Quel do acuto.... Un diamante purissimo, poi il diminuendo sembrava dopo Distefano non fosse più possibile eseguirlo meglio,è andato oltre. Fantastico!!!!!!!! ❤
I think that Giuseppe Sabbatini has a so underrated voice by the media, but so beautifully phrased, technically impeccable and so clean, that he deserves to be acknowledged forever. A real Italian voice.
This is a very high class tenor, highly talented, with a very well elaborated technique. Bravo Maestro, we need singers like you to keep opera and it’s future alive!! Questo è un tenore di altissimo livello, di grande talento, con una tecnica molto ben elaborata. Bravo Maestro, abbiamo bisogno di cantanti come te per mantenere vivo l'opera ed è il futuro!! C'est un ténor de très grande classe, très talentueux, avec une technique très élaborée. Bravo Maestro, nous avons besoin de chanteurs comme vous pour garder l'opéra et son avenir en vie !! Dies ist ein sehr hochklassiger Tenor, hochtalentiert, mit einer sehr gut ausgearbeiteten Technik. Bravo Maestro, wir brauchen Sänger wie Sie, um die Oper und ihre Zukunft am Leben zu erhalten!!
GS is VERY underrated and always has been unfortunately. he is one of the most amazing tenors out there, and far superior to most of them today. his technique is amazing and he is rock solid in every way. honestly he is better than many great tenors of the past all around. this is a clinic on pure vocalism.
Mamma mia! It doesn't get any better than this. Just unbelievable, but hearing is believing! And for what my 2 cents are worth, there was not a "drop" of falsetto in the High C. There was however a perfect dimenuendo from full voice to "un fil di voce". Perfetto, Sublime! Ecco un vero Gran Maestro!
The ability to sing a high C in full voice and then diminuendo to piano while transitioning from full to head tone to falsetto is sublime and downright difficult to do. The command this tenor has over his voice is admirable. Bravo for sharing this with the world.
Say what you want people, but this is simply great, I am just learning this aria and it is bloody difficult. He has all, great diction, fantastic musicality and a beautiful timbre as well. I have never heard of this tenor, but this is simply one of the best renditions I have come across. And the High C is nor pushed and never falsetto, it is in perfect shape and control for me. GREAT
Un artista muy superior a aquellos más publicitados en los 90, tanto así, que recién vengo saber de su existencia y el nivel de su arte. Maravilloso!!!!!!!
Una perla!!!!!!!!! La migliore esecuzione mai sentita in assoluto!!!!!!!! Il diminuendo, va oltre il grande Distefano. C'è da inchinarsi dinnanzi a tanta bellezza e perfezione. Incredibile cosa ha fatto, pazzesco🙏👍
I’ve had the good fortune to hear Sabbatini live on two occasions. The first time was at Avery Fisher Hall, where he sang in the Verdi Requiem with Muti conducting La Scala Orchestra and Chorus. Barbara Frittoli (in her prime) was the soprano, Violeta Urmana was the mezzo (she was spectacular back then), and Sam Ramey was the bass. It was a sensational performance. The second time I heard Sabbatini was in Manon at the Met. He was outstanding. Unfortunately, like so many other wonderful singers, he suddenly disappeared from the Met roster. I haven’t heard tenor singing on this level at the Met in many years.
Could you describe his voice as large enough in capacity for the big stages? I mean… compared to Pav. (I don’t know if you had the chance to see him live) could you say that Sabbatini was in the same league about?
Una smorzatura del DO acuto cosî perfetta la abbiamo ascoltata solo da GIUSEPPE DI STEFANO, in una Recita negli USA di oltre 60 Anni or sono !! Great SABATINI 👍 !!!
Es ist schon richtig: Das C allein macht nicht den Tenor! Aber dieser Ton mit seinem Diminuendo verinnerlicht die ganze Arie in einer Weise, die ich noch nicht erlebt habe. Das Glück des Augenblicks ist darin unsterblich geworden. Danke!
@@Mariano-ge6deThe diminuendo in this high C was not made by Kraus. Only di Stefano and Sabbatini have made it. The high C of Franco Corelli in this aria is so powerful y very bright (squilllo). He recorded Faust with Joan Sutherland , but he never sang this role at the opera house. Greetings,
