  • ok...soooo does anyone else hear Polenzani at 2:19? Gorgeous

  • This is such a finely placed, remarkably assured effort, in concert, of two of the world's great vocal technichians. Bravo, indeed!

  • @Emajor7b5 Wow. As a tenor myself (having never sung the piece or studied it) I didn't even realize that was a Bb. I didn't realize it got that high until the obvious bit at the end.

  • Ar fheabhas ar fad. An bheirt ar fheabhas

  • @Emajor7b5 I like the piano Bb too, but technically the score does say forte every time that Bb is there.

  • Genious!

    

  • @Grandtenore agreed! Amazing!

  • Bravo for Polenzani! But in this duet I love Keenlyside's performance. He sounds perfect and powerful, Listen carefully also at 2:19 to his voice!

  • FINALLY a tenor that understands that the Bb at 02:19 is piano ! :)

  • @chiaranotte They are singing in French!

  • What a treasured pairing. Magnificent.
