[icickel]

I kinda want him to do my college auditions for me. XD

[lyradeara]

thank you for your gift of music! I could listen to you sing for hours. It makes me grateful for being a musician. :)

[Spanglefeather]

I think thats Tony Pappano on the paino

[reubenwalker22]

Little Horses is a masterful performance.

[BaritonePierce]

Beautiful singing.

[pegasus1747]

Ishis name not Hanson?

[DJGemesi]

@pegasus1747 Hampson :)

[GoldFich831]

My last name is Hampson! Buuuuut no relation what so ever

[uniqueattack]

can't hear his "piano" dynamic and did he go to the Music School of Nostril Singing?

[dravidwake]

@uniqueattack what a petty comment. I don't think he is nasal at all. I suppose you can do better?

[greenethump3]

@uniqueattack It's called resonance, homes. And he seems to be channeling the English school of singing.

...But it's whatevs.

"The Art Song Is Dying" ? Naaah! Not with Thomas Hapson around. BTW, Aaron Copland's "Old American Songs" performed by Mr. Hampson at the New Years Eve Gala with NY Philharmonics, were as usually flawless.

Hampson and Pappano...a great team!

[pudercukurs]

@operacat1 indeed!

[schmup53]

His technique has always been solid. It really allows him to do wonderful interpretations of these songs.

[bdownie]

yes, fantastic singing. It's just a little weird seeing his face THAT close, esp. when he's singing for a packed house, not for a camera :)

Copland's At the River: a real pearl.
