Resulta estimado Juan que justamente el Director de Orquesta es Carlos Kleiber, considerado por muchos el Mejor Director del Siglo XX! No es casualidad! De padre austriaco y formado desde los 5 hasta los 18 años en Argentina. Y que jamas se quito el CARLOS aun cuando regreso a Europa.

Agree 1000%!

What do mean by "later years"?

@@Castorp-wn7dh When Pavarotti started his career he sang bel canto roles, well suited to the exceptionally beautiful lyric tenor voice he possessed.It was not a big voice, like Corelli, Domingo, and similar Spinto Tenors.His upper and middle voice excellent, but lower voice weak.Due to his huge record sales, both record companies and opera houses wanted him to sing some of the heavier roles better suited to Spinto Tenors in particular Wagner also Puccini, Mascagni.When Pavarotti recorded operas better suited to Spinto/Dramatic tenors Caluf in Aida for example his voice could be tuned up, but when he sang these roles on a stage his technique and small voice could not meet the demands of heavy dramatic roles.All.voices decline with age but I do believe singing roles not suited to his voice hastened the usual decline as singers age.Pavarotti's impact on opera was huge, he was 71 when he died, a voice of exceptional beauty one of the best leggero tenors in the history of operatic singing.

@@peterholwill1170 Have you ever heard Pavarotti live in an opera house?

@@Castorp-wn7dh Yes I have at Covent Garden 1965, it was his breakthrough in Donizetti's La fille de regiment.It's was his performance in this role which gave him the title 'King of the High C's' in one aria he sang nine effortless high C's and curtain calls went on forever.

I’d die

Madre mía...hace una interpretación e ésta joya de Puccini maravillosa...de los mejores Rodolfo sinó el mejor...voz perfecta para el rol.

Absolutely

Until you listen to Roberto Alagna's live rendition here: ruclips.net/video/1KZa6RypYO8/видео.html

@@MrAldila His performance was indeed beautiful but, to my ear, not up to Pav. To each his/her own. Pav has power to spare, it like he's not even trying. Insane breath control and resonance. Check out Pav's Budapest performance from 1986.

@@randalcolucci6833 i agree with you

@@mushyartuk6045 Right? The Budapest "Che Gelida Manina" was his best I feel and you can see it in his face. He felt good that night....confident and strong. And it showed in his awesome performance resulting in a nearly 3 minute ovation. Pav is the best.

Wonderfully put-i feel the exact same way.

I feel the same way. What a tragedy to have missed him live....in any capacity.
