- The Death of Seneca from the opera "L`Incorazione di Poppea" (The Coronation of Poppea) by Claudio Monteverdi
Cesare Siepi (bass)
Сцена смерти Сенеки из оперы "L`Incorazione di Poppea" (Коронация Поппеи) К. Монтеверди
Чезаре Сьепи (бас) - Hudba
The last note here is a low D, which Siepi sings superbly. Of course he sings the rest of the piece superbly as well.
The most beautiful bass voice!!!
Siepi e Ghiaurov sono i più scuri e profondi in questo ruolo. 🤩☄☄
Voce emozionante, calorosa e cavernosa 💐: perfetta per Seneca.
Basso profondo Siepi
Che voce incredibile!
Eccezzionale...!
where's this recording from? which year?
great post, btw!
The thing you first noticed about Siepi wjhen you heard him live was how easily the sound was produced. I first heard him as Don Giovanni. I had listened to him on records and on the radio in this role for more than a decade. Oddly his Leporello had a deeper, darker voice. That was Ugo Trama. But Trama's voice was coarse. Siepi's was ultra smooth and noble. Generally Siepi always had the darkest voice on stage. But not this once.
YES! It just rolled out in easy waves. Incredible!

I've posted my own version(s) of this little arioso. This was written before there were modern key signatures so you have some choices on how to set the pitch. The score I have ends it on a D. Some other basses sing an E and some a C. Musicologists can argue.
I'm a little surprised to hear that Siepi sang it as a warm up aria. I have to already be warmed up for these kind of low notes.
Hello, do you have this version in print?
David Sánchez ^
Il piu grande!!!!!!!!!
This is great - any ideas when this was recorded?
CESARE SIEPI interpreta Seneca.
Monteverdi nello spartito avrà scritto il DO basso ma non altre lettere.Grazie se usate il nome delke note originali.
Grazie di ❤👍 della suddivusione
@music1977ify
The last note is a D2 (re1). =)
This is a longer version than what is printed in the score. Does anyone know if this longer version is in print anywhere?
Hello, did you find this version in print? Thanks
Hey, did you find it ? Could you tell me where ? :-)
Also curious lol
I found the music in the appendix of a piano vocal score on imslp

Listened to it with a tuner on - the last note here is a deep D. Yes, Siepi was capable of the C, but this is a D.
Gandalf930 No, That's Because the last note IS a D.
This aria features D, not C. Of course, Siepi had wonderful low C.
@immeralles besserwisser can you share your recordings?
Pinza had a low D (Le Cor) but most of the famous lead basses aside from Siepi didn't. Tozzi never sang below a E on stage. Ghiaurov transposed the final D in this arioso up to an E. Burchaladze and Raimondi also have weak bottoms. Ramey is the first leading bass since Siepi to have excellent low notes. Otherwise these low parts are sung by second line basses like Moll or Salminen.
Very strange piano background
It must be probe - Siepi often sang this piece before actual performance for warming up his voice.
@@grouchomarx5609 So he had an audience for his warm ups?
Recreated since no such accompaniment exists. There werent even pianos when it was composed
das ist not Italian was es language is hier
Grauenhaft!
Man hat keine Ahnung was der Mann eigentlich singt.
