  • Neil Schicoff is a fabulous actor who

    sings the heart of any role as the

    composer intended. Baltsa's imperious

    Carmen is a good match for him.

    Thank you.

  • No tenor ever sang it better then he did and in the last act he is above then all.

  • god her French is horrid

  • 5:44 Sensational.

  • Thank you so much for uploading this video! Simply amazing! Love these two!!!

  • Sensational! one of the very best was Shicoff in the role.

  • Even in a staged performance you hardly see this kind of passion anymore. Looks to me like even La Baltsa was slightly taken aback.

  • Gorgeous performance - they created so much tenseness on the stage!

    Thank you for uploading!

  • @Kievest I agree with you 100%. I've been a fan of Neil for many years.

  • Neil Schicoff is for me the best Don Jose. So incredibly moving and beautiful. Heart rending.. how could her heart not break? What a great musical artist. I aggree with an earlier comment ..this is what Opera is about.. the essence of it.

  • You can't find this kind of emotion & passion in the singing of today's opera singers. In the 21st century opera world, opera singers obsess with technique. They wish only to be vocal athletes who stand there & sing". Nobody cares because they look good standing too. But opera is drama and should be sung as dramatically as Baltsa & Shicoff sing here. If only Callas had lived to train newer singers.

  • He manages to give an outstanding performance without going over the top, emotional and into his role with every note. He was 46 years old. Bravo!
