- Vittorio Grigolo as Nemorino sings 'Una furtiva lagrima' from Act II of Laurent Pelly's production of Gaetano Donizetti's L'elisir d'amore. Find out more at www.roh.org.uk/...
L'elisir d'amore is one of the most frequently performed of all Donizetti's operas. It combines a touching love story and hilarious comedy with beautiful music, including the much-loved aria 'Una furtiva lagrima'. The opera’s premiere in Milan in 1832 was a triumph and secured Donizetti's place as one of the leading Italian opera composers of his day.
The Royal Opera's charming production is set in the sun-drenched countryside of 1950s Italy, complete with haystacks, Vespas and even a stray dog. It is injected with lively, visual humour, from Nemorino's tipsy clowning to Dulcamara's lumbering truck from which he sells his quack remedies. Donizetti deftly brings his characters alive with a sparkling score: Nemorino's love for Adina is expressed through lyrical arias; Adina’s animated, flamboyant style softens as her feelings towards Nemorino begin to change - and all the while Dulcamara endlessly chatters away with irrepressible self-belief.

It’s an introspective song. His interpretation is a manifestation of his mental and emotional state in character. Absolutely amazing blend of stage movement and musicality. And his voice is of course like steel velvet.
He truly sings! He sings for his life! Amazing!
What a Beautiful song. I like this opera very much. Have steen it 2x 🥰👍
Very moving piece of Opera very beautiful 🥰
He has a new fresh way to interpret that wonderful song. Made it even more wonderful.
What a voice!
i do not understand why people criticize him so much..he is a young man with so much potential and such a beautiful and melodic voice....i have been listing to him since the beginning of his Carrier and he is versatile and his voice is getting better and better..i love his voice and i applaud him...bravo Vittorio
Sonia Oliveira Saw him at ROH in this wonderful Laurent Pelly production and loved it would rather pay to hear VG than the blandness of Fabiano etc
He is probably one of the worst tenors alive today.
@@ssr6036You MUST be kidding me.
Wow, what an amazing actor/performer !! Blessing fron Northern California
He sang his fricken face off! Warm, beautiful voice and seriously easy on the eyes. Bravo!
Love his melodic tone!
caro Vittorio tu sospiri e molti altri lo fanno. Auguri per un futuro sempre più splendido
It feels like a lot of the people commenting on this video are unaware of the concept of interpretation! Yes, he decided to give this aria a melancholy tone, but why does that make his interpretation any less valid? It’s time to stop holding performers up to the likes of Pavarotti and just enjoy opera. As for the acting, he has to project to the very top of the amphitheatre so it didn’t bother me at all. What I just watched was a beautifully sung, fresh take on one of my favourite arias, why not just leave it at that and stop with the frankly pointless criticisms!
It's shit. He is an awful singer, one of the worst.

İ like his voice very much.
Shut up
I agree! I also always thought of this aria as a little bit melancholic as well. Like he cannot believe that it is actually true, or that it finally happened!
He has passion!
FANTASTIC!!!!
Seen him on Monday in Vienna!!!!
Linda demais em todos os tempos! Ouvi pela primeira vez aos 5/6 anos, pois meus pais tinham o hábito de curtir músicas assim!
Красавец да ещё и прекрасно поёт чудо.Браво .Брависсимо.
Welch eine von Vittorio Grigolo wunderschön und gefühlvoll gesungene Tenorarie aus "Der Liebestrank" von Donizetti!
That spin on 3.01 though 😂
Lol he was really feeling himself wasn't he?
3:01
This is very good. Sometimes I think he over does it, but here the phrasing is perfect. There is enough ham as to not over shadow the vocal line so it works.
Dove lo trovi un Nemorino così? Voce grande, recitazione appassionata. Vittorio sei unico.
Beautifully presented bravoooo!
I commenti negativi non possono interessare Vittorio!Vittorio ha un successo straordinario in tutto il mondo perche' ha un grande talento! E' tutta invidia! Vittorio e' unico.❤❤❤❤❤
These comments are incredibly harsh, I have to say. His melisma is some of the best in the biz! And you can really hear that in the final 'non chiedo'.
The only thing Grigolo is good at is over acting and pushing his voice so much that it has a nice wobble in it.

