  • Just compare this masculine, full voiced approach of King to the pinched, nasal, whiny Kollo on the complete recording! Why didn't RCA choose King in his prime? Many thanks for posting this!

  • Wirklich beeindruckend!

  • @billyguns2  I have three versions of this opera including the one you mention and I certainly wouldn't describe Kollo's voice as "pinched, nasal, and whiny." He's not at his best but he has a lovely lyrical voice. Your comment is mean-spirited. Cheer up! I'm sure Kollo sings much better than you do.

  • @billyguns2 You are absolutely true. The typical publicity and industrie story that destroid opera...

  • One of my favorite clips on Youtube. The only problem is that this is like peanuts. I can't just hear it once. I play it over and over and over. My soul mate said: Any wonder you're depressed all the time. Turn that off.

    Not a chance

  • A masterpiece of interpretation. James King IS Paul.

    One of the most moving scenes in opera.

  • @9546aw No, because I met him and played for him shortly before his passing and that was years after the RCA recoding was made. RCA could also have cast John Alexander, who had done the role at NY CIty Opera and also sang at the Metropolitan Opera.

  • @billyguns2 : I think King died prior to the RCA Recording

  • ...allerdings in einer anderen Auffuehrung!

  • Die ganze Oper ist in yt zu geniessen! Einfach grossartig!
