    Thanks for this great analysis of the most perfect rendition ever in history of Largo Al Factotum by Dmitri. He is the most perfect and greatest baritone of our time. His Italian language is perfectly pronounced as if he were an Italian himself. Unsurpassed in all Verdi opera's he sang and played and the rendition of his russian romances and war songs are sublime, never seen by anyone else! Everything he touches changes into gold. Five years already and we miss him beyond measure, beloved Dmitri! 🙏❤️🙏

    I am Italian, from what I have interpreted it is that Dimitri has studied not only singing, but he has also studied Italian and comedy tenses and the typical speech (tone) of Italian theater actors
    speaking and add it to the song like an Italian badass comedian is not something you learn in a year.

    I recently saw a Live in HD Summer Encore of "Eugene Onegin" at my local Regal theater, and I swear, I'd never known Dmitri Hvorostovsky before and immediately fell in love with everything about him. An actual legend of a performer. Like, I imagine if Apollo had an avatar on Earth, it would've been in the form of Dmitri. I wish I'd known about him sooner and had been able to see him perform live at the Met for real.

    Complimenti per il tuo italiano e la tua disamina molto interessante e istruttiva. Gradirei molto che tu potessi farlo anche per altri pezzi d'opera di Hvorostovsky che poi passò ai melodramma di Verdi, carichi di pathos e sentimenti. Indimenticabili anche i duetti che fece con altri colleghi, con Pavarotti, con Jonas Kaufmann in particolare la canzone "O sole mio" nella quale mi pare d'aver capito, che si siano scambiati i ruoli di tenore e baritono. Ci sarebbe molto da sentire e le tue spiegazione gli darebbero un interesse anche maggiore!

La sua è un'esibizione, quella di Hvorostovsky è un'interpretazione. Questa è un'opera buffa e Hvorostovsky trasmette perfettamente questo carattere brioso e ironico di Figaro e riesce anche a sorridere mentre canta. Secondo me è il massimo!

    I prefer Thomas Hampson's Largo Al Factotum, not that he has one of the most pronounced baritone voices. But he has a very light voices which flows well in this type of repertoire. Hvorostovsky also had a light lyrical voice, but he applied fake darkness to the voice, making it less suitable. Another great version is of from Apollo Granfotre who does an excellent version as a dramatic baritone.

    Nick, hi! It would be very interesting, if you react to soviet baritone Muslim Magomaev, singing Figaro. The special thing of that performance: Muslim was mostly known as a pop-singer, but had an extraordinary baritone voice and made also few recordings of opera arias. Galina Vishnevskaya, well-known opera singer, once regretted, that he didn't become opera baritone. And watching his Figaro, you can understand, why she was upset) Just check "Muslim Magomaev - Figaro"

    To be clear, the video you have of him singing is NOT from the Cardiff Singer of the World competition.

    Here’s a link to Kudaibergen’s initial introduction to the world. This was 2017 when he was 22. The Chinese social media exploded with over 800 million (!) stunned reactions. He’s recorded worldwide, and recently passed or is passing his PhD finals in musicology in his home country. Interesting biography. th-cam.com/video/JEz1qGS0T1Q/w-d-xo.html

    no matter how good I was, or how professional I was, I would NEVER have the balls to critique or breakdown, or discuss or anything done by Hvorostovsky.

      He’s a fascinating study. Great voice, and apparently was a great person.

      This was an explanation of the technical difficulties of this aria, whilst being sung by one of the greatest baritones and was full of admiration / respect.
