Tenor High D Battle: Le Postillon De Lonjumeau
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- This is not my favorite compilation I’ve made. Tenors seldom make it above C securely.
My personal favorites are The Last Two:
Samuel Kim And Nicolai Gedda
I hope you enjoy it!
More videos to come soon
Gedda's is so thrilling because it feels totally connected to his torso, connected to the chest, not just a head tone with no dynamic connection to the rest of the voice.
Nicolai Gedda! Even from bottom to top... complete ease on the high D and such a beautiful tone!
He was the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gedda is tops.
Between Canonici and Gedda, for the D, but overall Gedda for whole performance and ringing top note
Gedda FTW, all the way!
GEDDA #1
Dear dear Nicolai - My all time favourite . Easily yours . 🙂
No doubt Gedda's high D is the best and most integrated with the rest of his voice. But Joseph Schmidt is also great. Most of the others sound like falsetto, or worse. Where is Helge Roswaenge's brilliant version?
Nicolai Gedda.
Some are singing strengthened falsetto you can tell hearing the break coming down the scale
Gedda owns it . Fully connected bravo 👏
Rosewaenge should be included here as in my opinion for an overall performance is the next best.
Yes, also wanted to write about Rosewaenge.
Gedda was the best by far
Nicolai Gedda is outstanding!❤
I'd say most of them should leave the notes above tenor high C to metal singers 😁🤘 But Samuel Kim's, Nicolai Gedda's and Juan Diego Florez's high D's were awesome!
For me, Nicolai Gedda. From Rio de Janeiro.
Gedda wins, hands down although Kim is impressive vocally
Gedda
Just to clarify since a lot of people in the comments are not understading how voice works (sorry for being rude).
High D in chest voice (the only operatic sound accepted nowadays):
-Gedda
-Schmidt
-Behle
-Rockwell Blake
-Florez
-Canonici
-Kim
Voice mix:
-Ertl (terrible)
-Aichorn (terrible)
-Hoppe
Pure falsetto
-Legay
Falsettone (falsetto but with cavity and less chords closure)
-Schock
Where is Rosvaenge ?
Gedda 💪😎
Used Gedda's version to hook friends on opera. Thrilled to order the entire opera elegantly done on dvd with Spyres.
Gedda and J D Florez. I think. There is a sameness in quality all up to the top. Amazing.
Verdammt ---------Nicolai Gedda ist unreicht !!
This samples confirm my statement: Nicolai Gedda was the best tenor of 20th and 21th century. There was great singers but Mo. Gedda was one of a kind.
No contest. This is Gedda's aria.
I disagree! Michael Spyres stole it!
Gedda - he was simply the best!
Because he does it with ease a beauty - what a master voice
I think Legay does better in the 1952 recording- but I'm biased because that's the one I listen to the most. Overall endearing and well done performance by all. His lead in is similarly soft, I like that contrast, but the vibrato is much less wide and it's more energetic (albeit shorter.)
However, Gedda takes the cake for this one. AMAZING! I liked Hoppe too! Really strong.
Hands down, Nicolai Gedda with Samuel Kim in second place
Gedda. Schmidt. Flórez.
"Who do you like most?" - What a silly question: There is only GEDDA!
Where is Rosvaenge's version from May 1936 or even the 1928 version with two D's?(Note--NOT the film version) Better than most, if not all, of these.
Andreas sounds like he ate an Ertl
Only Gedda’s is ligitimate: the rest are atrocious.
110% AGREE!!
Rudolf Schock is decent. But my boy, Helge Rosvaenge didn't even make the cut
What the hell was the second one???
Manoli S.
Hey, Don’t ask me!😂
It was dreadful though!
His tone is very spread and Shaky.
Shinobi Vocals it’s absolutely terrible and wtf is with the modern instruments in the background like? WHAT IN THE HELL.!
Manoli S. I couldn’t agree more.
I just figured I should show the good the bad and unfortunately the Ugly.
Shinobi Vocals lol!
This was the Swedish Tenor
Reminder to the people in the comments, they are being asked to sing a high D a note above the normal extent of what they are asked to sing.
There's a recording by Schmidt on UA-cam where he sings a D. I'm not sure it's the same recording you used but, if it is, one of them is off.
what is the name of this aria please?... I want to have a go at it
"Mes amis, écoutez l'histoire" from Adolphe Adam's opera LE POSTILLON DE LONJUMEAU
Where is Adolf Dallapozza?
Chacun le sien, Gerra incontournbable, Rockwell Blake facile et belle surprise de Luca Canonici.

Where is the BEST? Where is HELGE ROSVAENGE?
5:54
Helge Rosvaenge is the best imo
Where is Josef Traxel?
I agree with you Traxel probably the best high D recorded
The most is high E and not D...
Ertl and Legay were actually bad... Behle was B, as was Blake and Florez,.... Canonici was an A, as was Kim and Geddas. Canonici being my favourite.
Legay obviously just sang falsetto, but at least it was pleasant and tasteful. Some of these are just squeezed out and terrible.
Bastante penosos todos.
Canta tú Rober, tal vez lo haces mejor que todos ellos. Algunos, como Gedda, Canonici y Kim, suenan como una combinación de voz mixta, brillante, potente y expansiva. Flórez da la nota, pero se le afloja el vibrato y no es expansiva. Otros, se oyen velados y muy pobres de voz. Lástima que Giacomo Lauri-Volpi, Nino Martini, Eugene Conley y Alfredo Kraus no grabaron esta aria. Pero tú podrías superar a algunos de ellos, ¿no? Saludos, Robert.
Of course Gedda. But listen to Adolf Dallapozza too. He is second best imho.
