Amazing.. The tone production, control of dynamics simply incredible. His high register brilliant and totally under his control. Pavarotti, a very good singer, Lemeshev an extraordinary vocal artist.
That ending is absolutely unbelievable! I mean, the whole of the singing was incredible, but that ending just took it to another level altogether. Fantastic singing.
Good GOD! What an ending! A Db in messa voce, and THEN a diminuendo on top of that! Truly one of the greatest lyric tenors who ever lived. Pity he is so underrated outside of Russia. He also has the most perfect vibrato of any tenor I've ever heard. And his placement is so flawless, no covering or nonsense vowel modification...sound flows out of him like water.
I wonder if someone ever saw his spaceship. He's not from this planet, that's for sure. Unbelievable good. GermanOperaSinger made a perfect definition; it flows like water.
Wow! I loved Lemeshev already for his Lensky, but these Rigoletto excerptas show a side of him that is even more appealing, if that is possible! Thanks so much for posting all this great Lemeshev. I feel I am becoming a Lemeshevist as well...
@younglemeshevist It is much appreciated that you post the magnificent Lemeshev. There are not enough superlatives to describe his consummate grasp of the Art of Singing.
Today I discovered the great SL !!!He is just great..I guess If he wouldn't be Russian, He would be the greatest tenor ever!!!!Thanks for this beatiful colaboration!!!
@GermanOperaSinger -- Is he underrated outside of Russia or just not known? I hadn't even heard of him before today and am very impressed. Remember that the Soviet system was largely closed to the West, though you'd think Stalin would have wanted to hold up Lemeshev as some great product of Communism, which he wasn't of course, having studied with teachers long-established before the 1917 revolution.
Unfortunately, no but I would like to learn it. I speak English, spanish and french. I hate France who don't understand my passion. I am in a school in France where I was born but my friends don't understand that I love. That's why, I am alone. I love russia and my first name is Igor ;)
