Ingrid, I appreciate this immensely

[Kievest]

The terrible secret of his illness gives greater poignancy to the emotional expression and

intimacy of Maestro Bastianini's singing in this recital setting. He reveals the aching beauty

and depth of Gluck's masterpiece like peeling back the petals from a lovely flower. Whatever

vulnerabilities his voice reveals, we love him for it...it's his courageous humanity we embrace

with admiration not pity! He still moves us, inspires, amazes and delights! Magnificent

Immortal! Thank you, Ingrid.

The more I listen to Bastianini, the more I want to listen to him. Nobody else has that embracing, engulfing voice of his. Thank you, dear Ingrid, and please go on like this :)
