Bravo Maestro. His beautiful voice gives this verve and caress. A master at acquiring language, and who insists on getting it as authentic as he possibly can. When it comes to the romance languages, easy. How marvelous it would've been had Il Guarany been sung in Portuguese (vs Italian). Gomes thought he was doing the right thing to help Guarany become a hit and be performed like the ABCD titles. It appears the Brasilenos took issue with that part anyway, and so far as I know, have abandoned the text though prize the melodies. Anyway, thanks for the upload. Paz y salud.
Bravo !! I love this song so you can imagine how happy I am that Placido Domingo sings it !!😁 I was lucky to go many times at Rio . Absolutely amazed by the atmosphere over there Thanks Yoland ! And thanks Maestro
I first discovered this song on Placido Domingo's recording "Concert for Planet Earth" PS: Just to throw this fact out to anyone interested ..Brazil has more people self-identifying as Catholics than any other country in the world
