    Jussi Björling was one the greatest tenors of the 20th century and was greatly admired by Pavarotti. His musicianship, beautiful, clear tone and ease of delivery in the upper register counts him as the one of the greatest exponents of this famous aria. His slow rendition is awe inspiring.

    • @jimdrake3436
      @jimdrake3436 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +23

      In my interview sessions with him, Pavarotti said that the careers of two tenors-Jussi Bjoerling, a Swede, and Richard Tucker, an American-proved that a tenor did not have to be Italian to sing verismo roles.

      I agree Lisa, there has never been a voice like Pavarotti and may never be again. So after Luciano I will go with Jussi Bjorling, Mario Lanza and Kaufmann. I thought Kaufman was outstanding but being a neophyte when it comes to Opra, I haven't heard enough of him to make a good judgement.

    Pavarotti for sure. Then for me Mario Lanza. These were the two that made me feel it and believe the HEART was singing that it had victory, not just the "head" saying yay I won! Though honestly? I have heard a better Pavarotti version than the one from the film he did that you had here or from the Three Tenors.

      @FrozenMaximus 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Exatamente isso. E não tem nada a ver com o quanto tempo ele segura. A leveza como ele sobe e desce nas melodias é que faz o diferencial pra tudo parecer um passeio único nesse "vincerò" final. O mesmo falo sobre o JONAS KAUFMANN que impõe muito poder sem precisar de lombadas entre as melodias. Mas esta música pertence ao PAVAROTTI em todos os sentidos.

      . On average Lanza may have been best, but in his prime, it was Pavarotti.

He does not scream, does not show off, does not put his ego on the stage. He is fully dedicated to the song and the story. Plus, he has tremendous knowledge and control on his voice. I feel so lucky to be able to listen to him singing.

      He said that he had to hold it to the count of 12 or the audience felt cheated. I attend and also listen to a lot of opera. I am addicted to counting now and it is not uncommon for many A - level tenors and sopranos today to reach 12 or slightly more. But there is more involved in it than just the time duration.

    Since watching this a few days ago, I have been watching videos of Jonas Kaufman, the German opera singer, and I have decided that (in my opinion) he actually has my vote as the best!! He has a really strong voice but there's some real texture to it as well! He's super good!!

    I sang with the Collegiate Chorale in NYC. We were the chorus for the Pavarotti plus concerts and the Richard Tucker Galas at Lincoln Center. You have no idea what its like to be on the stage with Pavarotti. There really are no words. How lucky was I to join that Chorus and then be chosen to be Pavarotti's chorus. After the broadcast was over, the audience wouldnt let him leave. Standing ovation with at least 5 curtain calls, sometimes up to 8. Nessum Dorma is his signature song. There is no one who can sustain the ending as long as he can with one breath. Im sitting behind him and tears are rolling down my face, One night, the energy that came up from the audience felt like a wind. Astounding. Pavarotti can hold the note much longer than what was on this tape. Pavarotti is the best when it comes to Nessum Dorma. IMO, he is the best Tenor. His tone, vibrato, voice placement and sustain is unsurpassed. He was in a league of his own and will be forever. RIP Maestro Pavarotti.

    Jussi Björling hands down, when Pavarotti was asked about his methods he said "When I'm about to train a new opera, I first listen to how Jussi Björling did it. His voice was unique and it's his path that I want to follow. I would more than anything else wish that people compared me with Jussi Björling. It's like so I'm striving to sing.".

      This one was hard... It is almost a toss up between Lanza and Pavarotti... I think the better quality of the acoustics during Pavarotti's era was what makes him sound just a whisker better; but, if the acoustic equipment was the same then it is an absolute tie.
