    ...and I was singing the role of Faraone in that scene with him and he sang that E flat practically in my ear. ...the audience went crazy of course ...A very special night !...bravo Rocky !....Carnegie Hall I think.

    A Rossini tenor unrivaled in modern times, the composer would have loved him and written roles for him.

    Supremo!! Penso che (tranne che negli intenditori di Rossini) non ci sia ancora una consapevolezza totale del valore musicale di Blake (e del suo valore storico). Blake è il primo a rianimare el vero canto rossiniano per tenore. E soprattutto nelle opere serie di Rossini, è il primo a cantare e con grande maestria ciò che è scritto nel punteggio. D'altra parte, ci dà un E, in un forte e sonoro falsetto, come secondo Rossini e le testimonianze del suo tempo davano il registro acuto in falsetto i tenori del suo tempo. Nulla a che vedere con quei falsetti piccoli, deboli, pallidi, che nel XX secolo hanno fatto i cosiddetti "tenori di grazia" o tenorini.[Ora dubito che l'E acuto sia o non sia falsetto. Se sembra eccellente, che differenza fa? È una discussione inutile.]

      Falsete?No.Los falsetes se prolongan en la vida vocal del tenor. Él por su bravura sin igual de canto viril y lleno de matices, con el paso del tiempo no pudo volver a ejecutar esas notas, prueba evidente que no es falsete.

      Non e falsetto bensì " FALSETTONE " che è ben altra cosa ...

      @Gerwent47 2 года назад +1

      Parce qu'il n'utilise pas le fausset comme un ténor, mais avec la technique du contre ténor. C'est à dire qu'il est capable d'élargir sa tessiture dans n'importe quel registre, aussi bien grave que médium ou aigu . Par exemple, j'ai entendu dans cette oeuvre qu'il poitrine sur le fausset. Et aucun Tenor contraltino n'était formé et apte à chanter ainsi. J'ignore si actuellement, Rockwell Blake a de successeurs ou non ?

      High E = Amazing singer??? I don't think so. Maestro Blake's absolute mastery of bel canto technique is what makes him an amazing singer.

      Alberto didn't say the E makes Rocky an amazing singer. He said it's an E. He said Rocky's an amazing singer.
      Both are true, and no one equated one with the other. Alberto was happy....let him gush!

      It’s a sharp Eb, eh? And some puritans might burn him for spiking it but screw that. Amazing.
