well i have watched this video several times n i think its a great performance. bravo..........Furlanetto. Sbani Mwelase a young South African baritone
I saw this production twice and interviewed Mr. Furlanetto. He was so amazing, I loved him as Leporello and enjoyed him as the Don. I LOVE this song, Best.
After watching this clip on loop for the last hour I went on amazon and bought the opera on dvd. I hope I got the right one. It was only $10. In my excitement of getting the dvd though I fear I'll be watching this clip another 1000 times as I wait for it in the mail :P
Most definitely, my favourite Leporello. My untrained ear cannot appreciate the voice in full, but the acting is superb, really brings out the comicality of the scene. Bravo! :)
Normally I dislike von Karajan's tempi, but this works, and better, the Andante-ish pace lets Ferruccio showcase his expressiveness and musicality. He is not only cute and funny, but a *fine* musical interpreter of Mozart.
I just love him as Leporello. He sings and acts so well! I love his expression at the beginning, when he starts singing "Madamina, il catalogo e questo..." So funny! :D
The laughing instruments while he's reading the numbers of the Don's conquests is such subtle Genius for such an early time. Nice compliment to his wife Constanza with "nella bruna, la Constanza" with a flourish at 3:00.
Voce meravigliosa del Furlanetto... ma si osservi con attenzione l'espressione a 32 secondi (anche a seguire...): "Madamina, il catalogo è questo..." Stupendamente enfantico! Eccezionale!!!
wow il miglior Leporello che abbia sentito fino adesso! Grande Furlanetto!!! Se nn sbaglio ha anche interpretato Figaro nelle "Nozze", e Dawn Upshaw era Susanna. Stupenda anche quella scena. Dateci un'occhiata !!
Furlanetto - znakomity bas baryton (dla mnie najlepszy Leporello jakiego kiedykolwiek widziałam, szczególnie w świetnej w inscenizacji Zefirellego),do tego obdarzony talentem aktorskim. Brawo!
One of the best Leporellos ever. Just love his role in this production. He has a natural grace and sense of humour that so many others that acted as Leporello didn't have. I've watched this over and over trough the years and always have fun and good laughs.
LOVE him! I adore how he moves his head and kind of dances around to the orchesral part, and he completely embodies Leporello. I really like Van Dam's Leporello as well, but I think Furlanetto owns it.

bassfanne45 1 year ago 2
Furlanetto should have done stand-up comedy when he was younger. He'd have been a natural with a face like that.
The funny thing about this scene is the way Leporello is so completely ignorant of Donna Elvira's feelings and just keeps on rubbing it in.
