@bodiloto Di nuovo hai completamente ragione.Una nuova classificazione di tenori- tenore zanzara pecorina. Un po piu leggiero del tenore pamingo ma con acuti, anche se strillati. Come volume poco differenza. Seconda la critica e la voce piu desiderata. A l'oppasto abbiamo il tenore Giacominicorellidelmonachiano con volume, voce brunita, acuti e fraseggio scolpito. Questo tipo di voce di tenore e quasi estinto salvo qualche caso come Armiliato, Berti, Villazon, Kaufmann!!! ahime!.
IF you compares both vibrating and singing in the last high C, between pav and JDF it sounds very similar, both in the same note, and keeping it very well, dont you think pals?....
più l'ascolto e più mi piace... Ogni paragonre è superfluo, il "big" peruviano con la sua giovane età maturerà vieppiù e il suo canto in limpido idioma farà sempre più risuonare questi impareggiabili acuti naturali. Viva Juand Diego e regalaci ancora i "tuoi do di petto" Gracias !
IMPECABLE MAESTRO!! el sucesor de Pavarotti sin lugar a dudas a pesar de q muchos cantantes liricosde ducha aqui osan en negar algo q el mismo Pavarotti dijo, pero claro ellos son mas famosos q Pavarotti. Si o dijo Pavarotti lo q digan los demas son puras babas a menos q como ya dije sean mas famosos q Pavarotti .Pero asi es la Envidia signo de fracaso e invalidez mental..
@wuakero2k aunque lo ha hecho muy bien.. a nivel de tiempo se le adelanto 4 tiempos en el ultimo Do5 lo hizo mejor en el opera royal house... ahi fue ekl tiempo perfecto y la entrada como decia la partitura.
.... “As her shy, knobbly-kneed boyfriend Tonio, Juan Diego Flórez returned to wow us with those famous top Cs and pure, unsullied vocal gymnastics. Only Pavarotti, in living memory, could make it all sound so similarly effortless...”
Yes folks, let's put aside all the waste-of-time comparisons. ANY man who trains his tenor voice to this level is worthy of all the praise that can be given. Whatever Mr. Florez does with the rest of his career, he can be very, very proud of this of DEFINITIVE bel canto performance!
And, I am glad the costumer did a fine job making him look good here, too. (Didn't make him look 12 years old, or like a "cupcake", as in some other YouTube posts of JDF performances!). :-)
Florez is without doubt a lirico-leggaro tenor sometimes refered to"Tenore De Grazia"this voice is the highest operatic voice Pavarotti was indeed a lyric tenor the next type of voice then comes spinto,dramatic,helden so just a different voice florez is a wonderful leggaro tenor one of the best in my opinion currently singing
si la envidia fuera dinero Juan Diego seria uno de los hombres mas ricos del mundo....BRAVO JUAN DIEGO!!!. trajiste nuevamente el bel canto a este siglo
Per criticare Florez in "Fille" le cose sono due: o si detrattori spietati dello stesso per motivi personali, o non si ha la più pallida idea di cosa sia la lirica. E' un'esecuzione da annali.
Intercetto poco il genere, ma per quel che ne so orrendo e insopportabile mi sembrano termini inappropriati. Se l'intonazione di JDF non va, cosa si deve dire di ben altri e celebrati interpreti? Quanto alla voce non è certo la Bellucci, ma ha personalità, vale a dire la voce si distingue immediatamente. La voce è alta per quel che posso sentire da qui. Non mi genufletto come con Pavarotti, non trattengo il fiato, né mi alzo in piedi, ma orrendo proprio no.
Yo tambien odio la tecnica alemana, aunque es la que mas sonido es capaz de producir, restango agilidad, Florez es un grande de la tecnica Italiana de canto, con la voz brillante siempre alta y con un timbre precioso. Aunque sinceramente por su tipo de voz y su dominio no le cuesta nada de nada, cantar este aria tan bien como la canta. En cambio para un lirico ya es otro cantar....
todos los que critican a juan diego son tipos que gustan de lo que a mi parecer fue una decadencia vocal no porque los registros vocales de la epoca no fueran impresionantes si no x que caresian de libertad en el esenario me refiero ala opera del siglo 20 la cual iso que la estetica de la voz decayera con esas voces oscuras tan exageradas tan travajadas que era molesto
por eso odio la tecnica alemana ya que a mi parecer la voz deve de ser tan libre como solo el bellcanto lo permite ser
How wonderful and charming Juan Diego is! I saw a television performance of this and after this aria the audience wouldn't stop applauding -- SO HE SANG IT ALL AGAIN! Marvelous. I will always love Pav the best, but it is wonderful to see handsome Juan Diego come next!
