  • Have to say, I SERIOUSLY love the vibrato in his voice. Like a refined Lauri Volpi. Really excellent.

  • wonderful voice --he sounds like caruso. great performance - I went to the repeat performance at fathom events. both calleja and dessay were unbelievable.

  • The poor sound on this recording( not to mention the appalling conducting )does no justice to this remarkable tenor, the finest in the world today and a true successor to the legendary Bjorling. Go to La Traviata from Covent Garden on youtube, in an outstanding recording, to hear how really fabulous he is, with a conductor who knows how opera should be performed.

  • uhm...is anyone else listening to the same video I am...there is a crazy flutter in his voice. Ive never heard this from him before now. I came to listen because im learning this aria...but seriously listen closer. It isnt just a fast vibrato.

  • Gorgeous!

  • If you like him on video, do what you can to see him live. I was at this performance and it was stunning.

  • Beautiful voice. Great musicality.

  • I saw it yesterday and the whole production was awesome. I am now a fan of Calleja's.

  • Sorry, I agree with petion2010, very much reminiscent of Jussi Bjorling

  • I agree with @longstre, very much reminiscent of Jussi Bjorling, superb voice.

  • @longstre I don't know, I think his style is more reminiscent of Jussi Bjorling .
