  • Many people have complained aboutt Kaufmann's dark timbre causing some problems in the upper softer range. However, if you listen, closely, to his French repertoire, I think you will find his voice opening up with a beautiful clarity and melodic line.

    I have heard his Werther, which, in my judgment reveals his incredible flexibility and tenderness, a quality that I also hear in his tender rendition of the Le Reve aria

  • @musicmuse56 agreed!!!

  • @sisifus100 You are right, the main thing is when the voice touches our mind and moves our heart.

  • @johntmarohn1 I agree, and his Werther was (and still is) one of the most stunning things I've ever heard.

  • @johntmarohn1 agree with you

  • @vautour23 YES ! Tout à fait d'accord avec vous! Ce n'est absolument pas la voix du rôle, c'est pour cela qu'il est tellement gêné.

  • Wonderful voice, you touch our souls, that is the important!!

    Wundervoll, Sie berühren unsere Seelen, das zählt!!

    Maravilloso, Ud. toca nuestras almas, éso es lo más importante...no más!!