I'm curious what performance you saw on television. I was lucky enough to see the premier performance at the MET in 2008. When Florez reached the end of this aria the audience became a thundering mob until he gave an encore. La fille du regiment may not be my favourite opera but that was the best singing I have ever witnessed. (But I have never seen Pavarotti perform... so take that how you will.)
unos de los pocos videos donde a juan diego se le ve algunos de los hermosos agudos que hace, felicitaciones señores , es el ùnico en agudos perfectos que he escuchado en el mundo en todo estos años.
THATS RIGHT STOP COMPARING TO PAVAROTTI, they are diferent types of TENOR, pavarotti is lyrical, FLORES IS liviano,fast (sorry i don´t know speak very well) PLEASE ONLY ENJOY THIS VERSION, because is IGNORANCE compare diferents types of tenor, BRAVISSIMO PAVAROTTI, BRAVISSIMO FLORES
@jhoelmusic De acuerdo con tú comentario, sólo que Florez tiene una técnica espléndida aunada a un color,fuerza y volúmen,bellos; Y Pavarotti poseía un registro amlpísimo, alto y color lindísimos pero creo que menos certero en las notas o bien, un poco menos trabajado que el de Florez.
Aunque coincido contigo son tessituras uno es "Tenor ligéro" y otro es "Tenor dramático".
Well....that's because Florez is Leggiero tenor and Pavarotti was not. But, for his time, when Pavarotti was singing this aria, people were as impressed as we are impressed by Florez today. Anyway, I still hate Donizetti....hahahaha! He is mocking the tenors. Florez just gives as a hint how this aria should be sang. Well... for those who can. He's unique. I like him more in Lannguir per una bella. Here is just pure technique; there, to Rossini, there is pure love....
@djjmmm WTF! Pavarotti was a Lyric, Florez is a Leggiero (tenore di grazia). Why are you comparing two different type of tenors. Furthermore, as far as technique is concerned, no one could have ever match Pavarotti.
Why are all the comments on YouTube opera clips all so nasty? Of course Florez and Pavarotti are not the same voice categories, but since they both sang some of the same roles (ahem, such as Tonio), it is natural to make comparisons.
had a delightful holloween night at the War Memorial Opera House San Francisco Opera watching "Juan Diego Florez" as julio/The Daughter of the Regiment. and i should say..he may not be The Late Maestro Pavarotti ..But BOY!! he is really Good. he hit every Cs' like a Butter. with so much Gusto. love him!
Maestro Pavarotti was a light lyric tenor but not a tenore leggiero as Florez. Because of his superb technique, Maestro Pavarotti was able to sing in leggiero roles such Tonio. Maestro Florez is supposed to be able to sing in Tonio's role because it is in his fach. Also note that Maestro Pavarotti took on spinto roles after his voice began to darken, and became a ful lyric voice, and again, because of his superb technique, provided many renditions of spinto roles with a lyric flair.
Pavarotti is a lyric tenor, Flores is a light tenor, if you want to check google search on the definition of tenors and access wikipedia, see the classification of the tenors, and some examples of each type of tenor ..! Pavarotti is much better than any tenor today, pity is no longer in this world ..!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I'm not a big Florez fan. I have a name that I made up for this particular voice quality. I call them Mickey mouse tenors. I know, I know... thumbs down...
this guy has stolen this opera! and if all tonio's are measured against florez i'm happy. at interview he comes over as a really nice guy. juan, stay that way please.
i was in the chorus behind JDF in 2003 as he sang this (not in the production in this video) and I can tell you from very first hand experience that he sings it spectacularly well... and he filled a very large hall with bright, clear sound.
