Io l’avevo sentito dire ma non ascoltato,ma adesso l’ascolto sempre,una delle più’belle voci che abbiamo avuto,resta la sua voce chiara bella e all’italiana ❤❤❤
Bonjour superbe c est un plaisir a écouter cet air n est pas facile car très rapide il faut avoir un sacré souffle bravo a l immortel très grand de l Opéra et merci a vous qui nous le rendez tellement présent merci merci et encore bravo
There may be larger baritone voices, but his free open sound, thrilling high notes, perfectly placed, combined with impeccable diction, phrasing and interpretation, in my opinion, is unmatched.
Who are the listening too? He had a large voice...but wasn't known for his ringing high notes....but his uniquely beautiful timbre. Maybe not as big as guelfi, Warren or Macneil but still big voice. Other baritones had easier high notes. The aforementioned, protti, cappucilli, Bechi et cetera.
By all reports he was a kind and humble human being. Best friends with Corelli. It makes the cancer even more tragic, if possible, that a good and handsome and humble had to die that. People who knew him said he had a troubled soul but maybe that’s where the artistry came from.
Mes 3 barytons ( basses ) préfères . La profondeur de Granforte , la force de projection de Ruffo et le legato , la diction , la couleur si propre à Bastianini .
@@jamesaldabo7767 1 Nella lirica baritono - basso come vocalità e definizione purtroppo non esiste . 2 Esiste basso- baritono . Ma se parliamo della vocalità del basso - baritono allora la mia domanda è: - Chi era e quale voce aveva Georges London?!… il vecchio
@@maximus1295 nice theory... but you are wrong.... Spazii, passaggi, giro della voce, coperture, rotondamenti, affondi, accenti.... tutto da baritono. Nobile, pure!
QUE FEO DEBE SER CANTANTE LIRICO MUY BUENO Y SER BARITONO . CONSIDERO QUE EN LUGAR DE SER UN DON ES UN CASTIGO . PORQUE DIOS PUSO ENTRE NOSOTROS A ALGUIEN QUE TODO LO REALIZO EN FORMA EXCELSA E INCOMPARABLE COMO ETTORE . HABRIA QUE PKNER OTRO REGISTRO PORQUE BARITONO HUBO UNO SOLO . GRANDISIMO MAESTRO .
I really think that Bastianini is a better baritone for Lyric operas than Dmitri Hvorostovsky, whom I love. This top notes are better, but I don't know about his acting.
It's crazy because Dmitri had one of the best voices in the last decades in opera, but imo he was no match for Ettore. Bastianini's voice was much more free and his technique was perfect as it can be.
@@definitelynosebreather DH always impressed, but I always found the voice to be somewhat manufactured or created. Did not sound natural like Bastianini, Warren, Merrill, MacNeill or Zancanaro. These are the baritones I’ll go to for authentic Italianate tone. DH tone was like Dieskau or Wixell, in that regard.
@@definitelynosebreather and Bastianini’s phrasing and diction were superlative and nobody could equal him in those departments. I remember Hvorostovsky saying in an interview early in his career that he admired Bastianini immensely and modelled himself on his style and performances accordingly, however in his later years he adopted the more modern singing style with a more covered sound which in my opinion detracted from his performances. I don’t know why he did it but his earlier performances were much better, much cleaner and much more velvety, with a much better phrasing and legato.
@@Ariadne7710 Hvorostovsky manufactured a lot of his darkness, perhaps to sound more like Bastianini, and perhaps too because he wanted to be a Verdi singer. The problem was that even if there might have been some superficial similarities in timbre, Hvorostovsky had a lyric voice, whereas Bastianini had a dramatic voice. The ironic thing is that Hvorostovsky probably made his voice smaller by trying to make it darker and more dramatic. He sounded impressive on records, but had major audibility problems live. Really muffled. I heard him live a few times with Sondra Radvanovsky, and she absolutely swamped him during their duets. This is not to deny his obvious talent and assets.
If this man counts to Baryton voice so i consider Del Monaco,Corelli, and of cource Giacomini so do. so something must be very wrong in the opera world.
@@herbertstrenn1635 no, bastini didnt have a deep and size, he is too light to be a bass or bari. He is a real tenor, he can catch some top, which a real bari cant
@@herbertstrenn1635 lasci perdere è evidente che siamo di fronte a un saccente con orecchie a cui servirebbe un test dell' udito....ma al mondo c'e' posto per tutti e noi siamo tolleranti 😂
