A fine voice and easy top...but i think it is too open through the passaggio and loses nobility and vulnerability...too aggressive. a little more turn and cover on the top would make it smooth and velvety.
I had an opportunity sing with Todd this past November 2008 in Manitoba Opera's production of Il Trovatore, and Todd was Count di Luna (I was the old gypsy). Absolute 100% class, and what a voice. As a fellow baritone, I would love to study with him, great artistry.
Bravo, Todd...you sound great! I'm grateful someone posted this of you so those of us who've wanted to hear you finally can. You'll always be my favorite Fagan. A. Dodger79
PS -You also make a persuasive case for the return of the cape.
My, what legs!...But that's only the tip of the iceberg. This man owns the role of Count Di Luna. My ears actually buzz even while hearing his high notes over my rinky-dinky laptop speakiers! Todd is a true Verdi baritone to be highly reckoned with. Bravississimo!
Beautiful voice!

What a lovely aria, one of those fabulous baritone arias. Nicely done. Would like to hear him in person.
