    "What I cannot read in your face, I do not hear." Of all the things Mr. Quasthoff says in his marvelous masterclass, this might be the most important for young singers to learn. He also points out something that science has demonstrated: a smile is audible in the human voice.

    Ich finde den Thomas Quasthoff toll. Er ist witzig und schlagfertig. Und hat als Lehrer was zu bieten.
    Man sieht aber bei den Sängern zu wenig Atmung. Das kritisiert Renee Fleming oft in den Meisterkursen. Bei einigen sieht man gar nichts. Damit zu wenig Support.
    Alle großen Sänger tun es. Gerade der letzte Sänger steht zusammengefallen da.

    • @clefnoteproductions6695
      @clefnoteproductions6695 Před 10 měsíci +2

      It's difficult to get to technical or deal with technique in 30 or 40 minutes. You can bring a voice out, help them with interpretation, where to breathe, or how to pace a piece, perhaps address vowels and consonants but doing more in such a short time is difficult in my opinion

  • @SibylapCymru

    Nothing gets past him. Absolute perfectionist. I know it’s beneath the dignity of such a great artist, but I’d love for him to play a character in the Star Wars universe. He could sing arias while wielding a lightsaber!
