Fritz Wunderlich Recital: Mozart-Zauberfloete Tamino's Aria

I wish Mozart could listen to this.

This has to be one of the most incredible performance ever recorded.. Its a complete shame it doesn't have 12156345645 views.. tragic really.

what perfect technique coupled with such wonderful emotion, you feel amazing just listening.. He moves my heart EVERY TIME he sings

Is their any better than the great german tenor Wunderlich?

Not at this aria, at least for me. I have always been a die hard Bjorling fan.. but I find myself listening to more and more of this wonderful wonderful artist!

This most amazing thing about this video, and anyone who has attempted this aria will agree i believe, is how relaxed and easy he makes singing this aria seem. Mozart is so hard because every note must seem as if one were singing in the shower. Beautiful voice!

exactly! ...I remember 1st hearing this aria live and hating it b/c it seemed so long winded and boring - but now I see the beauty in it after seeing it done by a master. The tenor I saw sing it could hit all the notes, but you could tell he was working his butt off for it whereas Fritz gives the illusion here its nothing which allows for the listener to connect emotionally to singer and what the text is converying

so sweet and unbelievably beautiful

Fantastic tenor!! Hope he delves into some of the Italian repertoire.

What a wonderful sound and ease. I was presently surprised to hear an up and coming Tenor, Isaac Hurtado, do great justice to this aria.

haha, that's my old teacher. he's good.

This is just great tenor singing at its pinnacle. He keeps those G naturals so slender!!!

Is it possible that such a glorious sound can come from a human being's throat (Wunderlich)? Or that such wonderful melodies can spring from the imagination of a human being (Mozart)?
