Pavarotti NESSUN DORMA | Opera Singer Reacts!

- DISCLAIMER: I know I very strongly advocate for an ending 't' in Turandot, but I actually don't care that much. In the original play it was pronounced with a T but Puccini didn't want it pronounced like that so his Turandot was pronounced without. James Harbeck describes the even larger, full history here: • Pronunciation tip: Tur...
NESSUN DORMA from Puccini’s last opera, Turandot, sung by Luciano Pavarotti.

Noone shall sleep! Noone shall sleep!
Not even you, oh Princess,
in your cold bedroom,
watching the stars
that tremble with love, and with hope!
But my secret is hidden within me;
no one will know my name!
No, no! On your mouth,
I will say it when the light shines!
And my kiss will dissolve
the silence that makes you mine!
No one will know his name,
and we will have to, alas, die, die!
Vanish, o night!
Fade, you stars!
Fade, you stars!
At dawn, I will win!
I will win! I will win!

Questa non è realtà. Sicuramente hanno allungato l'acuto con mezzi tecnici. Questa performance è parte di un film e di un lungo acuto lo hanno fatto diventare un lunghissimo acuto per enfatizzare la grandezza del personaggio. Ciò non toglie che il nessun dorma di Pavarotti è fantastico ma sempre dietro a quello di Corelli, il più grande Calaf di tutti i tempi.
This man was A GOD with his vocal ability. As a tenor myself i can't help but tear up every time i hear this man's voice. It's that seductive and powerful at the same time. RIP Luciano.
at last , Pavarotti at his prime. Thank you.
He did that just because he could. 💕
... without a mike. Expecially in his prime. He had to let everyone hear him well!
The voice of LP made me "Tears in my Eyes"! Thank You!
Very good, I'm Italian and I've heard you speak very well. English speakers often distort the pronunciation of arias which are almost always in Italian. I live next to the Puccini Tower in Ansedonia, on the Tyrrhenian coast of southern Tuscany, where the maestro always came on holiday. It is a magical place that inspires poetry and love.
Wow must be beautiful and inspiring!!
@@operaannaOn sait qu'une personne ne connaît rien à Pavarotti ni à l'opéra quand ils écoutent tous le nesum dorma
Luciano è il nostro orgoglio ❤ ps: Tu sei bellissima!
Thank you for speaking the lyrics and interpreting them.
and when he did it the second time, he does it even better^^
i showed this to a kollegue, that did ot know pavarotti, shame on him, so i showed him this clip. he was amazed^^
That's what I keep hearing! I should've watched the whole thing 🫣
Pavarotti has that power... 😏
Bravissima !!!!
wow, i think this version is even better than the newer one everyone reacts to
That's what I thought! I don't think that one is his best recording at all, and I like that this is staged 🙌
Loved it! ❤
This is the perfect holiday treat. I hope you had a great Christmas Anna!
Thank you!! You too!
A shy meow and hello from Switzerland to you, Anna! :) Thanks for showcasing this excellent piece of musical art! :)
My pleasure!
Just perfection 💯
I always thought Turandot was pronounced with a "hard" O as in "boat". However it's pronounced, this opera is Amazing! One of my favorites! There will never be another Pavarotti!
Yes! It is 🤣 i went with the American here, cause otherwise I feel so pretentious.
right about that!
the pavarotti part i mean😊
Loved it!
Bravissima Anna, la tua spiegazione così simpatica farà capire a molti che l'ascolto dell'Opera non è così noioso come tutti credono.
👍🇮🇹👍🥂Welcome all in Italy because Italy is an open-air museum
Pavarotti was the Greatest voice of our time.
The right translation is "Nobody shall sleep" because "dorma"in Italian is a subjunctive and it's used as an imperative
Thank you so very much for explaining this opera. I love your channel. I will happily subscribe.
Yay thank you so much! Glad to know you enjoy the content 🥰
I have been watching a lot of reviews of the more popular video version (with the 3 Tenors) but your presentation is the most approachable in a conversational context. I am definitely checking out more of your content, and possibly, just maybe, subscribing.
Good one!
Thank you! Hope to see you around more often 🙏
Great Reaction Anna. Grazie
Hello, I guess you have already heard something about Beniamino Gigli, famous italian tenor. He was born in Recanati in 1890, a few miles away from where I currently live. It would be nice to see him being reproduced on your UA-cam Channel. Thanks for doing all this work on opera. Greetings from Italy, Enrico.