There is no doubt that Pavarotti or many others have sung this better. Also, he is a very leggero tenore; almost a tenorino. If a tenor so leggero doesn't have easy highs, then who has them? It's no merit. That being said, it's a good performance. But it amazes me that a tenor like this is so famous nowadays. In the past, for a light tenor to be so famous, it would take a legato en elegance without peer, like Schipa had. And Florez in that respect is nothing special.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Pavarotti has not sung this better. Flórez is a lyric tenor; Pavarotti a dramatic tenor. Donizetti wrote this piece escpecially for a lyric tenor, which is why Flórez has sung this so many times and so well at that. There is a very big difference between the two types of tenor (among others) and a comparison cannot be made: it's like comparing how good a table is for sitting and a chair for eating.
@Pawelp i think the same, i think the lirico-spinto version of pavarotti is more enjoyable for two reasons, first, Luciano sings it as a canzonetta, and he enjoys and makes the audience enjoy this aria, second, the high C's are not as laser beams as Juan Diego does, anyway, both are magnific, and they deserve a 5 star performance, i still prefer luciano, and i like the villazon style, but he hasn't sung this aria...yet, i think
@Pawelp Pavarotti non era full lyric e ancora meno lirico-spinto ,Pavarotti dal vivo era tenore leggero. florez non é tenore leggero,dal vivo la voce di florez non si sente da 5 metri...florez hà meno voce da una zanzara.
@bodiloto I copy the today bulletin of the Opera of Paris,you can check if you want : " Avec La Donna del lago, se transportant dans l’Ecosse de Walter Scott, Rossini inventait le romantisme musical italien. Juan Diego Florez, le plus grand ténor rossinien de notre temps, revient enfin à l’Opéra de Paris, aux côtés de Joyce DiDonato. Palais Garnier - du 14 juin au 10 juillet .
If you need I translate with pleasure...but if you want to keep your opinion is your choice..
@bodiloto Magnifico ..si Usted va a estar en la Opera de París ( un privilegio) puede demostrar a los "tontos"que dirigen esa institución :a) que están equivocados ,b) que usted si tiene la razón . Por cierto Florez ( con mayúscula) es una cortesía obligada en todos los idiomas,salvo que Usted pretenda-también-cambiar las reglas de la gramática.
@JorPove Ho seguito il suo consiglio,sono andato à vedere dal vivo La Donna del lago , confermo florez hà la voce di zanzara non si sente nella sala e la sua voce non é bellina.Adesso tocca lei venite à Parigi e ascoltate ,poi mi dirà qual'é la sua opignione...
@JorPove ho visto dal vivo 3 volte La donna del lago e confermo florez hà la voce di una zanzara,piccolina,à Garnier la sua voce non si sente.La teoria é una cosa,andate,ascoltate,venite à Parigi non c'é tempo...
@bodiloto Tres puntos: a) Cuando uno va a escuchar tres veces a un tenor que no le gusta es ...porque le gusta, salvo que Usted sea un multimillonario excéntrico. b) He leído cuatro criticas: dos latinas , una francesa ,una inglesa y todas dicen lo contrario de lo que Usted afirma. Si desea se las cito y Usted lo confirma. c) No seria que Usted se equivoco de dirección y fue a dar al "Crazy Horse" y claro...! desde allí no se escucha !.
@JorPove sono andato 3 volte à vedere lo spettacolo non perche mi piace florez,preferisco passare le mie serate nel teatro,adoro la lirica ,non guardo mai la televisione ... dal vivo per la prima volta ho visto La donna del lago nel 1964 ,preferisco il silenzio. Lascia la teoria à pace Amico ...
@bodiloto Criticas , Francia , Jorge Binaghi , París, 18/06/: ..." Claro, estaba Flórez. Lo escucho por segunda vez en Giacomo y mi admiración es idéntica. El timbre está ligeramente más oscuro, pero el fraseo, el legato, el fiato, la emisión (no pienso sólo en los famosos y fulminantes agudos, que lo fueron), la intención fueron arrebatadores, y no hubo que esperar a ‘O fiamma soave’ (catedral del belcanto donde las haya) para apreciarlo. ” Pace amico.
@JorPove lei legge che cosa dicono i critici ?!?!?!? hahahahaha,i critici si fanno pagare e sono pronti di scrivere tuttto....florez canta il repertorio di Alva,Kraus,Pavarotti ...preferisco il silenzio.Fate come me Amico,lasciate i giornali e andate nel teatro ,il primo spettacolo che ho visto dal vivo era Carmen nel 1958...questo anno in sei mesi ho visto dal vivo 70 spettacoli .Domani sera vado à Bastille c'é La Renarde ...Vai nel teatro Amico ,lascia la televisione e i tuoi giornali.
@bodiloto Radio TV Suiza: “Le ténor Juan Diego Florez présente, au Palais Garnier, "La Donna del Lago", l'un des chefs-d'oeuvre napolitains de Rossini, ....Le célèbre ténor Juan Diego Florez incarne Uberto dans une mise en scène de Luis Pasqual sous la direction de Roberto Abbado. Paul-André Demierre nous en fait la critique..” Recomiendo: No siga gastando dinero yendo a La Opera a sufrir ,compre unos periódicos. Salute,amico