Magnifiek !i love this so much...
Don't forget to turn down the volume before watching your next video..
I was a little undecided whether this was a world class performance of this beautiful aria or not so I revisited Giuseppe Di Stefano to find out.
2mising: Not fair. No one comes close to a young Di Stefano.
@@spider3web221 I have to agree

This rendition is alot more clear and precise as opposed to newyork studio, full of noise and echoes Tutto Bene clarity and melancholic perfect for the Times
He’s great!
is he doing a lot? yes. he is doing So Much. but opera is doing a lot, i feel that he fits the melodrama of the art
I love this song always now
1:17 is wonderfully done. And every other bar as well. But there I got catched.
Senza parole
Villazon's 2005, wildly uninhibited version is my favorite....
No se lo que dices pero opino exactamente lo mismo. VILLAZON'S es grandioso

Si può criticare quanto vuole, però une bel controllo della voce.
Bellissims,opera soprattutto per la musica.
Excellent
Bravo!
very nice
gosh there sure are lot of opera snobs here
I love his singing.
When are you bringing this one back? Pleaseeeee.
4:04 Excelente!
Самое лучшее исполнение партии , это просто грандиозно . Лучше только Карузо ! Плачу ….
powerful and melodic voice..and feeling..absolutely love it
Lovely!!
magnifique !!! peut-être un DVD ?...
I was there ;)
This is giving me nightmares
Grande, grandissimo Vittorio Grigolo appassionatamente originale e denso di emozione e poesia.
BBC played this recording on Radio 3. Really good cast in a lovely opera.
Notice that the upward run on the word "chiedo" (3:26) in the next to the last line does not sound like just a vocal exercise as it sometimes does by other tenors.
Aria doesn't sound effortless like other tenors either
Darren Pene Junior Pati why should it singing isn’t effortless?
Il problema di Grigolo non e capacita vocale, ma capacite mentale. Ama se stesso molto, e si mette sopra l'autore, sopra la partitura! Muti lo darebbe un calciaculo!
Conduvido.in pieno..narciso gli fa un baffo...
Ahahhaha sicuramente. È una rockstar più che un esecutore di opera lirica.
@@rickysword3945 , non conosci le rockstar. Le rockstar sono un'altra cosa, hanno delle qualita' e un grande carisma, Grigolo no, e' uno qualunque, cosi ce ne sono a migliaia nel mondo, e' solo fortuna e canali giusti.
Prenderei te ,con la brutta espressione che hai detto.Cafone! Bravissimo Vittorio,attualmente Unico!
@@francescaboffelli5539 piccolina. Grigolo e lontano di essere unico. Un buffone senza rispeto del donno che il buon dio l'avevo dato. Questo e la mia modesta opinione
New way of singing an aria. I love it. Even opera has to change
No it doesn't, it's only getting worse and Grigolo is a great example of how bad its getting.
Lol, the opera is gonna turn into a musical soon
@@ssr6036 Terrible voice: might as well be crooning.
@@Tin0unoduetre And will definitely need a microphone. This kind of mosquito voice will never be heard over a real orchestra.
@@ngwee1 No, Grigolo is too way over the top to be crooning, nothing cool or classy about his way of singing. It's more like overly hammed up musical theatre style singing, but I take your point.
F all the haters. Post your version if it's so much better. It takes balls to sing on stage. He's singing well with vulnerability and expression.
He is singing like he has been electrocuted. Just wobbles all over the place and overdoes everything. Absolutely awful.
К яйцам , как вы выразилась,
Неплохо бы ещё голову иметь, желательно вокально умную😊
Non ci siamo proprio
Why is he so sad? Nemorino isn't sad in this aria.
👍
Why is he so bad?
@@ssr6036 😅😂😂😂
😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏OMG❤❤❤❤❤
Lovely voice. Bravo!
Non è male, ma lavora troppo. Questo repertorio implica un'emissione più naturale, quieta. Da qui nasce l'eccessiva corporalità e il dispendio energetico, che lo costringono ad allungare le pause per scaricare le tensioni.
Vera, dov'e sua legato?
Vittorio Tremolo
Bellísimo!!!
A little too much "West Side Story" for me.
👋👋👋Wielkie brawa Vittorio
I just read about Grigolo being fired from two mahor opera houses due to his sexual activities while onstage. I wanted to hear him in performance and indeed the world is losing an exceptional performing artist. Here is hoping he seeks the appropriate help for his issues which are now ruining his life.

