I'm literally crying over so much perfection - music by a 11 yrs-old little Wolfgang plus this young boy singing with such a perfect vocal technique... bring me tissues plz
Ich bin ganz bezaubert von dieser video. A fine-looking boy, a voice that you can only dream of and than this chique acting !!!! Die Tölzer sind die beste! Thank you for sharing this video with us. It is stange that there are no other comments. Hans NL
Some later TKC- sopranos have been (by modern video-technic being used by nearly everybody) reaching greater fame and popularity, but to me Allan Bergius is absolute the best one. A tremendous performance here - 7 minutes singing - Crystal clear hitting e-v-e-r-y tone - Lupen-rein D - höher als Hohe C! . And what an ACTOR he is - was für ein Schauspieler! All 7 mts singing, dancing, gesticulating, moving with fantastic ease and natural feeling for what every scene demands. - And he is 11!
And angel, a cristal-clear voice.. What a voice! What a high D! Mozart himself would be proud of this production. Bravo Alan, and thanks Seddius for posting this :)
I understand that this is Allan Bergius and his uncle. Die Tölzer , always the best ! Well, they both do a particular fine thing. At six years I sung in a boys choir in the Roman Catholic church of my home-village. Now I am 65 y.o and I still remember the great sound of that 4 voice-mass we sang in the early fiftys. Its great to look back at those things and so will this Allan Bergius be proud on this video! What a beautiful performance !Bravo !!! Hans NL
Listening to music on u tube is like gambling; every so often one hits a jackpot. Such is the case here where one finds not only a beautiful and rare Mozart aria, but one stupendously sung by the soloist. I find this version more satisfying than any other. By contrast, interpretations offered by adult sopranos seem strangely charmless. Moreover, the slower tempo taken here yields a more graceful result while allowing the soloist to breath mid-phrase as warranted.
Unbelievable! This shall be a boy really? Even a Danielle Deniese would become extremely jealous concerning his voice abilities! Excellent performance!
Oh ja Hans, Du hast Recht! Was für eine schöne Aufnahme!!! Bergius was a great talent!!!!! Danke, Tölzer Knabenchor und Gerhard Schmidt-Gaden! A child composed this oper and a child sings: great, great!!!
Allan Bergius erreicht als höchsten Ton am Ende das d''' ! - Lupenrein! - Ich sehe mir das Video immer wieder gerne an! Es ist eine Meisterleistung! :-)
The "casting": Apollo und Hyazinthus im Schloss Brühl: Melia - Allan Bergius / Hyazinthus - Cedric Rossdeutscher / Apollo - Panitu Iconomou / Zephirus - Stefan Bandemehr
+Toelzerfanclever - No, Apollo was sung by Manfred Hohenleitner in this 1983 cast and Zephyrus by Panito Iconomou. Bandemehr (soloist 1989-91) was a reserve in the 1990 setup.
There has now been uploaded on YTube the w-h-o-l-e opera from this wonderful 1983 performance with 4 fantastic Tölzer boys and the brilliant French tenor Michel Lecocq.
Not to take anything away from this, but I heard the same part sung by former soloist Christian Fliegner, and it just blows away this performance by far. I'll upload it if it's not already on youtube.
Its a joke. In a moment of her aria, Melia says (figuratively, of course): fauns and satyrs will adore me So, her father Oebalus put grapes on his head, remembering the rural image that people have about these mythlogical beings.
You did not understand anything. Amelia, euphemistically, saying that sátiros y faunos would f*k her if they had the chance. You don't have to be a genius to figure this out
