Rossini: La Calunnia - Mark Reizen (in Italian and in Russian)

- An opportunity to hear the great Ukrainian bass in a comic role sung first in Italian and then in Russian. His Italian may not be perfect, he tends to put in doubles where there are none (pianno pianno!) and his super clear diction is actually a sort of handicap here and there, it's still a fine performance from a great artist and one of the most handsome bass voices ever.
SImply astounding-one of the truly great bass voices on record - I never tire of listening to him.
Красивый голос, в котором присутствует природная доброта.
So pleased to hear the wonderful Reizen sing in Italian.
Absolutely breathtaking vocal! Fenomenal!!!
Profondeur et amplitude
puissance et projection comme un jet maîtrise faisant monter et descendre une balle de ping pong ( exercices de vocalises ..) détachement des notes quasi scandees et un legato impressionnant avec de la virtuosité dans la diction . une couleur et un timbre rond et caverneux sans vibrato ,un bonheur .
Great performance by a great singer. Bravo. Thanks for posting.
Talk about his nationality and nationalism in general is completely irrelevant.
Enjoy the music! Forget politics, race and nationalism!
The Russian claunnia was recorded in 1953 as part of a complete recording with with Ivan Kozlovsky and Yelizaveta Shumskaya, while the Italian version is from 1951. Both versions were conducted by Samuel Samosud. Thanks to Khankonchak for this info.
Wow... So good
EINER DER BESTEN
Splendid. Absolu splendid. His vocalism in russian matches my hero Tancredi Pasero, his lung power matches or exceeds the leather lung tenor of all leathers Mario del Monaco, whose largo factotum is the eezy squeezy best in my book.
I think Reizen got more from mother nature than Christoff did, in Christoff the technique is more audible; they were both superlative singers. Christoff sang a large part of his career in Italy which was no doubt a great advantage in his Italian, and of course he spoke Italian though he always had a Slavic accent. Reizen on the other hand sang almost exclusively in the USSR. In the Russian version you can hear that Reizen is enjoying his words more.
Very well put. I couldn't agree more.
Yes, this arzace balks at references to Reizen as Ukrainian, or a Ukrainian-born Jew (though he improperly translates the latter classification, which was my own). "Poor Mark Ossipovich", he says, "...I think he would be astonished by such a provincial status.". Well, vlp92 is correct. There are a number of Russian nationalists on YT who insist on calling musicians like Reizen great "Soviet" or "Russian" artists. It's an "honor" bestowed on a select few, regardless of the artist's origins.
Thanks for the clarifications. I won't delete the comment since it is probably more useful for people to see what your response was referred to. Nationalists, like all extremists and fundamentalists always base their beliefs on a basic error: nothing comes from nowhere; the greatest achievements have been made through the mixing and meeting of cultures and ideas. Instead they close themselves in their self-referential straitjacket, castrating any greatness they wish to celebrate.
I guess these heavily stressed consonants are his way to manage his accent - and he IS superclear, that's fact. Whereas, the Russian pronunciation being very, er, different, there have been singers who, f.ex.actually sang «lasciate» almost like «loshad'» (horse). (I don't want to be wicked, honest !)
Now, that's the sound of TESTOSTERONE !
What? Testosterone does not make any sounds, it's a hormone! I'm guessing you've got issues if you need to make such absurd assertions, why can't you just enjoy the music?
@@CzarDodon Thank you so much for your reply.
Do live in peace and earn the love you spread.
I am yourself, and you are myself.
So lots of love to you, and have a nice journey.
If I understand correctly, using google translator (not the best way of understanding a comment), you are making a point based on your personal nationalist religious convictions. Starting from my info where I say Reizen is Ukrainian: you see that as a somewhat provincial way of specifing Reizen's origins, am I correct?
so do i :)
@CzarDodon Yes, i think that would be the right statement. Because "nationalism" is the belief that a nation has a right to statehood.
Gmyria is for sure Ukrainian singer, and positioned himself as such, but this don't make him provincial even in comparison with Reizen.
These same nationalists, however, won't hesitate to vilify "ordinary" Jews- meaning those who haven't attained Reizen's level of fame and prestige. I too find this labeling despicable in its hypocrisy and have no patience for individuals who make such statements. Once in a while they'll post similar comments on my videos as well. I no longer waste my time arguing and just delete their remarks as soon as I see them.
@vlp92 So once statehood has been achieved and is recognised by the 'international community', nationalisms have little need to continue to be, unless their aim is to oppress the rights of 'other' minorities and that's perhaps where the trouble begins
Molto bravo Reizen.Certo si può eccepire sulla pronuncia italiana,ma vorrei sentire qualsiasi altro cantante,che non sia di lingua slava,far meglio.Grazie
Ghiaurov .
Listen again to them both. Reizen better in every aspect of singing this aria.
If he came from.the planet Zog this would still be a totally astounding bass voice .
@vlp92 Too broad, should I have said extreme nationalists? Unfortunately nationalisms very often set themselves up in opposition to some 'other', (evil, inferior, a natural enemy), despising cultural, ethnic or racial differences and very often claim 'god-given' or 'inherent' rights or supremacies. Such attitudes have been responsible for persistent problems in history and are a huge obstacle to necessary dialogue and civilized solutions. Worst of all when 2 nationalisms are at loggerheads
@CzarDodon
Nothing is wrong with Nationalism. And only a small fraction of nationalists belongs to extremists.
@arzace Это те же господа, что зачисляют Бродского в еврейские поэты (Бродский просто ржал над таким определением) , а Рихтера (тем более!) в украинские пианисты. Глухие к языку, музыке и национальным традициям убогие русофобы.
для ясности добавим что Бродский был крещенным евреем.
@CzarDodon I'd love to see this idea to come to realization. But in real life, nations do not coexist in harmony and everywhere you can see people running a strong nationalistic agenda: in Russia, USA, Europe, China...Everywhere. I think it's often a way to protect some interests of a group. Of course, there are different levels of nationalism and I think that being proud of your culture is fine, but anything further like arrogance toward other nationalities and countries is just stupid.
I detest generalisations of any sort likewise I destest labels
yes, u R right. Russians are typically obsessed with their "greatness", anything Ukrainian for them is like of lower standing. Many wonderful singers came from Ukraine, but they label them Russian :)
Dizione terribille
e vocalità meravigliosa...
esagerato il tuo commento,si capisce ogni parola.
qualche problema con le doppie (come del resto in "terribille")...
