Sempre tirato, calante e al limite sugli acuti ( forse anche PAMINGO avrebbe saputo fare di meglio, e questo la dice lunga ). Comunque per un baritono brillante davvero niente male.
Bergonzi was a great tenor.I wander how would Pavarotti compare cause he is so overrated.I cant stand the fact that Pavarotti was so popular and more well known then the rest of the great tenors just cause of the development of music industry and mass media in the 80s&90s as well as the popular recordings of arias and with pop performers.And still there are people who in fact,never heard any other great tenor and claim that he is best ever,one of the all time greats at best,not one inch more.
Spot on, I question my self thing, I cannot understand why pavarotti was so overrated, perhaps because publicity and marketing, Luciano had a fantastic manager herbest Berslin os something like that, Unfortunatelly this is how opera singer operated unlike Alfredo Kraus always serving music.
@markovican Send me a live recording of Pavarotti singing flat on one high note and I will send you twenty with Carlo Bergonzi but singing in tune ain´t important just as playing in tune ain´t!! Of the three tenors Luciano had the longest career and sounded younger and with more freshness then both Carreras and Domingo. I adore Bergonzi´s silk like timber and wonderful legato but can´t stand his flat high notes and weak acuti above the passagio.
@sgreg53 Why do you start of with an insult to Pavarotti´s bodysize? Is that very important to you? Domingo´s voice have never thrilled me. Maybe I´m in love with great high notes which he never had during his career. Notes above A-natural was always a risk with Domingo. Maybe that´s not important in the Wagner rep which is what Domingo spend most of his last 15 years singing. 1990 when they sang the three tenor concerts Pavarotti sounded younger then both P.D and J.C
Malgrado la sua non sia da considerarsi tra le voci di tenore più belle, Bergonzi dimostra comunque di essere un grandissimo artista, e qui, come sempre, offre una grande lezione di canto.
la voce non è tra l'olimpo delle voci tenorili (ricordiamoci che stiamo paragonando dei grandi!)ma sicuramente è il MIGLIORE dei tenori come conoscenza della partitura!...la voce lo hanno sempre detto tutti,non è solo quello che serve..è tutto che rende grande un tenore e Bergonzi è stato in grado di mettere insime tutte queste cose!
@34fgsfgsdtu48w7qtaqt : L. Pavarotti, A. Kraus e F. Bonisolli interpretavano tutti il ruolo del duca di Mantova molto meglio di C. Bergonzi, tenore valido nei primi 15 / 20 anni di carriera e poi ( già a partire dai primissimi anni '70 ) letteralmente senza acuti. Saluti.
Great singing! Thank you for posting!

Auch ich denke, daß seit Caruso nie wieder der Herzog von Mantua so gut gesungen wurde wie von Carlo Bergonzi

Impossibile cantare meglio in questo ruolo. Più ascolto Bergonzi e più mi accorgo che in molte opere è stato veramente uno dei più grandi.
