Hola partner ! Like you say, time flies 😂 You got it right , he’s 5 years older than Don Plácido . I’m not sure 🤔, it doesn’t say , the soprano is called Adriana Morelli , hey how about I try to upload the full concert 😉 Susana has better tools for long videos 😂 , I think she has powerful computer You said it, every performance or aria sang by another Tenor , I automatically compare him to Domingo and every time I prefer him . On the other hand, I’m kind of worried because I feel like I’m getting demanding 😅 “ It’s him and nobody else! “ 😂 In the future though, I hope I will find a voice ( active ) as good as him although I would be surprised ... Once again Matter of chemistry 😂 I’m watching Manon Lescaut tonight, bought the DVD with Levine and Scotto at the Met (never saw the opera )

@@Sacha_Kudli Saludos amigo, I think that's right, Morelli. Oh I bet a lot of fans would love to enjoy the full concert. It just so happens I have it on disc and just haven't played it in a while. Yeah, I think Susana has quite a set up. A lot of what she's uploaded I've seen already, but here and there she comes up with something new. (Right now, I'm watching Andrea Chenier, 1981, Vienna, one of my favorites with Domingo, it's almost as if the role was written for him.) I know the feeling, I think he's spoiled us! lol I'm going to take my time to feel sad about it. 😄 I give new voices a try here and there and can admire their various gifts, like Fabio Sartori, Javier Camarena, or Juan Diego Flores: nice to listen to, depending on the role, but up to taking Domingo's place? Never. As you say, chemistry as a matter of taste. But as for career achievements and contributions? Domingo will be impossible to match, nevermind top for a very, very long time. Manon Lescaut is an excellent opera and I think you'll really enjoy it. The production you bought is very well done. Tell me what you think after you watch it! 💪🤠🤙

@@uppityglivestockian Andrea Chénier 1981 with Domingo! You must love it 😄 I should watch it as well! Ho i can imagine Sure ! they have nice worm and light voices ( I and I love listening to Flores ) but they do not have the vocal range and the expression of Don Placido. I think what really makes the difference with Domingo compare to other tenors is his vocal range , since he starting as a light baritone , his low range never seems pushed and he’s got the high ones that remanded all those years due to his excellent technique . So he has the possibility of doing any kind of tenor role from Wagner to Rossini . You said it ! 🤠 Ho i forgot to tell you Alejandro! I’ve watched Lohengrin with him! My first Wagner experience with the goat , now that was very very interesting I’ll tell you all about it and I would be more than happy to know your opinion on the subject. Mhhh just finished the first act last night, Puccini is always so enchanted in the beginnings 😂 You have a great day in Texas amigo! ( must be the morning at your house) Hasta la proxima! 👋 ~S

@@Sacha_Kudli Bravo Sacha, pour vous être lancé dans du Wagner avec Domingo comme heldentenor, Lohengrin est parfait pour commencer. Si c'est la toute première fois que vous vous intéressez sérieusement à un opéra de Wagner, il se peut que votre oreille soit brusque, déclarative plutôt que mélodique, gutturale plutôt qu'harmonieuse - c'est du moins ce que j'ai ressenti. Mais, comme lorsque j'ai entendu Shakespeare pour la première fois, j'ai continué à lui donner une chance parce que je savais que les deux auteurs étaient si importants pour l'art humain et que je voulais comprendre et apprécier leurs œuvres. Et je ne voulais pas être un philistin. 😄 Je suis heureux que vous ayez choisi Lohengrin avec Domingo parce qu'il le chante avec un magnifique legato italianisé que Wagner lui-même désirait ardemment entendre chanter sa musique (il l'a dit dans une lettre à sa femme Cosima). Toute personne - y compris les Allemands - qui insiste sur le fait qu'il ne sonne pas assez allemand, qu'il ne prononce pas les arrêts glottaux avec suffisamment d'emphase, se plaint par ignorance. Malheureusement, il y a un bon nombre de pédagogues d'opéra qui, par ignorance, enseignent que Wagner doit être chanté de façon très bourrue, avec un minimum de legato. Quoi qu'il en soit, j'ai hâte de voir ça, en attendant, soyez sages et profitez du reste de Manon Lescaut! ~A.

@@uppityglivestockian Bonsoir mon ami !! Comment ai -je pu rater ce message ! I don’t know if your message is translated or not but your French is excellent 😂 holala !! Shakespeare , 😃 You took the effort of trying and you finally like it , bravo amigo! Absolutely and I do not regret my choice . The maestro was excellent Ho really 🤔 mhhhh interesting Yes indeed, my grand father once told me that he did not enjoy listening to Wagner due to the lack of legato and sweetness that Verdi can do so well . Iv noticed it in Lohengrin , the singers are almost constantly in full voice . Ho damn ! He wrote that to his wife! 😯 . Gracias I could tell that to the haters from now on 😂 I listen to Peter Hofmann’s version ( beautiful voice) but I prefer Domingo’s Latin timbre 😂 I love how when he sings “ In Fernem Land “ , he ads some diminuendo you know 😂😂 For this role in my opinion, he gives Lohengrin an exotic, sensual touch , this knight really does come from a distant land ! Anyway Lohengrin was magnificent, I’m starting with a really good feeling of Wagner. Here’s a little treat amigo 😁 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/atSXhblevtWyl2w.html (Yes I bought the DVD😭)

Hola Booktube ! Yes indeed! I think he did it on purpose

Isn’t it beautiful ! Your right, it may sound weird to say that but for me his voice is so velvet, it’s like a delicious chocolate.

@@Sacha_Kudli Your unhinibited, heartfelt response was a joy to read. I remember once reading about a comparison of Domingo's voice to the sound of a cello- maybe the singer himself made it? But possibly the greatest cellist ever, Rostropovich, said publically that no cello could match the beauty of Placido Domingo's voice.

@@colleencupido5125 thanks ! Really ? absolutely, I’m 18 , Iv loved many singers but never have I heard a timbre as sophisticated and beautiful than Don Placido !

Hola Susana! Muy bien ! I have a look then 😂👌

@@Sacha_Kudli 👍👍👍😸😸😸

You think so ?

Lorin Maazel once said: The conductor conducts and the singer has to sing‼️😃

Yes , it is sung too quicky but Domingo is a great interpreter and it is good in this way too.
