The young Carreras and early Verdi were a match made in heaven. Sensational.
Stupendo!
He was such a perfect Verdi singer! Thank you for posting this clip! (And for the Granada encore)
il grande Carreras cantava veramente con il cuore!!!!! nella sua voce si coglie sempre una grandissima espressività!!!!!! emozionante!!!!
Gran Maestro Carreras, que linea, que perfeccion en la expresion, y la voz siempre sul fiato, y bien colocada, maravilloso, oir a un gran cantante, para mi Jose Carreras es un gran señor del bel canto!!! Bravo Maestro!
I keep finding clips of this wonderful concert - he was in stunning form that night
This is a fairly early Carreras performance and he is fantastic here. Beautiful tone and breath control.
bravissimo Maestro!!!Super!!!Fantastic!!!
tres belle interpretation sur une musique de toute beautee comme seul savait ecrire le grand verdi
Grande Maestro,Unico !!!!!!!
Always moved by his exceptional ardour
Fantastic!!! Gràcies mestre, quina joia de veu. Gracies
Agree with you. Your last sentence describes it better than your first one: One thing is to look for "expansion" of the voice, but another thing is to PUSH the voice, which distorts it and shatters it's flexibility. Nowadays everybody is pushing and loosing their voices in a couple years, very sad scenario...
he was the most beautiful lyric tenor at that time, he did take too many heavy roles later, I also love the america tenor Neil Schicoff, he did not PUSH, and his ringing tone stays quite long long time,
Straordinario! Punto e basta.
This was recorded about five years after some critics began reporting that Carreras had "lost his voice." Yeah, right! True, he might have misplaced it from time to time, but he found it for this concert.
Magnificent!
IL DIO!!!!!!GRAZIE MAESTRO !!!
I agree one hundred per cent!
Pundits always lecture young tenors like Di Stefano or Carreras not to push lest they damage their gift. Yet you will notice, young tenors continue to push. Why? Because that's how you grow your voice. Margison and Bonisolli started with small voices but kept pushing until they had very big voices indeed. All of these tenors added power and brilliance as they lost some vocal sweetness. Alas some tenors do lose their voices while trying to expand - but not Carreras. He just got sick.
Very good!!!
che poesia
El unico que maravilla bravisimoooooo
@Rospaint AMEN to those words!
@65attila People often compare Carreras with Di Stefano but they were not very similar. Di Stefano did indeed know how to cover but he chose not to and his over open top soon deteriorated - just as everyone at the time said it would. Th myth is that he was ignorant of vocal technique. Not so - he was willful not ignorant. In any case Carreras does cover and always has. He may or may not have had vocal problems other than leukemia but if so they weren't caused by him singing like Di Stefano.
@Agorante
I have just listined to a recital by DiStefano in 1952 age 31. Already strain and harshness are evident and some here wirh Carreras here in a basically excellent performance. I think Gigli and Bjoerling are better models for vocal longevity.
@HoHeave
But man that`s really niot true,how can you said that,that is just stupid!!
