That’s Edgardo. His singing says it all. Now on stage you would have to really work to make it believable, but that’s why we got brains and imagination.
Lovely singing … but here’s my favorite Pav duet:

This is not Edgardo singing, this is GOD singing.
It’s a pity that we so often end up remembering some singers by their last years rather than by the extraordinary singing they did during their peak years.
ah, the good old Norddeutsche Rundfunk. They do have taste in Hamburg.
Simply glorious. There are no tenors alive today who can sing this music quite the same way.
Pure magnificence, around the same vintage as his recording with Sutherland, but this feels more genuine. Probably the more intimate recital setting, and the control on the high B!
Is that Wustman at the piano?
What I noticed was the face; in his later concerts, there was always a sort of deer-in-the-headlights, sort of terrified look in his eyes, and always this wash of relief that swept over him after a successful high note. Here…he’s just SO focused on what he’s doing; it’s like he’s a thousand miles away, but so completely zeroed in on what he’s doing, it’s just incredible. What a voice.
