Gioiello donizettiano giustamente rientrato in repertorio. Carreras gli presta la voce più bella che il disco documenti, e nel suo periodo migliore. Timbro, fraseggio, musicalità, maschera, respirazione, legato, morbidezza, risonanza e acuti: nel '77 erano al top. 💚
The opera world fell for him ,then the rest of the world,such a voice and good looks always sung full of feeling and emotion ,a great man in every way ,Bravo Carreras !!
Such a sweet, powerful, moving voice. If you let it, his voice will take you on a journey, showing you glimpses of beauty and ecstasy as he puts himself in service to the music.
@libro07 I am also one who thinks Josep Carreras's voice in his greatest years - and often beyond - transports us to the zenith of warmth, power and emotion. His voice is simply devastatingly beautiful. He can rip out your soul, or restore it to peace. I particularly appreciate your pointing out the loss to the public who only know him from the 3 tenors. They have missed out on a rare miracle of sound and heart.
yes. his voice like a beautiful piece of Jade, not harsh mental, so youthful with fresh sparkles... his texture is total unique and I will never be tired of his glorious singing. People did not give him credit on his stage presence and artistry. Total package is next to no one.
Para un tenor estar en la primera terna de tenores tiene que tener una carrera completa. Carreras en plenitud duro muy poco, con 40 años ya tenía graves problemas de emisión de voz y antes de la enfermedad. Tenía una bellísima pero una técnica poco sana y unido a la mala elección de repertorio, desembocó en un declive temprano.
I have never listened to him before, other than in passing, and I am amazed at what I have missed. He has a Corelli quality with added sweetness. Why was his prime so short? It's so sad! I believe he developed cancer at some point -- was that in 1978?
His prime was shortened presumably by choosing roles that were a bit too heavy. His cancer was in the mid 80's but by the early 80's the bloom was gone from his voice. From 74-78 he was pure magic.
Un voz hermosa que por desgracia por querer imitar a Pippo, cometió los mismos errores que él y con 40 años ya tenía graves problemas de emisión, por forzar la voz y no saber escoger el repertorio.

Thanks for sharing. Maestro del Belcanto Carreras!

J'étais dans la salle de l'Archevêché d'Aix, et Carreras en Roberto Devereux est un des plus grands souvenirs de ma vie de spectateur.
Queste recite restano un termine di paragone insuperabile per tutti i tenori che, dopo Carreras, si accostano alla bellissima parte di Devereux.
Thank you for sharing this amazing video. Wow! His voice, his singing. Just wonderful!
Such a sweet, powerful, moving voice. If you let it, his voice will take you on a journey, showing you glimpses of beauty and ecstasy as he puts himself in service to the music.
je ne savais pas que la voix d'un chanteur pouvait atteindre de tels sommets de beauté
Musicianship, intelligence, understanding of language, phrasing and good looks. 👏👏
Lucky the ones who had the delight to listen to Carreras' sining since the 80's as I have. Sheer pleasure!
Only Carrreras can sing in this way,full of emotion
BRAVO!!!!!
Bravissimo, que bien canta el rol completo con Caballé. Esta función es intachable
Such feeling & passion. He is my favourite & love him to bits.
Bravo Josep.
Che voce magnifica

I totally agree with you!

It's such a thrill and a relief to hear young Carreras flip out those effortless A♮- Bs!
How can Josep sing so beautifully, be so good-looking, and still get away with it!
Gheeah,
I agree with you 100% Carreras still
thrills me to this day.
únicoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, te amo!!!!
@tenorgoodfella
Me either. Top three of all time!! The beauty, passionate delivery, and yes...even the technique. I love it all.

@MsF1Annie And to quote a favorite childhood cartoon character, Snagglepuss:
"I love him to pieces..........to CRUMBS even :~)
It is sad that his prime only lasted for a short time because his singing was amazing from 1975-1978
I have never listened to him before, other than in passing, and I am amazed at what I have missed. He has a Corelli quality with added sweetness. Why was his prime so short? It's so sad! I believe he developed cancer at some point -- was that in 1978?

Nice performance. Too bad the sound quality of the recording is so poor.
See a link to a better quality in my comment above. Enjoy
Really?
I would say 1972 until 1979 around his first Carlo.
Un voz hermosa que por desgracia por querer imitar a Pippo, cometió los mismos errores que él y con 40 años ya tenía graves problemas de emisión, por forzar la voz y no saber escoger el repertorio.
Una voz bellísima, una lástima que comenzara a cantar repertorio pesado para su voz y comenzara su declive demasiado rápido.