Simplemente maravillosa interpretación. Ese Do agudo con ese diminuendo iimpecabke pocas veces lo he escuchado …que técnica perfecta con la que administra su voz. Bravo!!!
That was the greatest single note I've ever heard, on top of what was already a beautiful performance. I've never heard a decrescendo that beautiful and effortless, jesus christ I can't even begin to describe how awesome that was. Time to dig up more arias from this master!
This was really beautifully sung with sympathetic interpretation and the high C diminuendo was out of the top drawer, REALLY EXCELLENT! I'm a baritone and so don't know the music and whether it calls for a diminuendo or not, but nonetheless Mr Sabbatini's technical control over that diminuendo was phenomenal! Bravo!
magnifico do!!!!! ese diminuendo que hace al final sosteniendo el do...... imprecionanate!!!!! desde corelli y kraus q esto no se escuchaba en vivo.....
Sabbatini was first of all a master in the art of singing. Here we can hear an example of sensitive artistic delivery and delicacy. His high C with an incredibly beautiful diminuendo has the mark of a great singer and artist manrico29
One of the best renditions of the aria with the vocalism and thoughtfulness it deserves! Almost every great tenor has done it beginning with Bjoerling,DiStefano and Gedda being the gold standards.
Sentii Sabbatini debuttare questo ruolo al Teatro dell'Opera di Roma. Bissò quest'aria e in entrambe le esecuzioni sfoderò con grande sicurezza il DO acuto, smorzandolo in modo sublime. La voce è scura e stranamente ampia anche nella parte centrale, con inflessioni quasi baritonali. Quella fu la sera in cui, meritatamente, decollo la sua grande carriera.
This was the best Salute, demeure et chaste et pure, I have heard in a long time. I have heard the Bjorling, at leats two different recordings; my late mom heard Bjorling in this live in the early fifties, and raved. This absolutely on par with Bjorling andl also Kraus. The high C, with diminuendo was ravishingly beautiful. Only the truly great can accomplish that, like Pavarotti in his earlier recording of Celeste Aida when he sings a heartstopping diminuendo at the end . Thanks!
Although it is tempting to focus comment on the spectacular high C, the entire aria is sung with wonderful lyricism, fervor, and unusual attention to phrasing. Even the phrase leading to the C is sung in one breath! I was fortunate to hear him live at the Met in Manon in a memorable performance.
Not a single other tenor even comes close to singing "Salut" as well as this! The whole interpretation was a masterclass in perfection, and that high-C - to bring it down from forte to piano without losing any of the quality - that was just amazing! This is the part in the opera just after Faust has sold his soul to the devil... wondering is Sabbatini didn't do the same ;)
Di Stefano, Bjorling,Lemeshev in Russian more than equal this,but Sabbatini is great here,undoubtedly.If you want to listen to a very good performance from a young tenor today on Faust listen to Nutthaporn Thammathi.Not at maestro Sabbatini's level yet, but he is remarkable at 29-30 years old.
this is the first I've heard of Mr Sabbatini. I think this a beautiful recording if not "exciting". I'm content with beautiful. Note says that this was sung in 1991. I follow opera and I'm surprised that his career wasn't more luminescent ie with Pavorotti and Domingo. Perhaps not not the versatility of voice that is Domingo's but clearly more skilled than many who make a nice nice career and name for themselves. I have heard the control "up top" only from Corelli.
this is outstanding beautiful singing, though there are many great versions from the greats, I think Mr. Sabbatini cultivated this famous aria uniquely his own style. I also enjoy his arias for Mozart's opera. Wish him a long healthy career, more Met performances!!! Bravo,
This rendition is wonderful not only because of the high C, but he sang all the time very nice, as it must be (piano, legatto, as a monologue). Bravo Signore Sabattini. The high C is to crown this perfect interpretation!
Me parece la versión más preciosa y sobrada de ésta aria...voz bella, buen francés, fraseo generoso y matizado, fiato más que generoso, y un agudo final con diminuendo incluido maravilloso y escalofriante ....ME QUITO EL SOMBRERO.

