Véritable magie....Jonas est encore inégalé comme Werther, et hors pair, je pense, car il a la voix unique, la beauté romantique, la compréhension du personnage, le pouvoir d'y plonger ... Il ne joue pas Werther, il EST vraiment Werther! Quel bonheur que ce spéctacle en DVD/BD!
Jonas Kaufmann has said it himself--He finally stopped listening to coaches who were pulling him in all directions till he almost lost his voice and now follows what his heart and throat (thanks to1 favorite baritone teacher) feel is the correct technique. To me the man has a gorgeous voice and can sing practically anything operatic. And no amount of supercilious trolling is going to change the fact that Jonas' legacy is firmly established for all to see and hear. Like Maria Callas, he doesn't claim perfection, but the number of fans he can count on indicates that his detractors will vanish, nameless, into the wind, while the singer lives on triumphantly.
Kaufmann has a very beautiful voice, and this Werther is especially beautiful. There is no perfection in humanity, that is a fact. This does not mean that he is best suited to certain roles than others. His voice is changing, it is easy to compare some arias from longer than five years ago with the ones he sings today. It happens to all opera singers. Popularity is not a sign of excellence, but in this case, Kaufmann is popular and very good indeed.
Jonas Kaufmann est simplement superbe dans le rôle de Werther... Magnifique interpretation. Et Sophie Koch est aussi une Charlotte incroyable! Merci pour télécharger c'est video!
Un des plus beaux rôles de Jonas Kaufmann. J'ai découvert cet opéra et en ai visionné le DVD il y a peu, et j'étais totalement charmée, émue, fascinée par cette voix, ce jeu d'acteur.
Bravo! Merci pour la publication de cet extrait. Enfin un magnifique ténor; viril, sensible et nuance! De plus un ténor pour qui la valeur des mots est tout aussi importante que la musique, surtout en français, c'est rare! Vivement son récital a Montréal en Février j'ai hâte!
quelle émotion au contraire .comme la désespérance de WERTHER est magnifiquement communiquée.beaucoup de puissance sans aucune violence contrairement à certains ténors qui invectivent le soufle du printemps.quand au timbre barytonnant de sa voix ce n'est pas un problème.Massenet avait prévu que Werther pourrait être chanté par u n baryton.tout simplement magnifique.
I saw Jonas and Sophie by way of a live performance from the Met Opera via HD transmission in a local movie theater today and they were both brilliant.
Kaufmann is by far the most magnificent tenor I have heard. He should be the standard by which the rest of tenors are judged. I would go anywhere across the ocean to hear him live, and intend to.
To hear J.Kaufmann singing is like seeing Nureyev rising an arm. Pure poetry . This is what makes an interpreter a great artist.that s why there are so many interpreters and so few great artists.
Guys, how can you be so critical. He has an extraordinary tenor voice. Most likely the best in the world today. Who do you know who can sing it better than Kaufman.
Sin duda el mejor Werther de todos los tiempos. Sepultados están los que ya murieron y no voy a hablar de ellos pero Massenette puede quedarse tranquilo que hay sucesores del bel canto que tomen el guante y resuciten su obra maestra como el genial compositor lo merece.
Get the DVD. The sound and picture are better. And you get the whole performance with all the singers who are superb. The staging is appropriate as well.
Jonas Kauffmann melts my pants everytime, and I'm not even gay, I was listening to the sucky Carmen that he recorded with Magdalena Kozena the other day, and I remember rolling my eyes and melting every time he was singing, that recording should have been called Don Jose
I completely agree with brown bradley. Kaufmann manages to be truly expressive while never losing an ounce of masculinity. Koch strikes the perfect balance between control and losing control.
Who is these crazy Mario Pietta, it cannot be serious, Jonas Kaufmann is the most perfekt Werther, it's like this opera specially has composed for him, dear Mario listen tho his concert, where he starts with "Dies Bildnis ist bezaubernd schön., than he sings Lohengrin and Tristan and ends with "Freunde das leben ist lebenswert", call me one tenor who can this and all very good.
Stunning and beautiful music and singing. Has anyone noticed that the video is backward? reversed? Don't know what term to use. I've never seen this before. How did this happen?
I was always taught that, if you have nothing good to say, then say nothing at all. Some of the comments here are cruel and remember that if you don't personally like a singer, it does not make them bad.
Véritable magie....Jonas est encore inégalé comme Werther, et hors pair, je pense, car il a la voix unique, la beauté romantique, la compréhension du personnage, le pouvoir d'y plonger ... Il ne joue pas Werther, il EST vraiment Werther!
Quel bonheur que ce spéctacle en DVD/BD!
Ein Meister der Stimme mit Ausdruck und Dramatik, eine hervorragende Leistung mit viel Qualität.
What wonderful talent! Kaufman may very well be the greatest tenor ever.
Absolument extraordinaire. Sans conteste, la plus belle voix de ténor de notre temps. Et en plus, un acteur consommé.
Jonas Kaufmann me donne des frissons. Son Werther est
Exceptionnel! Merci.

Bravo jonasKAufman
I personally find him quite close to perfection.

It gives me the goosebumps listening to Kaufmann's magnificent voice.
I totaly agree with you; Kaufmann is an outstanding musician, and actor. Top level.