@JorPove Mio caro amico: Tengo dos criticas a mano: Radio Suiza y New York Times. Ninguna dice lo que Usted afirma: todo lo contrario. No invite a ir a Francia porque no hay espacio para acomodar a los seguidores de Florez. Acepte la realidad: Flores es el mejor tenor rossiniano de la epoca. Que tiene eso de malo..? Nadie, excepto Usted lo compara con otros tenores cuyas tesituras son diferentes.Si tiene -no lo dudo-desde 1958 oyendo opera nada sabe.
@bodiloto Io ringrazio a tutti . a) Al popolo nella Italia,Alemania,Francia, España. et altri (a tutti) paese per il canto . E ringrazio a tutti artisti senza discriminazione perque hanno fatto un mondo megliori. Voila mon ami . Riccordati: "cuando muere un critico niente ricorda..,ma ,cuando muere un artista tutti il mondo soffre ". I think I have nothing more to explain..es un dialogo de sordos. Pero queda la amistad ..Di accordi..? Sono bene cossi.
@JorPove La donna del lago é un capolavoro di Rossini ,non ?Per questa ragione ho ringraziato Italia e il poppolo Italiano...io sono francese amico e parlo proprio come te 6 lingue e ti sento molto bene,e ti capisco,sei tu che non hai risposto à nessuna delle mie domande...mi parli di discriminazione à me ?hahaha tu vivi amico nel tuo mondo,io nel mio é meglio cosi !Tu parli della lirica ,io sono quasi ogni sera nel teatro...da 50 anni artisti muoiono e nessuno non dice nulla...
@bodiloto Propongo un acuerdo: Para seguir cambiando ideas ( si en el mundo puede hacerse así : sobran las guerras) podemos hacerlo en su sitio o en el mio y dejamos tranquilo al paciente amigo Pawel.Insisto porque con dos hermanos artistas (uno músico,otro pintor) tengo respeto por todos los artistas porque su vida es mas difícil que la nuestra .Y como no me gustan los militares, tampoco me gustan los que desean imponer sus ideas ,sin escuchar Voila.
@JorPove PSin questi giorni abbiamo perso La Simionato,GiuseppeTaddei e Cesare Siepi i giornali e la TV con poche parole hanno detto di loro scomparsa,nessuno film,nessuna registrazione e nessun critico per spiegare al giovane pubblico chi erano questi inestimabili Artisti, e poi mi scrivi che quando muore un artista tutto il mondo soffre,ma dai.Sveglia ti Amico lascia i tuoi giornali e la TV e vai nel teatro,vedrai ti sentirai meglio.Anch'io sto molto bene cosi,preferisco morrire nel teatro.
@bodiloto En el año 1978 el Presidente de mi pais, Rodrigo Carazo tuvo una humorada: me nombra su Viceministro de Cultura,Juventud y Deportes,cuando yo no era ni culto,ni joven ni deportista. Muchos deseaban el cargo y no lo obtuvieron. La vida:a unos les da a otros les quita. Pero no vamos a cambiarla , aunque a Usted no le agrade Florez y a mi si ,como me gustaron Simionato, Taddei,Siepi y tantos otros ,aunque la prensa no diga nada de ellos. Asi es el Teatro de la Vida Real.
@JorPove io non soffro amico,soffre la lirica,poi nello stesso spettacolo c'é un tenore americano canta meglio dal florez ma nessun critico parla di lui,guarda io quasi ogni giorno parlo con artisti,cantanti non leggo giornali e non guardo la TV,non ho tempo.Ma tu amico non mi hai capito bene Alva,Kraus,Pavarotti erano Tenori ,per me florez é un dilettante,dal vivo e senza microfono la sua voce é cosi piccolina che durante ogni suo spettacolo mi fa ridere e questo e buono per la mia salute.
@31122051 carissimo amico,grande parte dei critici sono degli ignoranti,perche?
Se Giacomini non sapeva cantare,se Bonisolli faceva schifo allora sono molto curioso che cosa scriverá il signor elvio giudici per i "grandi interpreti" del 21 secolo per i grandi nomi come: cura,villazon,hampson,raimondi,gavanelli,kaufmann,la zanzara florez,alagna,alvarez e sopratutto per il novo vecchio baritono di zarzuela /attualmente si é transformato nel baritono Verdiano.../?Dal vivo PAMINGO aveva do?ahahahah
@31122051 PS PAMINGO da 20 anni non arriva di cantare uno si bemole ahahah grazie amico mi hai fatto ridere e questo é fantastico per la mia salute. PAMINGO cantava bellissimi do?Io personalmente non ho sentito mai dal vivo PAMINGO di cantare uno si naturale,dico cantare.Pamingo durante 40 anni da cantante lirico si é transformato nel venditore d'immagini...quando gridava accanto alla Dimitrova e la Marton ogni recita perdeva la voce e i critici spesso dicevano:-"oggi Pamingo é malato "! ahahah