Аз го виждам.
Ho sentito che l'orchestra segue il tenore. L'aria si prova e il direttore decide il tempo.
It ain't Otello, bro. 🤣 Grigolo is always on 11, and most of the time that's good. But this should be lighter. The voice, however, should be darker as it is at 2:52. That's a beautiful tone he should be encouraged to use more often.
Hermosa y conmovedora interpretación. Gracias por compartir.
I saw this production and I thought he was just perfect . I have also seen him as Cavaradossi and Hoffman . Such a shame that there has been such a lot of negative traffic about him . The production of Faust , which I saw with Michael Fabiano was very raunchy and I know he was Faust with a different cast. . Having been a performer I can tell you that sometimes your role can slip into reality unless you are very guarded . Even in amateur theatre there is a deal of snogging in the wings
very good acting for an opera singer, does the song justice. Just a tad too slow for my taste but thats personal, the difficult cadenza in the end is very well peformed congrats
BEST BEST BEST PERFORMANCE
I'm in love with this guy.
Where is the work out room?

Just great, Vittorio Grigolo!
Magnifica voz gracias por compartirlo
non ci siamo proprio, vibrato eccessivo, pause fuori tempo, voce piatta senza colore, recitazione claunesca. No , siamo evidentemente in crisi di tenori per farlo cantare a Londra
Olá
Fai meglio, tu?
Un mediocre, e' stato raccomandato da Pavarotti.
Damn, these comments are more harsh than an audience at Parma.
Апофеоз дурного вкуса😢😊
Это с первого такта слушать невозможно!
Как хотим, так и поём!
Пишите на афише - мюзикл
И не будет вопросов😊
Troppo saporito!
nice instrument... but why the mannered crooning and super pianissimo falsetto? Didn't the conductor have a talk with him during rehearsals?
It's his interpretation. Not everyone is going to feel Nemorino's moment of transformation the same way. Personally I prefer Juan Diego Florez' interpretation, but Griggolo is entitled to play it as he feels it.
Holy shit could that be more condescending. Why don’t you get on stage and take a crack at it, tenor boy
for all you naysayers, jealousy will get you nowhere.
Bad singing on the other hand, obviously got Grigolo places. But then again, when everyone is used to crap, this is probably good.
quante smorfie per un'aria così delicata...non è mica niun mi tema!!!su su
Matteo Gasparri Permettimi di dire che Grigolo ha un suo carattere e non necessariamente deve conformarsi a stili sempre uguali.. Ricordiamoci poi che è l'orchestra a seguire il tenore e non viceversa. Può non piacerti, e questo riguarda solo un tuo personale giudizio ma non una sentenza condivisibile. Ricordiamoci che la strafamosa Gioconda conosciuta in tutto il mondo, al Louvre nessuno la guarda con tanto interesse perché è un piccolo quadro. Bisogna aprire le nostre menti e godere di cose proposte da diverse angolazioni, bisogna leggerne il sottotesto, cosa che pochi sanno fare. In questo caso il sottotesto è messo a disposizione dall'esecutore per il suo pubblico. Se non riuscissimo ad apprezzare e godere della personale e unica interpretazione di un esecutore, resteremmo per sempre dei pessimi e inutili critici.
@@erosg91 , guarda che siamo cresciuti dentro il Louvre e ti faccio notare, se non l'hai mai visitato, che tutto il pubblico sta davanti alla Gioconda e che non e' un piccolo quadro e che le altre opere capitali sono quasi prive di spettatori. Grigolo e' invece piuttosto piccolo e non se n'e' accorto ancora nessuno...o pochi...
Canta meglio Filianoti, poi la Scala nel 2008 l'ha fatto fuori x far posto ai vari Meli Sartori Grigolo, una manica di raccomandati.
@Eros Grimaldi con tutto il rispetto, il fatto che il mio parere ( di moltissimi probabilmente troppi mi creda) non sia condivisibile è scontato, per cui questa dissertazione filosofica la trovo vuota, come vuoti sono i teatri in confronto a qualche decennio fa di voci e artisti seri seppur diversi tra loro
我喜欢。J'ai aime.
That is the kind of music suitable for his voice, not heavy spinto roles. He should stick to this repertoire.
He doesn't know the meaning of LEGATO. Listen to Pavarotti (his "idol") and you'll hear.
The only smart comment here!
Ma lui si crede piu bravo di Pavarotti.....
I would but can't hear him (Vittorio)... Some mumbling but can't know if he is mumbling with legato or not. Sorry.
No belcanto here
UNA FURTIVA LACRIMA
O pobre Nemorino vê a lágrima, de maneira incerta,
No rosto da amada Adina e surge a ária Una furtiva
Lacrima", da ópera 'L'elisir D'amore', de Donizetti,
É, de certo modo, a nosso ver, arriscada assertiva.
