Thanks for posting this. An Excellent duet. Both singers are fantastic.

he said in an interview, that he tries to make a distance between the role and himself, because without it, if he feels what the role feels, then he can't sing because he gets out of breath, and weeps instead. and that is not really professional, because his job is singing, not weeping.

@eunegin if he pretends, he usually pretends very well:-))))

These photos have nothing to do with the pain and drama of this scene!! Fleming smiling, looking around a curtain at 4 mins while singing that she will die??

Amazing! Thanks for posting this.

Thanks for posting this, I wish I could have attended this performance. And I wish the DVD of Fleming´s Traviata had been made with Vargas and DH, instead of the worn out Bruson (when will he retire??!!) and the clown Villazon.

Of course,he must be a wonderful person..a good friend,indeed!I wasn't talking about his personal conditions like an human being,Sir!

And...i want to say to you something very intimate:I ever have liked him as a man...I EVER have admired his extraordinary sensuality and handsomeness..

Maybe,my disgusting feelings are born from something that we can call..."sour grapes"..

Can you understand me?

I cannot be your friend if you feel a "disgusting aura" over DH. I have personally met him, talked to him, he talked to me, we joked together, I have pctures of him and me together, e.t.c. He is a very down-to-earth person, there is nothing phony about him. He is also very humble if you pay him a compliment. In other words, he is a good person.

"Goodbye," says eunegin.

[Ankhsnammon]

Yes,sir..you're right..this is all that we can ask for...Forgive me,please...i didn't want to offend you or anyone else...

forgive me,please...
