    I have to apologize about the quality of this video. The original recorded video is 720x480 not HD 1080p
    I converted it to try a 1080p upload to youtube ^^
    (Sorry no English subs in this video)

    This is a very difficult aria to sing in the first place...Especially the last vincerò, you have to nail that with beyond perferction. And this guy KILLED IT!!!!! One of the BEST I've ever seen an ameture do. Nessun Dorma is my number one Aria and not many can sing this. His singing made me cry, it moved me so much.

      @nanborg65 Před 3 lety +6

      @@edwinmalachy It bothers me a lot more that his stentorian high-B had almost no vibrato whatsoever. Lack of a full, healthy vibrato very often gives the impression of notes being under pitch. My praise of this singer, in any case, was based more on his voice type and his musicality (both impressive) than it was on his technique (needs some work) or this particular performance. Thank you for your response!

      @nanborg65 Před 3 lety +3

      @@SuperDen1965 Why? He can't sing this aria passably. He is a pop tenor with a small, skinny, throaty voice--completely the wrong voice type for this piece. Well, I guess you're not really well-versed in opera, so you don't know the difference yet. But keep listening to more real tenors doing this piece and you will hear amazing things.

    Every choir member comes across natural talents that go unrecognized. We had 2 'ringers' show up for Christmas rehearsal and we were rehearsing "Messiah." Before the evening rehearsal was finished we discovered there was a bass member who sang the tenor part as well! This exceptional discovery, Martin Hurkens, is so wonderful to emerge to acclaim so deserving. You can postpone your dream, raise a family, and re-emerge.

      +MrCheccobianconero secondo me: bene, intonato, potente. Ma la dizione è da rivedere. Gli anglosassoni devono assolutamente evitare di raddoppiare le erre quando cantano in Italiano. E' fastidioso. Per il resto, bravissimo !
      IMHO :well tuned, powerful. But the term is to be reviewed. The Anglo-Saxons must absolutely avoid duplication of R letters when they sing in Italian. It 'annoying. For the rest, very good!

      +Antonello D'Amico Nel cantato quando si fa pausa sulla "r" in una parola inevitabilmente la raddoppi. Cmq in un solo punto l'ha raddoppiata riascoltandolo in "...d'amore" senza che ci fosse la pausa però confermo che, da parte di un non italofono, è stato il più bravo in assoluto. D'altronde chi in Italia ha una dizione perfetta delle parole? Solo professionisti come attori, radiofonisti, giornalisti, cantanti etc.

    • @damomostudio

      Non è proprio così, chi studia canto Lirico studia perfettamente dizione, ed anche arte teatrale. In Italia i Conservatori di Musica sono strutturati per il "solismo", sia a livello lirico che strumentale. Mancano, viceversa, performance sulla musica di insieme.