Nemorino delira de amor e, mui enternecido, sente:
"Como se meus suspiros fossem dela, e seus suspiros
fossem meus!" A impressão que se tem, na aparente
Situação, ela pode também, numa época de vampiros.
A Covid -19 começa a fazer mudança em quase tudo:
Trabalho, lazer, passeios, viagens, relação de namorada,
Onde tudo na vida sai da rotina e começa a ficar mudo.
Há busca por novos rumos, mas dentro da roda girada
É a densa consciência planetária indo pra longe embora
Arrastando os valores que o dinheiro fez a arrancada. (*)
(*) FERNANDO PINHEIRO, presidente da Academia de Letras dos Funcionários do Banco do Brasil. - UNA FURTIVA LACRIMA (poesia), de Fernando Pinheiro. - in O mundo de Morfeu, de Fernando Pinheiro.
Very beautiful.......
Where are all these critical comments everyone is talking about?
He's constantly late. Apparently no interest in the conductor. Also, what's with the hands...
***** Exactly, exactly as the great of the past (Caruso, and Bergonzi also). And a conductor that doesn't know how to manage with singers' tempi is not an opera conductor.
Somehow I doubt that either one of you is a professional musician. If we arrive at a situation where a singer is above the music they are performing, we have truly killed art. Not only is that unprofessional but just plain bad musicianship.
Well, he studied with Pavarotti, who was notorious for coming in at the last second. Just watch some of his videos. :)
You can see Grigolo looking at the conductor continually, and they are together quite well. This is the tenor's big number, and there's nothing wrong with taking some latitude. I've heard much more latitude than this. Opera composers of the bel canto era expected soloists to make arias their own. Listen how spare the accompaniment is on this.
He has a beautiful voice and still growing and learning, so we have much to look forward to. He sang Hoffman in the Met broadcast last week and made it sound easy. I believe he could have sung it again.
If you listened to his interview on the broadcast, he is well aware that he's criticized for the hands and the writhing and is hoping some French rep will help calm that down. He is high energy, to say the least. I mostly hear him on the radio so not a problem for me.
The conductor is supposed to the singer not the other way around. If he’s late, that is the singer’s choice.
Luckily he backed out of Simon Cowell's Popera Group, Il Divo.
Is that where he's from?
sing with a microphone, look at the cable behind his neck. It offends this attitude. Take it out and they will not hear your voice in a theater no matter how small it is.
Whatever about micro, his voice piccolo, like pafetic pavarotti, but struggling everytime. He got only a muscles and nothing more. For deaf ladies and deaf old ladies. He is a big joker. And how he is playing, for fun, sure!
There are a great many skills and techniques that unfortunately are being lost to the world in this non stoppable advance of technology and I think that projection of the singing voice is one them. I recall reading Tito Gobbi's autobiography where he told of listening to Tito Schipa singing sotto voce on the stage of the Verona Arena in the 1930's where his every note and word was heard clearly on the back row. Is there anyone who could do that today ? No one can do it because there is no one left to teach it.

Ma come è possibile che canti al Royal Opera House, esistono tenori meno blasonati che sono nettamente superiori a Grigolo, mi ha impressionato ascoltare il tenore cinese Yijie Shi che ė ad un altro livello per tecnica, bellezza della voce e stile.
E' stato ben raccomandato da Pavarotti.
In tal caso mi viene di pensar male di Pavarotti, ha raccomandato qualcuno che è 'piombo' rispetto a lui che è 'platino'. Basta ascoltare la differenza in 'Angelo casto e bel' del duca d'Alba
@@waltermiccia4280 Io non stravedo nenche x Pavarotti, lei ha idea di quanti tenori sono stati superiori al tenore romagnolo pesarese?Basta ascoltare Bruno Prevedi e siamo gia' a un altro livello

Too much vibrato?
@@username-jc2tp I wouldn't exactly call it vibrato. He just wobbles all over the place. He has no squillo, and everything is so over the top. No elegance, no finess just push push push.

Какая такая интерпретация!😂
Это просто не академический вокал!

Very good technic but terrible acting. Exaggeration does not mean energy.
nasduro this was for the cinema relay so he’s acting for the cameras and for the people hundreds of metres away at the back of the amphitheatre not just for the front stalls
brilliant. much better than pavarotti
