What a wonderful singer and what a voice! Seeing Vickers and Fischer-Dieskau in Das Lied at the Music Ctr in Los Angeles was the most marvelous and magical evening--what a treat and never to be forgotten! Bless you Mr. Vickers!
Wow what a dream pairing!!!
One of the best tenors of all time!
Brilliant singer & Actor.Thank you for posting.•♫♪ ॐ¸¸.•*¨*•♫
What a great voice Vickers had, and great acting skills. He really owned his parts. This opera has some of the most uplifting, ethereal music I've ever heard. Sad that this whole performance is not available on DVD, but what a great scene this is!
Yes, totally agree. What a phenomenal talent Jon Vickers was!
Fantastic disturbing wonderful Beethoven
Maria Callas said ,” At last ! A tenor who can act “!
I've said it elsewhere but there is absolutely no comparison between Vickers and someone like MdM. Vickers is the most complete artist/singer/musician/actor I have ever seen.
👏👏👏👏❤
Bravo!!!!! Maestro ❤💯👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Bravo.
how does a piece like this remain hidden and rarely heard ? A great nation will someday find it as their anthem.
"Fidelio" is played all over Germany regularly. It is the first ever written opera in German, so over here it's quite will known. But the roles are quite hard to sing. I am working on Florestan at the moment and it's really tiring to sing. And this scene is only the beginning of the roles, even is it in the second act.
@@JanKristofSchliepTenor Thank you. We have family there and my wife speaks German. We also have one opera singer, a man and an old friend long. gone. Charlotte Meis who did Wagner and she played on old record of one of her performances pre-hitler.
La primera ópera en alemán fue "El rapto en el serallo" ¿no?
La flauta magica también es anterior a Fidelio.
Al fin y al cabo, el himno de Europa también lo compuso Beethoven.
The "best" Florestan (by far!) at least of the half dozen I have heard on record. Greg is this from a performance available on DVD possibly at the ROH or Salzburg? I obviously have the Klemperer and Karajan recordings actually preferring the latter overall for the whole cast of great singers.
This is evidently a segment, the only one I know of, from a performance by Vickers with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra conducted by Franz-Paul Decker in 1974.
Amen!
uh....James King
@@chumbleyr another great tenor with a voice right for the part, but just lacking that sheer power and beauty of tone which Vickers uniquely possessed - mind you a lot of people don't like Vickers' voice full stop! I think James King is in the Karl Bohm video of Fidelio?
Interesting to compare with James King. The aria ends in hysteria. Which performance is better?
