Gigante maestro Taddei - at any age, in any role, he is magnificent! His gorgeous baritone still sonorous; Pavarotti, almost twenty years his junior, does his best, but the older generation does it with ease and irresistible charm.
Pavarotti was amazing, but his golden years was yet to come I think. He shines the most during the 80s. And there were some real diamonds in the 90s too. The passion, the emotion got even better even though the strength suffered during the final years.
I attended this performance - no doubt Taddei was masterful even at his advanced age here- and comparing a baritone with a tenor is similar to comparing apples and pears 🙄. But…Who can resist Luciano’s shining tenor - even more so in his favourite role, Nemorino?
There's a video here on UA-cam of a performance of this duet with Ugo Benelli in which he's 85, if I'm not mistaken. Both still in great shape, considering their ages.
Conosciuto backstage con altri amici cantanti al suo debutto al MET! Malgrado L età avanzata era emozionantissimo. Persona squisita, davvero . Generazione di altri grandissimi ( Panerai, Bruson)
What a great pairing! Both impeccable technique, great style and Italian of course and colorful acting.
There must be 2 casting with Taddei and Panerai in this production.
Anyway they are legendary.

@@flav2689I read in another video of this performance that Taddei here is 72, so, since he was born in 1916, this is from 1988.

Bravissimo,maestro Giuseppe Taddei.
A thinner Pavarotti, in a role in wich he was the absolute master, and AN astounding Taddei, who was over his 70s, but in a marvellous shape
Amor santo te quiero ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Giuseppe era un mio grande amico
Per me, era il piu Grande Baritono!!! Voi siete molto fortunato per questa grande amicizia.
Che cantante straordinario! E che persona incredibilmente simpatica.
Qui era già avanti con gli anni credo ( e coi fiati un po' corti ... ) ma che Dulcamara fantastico !
@@andreafasoli5205 pero ancora fiato piu lungo quanto tanti baritoni finti di oggi...