Absolutely! What a voice, I'll make sure to work him in soon!
What he is able to do almost seems impossible. That is true greatness. What a treasure. Now I'm interested in checking out Aretha Franklin's attempt at this difficult aria.
Brava Anna! The first time I heard this aria was a crossover. Two country singers: Austin Brown and Rob Lundquist. Both are tenors from an a capella group called Home Free. They did it as a duet.
My ever growing list of crossover versions ..
If you do a crossover video, I'd be happy to give the link.
Yes finally 😁😁😁
Masterpiece, exquisite, pure perfection 💯
Merry Christmas! That's unexpected.
Omg, wish I had you on quick dial when I watched some of these operas in Verona
Drop-dead gorgeous
Why should I?😠😜
Brilliant! Thanks
As always, a wonderful video 👍
Btw, just for the experiment I searched on UA-cam "that song that Pavarotti sings" and, as a matter of fact, the first result is indeed Nessun Dorma. The second one is "O sole mio"
What did I say??? 🙈🙈🙈
Pavarotti 👌 bravo 👏 🙌 👌 👍 new to opera don giovanni and this one. Thank you
Great reaction and deepening of lyrics meaning! Just a note if you allow me: at 13:35 you said the choir are basically repeating what he said, actually the lirics are "No one will know his name and we must, alas, die...die" I guess they represent those who are gonna die if he will win. Cheers from Italy :)
Thanks for catching that!
👏👏👏👏 Bravo!!!! Pavarotti
Montserrat Caballé....Orange 1974
"Casta Diva" ( Norma ).
Ohhh that one needs to make it on the series
A kind of irony in the story of the opera, maybe intentional on Puccini's part, maybe not, is that the name Turandot comes from Persian Turandokthar, and means "Daughter of Turan", which is an old word for Central Asia. Turan would correspond roughly to the equally vague term Tartary, which is where the prince Calaf and his father comes from. It's a strange name for a Chinese princess, to say the least.
Love that you get Pavarottis best performance for this..too unusual.
Thank you!
Welcome back Anna! Still waiting for your take on Wagner.
Why am I scared 😝🫣
thank you Anna, I look at you and you fill me with energy, you are very good and your videos are beautiful but it is you who fill them with energy. HI
Thank you so much!
Te adoro Luciano ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great to see someone reacting to Pavarotti is his prime.
An Italian here... The best translation into English will probably be "All must keep awake"
Great synopsis of Acts 1, 2 and 3!
That was lovely, despite me not being a total fan of the "Pavarotti sound". I always had rather a thing for voices "with edges". Perhaps, if you like and find the time, you could do a breakdown of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau singing "Der Erlkönig". It's not opera, it's a song by Schubert, but this is a male voice as I truly like it.
edit: Besides that, the Erlkönig is probably one of the creepiest songs ever written ... a true horror story, which is, kind of cool, if you have a thing for it.
Yess so strange this piece. That'd be a fun one!
Pure Latin Passion*
¡¡ This is the Best Nessun Dorma and the Best Tenor !!
¡¡ 😉👍 !!
Ms. Anna: Excellent instruction & discussion. You know what you are talking about & how to present your argument. You are very attractive & have excellent communication skills. Therefore, drop the expletives. You don't need them. You are too classy for that. Ten popcorn boxes minus one. I will be looking for recordings of your vocal performances along with Pav's. ❤
Anna, you're lovely.
Loved the vid.
E lucevan le stelle?
Di Stefano's great for it.
Corelli as well.
Thank you!
What a wonderful fun reaction, I loved it. I find myself out of breath just watching Pavarotti, It seems inconceivable that, like you said, the last word barely seems to have left his mouth, before the following word is already being sung.
I have a question, here we see Pavarroti singing without any amplification, has the use of high level sound systems and ear pieces changed the way opera is now sung now?
Opera is still sung without amplification...
The development of microphones and amplification technology gave way to musical theater - a whole new genre! And pop for that matter, but the technique is much different for pop singing. In any case, I would say because of the development of music that came with the technology that allowed amplification to be possible, it gave us different ways to experience the human voice. I think it that way it would change the way we listen to opera, but not directly because of amplification.
