  • In 1989 Kal Bohm was dead (Talvela died in june). Probably is a 1980 recording.

  • You're absolutely right. Thanks for the catch.

  • Please : where? singers?orchestra?conductor?

    Thanks

  • Bayerische Staatsoper, Karl Böhm conducting. 1989.

  • Talvela looks very scary. I would not mess with him. He actually reminds me of Bluto from Popeye.

  • the most beautiful bass voice of all time. such a clean, burnished sound!

  • Certified Intergalactic! It's only with Martti Talvela that I enjoyed this aria.

  • No way is that a fail, being able to sing a low D (or even D sharp;) over an orchestra in a big theatre and still be heard - it's pure awesome!

  • low D fail ! 

  • talvela is such a fantastic bass but in my opinion this performance is quite disappointing.

  • Magnifico Bajo, Eximio Artista; Uno de esos Cantantes/Actores que ralmente

    valen la pena recordar y no olvidar.

  • Endlich eine klassische Arie, die mir gefällt. Das meiste ist so unverständlich, aber das Lied und die Verständlichkeit sind klasse.

  • @Albericco Its from 1980 live broadcast. Gruberova substituted the ill Popp as Constanze

  • @Albericco Its from 1978 live broadcast. Gruberova substituted the ill Popp as Constanze

  • @mozart200657 Really it's from 1980.

  • @LifeJuice90 Apparently, once an opponent took one look at him and gave up before the match even started! MT boxed as a college student and was so good he could have taken it up professionally. But he gave it up in favour of singing (hooray!!) - and because he had such a dreadful headache after one training bout that he decided he never wanted to make anyone else suffer like that.
