Lovely. Allen has a substantial lyric baritone with a dramatic edge, which gives much pleasure within his fach. Allen has never ventured far beyond that fach, which is why he still sings superbly today:)--

I tried to find this and got rickrolled to Keenlyside. This more than makes up for it.

it's guys like these that make you show your baritone pride!
-
Unbelievably the BEST baritone!! Thank you for your great talent, heart, heroic spirit developed and shared! WOW, WOW, WOW is all I can say!!
-
Supreme authority, in all his performances...
-
Magnifique! Chante parfaitement le français. Une diction impeccable. C'est pour moi une découverte. Une voix ensoleillée. Bravo!
-
Entendre un français aussi impeccable chez un Anglais, voilà qui est bien rare ! Ajouté à cela une justesse fort appréciable, et une belle vaillance. Bravo maestro !
-
WEEPING!

@peduzzi89 AMEN.

*kisses fingers* he is just one of those singers where everything is just right

@stevevandien That is so true....there is soooo much pressure for singers to always go one step more dramatic and it can ruin voices.

The recording was made with Domingo, Ghiaurov and Freni! Such an incredible power! Love that interpretaion! His voice is perfectly balanced, great expression, gentile and such a hot timbre and a brilliant technique!!! Just Brilliant! If you ask me - well Sir Thomas Allen IS the perfect Valentin for all the times! And not only...you should hear his Count in "Le Nozze"...

@MladenovAtanas Indeed. If Allen is a perfect Valentin, he is also the perfect Count Almaviva in my opinion.

@schweitzer006325 @mladenovatanas he may just be the perfect Baritone.

@brosseau I would second that opinion entirely.

Enfin un baryton qui daigne ne pas prendre cet air pour un pretexte a trompetter a pleins poumons en permanence.
Bravo.