That being said as well, I've seen contemporary operas that use small microphones because the composer asks for extended technique things that aren't exactly in line with classical technique...
@@operaanna I just saw a video where the soprano was wearing a bejeweled boom mike over her ear like telemarketers and MLM gurus wear on stage (without the jewels).
I am not sure how I feel about it.
I record my own music and I am all too aware how difficult it is to mike something, especially voice. I guess I don't mind it if it is a straight-to-video performance, but I would not appreciate it if I take up a second mortgage to see an opera live on stage and the performers wore microphones. What's next? Autotune?
@@PamelaContiGlass what was the opera? Sometimes contemporary operas mic their singers because of the orchestra size combined with the writing or its being recorded? Either way I completely agree that for a standard opera it's completely unacceptable
❤

Interessantes Video! Nun, für mich ist Corelli die Nr. 1 in dieser Arie, in dieser Rolle! Der Calaf des 20. Jahrhunderts! Unangefochten! Ihm am nächsten kommt sein "väterlicher Freund" und Lehrer Giacomo Lauri-Volpi, der für den ersten Calaf (Premiere 1926) vorgesehen war! Ich mag Pavarotti wirklich sehr, habe ihn viele male live gesehen, hier bleibt aber FC der "Prinz der Tenöre"! Ich habe auch Corelli live gesehen/gehört, er hatte eine enorme Bühnenpräsenz und fast magnetische Ausstrahlung! Und seine Stimme, mein Gott seine Stimme!
Danke für Ihr Video, war Inspiration für einige vergleichende Musikstunden!
Personally, I take Pavarotti, Caruso and...then the rest and yes, I have heard them all and singing the same piece.
I had the enormous privilege of singing shoulder-to-shoulder with Dame Joan Sutherland in the San Diego Opera's performance of Il Trovatore. Anything you have that features her amazing gift would be appreciated. By the way, she once told me that everyone back home referred to her as the "Aussie Truck Driver." Her sense of humor was legendary.
Coming up! How have I not featured her yet?! *shame*
you seem fun to hang with.
ganhaste um inscrito, bela moça.
Finally some explanations! Brava. Corelli was a great spinto tenor, by the way. Too bad he missed the media... when the appeard, he was too old. Sad but true.
Corelli forever! (I love Pav but Corelli needs more recognition - personal mission to up his popularity :P)
Also, Pavarotti's eyes shine! Beautifully in this video, but so often after. Not lusting lol, but yeah, lusting lol it's like watching Sam Waterston on Law&Order, as Jack McCoy, in front of a jury. Not hot, but at the same time, so "Damn Hot!"
hey Anna, from Brazil. I loved her reaction, it's very much seeing an opera singer's point of view, bravo. Could you please react to Andrea Mastroni singing "Fra l'ombre e gl'orrori"? It would be very interesting to hear your words, in his performance.
EVERY ONE EMBRACE YOURSELVES AND LISTEN HEAR THE LAST NOTE OF PAVAROTTI I PROMISE YOU YOU WILL NEVER EVER HEAR IT AGAIN ONLY A GIFT FROM GOD MAY PRODUCE THIS ONLY A GIFT FROM GOD AND HIM THROUGH GOD MOST FORTUNATE TO HAVE HIM IN OUR TIME AND HIS MEMORIES TO ALWAYS REMEMBER HIM AND AWE AT HIS GLORIOUS VOICE
It's really more like "Nobody shall sleep", if I had to get obnoxious about it. Also, everyone in Italy says "La Turando...t" where there is just a hint of a following consonant, but no actual T. It's more the way they vocalize the "o" that hints at a consonant being somewhere in the neighborhood.
Also, I want to add a couple more things: You should do more of this. I know how much work this is, but you have a compelling presence and I am watching all your videos. Alas, I'll run out soon and I know I'll want more.
A story: When my wife was very sick, bedbound for months at a time and deeply depressed, I made a mixtape (yes, it was that long ago) of mostly Puccini arias, some Verdi, Leoncavallo, Vivaldi, even a bit of Mozart and Handel. She knew nothing about opera at the time, but I couldn't reach her otherwise. Her illness and depression had formed a wall between her and the rest of the world.
One day she asked me "Is this the music of the angels?"
By then I had tuned the music out. I think she was listening to “Un bel dì vedremo”, but could have been the flower duet. What I do remember is that she came out of her deadly depression. It wasn't an overnight miracle (both of us are non-believers), but that was the beginning of her (limited) recovery.
