Thank you for posting. I just love everything luciano. He opens his mouth and my heart melts.

this aria gives me goosebumbs , and im a rocker.

so nice to get so much information regarding vocal techniques. quiet impressive! also, how much effort is needed to create architecture to give opera a home, both in design and accoustic.

Junto a Beniamino Gigli, Pavarotti es mi tenor favorito. 🙏

Freni was like a sister for Pavarotti. They grew up together This makes the atmosphere so special. And as you said his voice has so much qualities. His warm and bright timbre, his clear pronunciation, the natural interpretation of the music, his breathing technique, his perfect legato amd the volume make his voice unique. Combined with his passion for the music and his charismatic personality it's an emotional experience He lives the character and you feel it in every note.

The version you reacted to is not in the original tone, It's lower, as Pavarotti got older I think he lost the ability to hit such high notes because when he was young he sang the arias in it's original tone, but when he was old he always sang them half a tone lower for some reason

Far from his best rendering but, no one can match this singer vocally, and, that incredible unique sound.

Ciao

Dear Taylor If I hadn’t got that impression before, this reaction to me proves that you kind of fill a gap with what music you present and how. While I definitly WON‘T claim any share in taking La Boheme it does feel nice to find you reacting on something I mentioned in a previous comment. It is so much fun and pleasure to dive into your content. Hope more folks will join ! I also deeply appreciate several comments I’ve read. People coming from most different kinds of music finding that there is other ‚stuff‘ one can like. Personally I like Nightwish very much (as well as Aurora, Lara Fabian, Queen, …) and think Tuomas (keys) is a somewhat ‚underrated‘ composer. The wide span of his songs (‚Ghost Love Score‘ (Wacken live), ‚Greatest Show on Earth‘ including Richard Dawkins (Tampere live), ‚Storytime‘ (Wacken live) to ‚Music‘, ‚Shoemaker‘ on Human :II: Nature album and ‚All The Work Of Nature That Adorn The World‘ including citations from Lord Byron as well as Carl Sagan just blow my mind. As do those two awesome ladies - Simone Simons and Floor Jansen - on Epica’s Retrospect concert singing ‚Sancta Terra‘ as well as Pergolesi’s ‚Stabat Mater Dolorosa‘ to a „metal-head“ crowd. See the applause of those guys for an old church-song performed in Latin. This is what I call music-enthusiasm which makes me very optimistic for real good music to survive the times of (SORRY, only my opinion) some/too much (?) „disposible music“ played up and down on various radio stations. To you all, keep and cherish your personal preferences, but perhaps be open for more and different tunes and voices. Thank you Taylor !!! Good to have you while I’ll continue to be passionate follower of the very first channel that hit me: Elizabeth’s The Charismatic Voice. Broadened my horizon. Approaching Christmas slowly and for the upcoming Advent below just a little very old song from Germany we use to sing in church as well as home in the family. Performed in Norwegian by Aurora. NOT for reaction but perhaps for a personal quiet moment in this often loud and hectic times. Stay all well ! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hqeUocx4ydSWpn0.html May be someone likes it. I do.

You could have picked a better performance, for example the one with Karajan as the conductor, he didn't even hit the do5, he singed a si4 here
