Cesare Siepi sings the magnificent bass aria from Verdi's I Vespri Siciliani, from a TV appearance in 1957. The voice is not only gorgeous, but the wonderful "buzz" that projected the Siepi voice so well is clearly audible on this video.

  • To me Siepi belongs in that class of singer that far outreaches the norm. He is in a class with Corelli, MacNeil, London, Nielsson,Caruso,Ruffo etc. These voices were so extraordinary as to no longer be limited by human resources. This is truly Great Stuff!

  • + 100 !!! IMMORTALE !!! GRAZIE !

  • The Great immortal Cesare Siepi in one of his great signature roles. Phenomenal artistry, and the most amazing vocal control.

  • Phenomenal. Perfect singing and artistry. Of course the voice is one in a million, as well.

  • Phenomenal. Perfect singing and artistry.

  • One of the great singers. Siepi had a magnificent technique, including a very wide range, to support his huge sound, as beautiful as it was resonant:) --

  • He sounds like Homer Simpson @ 3:45

  • @Mumsilius Maybe we're not using the same definition of fexibility and agility. i'm talking about the kind of flexibility and agility needed to sing coloratura, as in the coloratura bass roles of Rossini or the role of Argante in the Handel opera Rinaldo. Ramey's version of Argante's entrance aria is on YT. Type in Samuel Ramey: Sibilar gli angui d'Aletto to hear it. His Assur from Semiramide is also on YT.
