Un verdadero Barítono

Damn thumbnail had me thinking this was Donald Trump

Even in his prime he was not one of the great individualistic singers, the kind who do not just sing the written lines, but also add personal twists to express their unique emotions and perspectives. Nevertheless, he was a first rate singer who sang everything solidly, sort of like Merrill and MacNeil. And his voice was one of the greatest baritone sounds ever. All in all, I have always felt that he was underappreciated, and should have received far more oppotunities to sing in the very top opera houses. Generally, the perfectly natural singers who never strain their voices, are the ones who preserve their instruments until very late in life.

A 87 anni! Mamma mia.

I agree - extraordinary - I would never have imagined that voice was of an old old man - the power & the purity & the high notes. He shouts on the last high note but so what.

The Best

Excellent. As an agi g singer myself, i can say that the BREATH is the first thing to go. Long phrases become difficult or impossible . Sustained tones too. Thats the reason he seems to cut off the ends of phrases or it gets shouty. When he is in the upper register its great. And he as stamina and energy ( the 2nd thing to go)

¡Impresionante!

Extraordinario. No se pierde la dulzura de su voz ni el control.

unglaublich

Glorious !

Grazie per questo documento della grande scuola italiana! sono grata al destino di aver conosciuto questo grande artista ed Uomo.

I have the Great Pleasure of Hearing him in 1991 in Così fan tutte in Vienna - 40 years into his great career - and he absolutely dominated a star-studded performance.

Bravo nonno Rolando...una scuola per tutti i giovani cantanti lirici...per l'eternità...

Eine noch so kräftige und volle Stimme, das ist enorm.😍

For an 87 year old singer this is incredible. Of course he was way beyond his peak but the fact that he could produce this sound is unbelievable.

Удивительно сочно звучит голос в таком преклонном возрасте. Никогда бы не подумала, что такое возможно.

Oh my…

The ends of the phrases are shouted and I am an 81 year old baritone but he still has all the high notes and a lot of power.

Fenomeno

Un grande dono del SIGNORE

Un grande dono di Dio

Great voice, great performance. Bravo,

Loooooooove it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Grazie

This should be a fellony, regardless of prior achievements

I actually sang with him. 1967.

Bravo Bravo

Hell yeah! Voice of steel. The old school way.

He was such an amazing singer! But you have to know when to hang it up!

Stupendous! Tough guys finish first!

Legato is everything.

It hurts to hear until one remembers he's 87. It's still painful, but it makes me wonder how he sounded in his prime if this is what's left.

I’m an admire of his past work but this is embarrassingly out of tune and unmusical.

Большинство оперних певцов не умеют так петь не только в 87 а и в 40,20 и в любом возрасте

che voce stupenda! <3

Io sono molto rispettoso di un uomo di 87 anni ma…posso dire che è inascoltabile?

Incredibile! Uno dei grandissimi!!! Grazie per averlo riproposto...

Цілком можливо, що співає в такому віці. Наш Козловський прославився ще й тим, що виступав у 90 років

At 87 he is remarkable. Most people at that age can't control their Bowels . His Diaphram is made of of steel. Also has colour in is his voice. What a Man...

SUPERB

Holy crap had no idea he ever sang at that age. All of these recordings of him from the 50s and 60s. Incidentally he lived 8 more years passing at 95 in 2019.....he wouldve been 100 later this year (October 2024). This is amazing.

straordinaria voce, ma in foto sembrava Azucena !

Incredible. Thank you so much for posting this.

Incredible!!

Amazing how he retained the essential timbre of his voice

He is in total control of his beautiful voice. Wow!!

Wow!!

He's 87!!!! OMG,what a beautiful voice. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
