Tenor Daniil Shtoda as Alfredo in 'La Traviata', Act II

[liuboviza1ify]

Привет из Санкт-Петербурга! Я счастлива тем что слушаю его в Мариинском театре, а также в филармонии и на других сценах!!!

[robmanrico]

Wonderful singing

[raythespian]

He has the notes but not the style.

[TenoreMKD]

This is great!!! Bravo!!!

[sionnachy]

does anyone have a vid of him singing E Lucevan Le Stelle?

[enricodicapri]

i think it doesn´t exist souch a thing. it´s not his repertoire.

[willyum1000]

if any of you had heard shtoda's earlier cd of russian love songs, in which he sang so sensitively, so poetically & so lyrically, will be dissappointed that he has become just another 'can belto' singer who can only sing everything fortissimo...what a waste of a voice!!

[kkm3000]

That is bullcrap! You can´t compare singing Verdi, where he must sing over an Orchestra VS singing Tchaikovsky over a pianoforte!

[willyum1000]

you seem to assume verdi is all about bellowing - i wonder if anyone agrees with you? anyway, to educate you a little more about shtoda, whom i have been following since he began: listen to his 2000 cd of russian songs & then compare with his 2005 cd of russian opera arias: you will see one is poetic, sensitive & lyrical, the other..well just plain boring, particularly the lensky arioso, which demands intimate moments of hushed pianissimo. shtoda just wont or cant do that any more. very sad...

[EnricoAtHome]

I agree with Willyum1000. I have not heard the 2000 recordings he refers to, but it is a pity that a singer with such a respiration capacity and sound capabilities, just stands there singing without acting (both with voice and face). I mean he could be singing anything; as my teacher would say "singing is the art of moving, not of astonishing"

BRAVO TENORE!!!

[Webarton]

He's can't keep singing like this after 35, he's gonna have to find another way. Oh well, enjoy the voice while it last

=X

[Pertile23]

You're 20....and you know what you can't do after 35? hmmmm Why make a comment like that anyway? Try being more supportive of your colleages. Glad that more people like you weren't there to discourage Caruso, Del Monaco and Corelli.....you know, those that actually sang WITH VOICE!!! Who knows, maybe there were people doing the same thing like you, but thank God they didn't listen.

[Webarton]

Not everyone quits when they're 40, but I just meant that they will have to find another way... and many of the famous singers did! Kraus for example xD

Please, dont tell me about Corelli and his short career =X

Also, Im not discouraging! Im just pointing out what I hear, maybe somehow he will see the comment and search for the better way at a younger age, so he can retain his voice longer.

Im helping if anything =X

[tomasjuhasz]

Bravo tenore!!!

[wiswert]

Даниил-это тот человек,который красиво поет

[HennesMM]

With which it can be said, there is not only Carrera Domingos etc. It gives a very wide repertoire of good tenors. However, Mario L was the biggest.

[1Ooppera]

He is great, and i think his voicetype was exactly in Verdis mind when he write Alfredos role. It is a role which needs both, lyric approach and dramatic staying power. Thats how i do not understand why some tenors with more leggero voice even sings it nowadays. It is not listed in lirico-spintos role gategory, only lyric, which of course can be very flexible voicegategory from Mozart to Rodolfo.

[lus24]

absolutely superb!!!

Huge, beautiful voice

well done daniil
