Amazing, takes a lot of skill and talent to sing such huge interval leaps so beautifully and smoothly without even the slightest break, not to mention those trills in such a high register sound so majestic and clean. I can't say I'm less than impressed, truly some of the best singing I've ever heard.
Thank you Michael for this gift from heaven….you are the only one who‘s able to sing Mozart in the way it‘s meant to be….for sure he is proud of you 🌹🌹🌹
How a human can achieve this level of beauty and perfection is beyond me. I felt as if I was floating above the earth for five wonderful minutes listening to this.
Wow! This is his best interpretation of this challenging early Mozart aria. This could not be better (it is perfect, IMO), but Spyres never stops to amaze me, so let's wait.
Indeed. This is hands down my absolute favorite along with the one and only Bruce Ford. They both share the same incredible technical traits. Years and years of hard work to get to this level of singing and calmness..
@@niklasdefries I agree with you regarding Bruce Ford. I heard him in this role in one of his last performances. It was in Brussels, but I don't remember the year.
Michael Spyres is the greatest Mitridate I have had the pleasure of hearing. No vocal shortcuts, and yet all the authority the title role requires. We’re lucky to have him.
This is a star performance. I’ve noted some fairly negative comments in various postings of his videos (not this one) that I don’t understand. Either my knowledge and experience of operatic arias over the past 40 years is a bit wonky, or others may just take delight in being negative for its own sake.
Among other things, I have heard Spyres sing Handel and now Mozart. Dazzling technique and exceptional energy. The greatest living male classical singer. I think about Jussi Bjorling when he sings.
As much as I respect the Maestro, Mozart, I think he had a deep, internal, boiling hatred for tenors as evidenced by this piece. It is so impossible, difficult and heinously at the limit of vocal range. I have never heard anything as beautiful and so expertly done in my life!
"Baritenor (or its Italian form, baritenore) is still used today to describe a type of tenor voice which came to particular prominence in Rossini's operas. It is characterized by a dark, weighty lower octave and a ringing upper one but with sufficient agility for coloratura singing. Rossini used this type of voice to portray noble (and usually older), leading characters, often in contrast to the higher, lighter voices of the tenore di grazia or the tenore contraltino who portrayed the young, impetuous lovers." I'm sure you're aware of this, but wanted to share for others! Seems that Mozart wrote for this voice, probably out of the Baroque tradition, but then abandoned it in his subsequent operas. Then I guess Rossini picked it back up again!
It’s Such a pleasure to follow Mr. Spyres while his performance. All emotions can be read on his face so clearly. From day one when I first time heard Michael on instagram promoting Baritenor album I clearly can tell I felt in love with this voice. Big voice big man big heart. 🎉
Efectivamente es sorprenderte su dominio de la sensibilidad vocal y su exagerado talento. Subliminal esta en todas las Arias de ese magnífico último CD llamado "Contratenor" y muy innovador y transgresor en todos los palos.
Pocas. Veces se siente o percibe una orquesta y una magnífica dirección por este nuevo director del magnífico grupo il pomo d'oro que lleva años grabando con los mejores artistas enhorabuena a Francesco Corti que se se siente como extraordinario y sensible director y a todos los miembros tan sobresalientes de la orquesta, vaya talento creativo el de ambos. Bueno y ahora me toca hablar de ese monstruo"vocal " que sorprende a todos con su inusual falsete, vaya mandíbula ( que más quisieran muchos saberlo utilizar). Ya tengo ganas de comprar el próximo CD Enhorabuena a todos, hasta a Rato por apoyar últimamente a tantos sobresalientes artistas.
Sin dudas que la mejor mezcla es el tenor asi suave no tan agresivo como el tradicional tenor que siempre esta con el volumen al 100.. La mezcla melodia entre falsete y baja potencia, solo cuando se requiere.
Amazing tenor voice. Softly and power..
Love u man

Bei diesem Stück habe ich das Gefühl Mozart selbst singt durch ihn … einfach wundervoll Michael ❤
There is absolutely nothing to criticise. Michael Spyres is a miracle.
true!...🥰

