choirman. Are you sure it was written for a mezzo? I've been taught that many songs currently performed by mezzo's were originally written for counter tenor's or castrate. They only became mezzo pats when those voices went out of style and disappeared from the music scene.

It's odd thinking of a man, counter tenor or not, playing this role since it was written as a pants role for mezzo. It makes since that a counter tenor would play it though as well as a mezzo.

Well done, indeed! Some points, though, for future consideration - the language needs work, more specifically with the diction, and the style needs to be cleaned up, this is Mozart, and portamenti of this sort was not accentuated until much later down the line (ie later bel canto and into romantic/verismo opera).

I'm only saying these things because they have helped me and been taught to me regarding Mozart. I've had some very picky coaches and very lenient ones, and scooping is forbidden!

I think his perfomance is pretty impressive. I wish he had received stronger applause at the end. It is a wonderful voice. I thank you for posting!

[chevrox]

i want to see more of him! 太好了！

[WeasleyOurKing]

I'm confused.

[TrebleB4Mi]

This role is normally sung by female mezzo but the character is supposed to be an adolescent male so right now it's being played by a male counter tenor... pretty well actually

[dewhistle]

Pretty good, but it would be better if he could enunciate clearly in the faster parts. He sounds good at the end, but the mushy syllables were too distracting before the song slowed down.

Such a beautiful voice!
