This is incredible. I especially love the way he's just about to strike Almaviva's coat again when the bell rings and he hurriedly throws the stick aside to run to serve the man he's just declared war on; it's a great comedic beat. I'd say my very first favourite of Ramey's was the finale/Il Commendatore-scene from Don Giovanni. No matter how many versions of Don Giovanni I see, in my opinion, no one has ever done that part with as much singing skill, devilish charm and charisma as Ramey.
Yes, the stick throwing is one of my favourite moments, too! Don Giovanni was also one of the first operas I watched with Samuel Ramey and one of my absolute favourites. I will definitely be posting fragments here, including the final scene. Totally agreed, he is the best Don Giovanni ever, so handsome, seductive, and devilish at the same time. I am not even going to mention the singing and those crisp recitatives! 😍🥰
Favoloso! Attila e' stato il primo togliermi il fiato!
Attila è meraviglioso! Ogni interpretazione di Samuel Ramey è stata una scoperta incredibile ❤ 😍
