Jean Borthayre et Géori Boué - Paillasse - Duo Nedda Tonio - Opéra Comique - 17 avril 1950

[baltoman24]

Borthayre was one of the greatest baritones- glorious combination of diction, power and legato- stupendous ringing tones- and Boue is excellent as Nedda, who is not a particularly sympathetic heroine. Great rendition of this powerful scena! Thank you!!

Borthayre voice is stupenda!!!!!!! Great diction ........ Very good but

He has been the great baryton at his time of Paris Opera!!! At that time the french singing was up... Now everybody héas to go to Italy.....

Of course the ricording is ugly...

[monpitt500]

He had a beautiful but no power at all

Mayny thanks for your mail.

A great mistake

[clytemnestre1]

Borthayre was THE barytone of Paris Opera Garnier . Still up to day....beautiful.

This ricoding is off of course. The way of singing is still that in fFance illustrated by Mme Geori Boué!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ugly
