  • My,my,my...aren't we musical expertsHe should have hit a high c...she lacks artistic technique...their performance lacked agility...good grief people!...take your heads out of your asses!Talk about snobby comments!

    Most of you wouldn't recognize a high c if it hit you in the face!

    Why can't you appreciate the fact that there are still some singers that keep opera going?With hip hop and rap music dominating the airwaves,its a pleasure to hear singers like these two.

    So why bash them?

  • @hiloc19 I agree. Most people making these comments have absolutely no musical training whatsoever and are either jealous or cannot perform so they have to criticize.

  • @hiloc19 Wery good comment: He sings the C,but not the A natural...Great singing from both of them. I like to sing the high C also,my video is on youtube.I have not done the role on stage....From Caruso you can ONLY hear studio performance. Today,someone can film you (on a bad day) and put it on the net.....Hard to be a singer today... But still,easier to learn from older singers,lot of recordings.....(Though a lot is a "fake" on them.)

  • Amen

  • @hiloc19 ur right. Not the best of voice, but hey at least they are doing something, as I sit busily critiquing singing that i yet cannot do. FOOLS I TELL YOU!

  • @buyo26 no hombre villazon esta lejos de vargas .. incluso camarena pronto estará por arriba de villazon ..

  • Yes it is a pity when people trash the performers without reason and out of ignorance, but it is true that Puccini composed this duet to be sung in harmony with the soprano singing a piano high C and the tenor coming down to a piano A above middle C. Instead, as with our 2 performers here, today there is the tendency for both to scream their heads off on a high C and all the beauty of the composer's work is lost. Listen to Gedda and Freni or Bjorling and Schymberg and hear real beauty.

  • actually he does sing the C but Netrebko's is much louder, she covers his

  • 42 pessoas são surdas como uma porta.

  • @TheCatcherkid Sorry, but its not meant to be a B natural or a C!!! Its written by the composer as harmony for the tenor! Only the Soprano goes up to the C! Its just done like this for showing off purposes only! You'll find that there are many recordings of this duet where in the middle of the aria its transposed down so the tenor can reach the B natural more easily! As I said it just for showing off! Personally I think it sounds a lot better how it is actually written!

  • Bravo!
