It is pretty hard to imagine from the many recording of DH how he could be said to have a small voice? Its possible that his voice does not carry when the Met orchestra is blasting away. But on the other hand the Met is known to be a voice breaking stage. The number of singers I know of who have ruined their voice singing at the Met...
@asiansarecool It's not that his voice is small. When he was younger, his voice was much richer in color and much larger (meaning it carried more). The reason you cannot hear him over an orchestra is because he has decided to take a technical route which places his voice in his throat. Voice in the throat = no carrying power. There is no way to get the voice to "cut" through to the back of the house let alone the orchestra when the voice is stuck in the throat.
@asiansarecool - I agree . I was surprised to hear how relatively small his voice was to the other singers, when I saw him in Trovatore. He rocked it, though.
Unfortunately his voice is small, he's bearly audible through orchestra;) Did hear him live it's like you are listening simphonia, he's a recording artist:)
That's not exactly true. I have heard him a number of times at the Metropolitan and I was sitting or standing in the upper balcony. There the blend of sound is the best in the house (why they don't charge more for sitting there, I don't know). True, his voice is not large, but it has the right ping and resonance to do the job.
Me ha gustado mucho su interpretación. Le invito a que escuche la mía. Ponga "chittolo" en el youtube y podrá acceder a todas mis audiciones. Un saludo.
Bravo D! (You may want to get out more then tenor lovers.) Leo Nucci did a beautiful album on Decca of Neopolitan art songs. Ruffo & many other Baritiones sang this.This music is for everyone.
Although a great baritone with lots of talent and beautiful voice, this is not the right repertoire for his tessitura. Should stick to Russian, German and French repertoire. I have never heard Catari (Core' ngrato) sung by any one other than lyric tenors.
ahh! Core 'ngrato is a tenor's song! light, lyric, or dramatic, I've got recordings Delmonaco and Corelli with this song, and both are stunning renditions.
Bravo!!!

Is this transposed down. Last note sounds like Ab rather than Bb.

He is so beautiful though, and has such passion.... I forgive his not so loud (but perfectly tuned) voice.

I've seen him at the MET several times mostly in Verdi roles and once live in concert with orchestra and choir.
I could not for the life of me hear him! It's a beautiful voice--fantastic for recording in a studio, but he's has such a SMALL VOICE!

As a Baritone, I am so tired to sing before those people who only want to listen to "cannon" but ignore other aspects of one's voice.

@cyeh2 we're also tired of baritones who think they can excite the masses like tenors do. Have a nice day.

He has the most beautiful(& my favourite) baritone voice in the opera-world and as hightenor123 rightly said, this IS a gorgeous rendition.

I heard Core'ngrato by Ettore Bastianini and baritones are great in Neapolitan songs.
I love DH's Neapolitans.

DH pulls it off nicely - it works. Let him sing it.
Your argument is no different than saying a Schubert lieder should be sung only by, say, a tenor. That is just not so.
