Richard Croft - Il tuo sangue, ed il tuo zelo

[Avedissalitis]

Your blood, and your eagerness

For now daughter, and for Astrea [Justice]

Now struggle within you.

But show the world and heaven

That by punishing your guilty daughter

You are no longer a father: you are a King.

wonderful



[bially5]

Schön gesungen, tolle Kolloraturen, obgleich bei 3:11 etwas übertrieben und missglückt (weniger ist manchmal doch mehr)

[hyacynthus]

Gorgeous performance from Amsterdam! Podleś and Croft. Two delicacies in one evening.

[jokerab112]

HAAAAAAA. this is so good that's it's making me laugh!

who knew such coloratura?!

[sebastien1chartry]

Yes, coloratura tenor! :)

[Himmelsfunken]

Einfach unglaublich.... Er macht sich so rar in Europa - sehr schade, er ist wunderbar!

[lechanteur88]

whoah...

[forallyouknow]

This aria is a testament to Richard Croft's splendid technique: after 20 years of singing, his powers are by no means diminished, and he sings fioritura with the same even timbre and agile mastery as he did back in the day.

[encoreandbravo]

Amazing! Richard Croft has a full-bodied and yet agile voice. Tenor coloratura at its best.

[sebastien1chartry]

Yes, coloratura tenor! :)

10000000/10

[lpw0021]

I'm lucky enough to coach with Mr. Croft. He's a BEAST! Listen to that coloratura! BRAVO

5/5

[jokerab112]

where do you coach with him?

[gabohuaroc]

damn, why didn't I find this before?

[BelCantoGranny]

Il tuo sangue, ed il tuo zelo, per la figlia,

e per astrea gran contrasto or fanno in te.

Ma tu mostra al mondo, al cielo,

ch'in punir la figlia rea non sei padre, essendo Re.

I'm also looking forward to seeing/hearing Croft in San Francisco.

I was introduced to Croft this summer and he's been my favorite tenor ever since. What a beast =)

[fatbaldcunt]

My God, what a totally masculine tenor voice. It oozes testosterone, sweaty jock straps, and hot horny male animale on heat. But at the same time it's exquisitely beautiful, ravishing, sexuctive and captivating as well. In other words that unique combination of male and female that is always found in the true STAR

[sharky123]

Another example of why this guy has been my favorite tenor for 20 years! Bravo, Richard & grazie, GiovanniCarestini!

[birgitnilsson]

Amazing in every sense

[contessabrilliante]

ABSOLUTELY!

[GiovanniCarestini]

I'm going to San Francisco to watch this for my birthday. I hope Croft does the high D like he does here. You're absolutely right, it is a fabulous cast.
