He will always live on in our hearts and minds.....and as a robot monkey.

Hans Hopf had just as deep and dark a voice as Vinay and never dropped down to baritone.
Listen to him as the Emperor in FRAU.

Heldentenors are NOT baritones. Baritones can sing some Heldentenor roles and much more vice versa, but a baritone with a high C is still a baritone: my teacher Walter Cassel, who sang Kurvenal to Vinay's Tristan at the Met, had a high C and a low C but he was neither a tenor nor a bass. But so much of this - including vocal ttimbre - depends on what technique you learn that we'll never have consensus on the baritone-heldentenor issue.

Ramon Vinay was an extraordinary singer with a very interesting career. I believe he started out as a bass, then baritone, then heldentenor. His tenor roles were limited to a couple of Wagner roles, Otello and a very few others. As he aged, he went back down the ladder to baritone and later to bass. He's definitely an acquired taste. But I have learned to love his singing!
Special tenor .Unique voice.
I lile Ramon Vinay's dark voice.
Thanks moving Vinay.