@31122051 PS 2 carissimo amico,signor elvio giudici non é un critico ORRENDO, e molto semplice questo signore é.......... SORDO !Ma nel 21 secolo questa é una malatia Mondiale! Oggi parlano della zanzara dicendo che é piu grande dal Pavarotti,Kraus,Wunderlich...ahahahahahahah questo zanzarone piu grande dal Pavarotti ahahahahahahahah!Carissimo,purtroppo la mediocritá fa grande parte del nostro Mondo!Ho registrazioni dal vivo dove Giacomini,Bonisolli e la Dimitrova sono SUBLIMI!!! Ciao amco mio!
That's a good joke, danm90. Pavarotti, a dramatic tenor. What are Del Monaco or Merli then? Basses? Pavarotti is, as Pawelp said, a lyric (with a full-bodied voice). Florez is a leggero. Very, I must add.
To clarify, I didn't mean that Pavarotti was rubbish; I realise I came across that way. To answer, Del Monaco and Merli, too are "classed", so to speak, as dramatic tenors. And I do apologise, Flórez is leggiero: I had read the classication incorrectly.
hahaha! If your going to talk bulls*** at least get your facts in order. Pavarotti was NOT a dramatic tenor. He was a characteristicly lyric although he sang many roles that were on the heavy side.
Is it the recording or......does this performance sound better than the one in Vienna 2007....?? I like his voice better here.......any comments ? ( actually he's great on any day )
I can't understand why people doesn't enjoy these vids without all the problem about who's the best singer, etc etc, come on, they're different singers and they both are good :)))
I dont think that it is as good as pavarotti because he doesnt nearly match him in the power of his notes but he sings the high C's without breaks and staccato like they are written
He is desgrace to opera singers?! Come on, this is ridiculous and silly. You can say youu don't like him, but disgrace? This singer has huge respect and a full schedule for the next 6 years, hired by the greatest opera houses in the world. Your opinion can't be taken seriously, if you are writing such stupidity.
Ummm...vocal restraint? As far as I am concerned, singing opera isn't about restraining anything, just simply not blowing your cords apart - this he does not do.
He may not be better than Pavarotti, but is an equal match assured when it comes to ability with this aria.
florez sings this peice so great. florezs cs are much more in tune and much more effortless than pavarottis were. i have always thought that. he just sounds better at this point in his career.
El mejor. A nadie le sale mejor el agudo que emplea en este tema. Este tenor ligero es el mejor de todos los tiempos. Juan Diego Flores tiene la mejor voz del mundo.
Already Florez has become a legendary tenor with a flare for singing that is quite unique. Alfredo Kraus was a very great singer but his voice wasn't as pure as Florez's and he didn't have quite the coloratura technique.
I agree with the coloratura (although have you heard Kraus' ecco ridente and il mio tesoro?), but regarding purity, Kraus was even better than Floez who pushes slightly at the top.
Dear Billy1983yes, I would objectively include in that list a third one: Kraus. Personally, I think Kraus' voice has more armonics and is more "argentea" for he had easier ability to disseminate the voice throught the head. Perhaps you would enjoy the performance at the Paris Opera when he was 59, also posted in YouTuve. You tell me! Best!
goodness me.....this performance was quite incredible, what an upper register!!!!! normally after a while of high tessiture you get tired and it becomes more forced and strained but this guy just keeps on flinging up to that C with such ease every time!! Incredible!!!!!
I performed once in a choir accompanying Boccelly and I heard him singing without microphone in a dressing room.... He does not have a voice of an operatic singer..... try to listen to him singinga an aria and then another "real" tenor..... I did that once to a friend odf mine with Bocelli singing Ofigli miei from Macbeth and after him immedieately Carreras singing the same aria.... Difference as heaven and the earth in favor of carreras...... so sorry for all fans of Bocelli.....
Beautiful singing, very good technique but the leggiero voice doesn't cut it even in this role. If Florez were a light lyric tenor (as Pavarotti in his youth), it would have been sensational.

