I have never before seen the psychological reality of these characters brought to life so vividly and painfully. It's almost too hard to watch. So well done. Perfect.
This is definitely Verismo at its bravest. What a fine duet!!! Two wonderful artists who convey with the acting and their voices the true meaning of "Cavalleria". It was fantastic to see they physical desire and passion they portray,as well as his clear intentions to get away from her. This is the best acted "Cavalleria" I have heard and seen in a long time.
He does!!! I saw him so often on stage and never get enough of his performances. A very good Cavalleria with Waltraud, he is my best Turridu ever, I have the DVD. So passionate and sexy! Bravissimo! Sempre!
This video should require an apology from all the people who dump on Cura. This is Verismo at its FINEST!!! Regardless of time period. Waltrud Meier as well, while both have strage vocal production both flow directly from their hearts to their audience. This is the very essense of why I live for this stuff.
La verdad, no entiendo por qué critican muchos a Cura. Supongo que es porque tiene una técnica y forma de cantar muy especial. Pero para mí es muy bueno. Aquí ambos están bárbaros.
I had the priviledge to see this guy on opening night in his American debut as Canio in Pagliacci. Man, not only does he look good but his voice is freakishly wonderful. I guess you could say he's a good successor to the late and great Pavarotti.
Looks like the German mezzo Waltraud Meier. She is known for high dramatic mezzo roles like this one and Isolda which is has sung a number of times in Bayreuth
When Cura sang his first Otello in Argentina, he said to an interviewer "I'm not going to sing Otello sceraming as Del Monaco did". Cura got one of the worst reviews appearing in OPERA magazine
Falta coloratura en la voz, desprendimiento de rubaties, opaco. ventila mucho y no apoya , no convence! creo que si no grita el vibrato no llegaria a proyectarse uf muchas cosas.
This man has more power, range,and clarity than any other !
He Will.....get the recognition he deserves World Wide.

100% true words. For me it feels the same - even after watching it 18.267 times.

Being not a real opera fan: this is fantastic!! Thanks for posting this. Yes this Santuzza is magnificent.
Absolutely first class duet.
While I'm by now used to Ms. Meier delivering electrifying performances this performance by Mr. Cura was a revelation...
Two great artists singing together.
Excellent!!!!!!!!
OMG - Amazing passion in this exchange.
He does!!!

Consumate artistry! Cura is one of my favourite tenors - He delivers the whole package!

Bine ai venit la Bucuresti, Jose!
Cura is the perfect Turiddu!! He is awesome!!

Dope!!! He should always sing this !
Marvellous !
Cura before he completely lost his voice. 😿What a God!!

José...:)
Onbeskryflik mooi!
Who is she?
Cura es unico, fantastico y ella es Waltraud Meier, buena mezzo alemana, aunq no es idiomatico su italiano.
When Cura sang his first Otello in Argentina, he said to an interviewer "I'm not going to sing Otello sceraming as Del Monaco did".

Je vous dis pas les remontées de bouffe mal digérée. J'espère pour eux qu'ils ont des bains de bouche surpuissants.
evidentemente este pobre q aqui se hace llamar caruso no entiende nada de opera
Un Cura in ottima serata. Peccato se avesse mantenuto questa linea di canto ora staremo a parlare di un altro artista.

Cura is singing well. But acting...? What this Turriddu want a feel? Why does he kiss Santuzza?
comparar a caruso con cura es como comparar a Dios con un argentino...

Santuzza has a too small of a voice for this. I dont like her color for this role. and he is well as always, over covered
