Очень согласен. Я фанат Дмитрия. Его голос совершенный.

I think it was better performed here personally: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r86jgrKGz5zWY2w.html Note: This video is 2nd best though.

He didn't need to imagine that though, since he sure had seen a mile better performances during his life.

@@grouchomarx5609 It's hard for me to expect that he had SEEN a better performance since the traditional operatic performance of the old times wasn't blasted with brilliant acting, maybe he had HEARD a better performance through!

The scene may be great but the singing is terrible

​@@grouchomarx5609может и так. Но как хочется, что бы он увидел Хворостовского. Эта постановка его бы не разочаровала

Wonderful baritone.

DH was past his prime anyway, he breathes twice during the central run

@@rogerpropes7129 far from being past his prime, this was performed during his golden years! He does seem to have trouble catching his breath in that run I will give you that. There could have been any number of reasons for this including conditions in the auditorium that evening or maybe over exerting in the fight! Anyway, I have the dvd of this so I watched it this evening. Afterwards I decided to look at the extra section. I learned a few things there. This was the first time Dmitri sang this role. The swords they were swinging around weigh a couple of kilos! Cura explained how hard it was for a singer to do these scenes where they fight and sing at the same time. He said that for the physical exertion you breathe at the top of your lungs and for singing you breathe from the bottom of your lungs and that it was difficult to coordinate it oftentimes. That actually perfectly describes Dmitri’s two quick breaths because, unusually for him, he didn’t draw in huge lungful of air, as he usually did . But, whatever happened, there was no need to pass any unpleasant comment (which seems to be your trademark). If you don’t like something, just scroll on by. I always think if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. It was a moment‘s blip in the whole opera where he was outstanding...and the audience agreed. Finally, as you are no doubt aware, Dmitri lost his fight with brain cancer in 2017 and is no longer with us. What you might not be aware of is he has a young family and the two youngest children come onto these videos from time to time and I don’t think it‘s a nice thing for them to read rude, personal comments about him. There are a couple of other guys who just come on with negative impolite comments too and I direct this at all of you, and wherever and on whomever you write such comments....just think, would you like your family to read what you wrote about you? If the answer is no, don’t write it.

@@lesleywilbourne7823 very well said💞

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r86jgrKGz5zWY2w.html this one has Sondra Radvanosky, Marcelo Álvarez and Dmitri Hvorostovsky but the ROH's one is still pretty good

@@pugh.joseph Thank you!

@@sarahc3977 np :)

Yh, and this one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r86jgrKGz5zWY2w.html

Ahahahahahaha

.добавить.ты.проссти.но.я.полюбила.тебя.и.поняла.тебя.посмертно.и.сейчас.ты.со.мною.навсегда.

Für dich vielleicht.

Agreed! Verdi's characters are undeniably human, and that is why I love his operas.

Also, in La Traviata, I believe that the true response of "Un di felice" from Alfredo is actually responded through the aria "Ah forse lui...Sempre Libera" because it is to themselves that people answer honestly. And in reality as we see in Act II Violetta's unsure answer to herself tips to Alfredo's pursuation of "...Amor che palpito del universo intero..."

Not exactly "forgiven". In the scene with Azucena, he explains that a strange force seemed to stop him, and he heard a voice say, "non ferir". (Don't strike.) The implication at the end of the opera, after Azucena has confirmed that Manrico is di Luna's brother, is that this was a heavenly guardian sent to stop him from fratricide. Savvy theatrical effect by Verdi, who was not only a great humanist, but also a shrewd man of the theatre.

Ne è convinto???

Io ne sono convinta ❤️💓

Indubbiamente, peccato che il cantato sia pessimo

And in this one too 👍 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r86jgrKGz5zWY2w.html

Creo que al tratarse de una filmación se ha empleado un sistema de sonido similar al que se utiliza en el cine.

L'unico commento sensato.. grazie

Si, pero Dmitri es mas lindo que J.C. y aqui lo dejamos ganar,OK?

No. In this opera, the villain wins, both this time and at the end of the opera. But Azucena's revenge is that he has to live with the knowledge that he killed his brother. Regarding this fight, you see that Manrico pauses when he has the blade to di Luna. This gives di Luna the chance to strike and leave him for dead. In the next act, he explains to Azucena that a heavenly force stopped him from killing di Luna.

SuperDarchangel I suspect it has to do with how physical the staging is. It's remarkable, really remarkable, that they got through this trio as well as they did.

to be honest i don't think the rit. midway through the trio helped any of them either there are ways to have very physical staging of material this demanding but This Ain't It Chief

@@Mousy677 I think this one is the best personally: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r86jgrKGz5zWY2w.html

A me invece duello piace. Al meno provano uccidersi. Non solamente cantare colla spada in mano.

Non capisci un bel niente...

È una scena tremenda dal punto di vista del cantato. Questa è opera, non siamo al cinema

ezayi they both sound pretty terrible in my opinion. Hvorostovsky sounds like he'a gasping for air and his voice has no ring its not fit for Verdi baritone roles in my opinion. Sounds very forced. He is a terrific actor, though, but there are so many better recordings of this

jacob lahr If one want to hear perfect singing and a perfect recording one should listen to a CD - and not watch a life performance... The guys do an outstanding job here with singing WHILE fighting - instead just standing there like boring singers do. This scene can just be admired!

dalangie While this scene is certainly very exciting, I take issue with your use of the word "boring". Verdi's music is NEVER boring. Opera is primarily a vocal art for vocal athletes. The drama is intended to be carried by the voices, by singers who are technically skilled enough to squeeze all the nuance and meaning out of the score. Pavarotti and Sutherland stood still as they sang, concentrated all effort into vocal perfection flying out into the audience. Hundreds of thousands will assure you that they were NEVER boring!

They all are doom! Barking dogs.

Listen to this one instead then: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r86jgrKGz5zWY2w.html

William Battaglini.

William Battaglini il taglio di capelli di J. Cura è invece ok?.

He was the greatest and his hair was the most beautiful addition to his character! He was so different from the rest of the singers! And the rest sounded great with him!!

William Battaglini What about Cura’s hair?

Oh sure that's it, every male needs to look like they work at a gas station.

Vergogna sei tu. In tutto il mondo si venera a Cura.

Lei a ragione, da non credere che abbia fato carriera ....
