    Is there anythign that is not simply superlative, nearly flawless by Spyres? The timbre, the vocal production, the range, the musicality, the diction, the expressive phrasing, the vibrancy of the tone, the coloratura and trills, the control of dynamics, the knowledge of the musical style, the uniformly rock-solid development of his low notes as well as his highest notes. He's got everything, in many ways he reminds me the legendary Gedda. People should be more aware that we're living amidst one of the best tenors in many, many decades.

    Beautifully sung. Playful, expressive throughout the range and trills sung were (here it comes) AMAZING! I don’t think I’ve heard such accomplished trills from a tenor before. Also, remarkable good and strong, sustained low notes from a high voice. I do not speak French fluently but his is excellent also. Bravo!!

    • @boundary2580
      @boundary2580 3 года назад +1

      @XDranzer000 his voice is truly ridiculous. The video of him singing largo del factotum has him showing off a truest baritonal mid range and even has him singing a quiet but still audible low C during the “Fígaro!” bits. I think he is ultimately some kind of freak tenor rather than a baritone because he is far to full and comfortable on his highs to be a baritone.

    So glad to hear Mr. Spyres in the soft French repertoire : he is such at home and currently matchless in this latter. I haven't heard such a good Postillon since Luca Canonici, but if Mr. Spyres' high D is not as powerful as Luca Canonici's, his French is so much better, just perfect.

    Mes amis, écoutez l'histoire
    D'un jeune et galant postillon.
    C'est véridique, on peut m'en croire
    Et connu de tout le canton.
    Quand il passait dans un village,
    Tout le beau sexe était ravi
    Et le cœur de la plus sauvage
    Galopait en croupe avec lui.
    Oh Oh Oh Oh
    Qu'il était beau le postillon de Lonjumeau
    Maintes dames de haut parage
    En l'absence de son mari
    Parfois se mettaient en voyage
    Pour être conduites par lui.
    Au procédé toujours fidèle
    On savait qu'adroit postillon
    S'il versait parfois une belle
    Ce n'était que sur le gazon.
    Oh Oh Oh Oh
    Qu'il était beau le postillon de Lonjumeau
    Mais pour conduire un équipage,
    Voilà qu'un soir il est parti
    Depuis ce temps dans le village
    On n'entend plus parler de lui
    Mais ne déplorez pas sa perte
    Car de l'hymen suivant la loi
    La reine d'une île déserte
    De ses sujets l'a nommé roi.
    Oh Oh Oh Oh
    Qu'il était beau le postillon de Lonjumeau

    Yes, this is the kind of repertoire that he has to cling on to and leave that sheer lunacy of thinking that he´s a BARITENOR, and ever worse, sing baritone repertoire. Same as in LES HUGUENOTS or GUILLAUME TELL he has a brilliant and secure canopy of high notes, in this case blasting Chapelou´s wonderful D natural at the end of this splendid aria/raconto. I hope that he makes some sense, some logic and that the steers clear from all the other nonse of which I´ve just spoken. It would be good for him and for the audiences. Let logic and reason prime!!!!

      The whole span of Verdi's career is within the Romantic era, although not as early as the likes of Donizetti.
      I'm interested to hear his low notes in his tenor roles because he started as a baritone and can still sing like one.