Dieses Talent ist zu beneiden. So etwas schönes zu hören ist ein Genuß

❤
As a 14 year old in 2024 that listens to classical music, this is definitely making the top 2. 👏🏻👏🏻
What will blow your mind is that Mozart was your age (14) when he wrote this. Crazy right? Genius. You have good taste 👍
I'm speechless! Absolutely beautiful.
Spyres did not come to play. He absolutely ate this aria up.
Un vero miracolo per l’umanità, quest’uomo è un unto del Signore! M’inchino!
Michael Spyres is the greatest Mitridate I have had the pleasure of hearing. No vocal shortcuts, and yet all the authority the title role requires. We’re lucky to have him.
Michael Spyres you are such an immense talent alone. You are better than the 3 tenors alone. Wow!!!! God bless you beautiful, gifted singer.
Absolutnie fantastyczne wykonanie.
Bravissimo!!!! Astounding. He is my favourite male voice. What a gift he is to the world. Thank you Michael Spyres.
Music manifests itself through You Mr Michael Spyres, it is impossible not to have our Hearts touched, it is fulminating!...
Ich könnte dieser Stimme immer zuhören. So ein meisterhafter Vortrag.
Невероятно, прекрасно, безупречно! Его пение вызывает трепет в сердце ! Обожаю Майкла, люблю его улыбку, он ещё и просто красавец!
His ability to reach down into the lower register makes it so much more rich and compelling. Beautifully performed!
I was already a fan, but now I love him even more. What an incredible performance.
I've only just discovered this incredible voice and now can't stop listening! ❤
Literally brought tears to my eyes.
I just discovered Michael Spyres and I am totally obsessed with his magnificent voice. WOW!!!!
I just found Michael Spyres tonight...WOW! Magnificent!!
❤️👏🏼
The mastery of his voice makes it this look effortless. You feel like he could do this all day and the first would be just as good as the last.
There is no better voice to portray the genius of Mozart than the diligent miraculous Spyres
Probably the clearest and the greatest of our time
This is an extremely difficult aria. And he nailed it perfectly! Mozart would be impressed
Passion drives perfection. Big ❤ for this.
È un capolavoro. La perfezione. La più bella voce maschile che io abbia mai sentito cantare !
He most certainly is the most beautiful male voice I have ever heard too. And a gorgeous human.
beautiful, just beautiful...what a gift to us all this man is.
Me faltan las palabras, por ahí he leído milagro y si lo es. A mis 50 años escuchando opera nunca he escuchado una voz comparable. BRAVO!
I completely agree. He’s unrivalled.
Crisp,clear , Beautiful, piece ,will listen again and again Thank you 💙👍💙👍
Przepiękny głos!!!!!!Jak cudownie czysty pod każdym wzgledem!!!
wow excellent techique

Same to the Bjorling comment! I've been running around YT comment sections saying exactly this!
Hearing this man's voice is incredible, he does what he wants with it, it's incredible, a pleasure to hear a human being do this☺️☺️
Credo che sia l'esecuzione perfetta. Grazie.
Listened out of curiosity,what a beautiful voice singing a stunning aria.Bravo !
Perfection. Gave me chills.
In love with his performances
WOW. Thank you! Dizzy with wonder at the sheer beauty of this. To be listened to hundreds of times. What a privilege.

What a huge tour de force. Brilliant achievement.
The tenor for whom
he wrote this aria had a wide-ranging instrument but lacked agility. So, to make the aria impressive, Mozart exploited his range.
He wrote difficult music for all voice types. Mozart himself was a tenor, he didn’t hate anyone.
Myślę że Mozart po tym wykonaniu polubiłby tenorów. Mistrz Spyres
Bravo 👏 bravo 👏 👍

What an amazing tenor! This performance is second only to Bruce Ford's! One of the hardest arias for tenor ever composed.
Incrediable, beautiful, awesome
Breathtaking!!!
Bravissimo!!!❤💛💚👋👋👋💯💐💐💐

Es ist wunderbar zu merken, wie er die Spannung beim Singen wunderbar bewältigt.
Efectivamente es sorprenderte su dominio de la sensibilidad vocal y su exagerado talento. Subliminal esta en todas las Arias de ese magnífico último CD llamado "Contratenor" y muy innovador y transgresor en todos los palos.

Glorious.
Best Mitridate ever
Pocas. Veces se siente o percibe una orquesta y una magnífica dirección por este nuevo director del magnífico grupo il pomo d'oro que lleva años grabando con los mejores artistas enhorabuena a Francesco Corti que se se siente como extraordinario y sensible director y a todos los miembros tan sobresalientes de la orquesta, vaya talento creativo el de ambos.
Bueno y ahora me toca hablar de ese monstruo"vocal " que sorprende a todos con su inusual falsete, vaya mandíbula ( que más quisieran muchos saberlo utilizar).
Ya tengo ganas de comprar el próximo CD
Enhorabuena a todos, hasta a Rato por apoyar últimamente a tantos sobresalientes artistas.
Quién es Rato?
👌👍🇪🇸🌿
No creo exagerar cuando digo q al escucharlo, su habilidad y perfección vocal me hace llorar! Él es el nuevo rey!
Formidabile !!!!
Qute técnica vocal!! Bravo.
Interesting and very well sung!!
Please note that "Re di Ponto" is without accent on the word RE.
Все молодцы!
Bravissimo, Michael
Touched by the Divine!
Maravilloso, saludos desdé jutiapa, Guatemala 🎉❤
Stunning! Just what I need to take me away from the angst of watching the US election. I feel calmer already. Thank you, Michael Spyres.
Genial! Impresionante!
Respekt!

Wow!!! Thank you!!!
Maaaaaaadre mía, me he quedado de piedra, que articulación y extensión vocal, que rotundidad. Magnífico Spyres.
Wenn das Universum singen könnte, würde es sich so anhören!
Exquisite!
Úžasný 👍👍
Buenos dias . 👏👏👏
