5 Stars for the singers, but this copy is crap I'm sorry. Too bad the sound and video aren't smoother because the performance looks unimpeachable. 4 Stars
How touching to see this masterpiece of European culture performed at such a level of excellence! They are impeccable performers. I'll immediately dig out the works of these two singers. As a french native... their pronunciation is amazing.
I think is wonderful rendition!!!!Congratulations and thanks for posting this jewel!!!!Very nice but I think Kraus/McDaniel maybe the best!!!!But you are great!!!!!
This is an amazing rendition - the baritone is exceptional. You both sing with so much passion and integrity, it send me into a trance of fixation at your amazing talent. The conductor also conveyed his emotions aptly. This was spectacular - well done!
Yea u know in fact the baritone now is the best Chinese Baritone in the world. He got the 1st prize in 1997 Domingo Opera competition, even Domingo said he is the best baritone he has ever heard.
Awesome! I'm french, and I find this performance (especially the baritone's) amazing! Voice, diction, expressivity... I'm no sur that french singers could sing in chinese so well!
Tant qu'on travaille :-) Je suis Chinois et il parait -- selon les autres -- que je n'ai presque pas d'accent. "Presque pas", dommage :)
J'adore le baritone. Quant au tenor,je prefere l'interpretation par Kraus (en duet avec McDaniel). Alagna n'est pas a la hauteur. Il a une voix trop "dure" pour ce duet.
I enjoyed the performance very much..nice blend with the 2 voices . A beautiful piece and Great Opera

廖昌永的法语无可挑剔。本人在法国呆过12年,应当有点发言权。李建林声音和技术都好,法语则拖后腿。当然发音不是全部,Alagna是法国人,但他的版本绝对不是最好的。个人意见,最好的是Kraus和McDaniel的,而且Kraus的尾音e非常地道。
楼下2条法语留言都是赞赏,不可置信。

¡Coño! Parece que los japoneses se lo montan estupendamente. Nunca habia pensado que pudiesen representar tan fielmente "Les Pêcheurs de Perles".
Exelente, en mi opinion. La orquesta un pelin rapida pero muy buena, si señor, sencillamente magnifica.

Nice to see Liao's performance on Youtube. Thanks s006221.
By the way, there are typos on your intro: their names are Romanized as Li Jian-lin and Liao Chang-yong.

Liao Chang-yong, rien a dire. Meme mieux que Alagna, a mon avis.

廖昌永很不容易的,他是个农村里走出来的孩,在他上大学前表演歌剧对于他来说,简直是不可能的.我很很喜欢他,我喝他见过两次面,可是他根本不记得我,朋友说我和他长的非常像,我要唱的像他样棒!!窦学攀

Such a powerful rendition of Bizet's classic. I agree with others who have stated this is just an awesome duo. Can you post more of this concert??
