Congratulations : Back in great form. For all his admirerers : Excerpt from his recent Elsir in Vienna ( duet with Ekaterina Siurina ) can be witnessed on youtube now. Keywords : Rolando Villazon duet Ekaterina Siurina . Enjoy......
I love the costumes and make up, everything looks like a painting to me; and obviously I love to hear Rolando's voice. I hope this very controversial production will be recorded on DVD.
So moving, vocally vulnerable or not-- it adds to this aria, this scene. Rolando,so moving. Rolando, if it's true-- work on your Russian pronunciation-- I don't want anyone saying anything negative about you in November! I heard Rolando's Traviata in Zurich a month later-- the 2nd act was bold and beautiful. It was all beautiful.
Great singing, almost perfect Russian! Rolando is wonderful here!!! I am glad he toned it down a bit, but what the ...? Hideous production! Petr Ilyich turning in his grave
@papidou1934 sans compter que le chant est mesuré, profond, prenant. Définitivement inclassable ce Villazon : ici admirable, exaspérant là... Un peu comme Dessay, il aura marquer la scène de sa personnalité.
I saw this production in Berlin and I found that it killed the emotion - with the exception of this aria, when Rolando managed to move the audience - in spite of the incongruous gestures and the ridiculous makeup.
Esto es un verdadero asesinato de una ópera hermosísima, la expresión lírica en su mejor expresión, música conmovedora! El imbécil que hizo esta puesta es un cretino. Nunca había visto una burla tan grosera que ataca a los dos autores que no se pueden defender y que son artistas inmensos aunque haga cientos de años entre el músico y el poeta que ya no están en este mundo. Tampoco hay derecho a imponer a los intérpretes una carnavalada estúpida y sin sentido. ¿Qué pretenden escenógrafo, director teatral, productor, etc., etc.? El Maestro Barenboim se debe haber visto obligado a dirigir este engendro infernal, pero no creo que estuviera muy de acuerdo .... Soy Amelia SABIN PAZ, desde Córdoba en la Argentina. Estoy rabiosa!
WOW! he is back!! thank you so much for posting this video! to imagine that in this very moment he's singing this aria in berlin! my friend is there and she is texting me, she says the audience didnt respond very well, how did you feel the audience?
Que espanto! Si odian la opera dedíquense a otra cosa!!!! Es un insulto a Pushkin, a Tchaikovsky y al público. Y también a los cantantes que tienen que hacer el ridículo lastimosamente.
"Regardless of your opinions on Villazon's voice, you have to admit that every single high note in this recording is flat. For those of you that know Russian, you must admit the Russian pronunciation is wrong and not a result of vowel modification for technical purposes. The obvious problem at 5:33 is a result of less obvious problems for the entirety of the aria leading up to that point - bad choices throughout the aria have tired his voice... he had no prayer of making it through that part."
I loved this production! Best "Eugen Onegin" ever! And what a comeback for Rolando!
What a hellish looking production
Very good acting-singing. Congrats for the succesfull return Rolando.

nice
l'angle de la prise de vue ajoute encore à la mise en scène...intéressant..
Чайковский в гробу перевернулся от такой постановки.Вильясон конечно выше всяких похвал ,как всегда.
Там , в Берлине, режопера процветает.
Correction: now that I heard the whole thing - her got lost and garbled the phrase at 5:33-37 in terms of text, but singing is still very good.

Lovely, despite the distracting gesturing...
эт они типа березы?...что за бред. а Вилазон молодец
opera 21 veka..himicheskoe penie....
Sounds like Tchaikovsky, looks like Pagliacci...
That's my opinion and point of view: but Tchaikovsky and Leoncavallo couldn't walk together ...
