  • intonatissimo , bella voce e tecnica super

  • He has a nice vibrato. Unlike other natural sopranos.

  • I found myself envying that little boy; to be able to hold his ear to the chest of someone singing with a voice like that.....

  • Okay, wow. I'm a girl, and I envy his voice so much. Wow, how does he do it? Amazing. Thanks for posting.

  • He's a male soprano. His larnyx and vocal chords did not develop during puberty due to hormonal complications. It's not a trick, nor is it anything you could replicate, unfortunately.

  • So happy that I stumbled onto this. His voice is pure majic. I hope to find more recordings than the Mayerbeer. This aria is so charming.

  • Maniacici maybe the closest singer to a true Castrato singer. Even better his vocal ability is natural and not from surgery or other methods.

  • He's way better than a castrato or endocrine countertenor. He's got a lot more tonal richness; those guys sounded like ringtones.

  • Wow. It's cause he can really sing those couluratura lines without pushing his voice. He sounds natural. It's a true gift with a voice so rare.

  • How can you say that when no one living has heard any of the great ones? There is only the primitive recordings of Moreschi. Maniaci uses more vibrato like a modern singer, sounding like a mezzo, in fact in places the vibrato is a little too much.

  • I love his voice! Gah!

    Em

  • Your voice is very beautiful...many compliments

  • In case you have any plans to upload some more of this I would recommend the finale of Act 2, he hits a very low note there (after saving the sultan's life), it should give people better idea about his vocal range and silence those who say that he doesn't use his chest voice (check the latest comments for the 'Chi perde un momento' video).

  • Many thanks for the suggestion. I'll be uploading a few more sections as soon as I have time.

  • I've uploaded the section you suggested.

  • Sound seems to be fine now, I can hear it fine with headphones. Thank you for the extra time you spent re-uploading this.

  • You're welcome. Thank you for the feedback.
