“Fortunatissimo per verita” 😊

Wow that’s amazing! 😅

@@nickhiggsthesinger Very bizarre "Gothic" production.....all thr costumes were shades of greys and blacks....except Lucia - in white All very "Rebecca" -- and as a production, it was crap Singers were good mostly. Spyres rocked it - Fra poco was particularly Awesome --- really excellent long-line bel canto. Brenda Rae was ok as Lucia -- Christian van Horn was Raimondo --- Holy Crap!!! In his duet with Lucia, he just ate her up, and i. The Sextet, he Really came througwithout being over-powering....just wish he had more to sing....lol

that's so funny. audience interaction at its finest

Thats a sign of a true performer right there. The audience is totally justified in criticizing a performance (so long as they dont get outright cruel/aggressive, of course). Pavarotti once said the La Scala crowds, who outright JEER if you mess up, were some of the truest opera fans, and the ones he tried to impress the most because he could feel the passion they had for Opera and wanted to really give them the amazing performance they deserved to see. Never got upset, he took it gracefully and simply tried as hard as he could to really nail it. I always did get that impression from Spyres as well, so Im not surprised he can handle it. Hes also super controversial for his "You should be able to manipulate the overtone profile/timbre and expand your voice enough to sing across at least a couple different fachs" thing (he HATES the Fach system lol), so he's probably more used to it even than most singers I suppose. FWIW I dont even understand why thats controversial. Why was domingo only allowed to sing Baritone roles once he "retired" from tenor ones? If he always had the capability why couldnt he sing both at the same point of his career? It is a fairly new concept as well, so its not like its against ancient tradition or anything right? I mean Rossini wouldnt write multiple roles as A2-D5 if he didnt think only the C3-5 tenors should be singing tenor roles. And obviously you should be able to do multiple. If you can sing Verdi you can learn to sing older bel canto stuff, or lighter tenor roles. Just...learn the technique for each lol

Hahaha yes. Bold move, but I like it.

I’ve seen his crazy high F video once but I’ll check his other videos out. thanks!

@@nickhiggsthesinger that would be awesome. Have you heard / seen his duets with Lawrence Brownlee they made a record with belcanto duets ... breathtaking. and while I am at it telling you what to do (you know I am kidding, don't you) how about some Franco Fagioli 😁

My pleasure! So happy you enjoyed it 🙂

I know! Incredible

It’s called a bass baritone, the vocal range is at the lower end of the baritone voice bordering into bass, you can essentially sing in the bass and baritone range, same with the baritenor, the fach system determines what roles in operas will suit your voice, not necessarily what voice type you have

So good !!!

He is a tenor…

@@TheBaritonoAssoluto not a tenor, not clarion enough

​@angusmcallister111 He IS a tenor, go listen to him in tenor aria like Asile héréditaire

@angusmcallister111 and @TheBaritonoAssoluto I caught an interview where he told the interviewer he was a natural baritone with some high range that he spent years working to get all the way into tenor.

Wouldn't help me. I couldn't read fast enough. 😂

the best

Not quite sure. It probably has something to do with the fact that it was recorded for television and also amplified in the room

Because he walked into the auditorium singing, and it was on TV.

👋🏻

It’s not really question of whether or not he can sing - of course he can! The focus here is “What is he doing right?” and “How can we replicate what he does to improve our own singing?”

@@nickhiggsthesinger I understand Nick) It's just little bit funny) You are a great man)

Wow what a voice!

Yes this old singer probably had an excellent natural voice to start with. My voice teacher told me at my first singing lesson: « you have a very nice voice, now you have to learn how to sing! » Having a nice voice is not enough to sing opera. You need an excellent technique as well and it takes ten years of hard work. This old singer had an excellent technique and this is what makes all the difference. Mr Spyres has a nice and pleasant voice. But this is not operatic singing, this is crooning. His voice is under developed (like most opera singers these days) and does not have enough core and chest resonance. With proper technique his projection would be twice as big (if not more) and he would not need two microphones to be heard even with a large orchestra in a large hall. Also his vocal timbre and tone would be much richer and bright.

Nah that one was like so hard sounded, but I like this one so smooth and enjoyable

Pity, no legato...
