I heard this concert,maybe,more than 10 years ago on NHK-FM. Later it was released by NAXOS titled "Italian and French Opera Arias",however,the CD excluded the most important song of which name unfortunately I have not remembered accurately.According to the Japanese name translated it was "The most wonderful place". Is there anyone who knows the right name of this song ?

@rabbit055jp Hi there, I can certainly give you the original Slovak translation, which is "Najkrajsi kut v sirom svete." While this might not help you if you don't speak that language, it can help you find it online because some CDs keep the original names of the songs. This song was composed by a Slovak; therefore, you might be able to find it as it is. Also this song was one of the favorite of Mr. Dvorsky repertoire during his concert days.

@PragueImport Thanks for the response.However I think I made a mistake.I should have asked the name of the song which means in English "The most wonderful place in the world" This song "E lucevan le stelle" composed by Jacomo Puccini in his opera "Tosca" is one of the most popular Aria in the world which no one know this name at least they are classical music fans,especilly Arias in Opera.

@rabbit055jp Hi, the Japanese transled is not quite correct because original name of this song is "Pieseň o rodnej zemi (The Song about My Homeland)" and people know this song as "Najkrajší kút v šírom svete (The most wonderful place in wide world) " what is the first verse line this song.

[rabbit055jp]

@Freddie99svk Thank you for the more accurate information about the song I would like to know.Unfortunately I now nothing about Slovak however,the first verse line sounds like "Najikrasi sirom svete........" . Sometimes Japanese translations reflect the feeling from the song rather than their original names which might have led me to made a mistake.Anyway,the song Mr.Dvorsky sang at the concert has best moved me.........

[MegaCardel]

muy buena version esta de Dvorsky

[maloneysandwich]

Bravo!

[GREATWHITEish]

His beard looks like Pavarotti's.....and that's where the similarity ENDS!

[LordoftheTrapdoors]

@GREATWHITEish I don't understand what you mean. You don't like him? I think in this aria he is better than Pavarotti (of course, in his repertory, Pavarotti is better!)

[zagot27]

excellent tenor.

[username14657]

His eyes are singing too... an actor as well as a musician..

[bodiloto]

dal vivo aveva una bellissima voce,ma non per questo repertorio .

[LordoftheTrapdoors]

@bodiloto Qual'è secondo te il suo repertorio? Io l'ho ascoltato solo su disco, ma mi sembra un lirico puro tendente allo spinto. In questo brano personalmente lo trovo magnifico.

[bodiloto]

@LordoftheTrapdoors dal vivo Dvorsky nel repertorio lirico leggero / Edgardo,Il Duca di Mantova,Nemorino ecc.../ quando era giovane aveva voce piu bella da Pavarotti,Kraus...ma cantava con la bellezza della sua voce,aveva poca tecnica.Lo stesso Dvorsky quando é venuto in Italia lo hánno costretto di cantare repertorio poco adatto alla sua voce e cosi gli hánno rovinato la voce. Aveva una dolcezza naturale nella sua voce,aveva un magnifico colore...era lirico leggero proprio come Pavarotti.

[paradoxicus]

Si,es un tenor pero posiblemente por su propia lengua le falta el acento timbrico,algo mas agudo,deseable o ,acaso,sea una falta de recurso estilistico.Aun asi muy bueno.

[moorfan1]

I agree...not baritonal. Pure tenor!

[Pawelp]

Yup.

[rafitash]

fantastik

[OPSTBSTL76]

Very baritonal

[equimentor]

Magnifica,profunda y excelente interpretacion!!!

[Gerardeus]

En mi opinión, es una excelente interpretación. Muy buena voz, muy preciso y muy musical, sin embargo creo que vocalmente abre mucho posiblemente por su nato acento eslovaco, pero de ahí en fuera, sobre todo en sus agudos se luce espléndidamente su voz.

[tinca68]

Bravooooooooo!!!!Splendida interpretazione!

[ozomerzon]

A very nice voice. He was unknown to me and I will for sure hear more from him.