How wonderful and charming Juan Diego is! I saw a television performance of this and after this aria the audience wouldn't stop applauding -- SO HE SANG IT ALL AGAIN! Marvelous. I will always love Pav the best, but it is wonderful to see handsome Juan Diego come next!
Valkyrie91a 2 years ago 10
I'm curious what performance you saw on television. I was lucky enough to see the premier performance at the MET in 2008. When Florez reached the end of this aria the audience became a thundering mob until he gave an encore. La fille du regiment may not be my favourite opera but that was the best singing I have ever witnessed. (But I have never seen Pavarotti perform... so take that how you will.)

I agree. Pavarotti was a lyrical-spinto while Florez is a leggiero tenor. Their voice types are different and will produce different types of sound.

@jhoelmusic De acuerdo con tú comentario, sólo que Florez tiene una técnica espléndida aunada a un color,fuerza y volúmen,bellos; Y Pavarotti poseía un registro amlpísimo, alto y color lindísimos pero creo que menos certero en las notas o bien, un poco menos trabajado que el de Florez.
Aunque coincido contigo son tessituras uno es "Tenor ligéro" y otro es "Tenor dramático".

I actually think Florez sings this better than Pavarotti. Florez's high Cs have more staccato and power than Pavarotti's.

Well....that's because Florez is Leggiero tenor and Pavarotti was not. But, for his time, when Pavarotti was singing this aria, people were as impressed as we are impressed by Florez today. Anyway, I still hate Donizetti....hahahaha! He is mocking the tenors. Florez just gives as a hint how this aria should be sang. Well... for those who can. He's unique. I like him more in Lannguir per una bella. Here is just pure technique; there, to Rossini, there is pure love....

Maestro Pavarotti was a light lyric tenor but not a tenore leggiero as Florez. Because of his superb technique, Maestro Pavarotti was able to sing in leggiero roles such Tonio. Maestro Florez is supposed to be able to sing in Tonio's role because it is in his fach. Also note that Maestro Pavarotti took on spinto roles after his voice began to darken, and became a ful lyric voice, and again, because of his superb technique, provided many renditions of spinto roles with a lyric flair.

There is no doubt that Pavarotti or many others have sung this better. Also, he is a very leggero tenore; almost a tenorino. If a tenor so leggero doesn't have easy highs, then who has them? It's no merit. That being said, it's a good performance. But it amazes me that a tenor like this is so famous nowadays. In the past, for a light tenor to be so famous, it would take a legato en elegance without peer, like Schipa had. And Florez in that respect is nothing special.

Pavarotti has not sung this better. Flórez is a lyric tenor; Pavarotti a dramatic tenor. Donizetti wrote this piece escpecially for a lyric tenor, which is why Flórez has sung this so many times and so well at that. There is a very big difference between the two types of tenor (among others) and a comparison cannot be made: it's like comparing how good a table is for sitting and a chair for eating.

Florez is a light lyric or leggiero - Pavarotti was a full lyric or lirico-spinto at best.

@Pawelp Not a spinto. Domingo was a lyrico spinto. Pavarotti was a lyric.
LordHettrick 1 year ago
@Pawelp i think the same, i think the lirico-spinto version of pavarotti is more enjoyable for two reasons, first, Luciano sings it as a canzonetta, and he enjoys and makes the audience enjoy this aria, second, the high C's are not as laser beams as Juan Diego does, anyway, both are magnific, and they deserve a 5 star performance, i still prefer luciano, and i like the villazon style, but he hasn't sung this aria...yet, i think

Already Florez has become a legendary tenor with a flare for singing that is quite unique. Alfredo Kraus was a very great singer but his voice wasn't as pure as Florez's and he didn't have quite the coloratura technique.
