The 23-year-old Gioachino Rossini completed his masterpiece Il barbiere di Siviglia incredibly quickly - legend has it in just 13 days - which Rossini attributed to ‘facility and lots of instinct’. He drew on Pierre-Augustin Beaumarchais’ play Le Barbier de Seville - part of a dramatic trilogy that also inspired Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro. The opera is characterized by youthful energy and bold wit: qualities brought to the fore in Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier’s colourful production.
Il barbiere di Siviglia has all the ingredients for comic chaos: an imprisoned young woman, her lecherous guardian and a young noble suitor. Skilfully plotting behind the scenes is Figaro - an irrepressible and inventive character in whom many have seen a resemblance to the young Rossini himself. The score fizzes with musical brilliance, from Figaro’s famous entrance aria ‘Largo al factotum’ to the frenzy of the Act I finale, when the five principal voices pile on top of each other. Within a few decades of its 1816 premiere, Il barbiere di Siviglia had been toured round the world, reaching opera houses in New York, Buenos Aires, Trinidad and Ecuador. It has remained one of the most prominent and popular operas in the repertory.

I cannot believe he "riffs" on the score making the piece even MORE of a beast than it is. Amazing.
DeShaun Lew it bel canto. That’s what you are supposed to do.
JDF sang and acted wonderfully. such a perfect opera, the cast, the staging, the orchestra and conductor, it is one of my most beloved blurays!
Juan Diego Florez at the top of his form... The most charming Almaviva ever! Beautiful and unforgettable performance with Joyce DiDonato singing and acting in a wheelchair...
She is an incredible actor isn't she
You mean Juan Diego Florez? Yes, HE is an excellent actor, SHE - I mean Joyce DiDonato - too! Both of them are magnificent and very charismatic!
Songelosodelzefiro Yes I meant DiDonato. I love them both too!
whybotherk So welcome on board! Regards!
Voce molto bella, adatta a questi ruoli rossiniani. Un piacere ascoltarlo, bravo Juan Diego! Grazie.
Best Almaviva ever! This cast and staging are perfection, what a wonderful opera. I frequently take out the bluray and it always makes me happy. I also really love the version from the Met, with Flórez, Mattei and DiDonato.
I loved that! But I can't find it on this site, you don't have a link by any chance, do you?
@@annatowers2524 Hello Anna, if you go to the official website of the Met opera and then go to 'on demand', you will find a HD stream with subtitles of this version. They never released it on disc (otherwise I would prefer to have it in my hands also), but the streaming subscription is not expensive, I think the first week is even free. Have a nice day!
@@freesienundrosen8726 super thank you
One of the bests! 🙂
I'm very very proud to say that this amazing man is from my country
Keep going Juan Diego Flórez! 🇵🇪❤️
Viva Perú! La tierra de los mas bellos valses y la mejor comida. Saludos desde Colombia.
Una delle migliori interpretazioni di JDF, una forma veramente fantastica
Sono di Pesaro e sono orgoglioso perchè a pesaro avevamo ROSSINI
El mejor tenor ligero de los últimos 30 años. ahora con una voz mas llena en el centro, ampliando su repertorio a Lirico Ligero.
Un très grand ténor qui chante Rossini à la perfection comme Donizetti d'ailleurs !!!
Ormai non trovo nessun aggettivo per esprimere l'ammirazione per Juan Diego Florez
Stunning voice!
LOVE THIS! Can't wait to watch him live on stage again!
What a fu**ing great voice!! Brilliant & Powerful
Wonderful performance and love the ornamentation.
I love the stars inside the crescent moon.
Великолепно, Самый элегантный и сладкоголосый граф Альмавива из того ,что слышал
I love this man's voice. He perfectly captures the concept of the romantic hero.
However, is anyone else slightly distracted by the fact that he looks like Gaston from Beauty and the Beast here?
I'm distracted by the tree.
Yes!
Lmao now I can't unsee it!
Nowhere near how a bel canto tenor should sound. Very forced, too loud, and out of tune so often. I actually squinted half the time because of his poor intonation. Nothing new for Florez though. Here is a recording of the way this aria should sound:

@@bdf8011 I loved this Juan Diegos' aria (I haven't such trained ears), but Luigi Alva's version is much better, I agree
I think it was fantastic and gorgeous singing as well as precise and on point. I still can't believe this applause. Sounds like the applause was muted.
Amazing Rendition and the Noltes Arie claer and brillant
A classic clip starring Juan Diego Flórez to celebrate the impending return of Il barbiere di Siviglia...
#music #classical #opera #london
thank you, I think I have the DVD I am not so sure.
hasta el pincho, prefiero a Kraus, está a años luz que Florez
comete el pincho
Estás loco si crees que Kraus le gana a JDF cantando a Almaviva. En otro repertorio puede ser, pero acá jamás
Fantástico!!! Me encanta su pose...
Bravo Juan Diego :D
The most charming Almaviva ever!
Love this aria!
