In my oppinion, this Rydl´s performance is only average, nothing special. There are lots of better ones: Josef Greindl, Henri Medus, Kurt Moll (of course) and surprisingly Ezio Pinza. Rydl is not good enough to compete against them...
I don't want to say that Kurt Moll isn't a good singer, but I'm 16, I'm learning this piece, and I have a more solid D2 than he does! I did enjoy the video, though-I liked that the translation was shown.
Okay I dont know much about classical music or Mozart (was he deaf?), but I enjoyed this video. What is the (English?) name of this piece and is it a part of a larger opera? I dont know German, but I would like to get a video of this in its entirety (maybe with subtitles). Thanks for any replies.
@johnnny49 Mozart wasn't deaf, like Beethoven, but in this opera, Abduction from the Seraglio, he wants to feature the power of his bass and soprano's voices. Besides this aria, which features the low notes of the harem overseer, there is another great aria in this opera, 'martern aller arten', in the second act, which requires a very strong female soprano voice, which you can hear on a you tube video with Diana Damrau, one on the best sopranos around.
The reason Mozart wrote the low D notes--indeed, the entire role of Osmin--was because he was blessed with the brilliant basso Ludwig Fischer, who reportedly had a three-octave range of C2-C5. And I have a recording of Rydl hitting the low D convincingly enough, but he was probably younger than here, and it is not a live recording.
@YungRulaOfficial A 5-octave range that is actually usable in an opera house would indeed impressive, as would a 6 or 7. But such voices don't exist.
@BorisGodunov Actually that is in correct even better there are two people for a fact that can hit 5 and above....Mariah Carey can hit a 5 octave range this is the proof >>>>> watch?v=j_IEEu2zhZk and Adam Lopez current World Guiness record holder for a C# in the 8th octave and this is the proof>>>>>watch?v=Kdp4NHWr7G8 I thought the same thing no way I am a big classical fan believe it or not, and finding out that there are people with this talent not signing classical just startled me.
@YungRulaOfficial Two things: If you don't believe that Mariah Carey has relied on electronic enhancement of her voice during her career, you're a bit naive. And second, notice that I said "usable in an opera house." Neither Carey nor Lopez are opera singers, and neither would be capable of displaying a 5 octave range on a stage without microphone. Making noise into a microphone is a far, far different thing than singing opera live.
@BorisGodunov Yeah I know what you mean with the enhancements, pretty much anyone not singing classical or opera style music use vocal enhancements, but also though you must realize if you are a opera singer, and recording for a soundtrack you will still use vocal enhancements I don't like Carey by any means I don't even listen to her music, but I am a fan of singers, and can recognize great ones like YMA SUMAC that is one woman with a weird voice trust me she needs to be checked out.
Die vortreffliche Ausführung! Am besten welches ich hörte! Und überhaupt die Szenographie, die Kleidungen, die herrlichen innere Stimme... Aus Polen für Deutsche zu begrüßen, Österreicher und Schweizer! ;-)
O, wie will ich triumphieren, Wenn sie euch zum Richtplatz führen Und die Hälse schnüren zu; Hüpfen will ich, lachen, springen Und ein Freudenliedchen singen, Denn nun hab' ich vor euch Ruh. Schleicht nur säuberlich und leise Ihr verdammten Haremsmäuse, Unser Ohr entdeckt euch schon. Und eh' ihr uns könnt entspringen, Seht ihr euch in unsern Schlingen, Und erhaschet euren Lohn :)
Weird, I've heard his low D before in other things and it was superb. . . His other overall singing here is pretty nasty... Perhaps he was smoking crack during this show?
Interesting, I've seen him in other clips, and he sings very well, and has a good powerful voice. In comparison with other clips of O wie will ich triumphieren though, I don't feel its the best.
Beautiful dynamics!

I think that Kurt Rydl puts on a much better show with his performance than Kurt
Moll, who just stands there dressed in a sheet and hardly moves. Rydl sings
maybe not quite as well as Moll, but close enough and his movements cracking
the rope are very funny and entertaining.

That D2 at 2:40 was so low, I had to turn my volume up! :-D
Then he went right back to "OHH!" and it scared the crap out of me!
I love Mozart!

Didn't he have D2-A4?
michaelwalsh1234 2 years ago
Yes, on wikipedia is D2 - A4. I don´t know, but I think, that basso with C5 isn´t very probable thing...

D3 you wanted to say because D2 is medium
mouthmouse 4 years ago
I don't really know^^ In Germany we call it the "Großes D". I just used "D2" as it's called in "about this video"
snoopy85sp 4 years ago
the lowest D sung is a D1. The medium is a D2 and the highest is a D3 ( first note note sung)

I don't like this interpretation. I think that he sings wrong low D. And sometimes he shout more than he sing.
I heard him in other peaces and thought that he had a more powerful voice in low notes than here
