Il viaggio a Reims - Samuel Ramey as Lord Sidney sings the English hymn

[bodiloto]

Questi urli oggigiorno si chiamano 'canto'.

@bodiloto Ma mi piace veramente:-). Lo chiamo esattamente "canto". Tastes differ.

No comment:-).

Magnífico, me recuerda al Sr. Faílde haciendo su famoso redoble.

Amazing!!! Dara is the comedian and Ramey is THE VOICE! I'm still laughing

[serenaluce]

Very beautiful rich voice! Wonderfully sung and very agile for a bass! Bravo!

[jewelmarkess]

Love it totally. Ramey is so wonderful.

And I see that someone else already said the same thing about having a "Love" button instead of a "Like" button!

[arpeggio1358]

I simply love this! It's another of those videos where you wish there was a "Love" button instead of just a "Like" button.

[serenaluce]

@arpeggio1358 I agree. I just "Love" it too:-)

[ledonciccio]

Funny he chose to sing the second version of the final cadence of the aria "infelice e tuo credevi" (ernani verdi)

Is this performance of the entire opera available on DVD or video? I'd love to have a copy.

@bassfanne45

Everyone would love to! :( But it was only a telecast. I think it's a crime before the world culture not to release jewels of performances like this one.

[bassfanne45]

@Arashi110 I agree with you completely. I also wish that the Met had videotaped the 1984 Rinaldo with Ramey, but alas they didn't.  If I could go back through time and see one production, it would be that one.

[WotansSpeer]

There is no better bass!! Bravo!!

[arpeggio1358]

@WotansSpeer Simply the most splendid bass ever!

[bassfanne45]

Can I only "like" this video? there should be a choice that says "love" rather than just like or dislike. This is amazing!!! Bravo Sam!!!!!!!!!

[redhead529]

And this shows why Sam Ramey is the greatest Rossini bass of the 20th Century!

Beautiful, sheer and utter beauty!
