li ho ascoltati tutti e dieci in teatro e qualcuno più di una volta, tranne la Callas
Protti e Cappuccilli anche in Rigoletto
Protti ottimo baritono (scuola Basiola) ma qui è troppo verista
Cappuccilli è possente e molto incisivo (troppo)
Milnes è un ottimo baritono lirico ma in Rigoletto non è a suo agio (benino)
Dieskau mi piace sempre per la immensa intelligenza ma occorre veemenza
Wixell così così
mancano, oltre agli Dei:
Tibbet, McNeal, Nucci, Warren, Bastianini, Bruson, Hvorostovky

nuts...

Gruberova ALWAYS with the awful quasi-Viennese scoop to the wobby high tone! She infected a whole generation of the girls (Dessay, Damrau, for two examples) who apparenty think this is not only acceptable, but desirable!

Milnes and Sutherland win this for me, Sutherland's high Eb is amazing, and Milnes sings beautifully and manages to also have a mastery of legato lines and acting with the voice. Cappuccilli and Contrubas come second, with the ending being the only let down. I like Wixell a lot actually, and Protti has the most exciting start but Tucci is a tad shrill for my tastes. Fischer-Dieskau's is a noble attempt, but for me it is a little too elegant and light, Scotto however is wonderful.

@Kafkandinsky I understand =) I mean, his voice sounds "forced" to me, it's like it was hard for him to sing...sorry, my english is not so good, I can't find the right words =)

Quite unfair to Wixell. His prime was between 60's and 70's. People tend to misjudge Wixell voice, but in his prime he really had a fantastic voice, worthy of mention. Not my favourite though, since I prefer Titto Gobbi or Cappuccilli in this role
-
Wixell voice might sound light on recording, but in an opera house it was really huge.

@brolobear Mr Milnes had those top notes, as did Mr Warren, who I understand is a baritone Mr Milnes admires very much .... You're lucky to have an acquaintance like Mr. Milnes

@casalhug hahahahahahaha!

Mi lascia perplesso il fatto che i duetti sono tagliati tutti prima che il baritono termini, indice di poca sensibilità. Ringrazio comunque chi fornisce questi match-video, sempre buoni spunti per discussioni e crescita personale.
Protti orrido e stentoreo, Tucci fuori parte, Fischer Dieskau troppo reaffinato per la parte Scotto migliore Gilda del secolo, ottimo Milbnes e, anche se al solito non articola le parole, ottima Sutherland, truculento Cappuccilli buona la Cotrubas, orrendo Wixell, un Rigoletto di seriue C e troppo compassata la Gruberova

No one can touch Sutherland, as always.