Quel do acuto.... Un diamante purissimo, poi il diminuendo sembrava dopo Distefano non fosse più possibile eseguirlo meglio,è andato oltre. Fantastico!!!!!!!! ❤
That high C and the entire phrase is done so well it’s almost supernatural!
Gorgeous..... and that Morendo/diminuendo!!!!!!!!! bravo
I think that Giuseppe Sabbatini has a so underrated voice by the media, but so beautifully phrased, technically impeccable and so clean, that he deserves to be acknowledged forever. A real Italian voice.
Jose María Mora I agree 1,000,000% with you!
Flawless!

Une pure merveille. Je n’ai jamais entendu un pareil ténor. C’est le plus grand, Il n’y a aucun doute…
An accomplished, effortless performance. A delight to listen to such artistry.
C'é qualcuno che riesce a fare un diminuendo degno di quel nome...finalmente.
Pensavo che dopo Di Stefano fosse impossibile !

Quanto è bravo! Che voce ammaliante, farebbe innamorare anche i sordi! Merita molto di più di quanto ha avuto! ❤️
La mejor versión que conozco. Muchas gracias
Una smorzatura del DO acuto cosî perfetta la abbiamo ascoltata solo da GIUSEPPE DI STEFANO, in una Recita negli USA di oltre 60 Anni or sono !!
Great SABATINI 👍 !!!
En estudio y fuera de estilo. Por cierto, ese piano no está escrito en la partitura. Kraus
Grande grande el pianissimo... Sobre todo..
Nadie la ha cantado así.
Es ist schon richtig: Das C allein macht nicht den Tenor!
Aber dieser Ton mit seinem Diminuendo verinnerlicht die ganze Arie in einer Weise, die ich noch nicht erlebt habe. Das Glück des Augenblicks ist darin unsterblich geworden. Danke!
So, so beautiful! Slower than what I'm used to but I think it made it better. Thank you for posting.
That was the sickest high C ever, bravo
He just raised the standards, BRAVO
This is a really good rendition of this aria. Not to talk about this incredible high C sung in a long phrase. Bravo Sabbatini!
Fantastic High C! As good as Giuseppe di Stefano!
Kraus

Grandissimo Maestro Sabbatini, una voce piccola, gentile ma molto, molto ben educata.
Un fuoriclasse.
Que MAESTRO DE LA VOZ !!!!!!!! Perfecto control, fiato, linea perfecta.
Absolutely magnificent singing of this very difficult aria . Bravo 👏👏👏
Magnífico Tenor lírico de perfecto control del fiato y absoluto manejo del diafragma. Que maravilla de voz!!!
Bravo, bravo Sabbatini, one of the best. We love him very much. Thank you Sabbatini!!!
something to be recorded for ever....one of the best tenor in the world.....
BRAVO! One of the most beautifully sung, and felt, versions I have ever heard.
J'ai écouté des centaines de fois cette aria et son célèbre contre ut et ce monsieur est le meilleur ! Magique !

Ha smorzato ì'acuto finale come pochi altri! Bravo.
Superb projection, expression of the purest lyricism and beautiful voice.
Wow… Just amazing, a true singing lesson !!! Perfect italian technic and great musical performance !!!

Il più bel diminuendo dopo Pippo Di Stefano. Bravo!!
WOW!!! C'est magnifique!!
Stunningly beautiful.
Grande Sabbatini, ed anche grande il direttore e l'orquesta!!!
UAU, WHAT A VOICE AND CONTROL, EXCELLENT, THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN ON THIS ARIA.

Grazie per questa interpetrazione da manuale, e dal vivo!
Giuseppe sei stato un grande!
Estupendo!!! Bravo!! Gran Maestro!!

Beautiful high C diminuendo!!!Bravo
Divine voice!

un immense tenor!

xGyzmOx Amen brother! Salut!
Giuseppe Di Stefano similarly murders this and also did the diminuendo on the high C but decades before this. Worth checking out.
Di Stefano, Bjorling,Lemeshev in Russian more than equal this,but Sabbatini is great here,undoubtedly.If you want to listen to a very good performance from a young tenor today on Faust listen to Nutthaporn Thammathi.Not at maestro Sabbatini's level yet, but he is remarkable at 29-30 years old.
Hum... Kraus? 😕
God. Damn. What a performance.
Bravissimo. Un Do perfetto
Excellent diminuendo on the high C!
Excelente tenor!
Beautifully controlled diminuendo! Bravo
A wonderful singer. what ability!!
Thank you from Uk 🤗
Beautiful and virile
I'm a tenor and I sure as hell am envious of his C... maybe in ten years I'll be able to do that... that C was unbelievable! Practically wet myself!!
¡Diminuendo supremo!
Ô magnifique !
this is the first I've heard of Mr Sabbatini. I think this a beautiful recording if not "exciting". I'm content with beautiful. Note says that this was sung in 1991.

grazie maestro Sabbatini
GIUSEPPE SABBATINI IN "SALUT DEMEURE CHASTE ET PURE" (FAUST)
magnifica performance di Sabbatini in questa difficile aria
Sabbatini. Magnificent tenor!
Reminds me of Kraus and has similar fabulous technique.
Unbelievable 5:40 minute. The best high C and piano Ive ever heard
Never heard such a good interpretation since Alain Vanzo !
This rendition is wonderful not only because of the high C, but he sang all the time very nice, as it must be (piano, legatto, as a monologue).
Bravo Signore Sabattini. The high C is to crown this perfect interpretation!
The best !!!!!
bellissimo il diminuendo sull'acuto
Me parece la versión más preciosa y sobrada de ésta aria...voz bella, buen francés, fraseo generoso y matizado, fiato más que generoso, y un agudo final con diminuendo incluido maravilloso y escalofriante ....ME QUITO EL SOMBRERO.
young Sabbatini was just perfect!
What a magnificent diminuendo. Not just fantastic because it was on a high C but because the rate of volume decrease was so even, so pure,so elegant.
Meraviglioso!!!
Fabulous singing
Diminuendo! What a beauty and mastery.
GRANDE TENORE....SMORZARE UN DO AD ALTA QUOTA ..E 'IMPRESA DI UN TENORE DI ALTRI TEMPI.GRANDE TECNICA.
Excelente tenor! Para esta interpretación tan exquisito como el maestro Kraus
Che BRAVO!!!! MERAVIGLIOSO.....
Apart from being technically perfect and musical in this aria, I find his personality immensely likeable.
Perfección!!!!❤
superbe !
Magnificent!
