Bruscantini si era specializzato in ruoli brillanti o comici,soprattutto in Rossini,ma in realtà era un grande baritono drammatico e qui ne da una prova magnifica. Purtroppo furono ruoli che frequentò poco,forse per colpa dei teatri. È stato un grande e lo si ricorda poco. In Rigoletto è straordinario!
Splendid singer was sometimes listed as a bass/baritone. I never could figure out why although with apparently a lower extension to his instrument might have been the reason. His timbre seemed to put him in the higher category even though he sang Mozart roles such as FIGARO, DON ALFONSO, & LEPORELLO. He even shows up on an Italian recording of DER FREISCHUTZ singing Kuno (a bass role). Categories are sometimes superfluous so let’s just say he had a fine sound & a wide range of repertoire which he sang beautifully. He also sang FIGARO in the IL BARBIERE as did Herman Prey in both the Rossini & Mozart successfully.
Artista meraviglioso,linea di canto perfetta.

Che eleganza di canto...sembra tutto così facile...
Un autentico maestro.
Sempre Superlativo Assoluto
