    I've been attending opera for 45 years in great houses from New York to San Francisco, and I've never heard an Italian tenor with such a combination of skills. I've seen him live 12 times now, and he always moves me to my soul with the beauty and passion of his singing and acting. He is one for the ages.

      It is critical that we judge singers in live performance in house. There are so many variables and potential manipulations in a recording or a film. I've heard two baritones in concert in recent times-Gerald Finley and Christopher Maltman-and the person to person experience is radically different to recordings of various sorts. In the hall these voices where outstanding in there fluency. beauty and a thousand more adjectives. No comparison.

    I heard Michael Fabiano for the first time yesterday and was really moved by his singing , he has a true Tenor voice with a refined quality of tone throughout his range with ringing top notes , but what impresses me most is his evenness of rhythm , continuous fluidity of sound , really beautiful intelligent singing !!!

      Dear sir
      Fear is not something I struggle with. True, many singers face issues of fright or difficulty to deliver. I'm fortunate to not have that bone. All singers have there obstacles and their glories ... my glory is being able to get out there and do whatever it is in me to deliver for YOU and yoir friends in the best way possible. I owe it to you since it's you who love opera and seek it out as often as you do. No one is perfect and I certainly won't claim to be a herald of the best. What I can claim is that I go out there and deliver because it's what I love to do and I do it for you.
      I appreciate yoir comments and your opinions and know that us singers note what our fans friends and not-so-fans think bc we desire to do our best for you
      Kindest regards
      Michael

    Certainly an accomplished young voice.....However, to start by predicting greatness is a shaky proposition. It has been said that a great voice is that once heard it is instantly recognizable the next time "his/her" voice is heard again as "his/hers".....Wunderlich, Pavarotti, Melchior, Ramey, Moffo.....I don't believe that such is this voice's quality at this time....But certainly a "clean" sound....So, bravo.

    Le répertoire du msr. Fabien est tres vaste. Il va de Elisire et Manon (Massenet) à Carmen, de Traviata à Poliuto, de Don Carlo à Lucia, Faust et Tosca. Oh là là! Donizzeti, Verdi, Offenbach, Pucini...Bien sûr c'est incroyable, mais vrai. Il est un ténor très polyvalent. On peut dire qu’il chante de tout, mais mal, voire pire. Malheureusement, il ne chante pas, il ne fait pas qu'aboyer. Peut-être paie-t-il pour chanter?

    Please tell me what is all the fuss about with Fabiano? He strains to get his top notes, singing roles that are far too heavy for him and not that pleasant a tone. Listen to Bergonzi to hear how this aria should be sung.

    • @Huaimek861
      @Huaimek861 5 років тому +1

      I would agree with you regarding his singing too heavy roles , but he is a true tenor with a clear tone and easy top notes , but in an aria such as this he is pushing it . I have been a great fan of Bergonzi , but he was a baritone at the beginning of his career , so you would expect a more robust sound as would be required in this role .

      Roberto Jonas This type of singing is not opera quality; the quality that was established by the originals, many of whom worked with the composers. These types of singers would never have been acceptable. Correlli spoke about how inadequate voice were when he was alive. Tebaldi said the same; "all we have are tiny mosquitoes flying around." Listen to the greats of the past who established what opera is and the vocal standards that were set that made it opera. Listen to Tebaldi, Gigli, Caruso, Di Stefano, Ponselle, Ruffo, Merrill, Corelli, Del Monaco, Maipiero, Massini, Scipa, Völker, Thill, Wunderlich, my teacher's student Jerry Hadley - arguably the greatest American tenor. Look up him singing En fermant les yeux - Manon. These singers are on a lever that the singers now can't even touch. They are the standard.
