Duane and Richard are both incredible artists. I’ve seen them both many times. Interesting story about Glimmerglass; sometimes you’re not appreciated in your own hometown. Kaufmann recently said that Munich shunned him for many years.
@kennethwayne6857 agreed. Some people have to go overseas to get appreciated or valued in America. It's interesting that if you're from a place, they tend to overlook you for some reason. Lol
I cant understand why the recording companies virtually ignored Dwayne Croft. His timbre was so gorgeous and impeccable technique.
My favorite baritone. His legato is unbelievable.
I wish he were still at the Met.

Same with more than one tenor from Argentina. Their country ignored them.

From Hartwick N.Y. I believe!
He's truly a charming man and great baritone! I took a thing or two to apply for my own technique!
I like Dwayne croft a lot more than Thomas Hampson.
Agreed.
