I haven't spent a half-hour so transfixed, in ages. Mr. Brancy has such a peerless instrument and controlled technique, that it makes me both giddy and silently awed. Even his facial expressions convey such a broad depth of understanding and emotion rarely seen onstage, especially in a song competition. I find myself such a critic of today's singers, but Mr. Brancy is exempt. It might be killing one of my own sacred cows to equate this performer to Fischer Dieskau, even though F.-D. wasn't as often an Opera singer, as Mr. Brancy is and will continue to be. I hope I live long enough to hear his voice ripen and bloom with the fine wine of patina in the years ahead, in what promises to be this listener's thrill, and Mr. Brancy's yet greater successes. Bravo. Bravissimo!
This guy is friggin solid and continues to get better.
Beautiful singing. Wonderful posture and delivery . Makes look effortless. Mouth shape perfect. Knows his art. Stunning tone.
Not since I first heard Dmitri Hvorostovsky at the Cardiff Singer of the World Competition in 1989 had I heard a baritone this magnificent. He's got everything to have a great career (and not to be frivolous, looks included) like Hvorostovsky had. His recital was remarkable from beginning to end and his Bleuet and Du bist die Ruh simply to die for. Wish him a long life and brilliant career and look forward to hearing him in many years to come. And my respects to his brilliant accompanist, the two of them make a great duo.
Oh wie wunderbar! Alles alles Gute!🥰
oh my god. This is incredible. I can't remember when I last heard a voice of this caliber. As Mr. Patterson (below) says, "this guy is gonna be HUGE" -- I couldn't agree more.
Superlative performance in every way. Stunning. And kudos to Peter Dugan for his masterful support at the keyboard. A great team!
Love the color of his voice and his voice goes through the whole body like Hvorostovsky.
Mesmerizing...that glorious voice
A truly masterful performance. So elegant but also fierce and completely earnest.
What an incredible vocalist - musically, interpretively, dramatically. Maybe the most technically secure baritone I’ve heard in a long while!
Perhaps the most phenomenal singing actor to emerge in the last decade. I predict this guy is gonna be HUGE.
So do I - John is special!
Zdies Harasho (It's Good Here) at 31:02 is just what I wanted to indulge in this night.
"No people here. Just silence. Just God ...and me. The flowers, the old pine tree. And you, my dreams".
Oh, how you sing this little gem, fills me with awe! Deep gratitude, John Brancy!
Beautiful!
Bravissimo!!
Blew the roof off in Carnegie Hall on Dec 19
Bravo!!
Bravo, bravo, bravo!
I would just LOVE to hear you perform Melodies Passageres.
I am not familiar with that work, but I am 100% certain I would like to hear it, too!
@@DNA350ppm Thomas Hampson’s recording is on UA-cam if you’d like to hear. I think the songs would fit Brancy’s voice like a glove.
@@Greg07623 Thank you for the tip for me. I'm sure this could be right for John Brancy, because he has such a flexible voice. But for me it is too modern, I am not there, yet. I humbly confess that I myseld cannot comprehend this music and therefore not enjoy it. But thanks anyway. You must have a very advanced musical ear and taste, for sure!
I only have come this far in devoloping and educating my ears: ua-cam.com/video/Pk5MqmHv6w0/v-deo.html
@@Greg07623 Here's another with Bells-theme ua-cam.com/video/6IwmFe7Qoj0/v-deo.html
@@DNA350ppm Am curious to know which of them you listened to. Had Puisque Tout Passe in mind when I suggested, which is very lyric and flowing.
Bravo
Please come perform in Ithaca!!
We would love to!
John Brancy are you guys doing ok with the pandemic. Sending positive prayers your way.
@@DietMountainDew_ Holding up... Trying to make some plans to do some recording for all the fans out there. Do you think that would be a good idea?
John Brancy I absolutely agree!! Waiting patiently! We need this more than you know. Music heals, connects us to ourselves, you’re our song!! Keep up the hard work! Wishing you allll my best x
@@DietMountainDew_ I'll keep you posted... means a lot.
MUCH better rep for this young man! (no Verdi for a while...)
