I am rather amused by the fact that this is one of the most beautiful interpretations of this aria ever, and the public reacts as if they were hibernating.
Yo no se una palabra de música, pero coincido con usted. A los que no entendemos solo nos queda sentir. Por cierto¿no le molestan todos esos "expertos" estableciendo comparaciones y clasificaciones de cantantes y versiones? Es insufrible.
@@mariovicente I'm not sure. They look like they are clapping for a cute child who just came up onstage and sang a little ditty. Their faces are absolutely expressionless and cold. But, well... it IS Germany.

What truly amazes me in this video is how calmly he stood there while delivering this earth shattering performance, breathing in ever so quietly that nobody could even notice, then breathing out his glittering silvery voice in perfect technique and sublime phrasing. His performance here is so beautiful one can hardly believe it. Thank goodness someone recorded it.
Je crois entendre encore, Caché sous les palmiers, Sa voix tendre et sonore Comme un chant de ramier! O nuit enchanteresse! Divin ravissement! O souvenir charmant! Folle ivresse! doux rêve! Aux clartés des étoiles, Je crois encore la voir, Entr'ouvrir ses longs voiles Aux vents tièdes du soir! O nuit enchanteresse! Divin ravissement! O souvenir charmant! Folle ivresse! doux rêve! Charmant souvenir! Charmant souvenir!
Rodrigo here is the beginning of the aria .- here it goes: À cette voix quel trouble agitait tout mon être? Quel fol espoir? Comment ai-je cru reconnaître? Hélas! devant mes yeux déjà, pauvre insensé, La même vision tant de fois a passé! Non, non, c'est le remords, la fièvre, le délire! Zurga doit tout savoir, j'aurais dû tout lui dire! Parjure à mon serment, j'ai voulu la revoir! J'ai découvert sa trace, et j'ai suivi ses pas! Et caché dans la nuit et soupirant tout bas, J'écoutais ses doux chants emportés dans l'espace. Greetings from Lima, Peru - Aug 4, 2019
He escuchado està aria interpretada por los mejores , però és el único que no utilitza el falsete i el que me remueve las tripas, el corazón, el sentimiento, bravo por siempre maestro
Je crois entendre encore Caché sous les palmiers Sa voix tendre et sonore Comme un chant de ramiers. Oh nuit enchanteresse Divin ravissement Oh souvenir charmant, Folle ivresse, doux rêve! Aux clartés des étoiles Je crois encor la voir Entr'ouvrir ses longs voiles Aux vents tièdes du soir. Oh nuit enchanteresse Divin ravissement Oh souvenir charmant Folle ivresse, doux rêve! Charmant Souvenir! Charmant Souvenir!
Whaouh je ne connaissais pas incroyable j'ai écouté Roberto Alagna et Michael Spyres très beau mais cette version les surpasse quel diction c'est parfait et cette voix de velours magnifique !
Je suis d accord avecvous personne ne peux l égaler. Il est magistral. Voix claire une merveille tendresse alfredo la haut ,tu chante avec les anges merci ont t'aime ❤🕊🌹🕊🌹🕊🌹
Além de Beniamino Gigli, essa é a versão mais bonita, é diferente, elegante e ponderada. Don Alfredo Kraus é magnifico, suas carreiras longevas testemunham a favor. Kraus é divino.
The best interpretation of this aria I know. Many thanks to GreekCallas for posting it! Unfortunately, it seems that this excellent record on RU-vid has been truncated from its start. Posting it again would be a great thing to do, if I may suggest.
HERMOSA VOZ . Puede cantar y encantar a las personas que le escuchan. Gracias por tener estos recuerdos. Estas voces deberìan heredarse y no perder estas BELLEZAS .Nadie olvida estos agudos . GRACIAS .
The best interpretation ever of this aria (except for his own interpretation in Gayarre which I even prefer although sung in Italian language there). Due to his perfect technique, Kraus (unlike Gigli, Simoneau or others) is not forced to use falsetto technique but is able to use his breast voice even at the top notes, which renders the sound of the aria more natural and more male although at the same time sensitive and empathetic in sound and style. This is therefore the landmark interpretation for this aria! And this was a live performance!
By Gayarre you mean this? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q1rTaw3O1wI.html Well, I agree about the voice and interpretation of the music. Glorious, blissful, what to say. Provided you close your eyes. The costume, the belly, the beard, the wooden face... In this video he's lost some weight and looks much more dashing!
@AKS True. The thing with Gigli was that he used mezza voce extensively, call it spirit of that era, and I hear his notes as at the brink of switching to falsetto, but not quite. Falsetto is usually devoid of aliquots and sounds sheer (although I'm aware of skill Jaroussky, Fagiolli, Scholl & co posses and like their baroque arias interpretation)
@AKS I've just listened to Caruso in 1904 singing it, and you can actually hear him breaking into falsetto, but hey, this is Caruso, and it's sang with such emotion and beauty that in the end who cares if it was falsetto. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RUu08iSV35g.html
No me canso de oír este fragmento interpretado por el maestro Kraus, y siempre me emociona oírle, he oído esta canción interpretada por otros Buenos tenores y barítonos del momento actual y la diferencia es abismal , nadie tiene la limpieza sensibilidad y potencia para expresar todo lo que esta canción encierra, y solo el se identifica plenamente con esta pieza que parece echa para el y sus infinitas posibilidades vocales.
I’m studying this song for voice juries, and personally I think Lawrence Brownlee’s performance of this is my favorite I’ve heard, but this is a very close second! Alfredo Kraus is absolutely one of the best tenors of all time, no question there!
How difficult. I have heard a really extraordinary French version sung by Alain Vanzo, a perfect diction and a longer tempo than the Kraus version and it is hard for me to decide. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MGmxAHVbijI.html
J'ai personnellement vu à l'opéra Garnier ( France) cet immense artiste . parmi toutes les prestations scéniques que j'ai vues Werther avec Alfredo kaus fut la plu brillante et inoubliable
La elegancia de Kraus es notable."Les Pêcheurs de Perles" ha sido la primera opera que asisti acá en el Theatro Municipal de São Paulo, Brasil. Es linda! Nunca la olvidaré. Gracias por postarla.
Coming back to this comment and performance, it is still as great as I remember. This magnificent performance reminds me of when I tried imitating it, truly, truly, amazing!
As a singer I leep coming back to this video. I think it's the perfect rendition of this aria, the best I've seen - Kraus was always brilliant in this aria, but this video is beyond words. It's inspiring and heart-warming. It's also technical perfection. I never heard a better Je Crois, and don't expect to.
Merveilleux ! Bravo ! Vive le génie humain que lorsqu'il est bien utilisé, mène à de vraies merveilles... Sublime! Bravo! Viva il genio umano che, quando utilizzati correttamente, porta a meraviglie reale ... ...
Mon Jm a quitté le monde sur cet air la et kraus.laLa cathédrale vibrait magnifiquement .merci mon amour de m'avoir fait entendre et connaître Kraus.et enlacés que nous étions pleurant des larmes d'amour et de beauté. Inoubliable à jamais.
breathtaking,high notes.. in this aria..Kraus is the best !!!!!!! i'm a tenor and i'm a big fan of Franco Corelli,but after i've seen this video.. both Corelli and Kraus,they are inside my heart.
