Amazing wonderful voice and a look that really rocks into Attila himself!!!, He was a tall huge, muscular guy with a voice so strong and deep that he is really scarry on scene. BRAVO (Viva Jerome Hines the best bass of America!!!)
Presencié el estreno de Attila en el Teatro Colón de Buenos Aires,protagonizado por Hines. Lo esperé a la salida y me firmó un autógrafo. Recuerdo que era de estatura gigantesca y muy amable.Han pasado 50 años y lo recuerdo perfectamente. Gracias.
This is a real bass, not Ramey, d'Arcangelo, Pertusi, Raimondi. Listen to the space in the sound - the open throat. the natural emission, not the woofy, small, wooden sound.
For sure on the higher notes, yes I agree but overall vocal presentation? I'd argue with you on that as Hines gives you a true classic Dramatic bass (what the role calls for as well as high F's) whereas Ramey is higher in scale (Bass-Baritone to be exact).
I also like Ramey more in nearly everything between these two. His technique is better and more lined up in everything the sings, but Hines has a bigger, darker sound that people are attracted to in a bass voice. However, Ramey IS a true bass. He is a lyric bass, while Hines is more towards the dramatic side.
Yes, lol, this is blasphemy, but that is okay! I had the pleasure of hearing both men sing both in large houses and in small spaces. Ramey is truly one of the greatest singers who ever lived. ButHines was a phenomenon. Up close the voice was probably 10 times the volume of Ramey, utterly enveloping, completely dark, brilliantly bright, inhuman. In the house it was like a quartet singing together it was so rich. The fact that such a massive, rich and complex sound could do these vocal gymnastics and with a more refined legato and consistent tone is impossible. Impossible ! Ramey in contrast is simply the greatest human recording of the piece. Hines singing it is impossible!
@@landscapetransformationwit6018 You are correct Sir Ramey and Hines are both Great Singers.To compare them is utter nonsense. To criticize Hines in any way is blasphemy ! Jerome Hines was indeed a Bass voice we will not hear the likes of again ! What God put into that man was phenomenal! The power and range of his instrument will not be equaled. Ramey was very gifted, a beautiful and impressive instrument but Hines could blow him away in one breath . People who only heard recordings and saw videos of Hines cannot get the full impact of the man's art or his physical aura. The voice was consummately controlled from top to bottom and Lord what a sound ! Ramey was wonderful and I loved his performances and voice but Hines is legendary and the best Bass instrument I ever heard or ever expect to hear. He was absolutely incredible to experience.
He a moustache and eyebrows appropriate for the characterization of the role. Was he supposed to be in his blonde hair, culturally appropriating the role? You're an idiot. One could argue it being "racist" had he anything on his eyes, but he didn't, in case the bad quality of this video gives that impression. Once again, you're an idiot.
Only people who habitually breathe through their mouth categorize that as "racism". (including "professors" of entire BS academic branches, mind you) Those with IQ >> 80 might easily detect the pattern in performing arts that _rather often,_ people display people who _they are not._ Such as Napoleon Bonaparte, King Henry, or even Attila - all of which, for reasons that must be a mystery to people like you, were indisposed at all attempted performances, so they had to make due with people _acting_ as though they were those people who they are, in fact, not - including disguise and all.
Questo si che è un' Attila credibile, vocalmente, fisicamente e scenicamente . Semplicemente favoloso .

Not only of America but of the whole world.

Back in the 50s or 60s, the Met should have staged "Attila" with Hines in the title role.

As to "Attila", Ramey _owns_ the role, though Abdrazakov has proved himself a worthy successor.
Another great one was Ghiaurov.
Ghiaurov was solid on everything, some of his interpretation aren’t the best though. Things he does interpret well however are very good.
It may be blasphemy, but I think Ramey's is better.
Neal F not really

Unabashedly racist makeup lmao but what an amazing voice nonetheless. It ain’t opera without a dash of racism 😂 it adds to the charm I guess?
