[TheRj55]

Mmmmmm my 2 favourite singers together......gorgeous voices and both soooo handsome in their own way.

[azgma3]

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.

[CommodusSPQR]

Just beautiful - musical perfection.

[hairyeahyeah]

Simply stunning! My fav duet ever and Alfie just makes it even better!

[azgma3]

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.

[lobby5t]

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 mafgificent voice. Alfie is magnificent too. I envy all of you in the UK who at least have to chance to see these artists!

[oldbutbeautiful]

@lobby5t I also like his duet with Bocelli on "Au Fond"

[Toranut97]

Wow. Wowie wow wow WOW! Amazing video, feel like I found a hidden treasure - two of my all time favorite singers, how wonderful!!!

[tawwetina]

absolute BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can only 3000 people have watched this?

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.

[csophie]

wow, ..beautiful

Does anyone kow how tall is Bryn Terfel? Alfie Boe is about 5`10"

[chrismat47]

SO-O-O beautiful it brings tears to my eyes and goose

flesh down my neck and arms

it wasexquiste ------- like melting diamonds !!!!

[ronlweasley]

I was there! What a treat that was. Brought a tear to my eye at the end.

[finolamulcahy]

@ronlweasley That must have been an amazing experience. I am so jealous

[bumonaseat]

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.)

[Promise01]

this is just so beautiful.

[floosiesusie]

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

[FieldHockeyGoalie007]

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!!!

[MasterIsh91]

I saw him in The Pearl Fishers last year, such a wonderful performer :)

[Meristhegeek]

For a little guy, Alfie has a big voice just wonderful

[MasterIsh91]

@Meristhegeek not sure whether Alfie is little or Bryn Terfel just makes him look small haha

[charliegirl671]

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
