Holy crap had no idea he ever sang at that age. All of these recordings of him from the 50s and 60s. Incidentally he lived 8 more years passing at 95 in 2019.....he wouldve been 100 later this year (October 2024). This is amazing.
I agree - extraordinary - I would never have imagined that voice was of an old old man - the power & the purity & the high notes. He shouts on the last high note but so what.
@@mediolanumhibernicus3353 He was a very funny Dandini in Belfast Festival's 'Cenerentola. The great Ugo Benelli was the prince and they interacted wonderfully. Alfredo Marriotti was Don Magnifico and the American Sylvia Friedrich was Cenerentola. I was Tisbe and Rhonda Bruce was Clorinda. Richard Van Allen was Alidoro. Walter Susskind was the elegant and witty conductor.
I have the Great Pleasure of Hearing him in 1991 in Così fan tutte in Vienna - 40 years into his great career - and he absolutely dominated a star-studded performance.
Excellent. As an agi g singer myself, i can say that the BREATH is the first thing to go. Long phrases become difficult or impossible . Sustained tones too. Thats the reason he seems to cut off the ends of phrases or it gets shouty. When he is in the upper register its great. And he as stamina and energy ( the 2nd thing to go)
At 87 he is remarkable. Most people at that age can't control their Bowels . His Diaphram is made of of steel. Also has colour in is his voice. What a Man...
Even in his prime he was not one of the great individualistic singers, the kind who do not just sing the written lines, but also add personal twists to express their unique emotions and perspectives. Nevertheless, he was a first rate singer who sang everything solidly, sort of like Merrill and MacNeil. And his voice was one of the greatest baritone sounds ever. All in all, I have always felt that he was underappreciated, and should have received far more oppotunities to sing in the very top opera houses. Generally, the perfectly natural singers who never strain their voices, are the ones who preserve their instruments until very late in life.
come fece Volpi a suo tempo e si gridò al miracolo....e pure Bergonzi...insomma, è più per far felici gli appassionati e render omaggio al grande artista....Non si può giudicare una eseguzione a questa età e nemmeno si dovrebbe farlo
a tad under the pitch, but saying it's embarrassingly out of tune is an exaggeration. Have you heard what some of the modern singer sound like if you think this is bad?
This is far better than a lot of baritones in their prime. I’m sure he was just doing it for fun, and I’m sure he’s well aware of being past his prime. Still a voice full of squillo and beauty
For an 87 year old singer this is incredible. Of course he was way beyond his peak but the fact that he could produce this sound is unbelievable.

Bravo nonno Rolando...una scuola per tutti i giovani cantanti lirici...per l'eternità...
Incredibile! Uno dei grandissimi!!! Grazie per averlo riproposto...

He's 87!!!! OMG,what a beautiful voice.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
He is in total control of his beautiful voice. Wow!!
Mind over matter. An exceptional singers life.
I actually sang with him. 1967.
Fabulous. Can you tell us a little about the experience?

@@janetkenny1974 What a wonderful cast. Lucky Belfast! I had the opportunity of working once with Ugo Benelli, - a very great pleasure.
Amazing how he retained the essential timbre of his voice

Eine noch so kräftige und volle Stimme, das ist enorm.😍
Grazie per questo documento della grande scuola italiana! sono grata al destino di aver conosciuto questo grande artista ed Uomo.

Вообще то он поёт лучше многих молодых!

He might not be controlling his bowels. Could. Be wearing a diaper. I know singers who do….

Legato is everything.
Extraordinario. No se pierde la dulzura de su voz ni el control.
che voce stupenda!
Dove la sente "la voce stupenda" ?!…
A 87 anni! Mamma mia.
Incredible. Thank you so much for posting this.
Incredible!!
Hell yeah! Voice of steel. The old school way.
This is great! He doesn't even sound old. The only issue I hear is breath span, which is completely understandable.
우와~
이분을 뵙고 왔어야 허는데~•••
건강하세요~🍀
마지막 살아계신 이태리 벨깐토의
그란데 마이스트로👍🌹👍
Stupendous! Tough guys finish first!
Fenomeno
Un grande dono di Dio
¡Impresionante!
Bravo Bravo
Loooooooove it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glorious !
Grazie
Цілком можливо, що співає в такому віці. Наш Козловський прославився ще й тим, що виступав у 90 років
Che tristezza…
Kozlovsky was a miracle, tenors today are not worthy of the title tenor, but Kozlovsky was amazing.
The Best
Wow!!
unglaublich
Un verdadero Barítono
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Un grande dono del SIGNORE
My goodness...😢
Удивительно сочно звучит голос в таком преклонном возрасте. Никогда бы не подумала, что такое возможно.
Oggi, i cantanti, si, ci sono ... ma... ieri, c'erno.. eccome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The ends of the phrases are shouted and I am an 81 year old baritone but he still has all the high notes and a lot of power.
✊
Oh my…
Io sono molto rispettoso di un uomo di 87 anni ma…posso dire che è inascoltabile?
Inascoltabili sono i giovani cantanti di oggi. Gridano come se non ci fosse un domani. Non parliamo poi dell’ inesistente interpretazione artistica.
No, non puoi.Se non ti piace, non devi ascoltarlo.
@@annabolena7663 purtroppo per lei lo ascolto.era un grande cantante e negli ultimi anni non lo era più’ .si tratta di semplice anagrafe.
Si, puoi dirlo purtroppo. Questa registrazione non fa onore al grandissimo Panerai.
come fece Volpi a suo tempo e si gridò al miracolo....e pure Bergonzi...insomma, è più per far felici gli appassionati e render omaggio al grande artista....Non si può giudicare una eseguzione a questa età e nemmeno si dovrebbe farlo
Большинство оперних певцов не умеют так петь не только в 87 а и в 40,20 и в любом возрасте
В первую очередь надо иметь голоса …
🥲
Como los cantantes actuales en general, los de ópera también buscan el éxito rápido sin esfuerzo.
Perfetto come un giovane. Forse canta Falstaff ancora
sicuramente lassu nel cielo... con Giuseppe Taddei...
@@leoploner8929Con Giuseppe Taddei canta Ford!😊
@@alfonsomurdl7559 E no... Panarei = eterno Ford...
Damn thumbnail had me thinking this was Donald Trump
straordinaria voce, ma in foto sembrava Azucena !
🧐
He was such an amazing singer! But you have to know when to hang it up!
he should not do this, his voice is still good but listen to other older like Marta Eggerth, still so musical!!!!!!!!!!!
It hurts to hear until one remembers he's 87. It's still painful, but it makes me wonder how he sounded in his prime if this is what's left.
there are lots of recordings of him in his prime, def look them up! ☺
He sounded good but nothing to write home about
@@christopherlau6982 I shall.
При всём уважении, но это скорее декламация. Дж. Верди, это cantabile, legato.
This should be a fellony, regardless of prior achievements
I’m an admirer of his past work but this is embarrassingly out of tune and unmusical.
