Otra de esas voces maravillosas (de barítono, en este caso) de las que nunca se habla. Voz que merece sin duda, por calidad y cantidad, figurar entre los más destacados barítonos de la historia. Y pensar que Gobbi aparece siempre como referente.... Qué malas son las comparaciones !!!!
In der Tat,dieser Prolog mit Nicolae Herlea ist mit Abstand das alleraller stärkste was ich bisher gehört habe.Ich bin so begeistert,dass ich ihn gleich 2 mal gehört habe.Eine unglaublich schöne Stimme.Danke,lieber Uli für das Geschenk.
Nicolae Herlea sieht sehr gut aus ! Und es ist fast immer so, wer gut aussieht kann auch gut singen. Er kann es hervorragend. Danke lieber Uli dafür. 👆👆👆⚘⚘👆👆
One of the best dark timbre big voiced voices along with Merrill, MacNeil, & Bastianini to handle the Verdi roles after Warren died. Herlea had an exciting sound but was hardly a subtle interpreter in recordings I have heard. For example Rodrigo’s death scene heard on a mid 1960s MET broadcast shows no character to speak of but is still thrilling to hear up to a point. The late Paul Jackson in his second MET broadcast chronicle goes into some detail concerning this. Sometimes I enjoy returning to Herlea’s vocal color which resembles Bastianini in powerful sonority but only in short allotments.
He made aa other recording, almost identical, ao probably another take. The only difference is he holds the high note a bit longer, but ends it with a quick short " voi" ( rather then VOOO EEEE like here. I dont k ow why i wasnt worshipping this man while he was actice. Its a very " tight"voice, bel canto,with a quick vibrato. 8n ways the opposite of Warren ( and occasionally Merrill) who could sound overly loose and blowseyl, especially Warren. Its nice to heard a more refined, less prize fighter approach to this music
Yes indeed, one of the most exciting high notes of a TENOR. One of the so many tenors that learned how to fake a baritone voice. Now, I think that his voice is beautiful and his line and style is superb. And he made a wonderful carrier as a baritone. Good for him that knew how to adapt well to his problems as a tenor. I admire him and listen to him very often.
I do not agree. He was a baritone all his life, with excellent tenor abilities. Never faked his baritone voice. I saw him live, in extraordinary performaces on the stage, as a very convincing Rigoletto, or Figaro. Powerful, ample voice.
If you heard him in the theater and he sounded as you said, perhaps I was wrong in my appreciation. I never heard him in person. I had this recording from many years ago. Obviously, he sounded great! I would have loved to have heard him in person.@@MioaraTraila
:)) faked his voice?! Funny. He was one of the best baritones in history, if not the best. Just that he was behind the iron curtain and he was a very modest person which absolutely never tried to get on top of other singers. An authentic great artist which didn't come from nowhere. He learnt from amazing singers which were were some of the best canto teachers in the world. His class colleagues were amongst the greatest, too.
Agreed, @benjamin. A lot of times voices with so much natural/genetic head dominance have unfairly easy high notes. Warren, Herlea, Cap, Murzaev had very easy access to the top notes that were even better than many tenors but they were all baritones.
Un ténor qui aurait assombri sa voix. Le timbre parait épais, l'aigu est brillant, et pour cause, mais ce n'est pas une voix naturelle. Un exemple particulièrement instructif quant à ce qu'il ne faut pas suivre comme conduite vocale si l'on ne veut pas réduire ses moyens.
abracadoflop commentaire, montrant l'ignorance ou la jalousie peut-être, car Herlea ce maître roumain du chant lyrique a su comme nul autre enchanter son publique par sa voix son talent de scène et sa technique incomparables, qui lui ont permis de grimper ou descendre sur les octaves a sa guise, (comme beaucoup des grands chanteurs lyriques) et a son inspiration mais avec une facilité étonnante grâce à la maîtrise de sa voix ! il a su donner a son publique une voix chaude s'ouvrant en cathédrale vibratoire sonore d'une grande force mais bien maîtrisée, avec un souffle et legato parfaits, pour créer une émotion forte et profonde a ceux qui l'ont écouté et applaudi debout à l'entrée ou sorti de la scène ! ruclips.net/video/4YMiNpNQJMM/видео.html
@jamesaldabo7767 yes it is a ridiculous comment. Herlea's was one of the MOST natural baritones ever. He was born with this voice. And what a voice! The vibrato is free and constant, he flips up to the high note beautifully. Does it sound tenorish? Sure. Its in the tenor territory, but to artificially add weight to it would be unnatural. I cant imagine that note being sung any better. Fantastic. Goose bumps. Check out his Rigoletto with Zeani.
Monsieur. J'ai étudié le chant lyrique il y a bien longtemps et quelques années durant avec un grand maître qu'était mme Leila Ben Sedira. J'avais une voix de ténor avec un medium assez large et comme tout passionné j'aimais les airs pour baryton.....voire de basse chantante.. zurga, marcel, le consul, ' ' nilakanta ,etc.............j' essayai donc un jour traviata " lorsqu'a de foles amours" et d'autres, je vous passe le détail et mon maître appréciait ces instants de récréation....me disant qui peut le plus peut le moins....je vous signale que je viens de passer mes 80 ans et je chante encore sans trop de peine les pages que j'avais apprises alors . Je n'ai pas fait de carrière en raison d 'alea . Je pense que cette anecdote vous conduira à réfléchir sur votre commentaire quant à la voix que vous jugez surfaite de m. Herlea. Avec mes salutations lyriques.

Artist al poporului cel mai renumit bariton român geniala voce❤❤❤
I think it was the best "Al pari di voi" I ever Heard.
Agreed! Absolutely spine-tingling!
The most exciting high note of any baritone--you might swear it was a tenor, but then it descends seamlessly into burnished oak baritone--just wow.
At the beginning of his career, he started as a tenor... :-)
This is the most beautiful Prologue for I Pagliacci I have ever heard. The high notes are splendid. The whole voice is a wonderful piece of jewelry.
The best "Si puo" I have ever listened to. Thank you.

Stunning! Amazing voice!!
Какой красивый голос!!
Maybe the best recorded performance. Certainly HERLEA's best record.
Fantastico
rip grande maestro!
Voce stupenda. Non lo conoscevo. 8:30

Interesting, balanced perspective! You must be referring to the broadcast with Rysanek and Corelli. I need to revisit that.
A handsome and noble voice indeed!
Superb. How come I'd never heard of this guy?
One of the best baritons of the last century,in my opinion.And i've herd most of them in the last 40 years.
Yes definitely one of the very best baritones ever,excellent germont and even better rigoletto,this man had it all,
Величайший Баритонт!!!
Astounding!

the timbre and the where the passaggi lie in his vocal range are that of a baritone. Just has a crazy high extension. Like Cappuccilli.

This, folks, is a baritone. Not the effete simps singing today.
Today basses are baritones, baritones are tenors, and tenors are mosquitos.
@@raffaelepianese9328 Actually, it's the reverse!
