un desastre, creo que son casos dignos de sicoanálisis. Por supuesto creen tener la Verdad y consideran al resto de los mortales como ignorantes. La soberbia es un pecado capital.
Esta NO es "la página" de Plácido Domingo, como dice vd. Es solo un video de youtube en el que aparece él. Y como en todos los demás, hay opiniones para todos los gustos, ¿no le parece? Califica usted de "carne de psiquiatra" y "soberbios" a todos aquellos a los que no les gusta este tenor..... muy buen argumento..... Usted si que está en posesión de la verdad absoluta. Porque si, porque lo dice usted, y punto. Disfrute vd. de la voz del Sr. Domingo. Pero no nos obligue a "disfrutar" a los demás...... un saludo.
@@carlosmonzo4102 Me parece legitimo que haya gente a la que no le guste un tenor, a mi particularmente hay muchos que no me gustan, pero no se me ocurre entrar a poner cosas como las que se ponen de Domingo o de Pavarotti. Ni siquiera los escucho una vez que los conozco. En fin , lamento haberlo molestado.
@@lydiaguarro Desgraciadamente, en cuanto a gustos se refiere, estamos expuestos a leer cualquier barbaridad. Y tiene usted mucha razón en ese sentido. A algunos no les basta con decir que no les gusta tal o cual voz, y terminan siempre ofendiendo. No me ha molestado usted en absoluto. Al contrario, discúlpeme por haber sido demasiado "tajante". Gracias por su respuesta.
No haz visto muchas...buscá la de Bonisolli en la arena de verona o las grabaciones de Corelli o Carlo Bergonzi....créeme que no te vas a arrepentir. Ahí vas a escuchar a Manrico de verdad, potentes, heroicos, con cojones para cantar un personaje tan difícil..
Bonisolli devait chanter ce trouvère; mais en répétition il a refusé de chanter devant le public. Pendant l'air "ah si ben mio "il a manifesté son mécontentement en lançant son épée vers karajan " puis quitta la scène. Ilne chanta pas "Di quella pira" ni les airs suivants qui ont étéinterprétés , à l'orchestre... Pour les représentations suivantes il fallait impérativement trouver un ténor télégénique, car il y avait une retransmision à la tv..Domingo a pu sauver 2 représentations. Merci à Placido qui est un immense artiste et qui m'a fait aimer l'opéra

Pavarotti died in 2007 (RIP). He said in this interview for newsOK in 1983 (link: newsok.com/article/2008516/an-interview-with-pavarotti ): _"I don't know," he mused. "Let them argue and let's even more important than now, when everybody's dead, then you will know who was the best. Then they will have the courage to say what they think. I don't care. Until they see me as one of the best it doesn't matter."_ This BBC Music survey was conducted in 2008: www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/bbcworldwide/worldwidestories/pressreleases/2008/03_march/music_magazine_domingo.shtml Domingo is the Greatest Opera Artist of all time. You don't have to like him, you don't have to say so, but if you have integrity, you will man up and accept the truth. Paz y salud.
@@juliennegeorgi3922 Do you mean 24 Sep 2019? Do not be sad, the claims are bogus. (I don't know why I didn't get a notification of your reply, I'm here replying to someone else's reply which notice of I did get and happened to scroll down a bit.) He has since fully denied that he did any of the things alleged. Try to remember, just because something is written by today's news outlets it does not mean it's true, not by a long shot. (You should check out the APs retractions page.) I am confident that the only thing he is guilty of is of being too nice and being long lived. He turns 79 this month, btw. If you have a specific detail in mind that makes you think he "must" be guilty, talk with me about it. The fact that the 18 of 20 accusers remain anonymous and they have not accused him of any crimes, is very telling. Wulf basically is complaining that he _didn't_ touch her, and Wilson is straight up lying. (She didn't go to the police when her allegedly grabbed tits would've been coated in bruises? And the guy who she says witnessed it does not back her up? ) The civil right of the Presumption of Innocence belongs to all of us, him included. Paz y salud.
Dear Uppity, You seem to be implying that only the people that agree with you have integrity. The BBC opinion is NOT the standard in the opera world. This Trovatore is very good and Domingo has sung over 130 different operas, more than any tenor in history. However Mr. Domingo has few signature roles. Perhaps Don Jose and Otello and I'm being generous. His quantity is a great accomplishment, but quality should also be a consideration. The BBC justified his number 1 standing for PD based mostly on quantity of roles. We were no doubt fortunate to have him, but not in the number 1 spot. Enjoy
@@sugarbist Signature roles: Cavaradossi in Tosca (performed it over 400 times --> a record), Hoffman in les contes d'hoffman, Otello, Canio (Pagliacci), Turridu (Cavalleria Rusticana), to name a few. He was also the best Verdi tenor of his generation.
@@bolleke702 Domingo performed Cavaradossi 37 times at the Met. Hoffman 32 times, Cavalleria 3, I Pagliacci 14 and Otello 40 times. For the most part, the quantity is there and some quality as well. I heard a fine Trovatore with PD in the late 1970s which was excellent as well. However placing Domingo in the number 1 spot by the BBC just doesn't sit well with me. I believe PD had a medium size spinto voice with a fine velvet quality, but the squeezing in the passaggio and higher with obvious sour high notes after the 1970s seemed to be something that stayed with him until singing a baritone repertoire. Cutting phrases and high notes short and transposing arias beyond acceptable practices was another oversight by his fans. Circa 1988 he campaigned to lower the Universal Pitch, which eventually did not happen. I saw him circa 1993 in I Pagliacci at the Met. I was very enthused about the event of seeing the world class tenor, but I unfortunately came away disappointed. Choking in the passaggio and higher made him almost inaudible at times. Omitting the 2nd B-Flat in No Pagliaccio Non Son was not a big deal, but the first B- flat in the aria was strained and not very audible. It's not just the high notes, but cutting phrases short and squeezing in the passaggio sticks in my craw. His Zarzuelas are very fine because of the lower tessitura, where his voice does not become strained. A fair to a very good or even excellent tenor is fine with me, but a great tenor in the number 1 spot? I don't think so.
@@sugarbist I was not talking about that nbr 1 spot, that is indeed subjective and debatable. And indeed, by 1993 he was already in slight vocal decline and maybe he had a bad night. If you want to judge him, judge him by his 70's, early 80's recordings. After all, you probably compare him with Corelli in his prime also. Indeed he has some flaws, but they all have flaws. (i.e. nobody is perfect) He also has a lot of qualities: very nice legato, beautiful rich timbre, full lyric quality, perfect pitch, very present and fluent low notes, very good acting skills, musicality (understanding of the role), ... Opera is a total package. For all the skills Domingo has, and his contribution to the world of Opera, one has to put him on the number one spot. (I really can't think of anyone else) If you only take out the singing however, that is maybe a different story. A lot of great singers in the past to choose from. Domingo is certainly one of them. (with his own unique qualities) But as is Gigli, Corelli, Pavarotti, Del Monaco, Di Stefano, Bjorling, Bergonzi, Caruso, ...
Che piacere ascoltare Domingo, una voce per tutte le "stagioni" e a che livello! Grazie maestro, altro non fosse per il suo porsi sempre educatamente in ogni occasione! Per la sua modestia e per tutto il resto!
Gran Signore il Maestro Domingo, lo vidi da ragazzina e mi affascinò subito con i suoi modi cortesi e signorili. Voce meravigliosa che scalda il cuore ❤️