He is the Direct herb of Alfredo Kraus. I was Lucky because I've enjoyed his Art around 10 times . BEST Liric Tenor of S. XXI
What’s a “ direct herb”?!
Bravo!
che Bravo il Juan!
Florez è un patrimonio dell'umanità!!
The best Count Almaviva ever!
El tenor de las mil voces....
Große Klasse, beauttiful molto Bravo jdf
Браво,браво!!!
Amazing!!!
Brilliant
I’m playing the violin 🎻version of this for my exam lol (Air varié on a Theme Rossini)
MAGNIFICO
Superrrr !
Bravo Diego
Amazing
What about the guy in the blue??? Is he dead???? I love how he’s just like sitting there while the other guy sings lol
Hermosooooo
Бесподобный Хуан Диего Флорес!!!
Sería genial que subieran el "Ah, il piu lieto"
:0! Xd
La Bela auroaaaaá💖
JDF asiiiii se canta !!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉me encanta estooo!!!
Molto bello rilassante
V
why did they dress him like the Joker ? :''D
Lol
I can no longer unsee that. Good job 😂😂
Because Florez IS a joke. The most nasal tenor ever.
PROBABLEMENTE ARIA de la seducción.
Fabulous!
羅西尼的「塞爾維亞的理髮師」
Conte (抒情男高音)： Ecco, ridente in cielo (瞧，天堂的微笑)
Love the fact the orchestra are wearing wigs
Is the high c written in the original score or is it something that Maestro Florez does out of his own accord?
In the manuscript score this aria ends on middle C, but it is not uncommon for tenors to alter this as Juan Diego Flórez does and end on a high C.
Royal Opera House Thanks for the explanation ! Quite kind
Perché Florez non Verdi??? Secondo me un grande Alfredo!!!
@@RoyalBalletAndOperaСпасибо!
@@RoyalBalletAndOpera He's gilding the lily.
The sleeping soldier near Juan is very lucky!
I love the tree
3:33
I think this song similiar with "Bel Raggio Lussigher" Semiramide
👏👏👏👏👏
😻😘
I like his little own improvs towards the end, but the ones in the middle and beginning not so much.
Why does he look like Gaston??
Florez ha proprio la voce del tenore di grazia, con acuti agili e svettanti e pianissimo (alla Schipa), ma non si deve allontanare dal suo repertorio.
Florez ha una voce del soprano sottosviluppato...
Gentile Barone,
penso che tutti i torti, ella, non li abbia.
Cordiali saluti
Schipa = Un vero Tenore!
Florez = Schiffo!
What's the aprox date of the recording?
+Nacho Peixoto (Nachinius) This recording is from July 2009.
+Royal Opera House Thanks.
Non raggiunge comunque R. BLAKE ...
No one does this better than Luigi Alva!!! Don't believe me, check it out!!
Gente , como les digo que canto y me escucho igual? xddd
Mi piace ma non incontra il mio genere
Si interpretazione è buona anche il fraseggio ma la voce in basso e scarsa è un timbro sbilanciato in alto , troppo ragazzino.
Very nasal and constricted.
Nasal
Once you listen to the greats, like Kraus, Jadlowker, Schipa, and more, you just can't stand with the fundamentally badly produced tone of JDF's voice, a cercenated, shrill sound, that apparents fullness, but that is insubstantial
Who is JDF? I only know JNF (Juan Nasal Florez).
Agree 100%
JDF es uno de los pocos tenores modernos sobresalientes de la actualidad. Antiguamente existían otras pedagogías del canto, las cuales tenían sus ventajas y desventajas. Cantar con una «respiración más alta» ayuda mucho en las coloraturas. Si te digo que Schipa no me llega igual que Florez, que su canto es plano, carente de agudos y coloraturas no tan precisas, menor agilidad vocal, nasalidad, probablemente querrás argumentar otra cosa, lo cual me da a entender tal subjetividad. No quiero decir que Schipa fue un mal tenor, solo trato de ponerlo en las mismas condiciones para exponer la subjetividad de la situación. Schipa fue un sólido tenor. JDF lo ha hecho muy bien, y en su etapa de brillo y plenitud dejó increíbles presentaciones. Yo suelo ser crítico de Flórez cuando hace papeles pesados que no son para su voz, pero en Rossini... en Rossini fue simplemente el mejor: coloraturas prácticamente perfectas, afinación, interpretación, actuación, seguridad, ataque para los agudos, etc... Si se va a criticar que se haga desde la razón y no de los apasionamientos y fanatismo por el tradicionalismo operístico. El hecho de no sonar como Kraus o Schippa, no te convierte en un mal tenor. Flórez es un tenor moderno, con una técnica moderna y adecuada para su voz en el repertorio ligero.
nasal and thin voice. not good.
No le ganas de la mitad a kraus 😅
Kraus un gran tenor pero rossini no era su especialidad. y menos una ópera cómica. Demasiado aristocrático para este tipo de roles.
