An incredibly good version, with almost inhuman level of control and dynamic... This one, in my opinion, is just as good as Sergei Lemeshev's version and practically surpasses Alain Vanzo's. Also, what is your opinion on Russian singers like Lemeshev and Kozlovsky?
@@SilverSingingMethod Hadley had a great voice. The technique that he was taught by Lomonoco made him sing vibrant and strong. The problems I see with this approuch to singing technique is the lack of mezza voce and no notes above high C and a tendency to sing slightly under pitch in and above the passagio. Hadley didn't sing flat but other singers using this technique do.
Ma la musica è scritta così. “Pour ténor lyrique”, e le opere francese sono basate sullo stile della Comédie Francaise, non per il bel canto, in cui falsetto era la tecnica preferita.
Screw the castrates, they are gone, now it's time for real men to sing the way everything should be sung - with full voice. Compositors are dead as well and the old world is gone, so who cares about their vision? Singers can do whatever they want and people can listen to whatever they want and buy or not buy tickets or recordings. It's business based on demand.
This is opera and must be sung in full voice. He also sang like a man and not like an annoying, whiny, English choirboy, American conservatory sound. Fight me.
@@ciociosan English critics drove Tom Burke abroad to find work. They criticised him as being "too strong". He returned to England in his later years. My father heard him at the old Wimbledon Civic Hall when Tom was in his 80's. The place was renowned for bad acoustics but my father said that didn't deter Tom. Even at the age he was he used his foot to gently push away the microphone to indicate to take it away, then he filled the place with his enormous voice. Didn't need a microphone at all. I think he is buried in Croydon, and sadly passed away quite poor which is terrible considering what he gave to the world. It seems a lot of English don't like good powerful voices. They are not so encouraged with work here. How can a singer of opera be "too strong"?

I was in the balcony the night he débuted in this role! The most beautiful tenor voice I have ever heard.
That is so nice.
Not used to hearing this Aria so full voice. I love it! Thank you Jerry.
He truly had the silver.
I believe every word this man is singing! He's a true artist!
Glorious, true lyric tenor approach to this piece.
LOVE this aria. And what a free voice, powerful and totally controlled.
Impeccable !Heartfelt ! Such a beautiful and piena voce.He has old school technique .

Perfect!

Lemeshev was good. Smaller voice and not as much dynamic control. Excellent though.

What do you say about this roumanian tenor? În my opinion he is verry good.
I like Gedda's the best, but this one is very good too
2:19 this aria should be sung piano
Give me a break.
Silver Singing Method haha aren’t people annoying
Dynamic is relative.

La voce è molto bella!
Ma tutti gli acuti estremi sono in falsetto...peccato

Disappointed... Why does he begin the aria with full ass volume.?
meravigliosa voce,grandissimo Artista peccato non ci sia più.
