The "si" at 1:24 is especially lovely.

It's tough for a bass to sing the F on an e vowel. He does OK. Still better is Siepi at this. Pape is a Basso Cantante.

@WhiteProfondo his low notes in Verdi're Requiem under Pappano are great. Strongly recommend it :)

I have troubles to picture him as Figaro... He is more a Boris G. or a Mefistofelès IMHO. This being said, I have no problem with his singing here!

He is definitely a basso, not a basso profondo, but a basso cantabile, he has de color of a basso but a very agile and flexble voice, and that also has lots to do with the technique he uses for singing, anyways, he is a basso.
Love how he sings this song !

Pape is considered a bass but his voice is by no means deeper than George London who is considered a bass-baritone. Why?

I think you're confusing "deep" with "dark".....

I am surprised how easily he hits the "F".
Erwin Schrott has to watch it if Renee Pape decides to change back to bass-baritone arias !
First-rate stuff, quite!
