however much i love alfie... his french is pretty poor.. but so helpful when it comes to others.. and i am lucky enough to have met him through my mother diana montague ..
Alfie Boe and Bryn Terfel have such beautiful voices and they both sing a wide range of music. I wonder if a CD could be made showcasing their voices together and alone. The world's greatest tenor and the world's greatest baritone: Together.
I've listened/watched youtubes of Bryn Terfel doing the Pearl Fishers duet with at least four or five other tenors - Alfie Boe is by far the best match and foil to Terfel's magificent voice. Alfie is magnificent too. I envy all of you in the UK who at least have to chance to see these artists!

Bryn Terfel is 6' 4" tall. Like Alfie Boe, his voice is getting richer and darker with age (he's only about 8 yrs older than Alfie, and, he, too, has recorded albums of musical theater songs, as well as folk songs from his native Wales, in addition to his acclaimed opera discs). I love how the different timbres in their voices blend so well together. As FHG007 notes below, I, too, can hear the "difference" tone that results from their being so in tune w/each other.
Spine-tingling singing for sure but, even though Melvyn Bragg didn't seem to notice, there was actually another "voice" with the duettists, the excellent pianist Jocelyn Freeman. (Apologies to the page-turner, whose identity I don't know.)
What a great talent Alfie Boe is, in interviews he always comes across so charming, good looking, smart dresser and apparantly a good cook, lucky Mrs Alfie Boe
If you've ever played a duet before on an instrument, and you were perfectly in pitch with your partner, you could hear a third note in the sound of the two combined...between Boe and Terfel, we get this third pitch many times, especially from 3:55 to 4:01...Stunning!!!
Truly magnificent …………….. Alfie sings with such passion and makes me melt each time I hear him perform … beautiful Alfie x He was fantastic in La Boheme and incredible in Les Miserables …. His voice, smile and personality are addictive x x so much love for Alfie

I have recently become a fan of all things Alfie. BUT I have always loved Bryn Terfel and have several of his CDS. This is really a treat to hear.
