BRAVO!! Thank you for posting this!!! I've only heard this on a recording and I've always loved it, the two men harmonize so well! To actually see them perform it is really fun!

Cast perfetto!!!Non c'e' un Don Carlos migliore di questo.

[LeonoraPasiniani]

Ferruccio Furlanetto is the handsomest Filippo II ever!

Assolutamente magnifici!!!!!!! Che voci!!!!!!

Nice staging, lovely singing, but yes, they do seem to forget they are in costume, on that stage, during the duet. They even stand as though they are singing a concert hall performance in tails, not putting on an opera.

The singing, of course, is incredible. But how do you perform a duet of such intense intimacy and not even be able to look at each other in the eye for more than a split second.

[WhiteProfondo]

GREAT epic music! Thats Verdi!!!

[nclysander]

Vocally, this is just about perfect, but where is the intensity? For the first verse, they're just staring blankly off into space. I expected more from this line-up.

[gheeah]

what a voice and performance of Jose Carreras!!!! He is the most thrilling artist ...
