Rather than to criticize either of these two amazing singers, I think one should appreciate the fact these two singers are alive in our lifetime and were able to perform together. Performances like this are very rare. And very amazing!
Terfel often overpowers others with his powerful and effortless voice, this is an amazing duet. What bocelli lacks in power he makes up for in a smooth and pleasant voice. probably my favourite version of this piece
Bocelli is not a performer who has an overpowering opera tenor but his tone is beautiful and his phrasing is excellent. Here he does a superb job with the great and powerful baritone, Terfel. Their voices match perfectly and the performance is incredible. Thanks for posting this so that others could see the beauty and genius of Bizet.
I keep reading comments saying Bocelli's voice 'lacks power'. What?! It rings out like a bell and has great projection. This is NOT a 'weak' voice. His tenor is beautifully lyrical. The quality of an operatic singer should not be assessed solely on his lung volume and how loud he can shout.
Unbelievable - 2 extraordinary men with beautiful voices. Why are opera "experts" so critical of Andrea? He can hold his own with anyone including the powerful Bryn Terfel
And this is why they are both elite in the field. When Andrea reached over and grabbed Terfel's arm...that is called passion. That's what determines how far you are willing to take the dream. Magnificent.
This version is so magical. Both singers seem to bring their own unique talents to this: 1) Andrea: a beautiful lyric tenor 2) Terfel: a strong bass-baritone tenor. I love this!

I'm glad I'm not an expert. I just sit here and delight in this wonderful singing and playing.

Bryn Terfel with AB is better than Placido Domingo with AB.

Bryn Terfel has the most amazing voice. It makes me so proud to be Welsh.
Why did they bother?

you can feel your heart lifting up and almost out of your body when their voices soar
Wonderful, a Welshman and an Italian singing in French. Beautiful.
This might be the greatest sounding event in the history of vibration... of all time ...ever
This duet must be the most beautiful duet in the world...

I was lucky enough to see them perform this at the Royal Albert Hall, what a venue, what a performance, incredible
A stunning duet. One of the very best. I have never been able to listen to this song without tears and this version
I cannot watch this without crying. A truly majestic performance from two of the greatest singers alive today.
I'm in love with Bryn and with the music....sigh, so beautiful. What a duet!