This music, reaching us from decades and centuries past, has power beyond just notes sprinkled on lined paper.
My daughter studied Viola and she was part of our local youth orchestra. Those are some of my best memories. There is nothing like an actual orchestra deluging you with sound. How I miss it!
Thank you so much for this! I am going to start posting again in January and hopefully start a Patreon in February.
About the pronunciation, I usually say Turando(t) without the 't' but I thought the discussion between the two was too funny not to provoke a bit 😂 it is quite an interesting history.
Edit: thank you so much for sharing about your wife. This music is so much more powerful than we realize!
Thank you for this! Please react to the version by the 2 country singers Rob Lundquist and Austin Brown. Rob is surprisingly great.
When I saw Turandot in an opera House - Covent Garden in fact - I absolutely loathed it. The plot is a ridiculous contrivance concocted to satisfy a European craze for orientalism at that time (Madam Butterfly being another example, though much much better imho). Puccini left it unfinished at his death, so much of the score is constructed from his notes. He had had a complicated relationship with his mother, which I think accounts for the trope of good women dying for the man they love, and Princess Liu, or little Liu as I think of her, is also particularly forlorn member of the lineage, as she sacrifices herself, in order to save Calaf, whom she loves, even though he loves the ghastly frigid Turandot. When Calaf discovers Liu is dead, he's like, 'aw, isn't that sweet? Now, I'd better be go cos I wanna shag the psycopath bitch responsible for little Liu's death, mwah!'. There's some intrigue with a couple of Chinese courtiers, Ping and Pong, and various other strange characters. And ... after Calaf sits up all night without sleeping, he guesses Turandot's name, previously unknown; and she retires from being a paranoid misandryst homicidal psycho princess to become a regular housewife and mother. It really is tripe.
I mean, I don't disagree....
I very much enjoyed your "overview "? lol you're fun and smart, and, saying this as someone queer as a three dollar bill, you have such a great smile! I cheer up when I see it :-)
Awww ☺️☺️ thank you!

A cordial greeting to you Anna!!... No one better than you, to analyze this incredible singer who is leaving all the experts, literally with their jaws on the floor (Do you remember Jim Carrey's movie "The Mask"? well, just like that)...In 2017, a 22-year-old singer from Kazakhstan, named Dimash Kudaibergen, was invited to participate in the famous Chinese program for professional singers called "The Singer"... In his first appearance, Dimash covered one of the most difficult songs in the world, a famous French composition called "S.O.S. D'un Terrien En Détresse"...Since then all this madness began on the internet, UA-cam and social networks worldwide and he is already considered the best singer on the entire planet... It is almost impossible to see a human being, being able to reach vocal ranges of 8 octaves, that is, the 88 keys of a digital piano, which allows him to reach all registers, both masculine and feminine, that is, he can sing as Bass, Baritone, Tenor, Contratenor, Contralto, Mezzosoprano and Soprano...You can see in UA-cam to all kinds of experts (Vocal coaches, analysts, singing teachers, singers, youtubers, reactors, etc.), who have dedicated themselves to watching his videos and verifying for themselves that what is said about him is completely true...In addition to all this, Dimash is capable of singing in more than 12 languages...In all his concerts worldwide, tickets are sold in just seconds, via the internet, due to the immense popularity he has worldwide... Anyway, I think you haven't met this impressive singer yet, so here is the link to the first song that Dimash performed in China in that year 2017, the song S.O.S., and if it doesn't bother you, I would like you to mention me as the person who recommended it to you...Warning: You have to be prepared for thousands of views, comments and new subscribers...The video It is more recent, so it does not have the millions of views that the first ones, but it is more complete, including an intro, subtitles in several languages and better audio and sound quality...ua-cam.com/video/bDX3FhmyNac/v-deo.html

What a great aria. I've yet to do something contemporary...
This video is just perfect.
As italian, tnx, you have a new subscriber.
You're welcome! And thank you!
Regarding why everyone wants to risk their life to try and win Turandot's hand - she's not just any princess, she is princess of CHINA. While this conception of China is of course wildly ahistorical, we can still safely assume from the subtext of the opera's story that China is the most glorious and powerful empire in the world. Of course, this being a romantic opera, her suitors don't seem to care about that, they care about her beauty - but there's still a certain, unparalleled prestige that would come with marrying her.
