Ah, of course, the people that kept on giving Hampson baritone roles for all of his life must have got it all wrong. And aside from technique, Pavarotti and Hampson have exactly the same timbre, right?!
That is too big a statement, we do not need to ask Caruso and great baritone, Titto Ruffo to come up with this duet. There are ton of great ones, much stronger than this 2. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TulQPsPYfkU.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Dwyp9iuvgWo.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-axcJwCrAsOc.html
@@Tanner-James Yes Hampson doesn't fit 100% perfectly into the category of baritone, but not all baritones do. The fach system isn't as rigid as people think it is. I think Thomas Hampson is a lyric baritone.
@@bradycall1889 Yeah I can agree that voices in general likely don't fit the rigidity of the fach system. That person saying that Thomas Hampson is anything remotely close to a lyric tenor if his voice was more "developed" is madness lol. I'm a novice lyric tenor myself who has the privilege of working with a world class spinto tenor and Hampson in my admittedly limited experience of analyzing voices still believes that to be insane.
PAVAROTTI vive sempre em meu coração, grandioso concerto, os dois tenores arrasaram. Bravos maestros Tradução para o português do Brasil desejando muitas vitórias .
Prefer a baritone more full, clarion and dark, more suited to the ringing jewel of a voice Pavarotti has here. Hampson more suited to Mozart than Puccini or Verdi, most clearly.
Я 5 минут назад слышала этот отрывок в исполнении Бергонцци с Бастианини..Это счастье было слышать,большая работа!не поленюсь и найду..блин.старая опера и выразительные мастера!
Beyond thrilling. I run out of superlatives which which to describe my overflowing joy at this stunning performance. Both singers here, at the very peak of their powers.
Ascoltare questo brano è sempre commovente, interpretato da voci meravigliose lo è maggiormente. Comunque si sente che il nostro grande PAVAROTTI ha maggiore feeling con " LA BOHEME" e la musica di PUCCINI.
Nice to hear these two great voices both sounding great when they take turns. But I wonder about the balance when they sing together in the fourth minute, where Pavarotti completely drowns out the lower voice, maybe it is by design as required by the composition, or maybe it is Pavarotti concentrating on his own part and unintentionally but effectively disregarding the other part of the duo to drown it out. I wonder whether the duo get a chance to really practice together to nail the duet, you can hear at 4:22 how the lower voice holds the note longer past Pavarotti cutting his own note off, and then Pavarotti to his credit "fixes" his or his duet partner's error by turning his voice back on for a moment, nice save but still jarring to hear. Somehow (by practice together or by great musical instincts, I don't know which) the good duet performances achieve a great coordination and balance of the two voices.
Totally different styles in these two. Hampson's position is in and fluffy. Pava's is out and hard. Hampson plows thru and lifts heavy, Pava is in the right spot. Pava's technique is bel canto. A great master. Hampton's doing something else.
stoleczna14 Pav's technique is solo far to belcanto. Try to listen to schipa , gigli and many singers of the 30's/40's .. Pav was a great singer but pushing is not belcanto.
Ilvermibaleno I love the old singers, especially Yussi Bjorling. Could you explain what you mean when you say Pavarotti was pushing? How is bel canto different from how he sang? I can hear that modern singers do something different, e.g., Kaufmann, Hvorostovski, even Thomas Allen and Sam Ramey. But Pavarotti was old school, wasn't he? His tone was light, not powerful, but I don't think he was pushing. Thanks for your thoughts on this. Regards!
@@arnaudraffarin2344 listen to 4.21 , "cor" totally in throat , often Pav sang in this way. Kraus said about him :"iron throat". Anyway, he was a great singer but not belcantista like gigli or schipa. Regards
Pavarotti definitely sang with more of his own technique than pure bel canto. In bel canto every note is not constructed the way Pavarotti constructed his. It doesn’t take away from his mastery, it’s just a fact in its own right.
¿alguien tiene la letra de esta canción? ¿o algún enlace por el que mandarla? lo necesito urgentemente Does anyone have the lyrics of this song? Or a link to read it?
For a different version with Hampson, try ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4GGeTAql3Ig.html In that video the duo are more in sync with each other, and the recording is less shouty and more smooth in my opinion. And in that other video they must be watching the conductor because they cut off together without the problem found at about 4:25 in this video. Maybe Pavarotti is just too much of a soloist for this duet.
It's a pity this duet is not better known, because it's exquisite. As for Pavarotti and Hampson, great separately, not so great together. How this performance is watched and enjoyed and nobody ever mentions Di Stefano and Warren's superb recording is beyond me.
But very "listenable". I know what you mean. But it's just that his technique requires a lot of lip and mandible tension. He drawns Pavarotti here, what he definitely shouldn't. Oh well, he was young and silly, I guess.
