Tenor Lawrence Brownlee sings Tonio's aria from "La fille du regiment" by Donizetti during the 16 Festliche Operngala für die deutsche Aidsstiftung" at the Deutsche Oper Berlin on 7. Nov. 2009.
Don't you think his voice is way much better than Juan Diego Florez's?!?
@infrantasi I agree that his top register is not empty and hollow. However the fact that he can sing a nice high F doesn't mean anything.

@MrNikodemus2 Umm . . . do we have an ear infection or someting? Brownlee can sing to high F with great resonance and color, unlike Pavarotti.

With all these comparisons, personal taste and preference must count for something- it's not a science after all. I love his voice over Juan Diego Florez' because I prefer the rich, full, (soulful?) sound. Analyse it all you like, It's what appeals to me when I'm listening.

Though Pavarotti, Domingo ,carreras have there own class Lawrence sings good and has a refined rich tenor voice ,keep it and bravo for a wonderful performance.

nettement supérieur à J D F . Il a une musicalité incroyable et un velouté dans la voix qui me paraissent assez rares chez les ténors (c'est une voix que je n'aime pas trop ! je trouve que beaucoup hurlent et oublient de chanter)

I saw him at the Vienna State Opera House yesterday. He was breathtaking.. I'm still trying to recover!

and he stabs at the high C just like poor florez. then again, it is not fair to compare them to the maestro, Pavaorotti. problem is one can't enjoy the farm once one has seen Paris. Pavarotti ruined this aria for ever - no one can sing it like him. at least we have the records.
