I agree with Degiorgio. Only idiots can dislike anything so beautifully executed. Brought tears to my eyes. It just couldn't have been better. A big WELL DONE, Mr Calleja. You made us truly proud. Bravu u Prosit tassew. tc.
Brilliant Tenor......Brilliant Voice......you really showed what you can offer. Good luck for your future. The Maltese are behind you always. Mario Mosta
I love this man, he's so real, genuine and honest in his performances 👌💖 And who can resist his happy, bubbly and warm personality! His eyes light up when he smiles and cannot hide his affection for the British people, wears his heart on his sleeve 😍 God bless him and God bless Malta for bringing us the gift that is Joseph Calleja!
I had the privilege of seeing this man sing Polione at the Met in October 2017. His sound reminds me of Bjoerling and so does his musicianship. He is a fine artist and a friendly, kind hearted man who talked with me after Norma at the Met. One of the finest tenors around today.
Oh my! a great tenor is here. His voice reminds me of Kraus but somehow his voice is sweeter and darker I'm astonished. thanks for the upload. God bless the internet and UA-cam.
I first heard Josef Calleja singing this, thanks to UA-cam, in 2012. It was definitely one of the all-time great performances of Nessun Dorma and I was instantly a fan. Three or four years later, I was sitting on a bench in the English Garden in Munich and an unshaven character in a track suit came ambling past. I didn't think much about it until he was about fifty yards past, when I suddenly thought I know that face. It was too late to go running after him but I sent him a message on Twitter the following evening, explaining that if I had caught up with him, I would have told him what a fine singer he was. He re-tweeted my message in what must have been the interval of his performance at the Bayerische Staatsoper.
Well done Joseph. Superb performance by a top artist. Bring tears to my eyes. Watched the whole programme with pride. Make us proud to be Maltese, and shows the talent that can be found in such a small island. Bravo!!
Mr. Calleja performs this incredible aria with crispness, clarity, and with conviction. This is a wonderful addition to those that performed that magnificent aria...~~CR~~
FOR ME JOSEPH CALLEJA IS ONE OF THE WORLD GREATEST TENOR'S , I AM SURE THAT HE WILL BE FAMOUS AS THE LATE TENOR MARIO LANZA . AND I AM SAY THAT NOT BECOUSE I AM MALTESE ! THANKS JOSEPH YOU ARE MAKING US SO PROUD TO BE MALTESE !
I was lucky to hear his voice for the first time, when I was Germany in 2013 and was immediately enthralled; it may not have the volume of Pavarotti, but I'd give anything the have been able to sing like that, when I did.
I was told that the lyrics of opera were usually simplistic even trite, it was the power of the singer and orchestra that made them so memorable, this video with lyrics proves that correct. loved it anyway.
A super star was born!!He and Rlondo Villazon are liding todays Opera.At our sorrow Dmitry is dad.Viva Calleja!Viva Villazon!The opera has a briliant future!!!
Thanks for posting his entire performance of the aria. Tonight's BBC video stopped short and denied us the chance to hear that spectacular vincerò finale.
I believe this is absolutely the best version of Nessun Dorma I have heard to-date. Magnificent! Flawless. Sung with great controlled passion. Truly wondrous to behold.
Sorry to disagree with you, it's a decent enough version don't get me wrong but it's far from the best version. He cuts several notes off and rushes upto the big finale to gather his breath, Pavarotti made it look and sound effortless sung in a higher timbre and held the power notes for longer and in my opinion his version remains the benchmark.
And Luciano was singing those "benchmark" versions between the ages of 45 and 55. Wait till Calleja gets to that age. If you were in your early 30's and headlining Last Night of the Proms you would be nervous too...
What can one say but, WOW!!!
His voice brings tears to my eyes!!! Spectacular voice.
Magnifique
I agree with Degiorgio. Only idiots can dislike anything so beautifully executed. Brought tears to my eyes. It just couldn't have been better. A big WELL DONE, Mr Calleja. You made us truly proud. Bravu u Prosit tassew. tc.

I love this man, he's so real, genuine and honest in his performances 👌💖 And who can resist his happy, bubbly and warm personality!

I agree wholeheartedly that his is a voice of greatness. Such warmth, sweetness, power and heart I never hoped to hear again! Bravo maestro!

El mejor tenor de Malta.. He sido muy afortunada de haber conocido a un familiar de este talentoso artist a.. Que Dios te bendiga Joseph!! 💙🙏

Meder Mellina. And not only in Malta, for me, he is the best in the world.
The conductor sings along on the last "Vincero !"
way to go Sir! Bravo! My acid test is when the hair stands up on my neck and you Sir did that ! Very nice!
He truly is amazing!!
Wow ! What a voice.
A super star was born!!He and Rlondo Villazon are liding todays Opera.At our sorrow Dmitry is dad.Viva Calleja!Viva Villazon!The opera has a briliant future!!!
Exquisite
WHAT A BEAUTY!!
Nothing much more to add...Prosit Joseph, you make Malta proud...you make Lasallians even more proud
Мне повезло слышать его вживую однажды в Москве. От этого голоса мурашки по спине бегают, он прекрасен.
ONE OF MY FAVORITES, DONE WELL TOO ! great.....................
17 people didn't like this? Seriously? This is magnificent. Well done!!!
The Nestor tenor in the world. Really the best
That moment when the conductor looks to the soloist for the cue to move on...incredible musicianship and craft!
Thanks for posting his entire performance of the aria. Tonight's BBC video stopped short and denied us the chance to hear that spectacular vincerò finale.
linda voz. adorei.
Malta's wonderful tenor sensation
Bjorling put other tenors in the shade - so does Joseph Calleja. They have a gentle sweetness in their voices which the others don't have.
Wonderful!
???? No way. He isn't Björling...
If this does not bring tears to your eyes, you're dead!
Sir Your tender strong glorious blessings make me weep with the beauty of it all!♥️🎄♥️
I believe this is absolutely the best version of Nessun Dorma I have heard to-date. Magnificent! Flawless. Sung with great controlled passion. Truly wondrous to behold.
es ist ein trauerspiel, dass es in Deutschland keine Veranstaltung gibt wie diese last night, da. kann man great Britain nur gratulieren

Joseph is in his early 30's?...I thought he was a lot older then that, more like early 40's.
Totally agree, way the best version I have ever heard, and I have heard all the greats.
Proud to be Maltese - Prosit Joseph!
Only just discovered this guy. What a marvelous Tenor, and still so young!
Bravu, bravu u brabu!
Excellent voice, nice guy !
Yes! Magnificent!
Fantastic rendition
This marvelous man makes me so proud of being Maltese!
Love the conductor singing along with him.
