Wonderful tribute - thanks for making and uploading it. The Covent Garden Rosenkavalier is with Soile Isokoski, Sophie Koch, Lucy Crowe and Peter Rose. The Met one (which will bee filmed - hurrah-:) is with Renee Fleming, Susan Graham, Christine Schafer and Kristinn Sigmundsson.
Sir T. Allen is going to do Rosenkavalier?? Ochs von Lerchenau?? In German (with Viennese accent)??? I can't imagine that at all... I hope I'll get to see a bit of it on yt.
I believe he's going to play Faninal in Rosenkavalier and I think it should be in German (though I'm not sure). The only other time I know he did R. Strauss was the Count in Capriccio in 1991.
That is a wonderful choice of snippets! Thank you.
The Rosenkavalier he's doing at the Met in January 2010 will be a Met HD transmission, so you'll soon have a new role to add to that impressive gallery of characters!
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the collection of snippets...it was quite difficult to select the ones to put in and decide whether it was representative of his versatility as a singer.
I'm looking forward to 'Rosenkavalier' (though to be honest, I'm not familiar with R. Strauss's operas). I believe the one he's going to do at the ROH this December is the first one he's ever done but the Met one should be great too. I'm not sure though if I'll be able to see considering where I live!
Magnificent.
I can't say enough for Sir Tom, although I try in these comments! He's made my knees weak for about twenty years or so. ;)

Ah, right, Faninal! That's only a rather small part, but a funny one. This is a wonderful opera. I'll try to find out who the other singers are...