Yes, great point!
It’s the second one that’s even more impressive! From the Pavs that is
The second one?
@@operaanna in that clip, he sings the climax again, and it’s nuts.
@@paulickert6326 oh right! Yeah i saw he did an encore but i didn't fully watching cause i figured it was some weird movie thing they would do to it. I'll fully watch it though!

The edit at 3:44 has me dead
Лучший Калаф за всю историю исполнения Турандот - Франко Корелли🥰🥰🥰🥰 К тому же Корелли очень много раз спел Калафа на сцене, а Паваротти ни разу.
Please do Vesti La Giubba - it's up there alongside Nessun Dorma.
Watch out for my next upload 🤭
New sub!!
Whilst Pavarotti owns most of the arias, always felt Placido owned Il Pagliaccio, even more than Mario Lanza.
The plot is ridiculous, but I'm there for the singing and acting. I recently watched an updated performance of Handel's Atalanta, and despite knowing the (really, really thin) plot, I was lost within 10 minutes. Yet the performance was such that it was one of the best evenings I have had in years! Thank you Anna.
Oh, full-on ridiculousness from the librettist for sure. Handel is even worse!! Eight million characters and always some deus ex machina of some sort. When its sung well, though, it's pretty thrilling!
Please make us all happy and do a reaction to In Questa Reggia 😭😭😭
It's on the list I promise!!!
Waiting for a react to Corelli
Now you understand my struggle to only look at the Pavs! I'm thinking of doing an "arias through the ages*, looking at sort of the earliest recording i can find all the way to today, including with Nessun Dorma. Corelli would obviously be included cause 🥰
Check my newest video btw
Pav did a phenomenol job with this aria, but I don't think Turandot was a good opera for him. It took a slightly lower seated more powerful tenor bordering on baritone like Domingo or Corelli to pull off the rest of the opera. The riddle scene, princess of death, and a couple of other arias for the tenor were not good for Pavarotti's voice. His recording of Turandot with Montserrat Caballe isn't what one would expect given the stature and quality of the singers involved. I think his voice was better suited to Boheme and Rigoletto than to Turandot and Aida, both of which he did rather unsuccessfully later in his career.
Looks like you had the climax before the actual climax.
👀👀👀
Dig it*...

@@operaanna Please excuse my Latin.. Splendid Reaction...Brava
@@poppiethestable1090 ohh thanks! I thought with the asterisk i had with something wrong. 🫣
"t" or no "t", I know, -I know, I am in a tiny minority here - but for the life of mine I can't understand what makes people so excited about Pavarotti singing this aria. Great singing, no question, but no , sorry. I don't hear "I will win!" neither in his lyrical voice, nor in his effort to push it. Overall, he really does not sound like Calaf to me, the way I imagine him. and it showed in his (very few!) performances of the whole thing. IMHO, of course.
Corelli, on the other hand
The opinions are split when it comes to this aria! Corelli is stunning as well, but Pavarotti has my heart
Is it sad that I recognize the movie??
Hahah not at all!
If you pause I'm not watching this video
Lol sorry man
@@operaanna I'm just saying. You don't pause in the middle of a high note. Or very big moment in the song. Why not listened to the entire thing then talk about it
@@user-qk8yh3mt8i I only pause where I do because of copyright reasons or for ✨ dramatic effect.✨ If I'm correct in your referral of the high note interruption, I replay the high note so that people can hear it in its entirety. Reaction videos, especially my videos, are meant to provide insight along the way, and not for the song/aria to be viewed in their entirety. For that you can visit the link in the description box that I post on every video. If you don't like how I format my content then feel free to find someone else who does it more to your liking.
@@operaanna that's cool my only other question is why did you choose that version. You can't hardly even see Pavarotti
Hope you dont mind a little correction, aria's english translation should be "no one shall sleep" instead of "nobody sleeps" said by you
I meaannn yeah
@@operaannathis title represents an authoritarian command, an order. Totally another meaning from "nobody/no one sleeps" which is a factual observation. I meeeean, properly translating the title seems an affordable task, innit?
