5:28 "Dunque?" - "All'opera" - "Andiam" - "Da bravo"...."Oooooh....il meglio mi scordavo, il meglio mi scordavo..."

the best transition ever

[alicearth]

all'idea di quel metallo, portentoso onnipossente...

[TaedetMeVitae]

Saw this Almaviva live in Milan. Amazing! *.*

[piergp]

Brillante!

[manricoxx]

bellissimo duetto, baritono tra i migliori in circolazione

[MsVickyviana]

When they sing in duet it sounds absolutely breathtaking.

[AislinKageno]

This Almaviva is fantastic!

[kfsdoe]

The baritone is great!!Who says "not bad"?Pietro Spagnoli is probably the best baritone of his generation,and his acting his excellent too.

[babyfairy]

I agree. I heard his Figaro in London, and the audience in ROH loved his Figaro, including myself.

[xav71176]

Never heard Figaro sung by a tenor before lol

interesting anyway

[KatherineXIX]

He never sounded like a tenor to me, except on his "numero quindici" Fs. Weird!

[Falstaff85]

Placido Domingo sings Figaro on one of his recordings

[piratzrule]

@Falstaff85 domingo used to be a high baritone. He's sung everything!

[aglobackwards]

I like it! Even a lot! :)

And I didn't even notice it being "an off night"...

But I complitely agree about not comparing it to P&W, there's just no point.

Besides, tastes and fashions change over time!

[kgus123]

Good heavens, if we compare every singer to Prey or Wunderlich then we'll never be satisfied. Besides, live performances should be cut a little slack -- these two are good singers (very good in Florez's case) having an off night. Don't go crazy over it.

[CallieToo]

I think this is some increadible duet with two fantastic singers

[spektro999]

increible juan diego flores!! dando la cara x el Peru! xD y esta opera igual de increible!

[singinginachurch]

Great duet!!!!

Placido Domingo once sang both parts.

[beezoid27]

yay for tenor-baritone duets! I love their interpretation in this one. Juan Diego is leggero as ever and the baritone was overall pretty good.

[MPhk]

Its the duet between the Count and Figaro from the opera "Il barbiere di Siviglia" by Gioacchino Rossini.

[aglobackwards]

This duet is so charming:D nine and a half minute of great singning, I enjoyed every bit of it:) Florez has a such wonderful "friendly" voice and this role sure suits him very very well:) And the baritone is not that bad, come on!;D first of all he has a very pleasant timbre and makes Figaro a very human and modern character, which I don't think is bad at all:)

[LixSeven]

Part of which opera is it?

[beezoid27]

Rossini's Il Barbiere di Siviglia (the barber of seville)

[babyfairy]

Well, he is different type from somebody like Bastianini, whom I love also... but this is why I called him "MODERN" in both good and bad sense.

[AZimmer289]

A delicious duet and, for me, a highlight of the opera.

[babyfairy]

Barbiere has so many "highlights", but certainly, this is one of them for me, too^^.

[babyfairy]

You are welcome!

[Carson1028]

I thoroughly enjoyed this performance. Loved it!  Thanks for sharing.

[BeniaminoGigli]

Florez is good,the baritone is not bad.
