This is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. On both ends. I resonate with this video so much as a 21 year old tenor struggling with the same things Jose is here.
Bravo Jose Romero, beautiful voice and thank you Joyce DiDonato for your brilliant insights and your ability to share and teach these! I shall watch everything I can find of yours! CHEERS!
She makes such a good point about his 'innate musicality'...it really is obvious. It's true, I just want to listen to him because he communicates the music so well....though not perfected yet. Bravo!
Don't get me wrong, considering he is only 22 and still in training, he has a splendid natural sound! However, every time i listen to his voice (regardless if he sings or speaks) I feel a certain urge which I can't explain and I have to clear my throat. He sounds very constricted in some ways. I hope this is something that goes away with some more practice and learning.
i guess Im randomly asking but does anybody know a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the login password. I love any tips you can offer me
@Cairo Cory i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
he is very young and has a beautiful voice. He needs a teacher who teaches him to breathe and support his voice with his diaphragm and pelvis. The rest of it comes all by itself, but that's a tough job.
WOW, she is really good and nurturing unlike my teacher who is all over my neck and wants to trample me every time i sound spread and thin...IN GOLOTA INGOLOTA...haha. anyway...so amazing...this guys cant be 22 and sing this well...at 22 I was still singing Drink to me with Thine eyes...=../
Matt White, another young tenor is wonderful as well. There was a time like when Caruso sang and earlier, made debuts in their early 20s singing standard roles. Fedora Barbieri was singing Azucena and Amneris at 21. Rosa Ponselle was 18 when she was hired to sing Leonora in La Forza del Destino.
the tenor has very good material and potencial.but....very constricted sound high larynx and no deep breathing.find a good teacher my friend who knows about chest voice and how to develop it.i am also a lyric tenor and i had the same problems like u...and solve them but i started again from zero point
I understand he is young and still in training, but this was a car wreck IMHO. Very little legato, and poor phrasing at times (which Joyce D. seems to interpret as ‘making the aria his own’) He was flat at times, and the last note was a combination of on pitch, flat, and sharp. Oy vey! It’s fine to praise, but Joyce D. flatters him and anoints him with sugary speech. Where is her technical constructive criticism that may actually be of some help to him? She binds any critique in banal platitudes which are of absolutely no use for the student. In this limited time frame, the teacher should be obligated to offer guidance on one point for the student. The fellow has great potential, but I fear DiDonato left him with the impression he was the new (insert your favorite tenor here). He did not fail her; she failed him.
Her job isn't that of a voice teacher. Her job is to give him talking points that he can work on in addition to anything else his teacher feels he needs to work on. I do hear some grit in his sound that could set him up for troubles in the future, or affect the longevity. I hope his teacher is making sure his technique is solid. He might be too young for this aria, Mozart might be better. He sounds kinda like Rolando Villazon.
I dont agree at all. As usuel, JdD insists on the positive points to give him more trust in himself. But after the real work begins. From 9.52 (did you hear until that point ?) to the end. A gréât masterclass.
Ese "tenor" parece que no ha estudiado absolutamente nada, no tiene resueltas muchas cosas básicas, no canta legato ni elegante y esto estaría resuelto si acostumbrara a estudiar las obras sólo con vocales al principio y cuando está todo ligado, bonito, homogéneo y en su sitio cada cosa, añadir las consonantes. Tampoco apoya bien por eso se cae a veces alguna sílaba y arruina todo. No cubre bien el sonido... Mamma mia!
Estoy de acuerdo contigo baldmetal. Tiene problemas de afinación, y la zona aguda no la tiene resuelta. Pero la Sra. DiDonato no tiene en cuenta esas cosas. Entonces ¿para que vale una masterclas como esta? .......
@@enriquepazescudero4536a masterclass is not a voice lesson…. Very simple. Its not her place to talk about this. His teacher will be the one to break the news to him. And more so his career turned out to be bright abd his voice is now heard across the world. Just because you got to witness his beginnings doesn’t mean thats his ends.
@@TheBaritonoAssolutoquite right. Unfortunately there is a lot of envy and catty behaviour online from the armchair critics who like to style themselves as opera experts.
And five years later he sounds absolutely incredible and gives some of the best vocal advice for the tenor voice I have ever heard!
she's the most incredible, didactic and sweetest teacher ever!
This is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. On both ends. I resonate with this video so much as a 21 year old tenor struggling with the same things Jose is here.
This is a voice to look out for!!!! Wonderful talent.
Joyce Di Donato - so fantastic pedagogue and teacher, and so deeply human! And Jose Simerilla Romero, what a marvelous and so promising voice.
Wonderful tenor voice. Didonato is a perfect teacher, so amazing and with a big understanding.
Bravo Jose Romero, beautiful voice and thank you Joyce DiDonato for your brilliant insights and your ability to share and teach these! I shall watch everything I can find of yours! CHEERS!
Joyce is a great great great teacher!!!
I must say that I really liked this class. I had so much fun watching. Thank you.
We're glad you enjoyed this master class. Thank you for watching.
He's a very passionate singer. Yes there may be technical issues that need work, but overall it's a beautiful voice
She makes such a good point about his 'innate musicality'...it really is obvious. It's true, I just want to listen to him because he communicates the music so well....though not perfected yet. Bravo!
glorious teacher!
Gorgeous voice!
so good, love all her classes. *shakes straw in the air* "it works!" haha.

Keep in mind, this is a class for learning and not a performance or finished product

@Cairo Cory It worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account!
I LOVE how technical this is!
This young man (22) doesn’t scoop up like most tenors these days. Wonderful and he has a falsetto like Jonas Kauffman. I love that.
Complimenti dalla terra del bel canto. Le “Marche”
She's such an entertainer.
I'll never forget when Joyce told me she wasn't a singing teacher, and unprepared to teach. How things change.
a young tenor singing high note with falsetto.
To sound confidently, especially the high notes
Forza!!!
he is very young and has a beautiful voice. He needs a teacher who teaches him to breathe and support his voice with his diaphragm and pelvis. The rest of it comes all by itself, but that's a tough job.
My suggestion would be Jack Li Vigni. I've had a few of his singers perform on concerts I've organized, and they're quite wonderful.
@@clefnoteproductions6695he worked with Jack some years ago, did his hard work and now sings excellent!

Woofy and constricted

This is a masterclass and not a voice lesson. IMHO, if this were a voice lesson, this clip wouldn't be on YT in the first place.
@@ChristopherPettersen mō, je dösen‘t at all
Thank you everyone commenting because AS SINGERS we know a masterclass is not the place for that…. And im glad we all can agree that.

Este tenor no tiene solucionado el registro agudo y además desafina. Una pena.