Il m' ont fait pleurer avec Sophie Koch à l'Opéra de Paris. Quels merveilleux artistes !
This is beyond belief amazing! Jonas Kaufmann has become the preeminent Werther singing today.
Quelle voix magnifique et puissante!
Kaufmann is excellent here! Sounds beautiful and his acting is great. And he's very much a romantic type. Real Werther, indeed!
Simply the greatest performance of the aria and scene I have ever seen or heard.
Merveilleux kauffman qui m'a fait pleurer tant de fois avec cette voix sublime
Jonas Kaufmann est simplement superbe dans le rôle de Werther... Magnifique interpretation. Et Sophie Koch est aussi une Charlotte incroyable! Merci pour télécharger c'est video!
Condivido il suo apprezzamento per Sophie. Per Jonas è scontato. Grande Jonas!
Un des plus grand chanteurs de tout les temps ! One of the best singer of all times ! C'est si beau ! It is so beautiful !
Le meilleur ténor du monde
He is Werther. He is the best!!!!!
And Blake, your great tenor voice makes me both cry and smile. You are a young master. We both love Kaufmann!
Bravo Jonas!!!! Extraordinaire!!!
C,est si émouvant. Quelle voix extraordinaire. Sublime!

C'est vrai. Le magnifique baryton francais, Ludovic Tezier, vient de la chanter a Vienne. C'etait une interpretation merveilleuse aussi.
I saw Jonas and Sophie by way of a live performance from the Met Opera via HD
transmission in a local movie theater today and they were both brilliant.
I was there, at the MET these day, and was really unbelievable.......it's impossible to find a better Werther than him.....
I think Italian tenor Giuseppe Sabbatini was a
marvelous Werther in his day. There is a
live video of him singing this aria on you tube.
Kaufmann is by far the most magnificent tenor I have heard. He should be the standard by which the rest of tenors are judged. I would go anywhere across the ocean to hear him live, and intend to.
Yes.
I love his voice.
To hear J.Kaufmann singing is like seeing Nureyev rising an arm.
Pure poetry .
This is what makes an interpreter a great artist.that s why there are so many interpreters and so few great artists.
Best performing!
Aria is perfect match for Mr. Kaufmann. No one else yet,...
Made me cry. Mr. Kaufmann you are a master!
Amazing performance!!!Tooop!!!!
I love the subtitles too... Great voices! For both of them.

Grande Maestro la sua voce è melodia
Absolutely outstanding performance!
Unbelievable singing from Kaufmann.
Absolument fabuleux ce Jonas !
2010, and with Sophie Koch. Love the subtitles! Seriously, great, great video.
Amazing!!!
Guys, how can you be so critical. He has an extraordinary tenor voice. Most likely the best in the world today. Who do you know who can sing it better than Kaufman.
+Deborah Ayache
I agree with you. The most extraordinary tenor of our century, and the best Werther of all times.
It is not the best
Georges Thill, and Alfredo Kraus, are in the running.
Rolando Villazon...
Saw this at The Met this year...DELICIOUS!
AMAZING!!!!
wonderful
Bellísima Aria ..¡¡ Magnifica interpretación de Jonas Kaufmann..¡¡
Chapeau! magnificent what a beautiful voice, and stage presence. Love him.
absolutely favulouse bouth
Sin duda el mejor Werther de todos los tiempos. Sepultados están los que ya murieron y no voy a hablar de ellos pero Massenette puede quedarse tranquilo que hay sucesores del bel canto que tomen el guante y resuciten su obra maestra como el genial compositor lo merece.
Divino!
Love his manly and expressive voice
Stunning
J'adooooore....Quelle merveille ....! J'en pleure.....

He is the greatest wether of the century
Bravo Jonas!
Oh Jonas Kaufmnann.....
fantastisch - ich sah ihn gestern mit Sophie Koch via HD the MET opera. Sehr ergreifend.
René Pariente: Trés beau Ténor. Werther Est ici magnifique.
Une voix formidable.Raul Ribeiro
WOW!!
Get the DVD. The sound and picture are better. And you get the whole performance with all the singers who are superb. The staging is appropriate as well.
Kaufman like a treasure voice and amazing acting skills better than as Hollywood actors
Glorious.
Au Metropolitan Opera superbe passage un bel acte 3...
oh que bien canta !!
Jonas Kauffmann melts my pants everytime, and I'm not even gay, I was listening to the sucky Carmen that he recorded with Magdalena Kozena the other day, and I remember rolling my eyes and melting every time he was singing, that recording should have been called Don Jose
I CANT BELIEVE SOME OF THESE COMMENTS - WHAT AN INCREDIBLE VOICE. - MABY YOU SHOULD GO LISTEN TO THE BEIBER KID. HE HAS GOOD EXPRESSIONS.
I completely agree with brown bradley. Kaufmann manages to be truly expressive while never losing an ounce of masculinity. Koch strikes the perfect balance between control and losing control.
💗💗💗
Concetta Nardone: The most beautiful tenor aria ever written.
가슴 절절한......
Das ist ein einfach nur geil
Bravissimo...nur eins Wort
wild and crazy!
And opera, I would add.
Agradecería subtítulos en español en este maravilloso whether
Jonas is a outstanding tenor, like most German tenor, with dark and heavy voice, for this French aria , kind weird.
He is not acting, he IS Werther.
MAGNIFICO SIEMPRE
Who is these crazy Mario Pietta, it cannot be serious, Jonas Kaufmann is the most perfekt Werther, it's like this opera specially has composed for him, dear Mario listen tho his concert, where he starts with "Dies Bildnis ist bezaubernd schön., than he sings Lohengrin and Tristan and ends with "Freunde das leben ist lebenswert", call me one tenor who can this and all very good.
And Odol, very properly, cuts the most dramatic moments.
I agree - no better Werther
WAHO!
Subtitles are inverted because German is not cruel enough, If you can make it difficult, why easy, then?
Stunning and beautiful music and singing. Has anyone noticed that the video is backward? reversed? Don't know what term to use. I've never seen this before. How did this happen?
I was always taught that, if you have nothing good to say, then say nothing at all. Some of the comments here are cruel and remember that if you don't personally like a singer, it does not make them bad.
E la Sophie Koch? Brava attrice e ottima cantante!
