I've met Sam a couple years ago and had a workshop with him. He demonstrated a thunderous G# at the top at 9 in the morning as part of his warm up routine and proceeded to sing the entire Sarastro aria an octave lower.
My favorite number from an opera filled with beautiful numbers. Alidoro, the 'fairy godfather' figure of Cenerentola, might be seen by some as an ungrateful role, the lion's share of basso glory seemingly going to Dandini and Magnifico. This aria proves them wrong. And when it is sung so magnificently as here, there can be no question of his preëminence. Thank you Manoli!
@@manolis.799 Yes indeed. I feel Cenerentola often gets overshadowed by Barbiere, and that's grossly unfair. They are both works of genius, and should be equally respected and enjoyed on the world's stages.
A mans man Baritone/Bassoon profundo. Thank you Olbregado & Linda thanks you her favorite Baritone/ Bassoon. Next to Bastinini. Adieu little Mister Arnaud 💙🙏🇨🇵🥰🍷🌎
Beautiful Manoli thank you. In listening to your channel my appreciation for Rossini has grown immensely. I always thought, like Jason mentioned, of Barbieri and not much else. Now I know better. I'm wondering, is it not very unusual to have a bass also be able to do baritone roles?
This is still a bass role, the more baritone role in cenerentola is Dandini. Some roles have been sung by baritones and basses like Scarpia, Escamillo, and even Rigoletto (Justino Diaz has sang it). But these instances are usually pretty rare. There’s also some roles that are sort of “in between” like Wotan or the villains from the Tales of Hoffmann. And some baritones have sang bass roles, like Don Giovanni (fairly common), Figaro, or Leporello.
@@manolis.799 Thank you Manoli. I knew this was a bass role. I was asking because I was reading in the comments about his ability of being able to sing both parts and thought it must be a really unusual talent, as you have confirmed. Thanks again.

That’s insane… 😅

One of Rossini’s best creations, and that’s saying something.

Spectacular Mr. Ramey. Sweet perfection 💜
Tecnica impeccabile, dizione e legato perfetti anche se ha il passaggio baritonale al Mi naturale.

As always the great bass barítone of all the times❤
Magnifico!!!!! Bravissimo!!!!!!!
He has a beautiful baritone voice. His agility is remarkable. Bravo!
He is superhuman
He is a bass actually, but his voice covers the baritone too.
@@manolis.799 A vocal phenomenon!
Thank you, dear Manoli.
@@aetion You are absolutely correct. Baritones do not sing Sarastro, Colline, Mefistofele nor the Grand Inquisitor.
