@onaykk thank you I'll defer to your ear.

@KOProductionsUSA be completely sure about his voice, true bass even not cantabile. Two 3 days ago I was in his Don Carlo with Kaufmann, Halfvarson etc. at Bayerische Statsoper Munich. I was shocked with his voice, because his voice is not even similar to the voice in recordings like this.I used to be think the way like you that he is a bass baritone. However, he has got huge chesty bass voice penetrating over the orchestra. The recordings are tricky, don't trust them.

Mit seinem hellen Bass sehr kultiviert gesungen. Die Arie fordert allerdings mehr Schwärze und ein anderes Timbre. Über diese stimmlichen Qualitäten verfügen Gotttlob Frick und Kurt Moll in weit stärkerem Maß.

In dieser schwierigen Arie, die äußerste Reinheit und Klarheit erfordert eine der schönsten Stimmen und die bestmögliche Phrasierung.
Begeisternd!

@KOProductionsUSA The original calls for him to go up to the E, not down. Following the original music.

Hand. The final d's are spoken as t's.
Sarastro is not a bad guy, agree. But not so good as he thinks he is, either, imho.
We are used to the low E at the end--Pape declines to go there, and I'm sure he could but perhaps not so strongly as true bassi. He is a bass-baritone. the distinction is not so much profundo vs noble as the actual range of the instrument.

What means "Hanttt"?

@guimaul69 He doesn't sing that low and goes above Middle C as well. Not a Basso Profundo at all.
I'm singing this now and I don't really have THAT lower voice. It only goes down to F# that is an octave and a half below Middle C.

@guimaul69 Mmm, fair enough. It's still just really weird to my ear. *shrug*
It's dark concentrate metal that projects everywhere in a hall. He is not a "profundo", he is noble bass.
