  • When one watches and listens to this, IMHO, it all is said and DONE. . .there is NONE finer. . .the emotion, the vocal nuance and insight, the mature artistry. . .the character "lived" in Vickers and he "died" in Vickers. THIS moved me to tears. I was lucky enough to have been onstage with this amazing artist several times. His performances always left me stunned and speechless.

  • By far the most exciting Otello. del Monaco, Domingo,etc...are all great in their own right, but Vickers keeps me on the edge of my seat. And my god, the voice...he's the Bastianini of tenors

  • perfección

  • A magnificent performance by a great Canadian tenor! Thank you Onegin65 for this posting! Vickers embodies Otello! Bravo!

  • I'm sure, this is best.

  • Non male. Un po' ingenuo alle volte (nel dilatare i tempi etc.), ma è la più nobile lettura dell'Otello che abbia mai ascoltato.

  • This is the most beutiful opera scene i had ever wittnesed

  • The best Otello ever. By far. No one ever came close to that depth, insight, meaningfulness. And all this in spite of a voice that was never beautiful.

    Heaven = a tenor with Vickers' genius and Corelli's voice and looks.

  • And that IS how you bring the house down! I am so inpired right now by this amazing artistry. My new goal in life is to sing this role! Mightbe impossible but I can see the complete realization in Jon when he embodies this timeless character. Bravo

  • AMAZING. Amazing. The best Otello I have seen. Love the way he sings/acts "Oh gloria..."

    MDM and others, as much as I like them.. when they sing some of these lines they sing it the same way they sing 'si pel ciel.' But this is not the same Otello that sang si pel ciel, this is Otello crushed deflated and with his entire mental foundation yanked out from under him.... perfect!

  • stunning

  • @Romeowasbleeding1 watch IL pagliacci
