@@francisca1378 Ghiaurov: "tenors and sopranos are all lovers and mistresses - all positive characters. The bass, on the other hand, has such very diverse roles as Basilio, Philip, Boris Godunov, Don Giovanni. You see, the range is much larger."
@@BaroneVitellioScarpia1 ah that sounds fun! I sing mezzo soprano, but I still learn a lot from listening to him (or singing along with him in the car…) even though he's a bass.
Baritone Jean-Baptiste Faure sang Mephistopheles in nineteenth century. But I suppose his voice was fully developed. Not like the current "bass-baritones".
