A great interpretation well in line with the Russian tradition (Sobinov/Lemeshev/Gedda). The pronunciation is very good with minor imperfections - not surprising from a Pole... I like Villazon better but Beczala is arguably closer to what Russian opera is supposed to sound like!
Netrebko is finally going to have this. Kwiecien has been singing this role for quite some years by now. Beczala's Lensky is to be eagerly awaited at the MET.
This aria sung by Piotr Beczala can be wached at "Opera - Eugene Oneguin (12/17)" at youtube. It is from Paris 2003. I like this production though the sound of the clip is not so good.
Ach jakich mamy utalentowanych spiewakow...szkoda, ze postkomuna i inni "władcy" teatrow pperowych w polsce jakoś nie widzą meijsca dla Beczaly, Kwietnia, Slawinskiego....a na "etatach" tzrymaj beztalencia
@Almirena1 Tak, prawda !! Co do beztalenici na etatach - mogłabym wiele dopisać. A do tej Pana listy dodałabym jeszcze przecudnie brzmiący głos tenorowy - czyli Dariusz PIETRZYKOWSKI w całej krasie :)
s good an interpretation of Lensky"s Aria" as you will get from aa tenor who isn't Russian. Lemeshev would be satisfied

Who is Olga?

Olga was not mentioned; probably it has not been decided yet. I would see Elina Garanca (but maybe this role would be too "small" for her).

I think this man is the tenor of our day and generation. I make no apology for liking him to absolute bits!

Wunderlich comes to mind.One of our best tenor voices. I saw LaBoheme and Lucia ,both with Netrebko in the Met and he was truly outstanding.
