Isn't he really the best coloratura tenor ever?! Check out his Idomeneo (Fuor del mar like NO OTHER!) or Septimus from Handel's Theodora. He gives Juan Diego Florez (a very different kind of tenor, no repertoire overlap, I understand) a run for his money.

R.Croft has a very warm and elegant timbre. He is one of my favorites in current years. His Orphee with Mincowski is sublime.

Do you have any of the other arias from Die Entfuhrung? I'm curious as to how he might have done Ich baue ganz :D

Je constate avec beaucoup de plaisir que le jeune Croft n'a rien à envier au maitre qu'il est devenu au fil du temps. La voix était déjà somptueuse, la vocalise facile et la tessiture impressionnante. Le DVD semble être actuellement introuvable mais si vous pouvez l'emprunter dans une médiathèque foncez dessus c'est un petit bijou

What is this aria called?!? I've been looking for the name.

@vitellia I really love his Fuor der Mar. Wow! Totally agreed. Thank you very much for the information.
I also love Messiah, too.

@vitellia His "Fuor del mar" is INCREDIBLE! The cadenza at the end is just amazing in the Jacobs recording.
-
Thank you very much for the information. I will definitely check them out.

Fantastic Richard Croft! Fantastic Mozart!
-
don't you have a recording of "Ich baue ganz" from this production? if you do so, can you post it here please?

I have become his fan ever since I heard his Orphee. His coloratura is really wonderful.
Belmonte is not a boring character - at least not for me, a listener.
His and Konstanze's arias are jewels in the history of the opera!

Thanks for your comment unisono. I did not mean that I find Belmonte boring. I had read an article by Ian Bostridge who said he, as a tenor, found him boring. I think Belmonte needs to be played as young and feisty not stuffy and dull. I think Richard Croft got it right here.
