  • @Merryjest I agree on that. The timbre is characteristic of the "sound signature" of your physical body. What I say is that one can achieve a more beautiful sound by improving the technique. That is "belcanto"; most singer (and I am referring mainly to tenors here) shout and stress the organ, be it for copying this or that other singer, be it for misunderstanding about what is singing, and achieve just the opposite that they intend...the voice reslts mediocre and with "standard operatic" sound.

  • You are born with a specific kind of voice. Its potential harmonics, tone and qualities cannot be changed, merely improved through technique. But an unattractive voice will not be magically transformed. What separates Kraus from many tenors is that, despite having a less-than-gorgeous instrument, he performed great art, was one of the best musicians, and had a solid technique that few have ever matched.

  • CHE MERAVIGLIA ......

    ANCHE IL PIANISTA ACCOMPAGNA IN MODO NOBILE E SPLENDIDO.

    GRAZIE

  • Bueno, esta sola interpretación hubiera fundado la fama de un cantante. Pero viniendo del inmortal Kraus, simplemente nos refleja el altísimo estándar del Maestro.

  • meraviglioso,sublime,nobilissi­mo Alfredo

  • @magisquam

    And don't forget Lazaro!

  • Excelente versión, como todo lo que cantaba Kraus. Debería ser tomada como ejemplo en las escuelas de música.

  • He was the best ligth-liric tenor , he really sung that roles that his voice was able to sing and in this fragment is a clear exemple of belcanto and a very good technich , I think he is as good as Fritz Wunderlich , and Nicolai Gedda.

  • he was sixty when he did this, wow

  • Il miglior tenore spagnolo, con Fleta e Aragall.

  • @Merryjest OK, I missed this one. We fully agree, then.

    Cheers.
