I wish someone would put up some scenes from the Met production of the opera several years ago. Florez was paired with a Russian contralto who was every bit his equal. It would be nice if he would sing it again, perhaps with DiDonato. It is certainly one of Rossini's best operas.

Simpatico il basso, ma canta Mustafà senza agilità, con vocione granitico e gusto obsoleto, davvero quasi inascoltabile. Soprattutto se affiancato a Florez per il quale, in questo repertorio, non esistono superlativi adeguati.

no my favorite part, but both singers are great, they did their best in this opera.

Horrible bass... Do enjoyed the tenor though :o)
-
florez is amazing as always , but the bass got only the color of mustafà nothing else
-
and with a movie star face:-)

JDF is wonderful...

I enjoyed this duet and I am not all that keen on JDF. I can find no fault in him but, with the notable exception of the legendary Tito Schipa, I just don't much like the tenore di grazia voice.

Florez is great here. 28 years old and simply magnificent in voice and in appearance. When you have the finest lyric tenor voice in a movie star body what more can you want?
