"Languir per una bella"

Lindoro - Juan Diego Flórez

L'Italiana in Algeri - Act I
Opera Company of Philadelphia, 2000
c. Corrado Rovaris


Early JDF.. there's another one of him singing 'languir' from a few years later, but this is him pretty young (only 26 here, I believe), just after his time at the AVA in Philly. He cuts some corners for sure but what a voice, even back then! He sings so well that the horn soloist can't even play the opening phrase..

Wonderful Florez, bel canto so bright and easy-like. What an artist !

JDF is worn out! his real value has been recognized. In NY nobody misses him. New young real tenors are now appearing. Brownlee, Camarena and Kudrya are running the scene.

[saagua1953]

He went to Curtis and he was 27 when he sang this. He was born in January, 1973.

Haha! Just watched this after one of Blake's versions here on Youtube and this one sounds like a joke in comparison....

I have to say, all though he isn't the best I've heard he is one of the best at coloratura that I have had the pleasure of listening to. I think he loses resonance some times.