@@riccardo4-xx8op well Riccardo, I didn't "mind a little correction", and I took your suggestion, but since you want to get into it, I'd just like to point out that it can also be both. Princess Turandot says "Questa notte nessun dorma in Pekino!” which I don't need to translate, since clearly you know, which yes, is in this case a command since 'dorma' is in the subjunctive tense. HOWEVER, in English "Nobody sleeps!" could also be used as a command and not necessarily just an observation as you seem to think it is. And if you'd REALLY like to know why I changed it to "Nobody sleeps", which at the end of the day won't matter for those just getting into opera or looking to learn a little more about an aria , which is who my videos are for, and is not a dissertation on each and every piece, is because I find that the use of 'shall' makes it too poetic and mainly sound outdated, making it more difficult for people to connect with it, which is the #1 biggest problem in opera anyway.
So if it's okay, I'll keep the translation that I chose after already also taking the "affordable task, innit?" of presenting the official translation in the video for people to know, so that we can open up the dialogue to those that might be turned off by more flowery language.
Thanks for your comment!
@@operaanna Can "nobody sleeps" be used as command? In this case I apologize, i mistakenly thought was more an observation sentence than an order in modern english. I'm obviously a not native english speaker, forgive me and thanks for the lesson. Anyway i truly enjoyed your video and i didnt mean to be rude at all with my first comment; the second answer of mine was a bit savage because that "i meeeeean" sounded like a 100% 'murica "who cares bruh xd" impression.
@@operaanna Anyway, i see what you're trying to do. And i do agree, opera has to be enjoyed by everyone, theres no place for elitism. Its literally "pop culture". If simplify the lyrics helps this process lets do it. I still think "nobody shall sleep" is more solid translation since there's no risk to take it as an observation, but as you explained me can't be considered wrong. Thanks Anna and have a good one
This aria first belong to Corelli.
100% agree
with all that charisma and knowledge, I really enjoyed. Shame the rest of the worl is stuck beetween Anitta and The Voice kids, bllwaah, sorry, I almost regurgitated my supper. Anyway, You're cute, very charismatic, and I wish you all success. By the way, you have a really great jaw structure. Don't get me wrong, I'm not just "admiring the shape of your skull".
Pavarotti not suited at all for this aria, despite the general (incompetent) public association of it with him. The standard on this aria has been widely recognized to be set by mario del monaco, with possibly corelli for those who prefer spinto tenors. For obvious reasons Caruso (possibly the greatest tenor) should not be inlcuded in any list of those singing nessun dorma 😂. You are doing an excellent job, brava!
Do you need a cigarette, too?
?
@@operaanna Sorry. Tasteless semi-sexual innuendo referring to the climactic high-C. My apologies.
@@desperateambrose5373 OH hahaha I actually thought that but didn't want to assume :P No worries
He is perfect, but this aria is not for his repertoire. So funny everybody thinks it is his aria
Agree to disagree I guess 😬
che te lo dico a fare dai ????????????????
I don't remember tell me 🙈🙈🙈🙈
Calaf is not for anybody else , but solely for Corelli ,the is also afilm operа ,,Turandot, " no offence, dear Anna, but when presented, Turandot, only Corelli is worth listening, to, neither lyric Pavarotti, or dramatic Del Monaco!
I really enjoy both of their performances! I simply watched Pavarotti here because there are so many videos of his Nessun Dorma online that I wanted to give some context. Whether you think his voice is fit for the role doesn't change that it will be some people's first exposure to either the genre or Pavarotti or the aria or the opera or all of them all at once. Providing context can help to translate someone who watched a video of Pavarotti once into a life-long opera lover.
TE HAS DEJADO LA MITAD DE LA CANCIÓN SIN PONER...LO VUELVE A REPETIR TODO, ELLA SE LEVANTA Y SE VA Y EL FINAL (VINCERO, VINCERO) ES MUCHO MAS LARGO QUE EL PRIMERO..TE HAS DEJADO LO MEJOR SIN EDITAR.
Anna, you are great and also beautiful but we want a critique of the performance not the whole opera. Had to leave kiddo, too many interruptions.
Thanks for your input! The aria starts later, just fyi. I try to give background so as to be prepared going in. Would it help if I put timestamps so you could skip to the aria?
@@operaanna No Anna. You don't need to change a thing just my thoughts on this one.
Why on earth did he chose thia aria when it is unanimously acknowledged be reputable musicians the besr ever isFranco Corelli. Pav . sounds like A bathroom singer when taking a shower.
