oh great great Matteuzzi!!!

[turandot82]

Wasn't the Malibran version written for Malibran's mezzo soprano voice?

[SonoPortoricano]

Lucia Aliberti!! Oh my, utterly amazing!

MATTEUZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[ChrisStockslager]

Why are male singers singing in falsetto so frowned upon? It kind of pisses me off -- if it's there, you may as well use it! Odds are, these men's high notes would've sounded a lot more pleasing that way!

7:03Omg, Matteuzzi - Hi F nature!!!

[ConcentricEccentric]

I actually prefer the high F, because it just FEELS harmonically complete. I can understand some not liking the sound (though I think Gedda does it so beautifully, and Matteuzzi as well), but the Db feels like a cliff-hanger, like the aria doesn't reach it's natural conclusion. But, like high Cs and Ds, if you have them, you have them - if not, you'll just have to do without.

Where its pavarotti?

[angalafan]

Well, the one who gives me the feeling to be the most at ease is Matteuzzi. And artistically the best too, because he used probably the mixted voice fort he top notes, which is to me the best way to do it. As for the Aliberti, she's not afraid to be ridiculous in her version..!

Matteuzzi sings the F....I can NOT sing an F,grrrr... Still I believe i have quite good high notes. Am I right that the other tenors sing D flat ? I could sing that... I have quite strong D flat on youtube in the duett from Rigoletto. "karifrid,great high D flat,Rigoletto". I can do D,but hardly E flat....

I must confess...I know no Bellini aria "by heart". I have had a run through Meco all ´altar di venere. I sang Pour mon ame on around 13 concerts,but I think I am growing "to old" for that.

[javmex2003]

i think mateuzzi is the only one that hits the f, but i like, merrit more, his high notes are lighter and brighter

[Randidan]

Hmmm ~~ Di Stefano and Pierre Duval [remember him?] did it much better than this crew, circa 1963; one with Callas and the other in the first Sutherland recording... Since this is one of those "The HIghest Note Wins" things, Mateuzzi's 2nd try at it has to be the one, since he's the only one to go for the original high F -- not D-flat like the others! ...and in much better voice than his first stab at it, which sounded awful and only [?] went to D-flat... Fun posting!
