Dmitri Hvorostovsky - Ombra mai fù from Xerxes (CSOTW, 16th June 1989)

- Dmitri Hvorostovsky (1962-2017) performing "Ombra mai fù" from Handel's opera Xerxes during the 5th preliminary round of the 1989 BBC Cardiff Singer Of The World competition.
The phenomenal showdown with contemporary Bryn Terfel during the Main Prize final soon became known as the 'Battle of the Baritones' and, until this day, marks one of the highlights of the competition's history.
The Russian baritone took the Main Prize that year. He was one of the world’s most extraordinary operatic singers, with a great appreciation for the works of Verdi and Tchaikovsky in particular. He embodied a great variety of characters, including Onegin, Yeletsky, Germont, Don Giovanni, Rigoletto, Count di Luna and many more, at the most renowned opera houses worldwide. He was equally a sought after recitalist, with his repertoire covering a great variety of composers, from Russia and beyond.
In 2019, the Cardiff Singer Audience Prize was dedicated to his memory.

We all miss this great Russian talented baritone
Forever and ever ♾️💫
Such a short but glittering career. He had it all, a sublime voice, dashing good looks, sunny personality and a superb performer, the angels must have badly wanted him for themselves to steal him away from us all so young.
AMEN 🙏💕

Tears falling

Only this man could use a voice of that deep depth and power to sing this piece and keep it lyrical. His untimely demise was such a terrible thing. He was a genius.

I couldn't agree more. My favorite singer bar none. I was fortunate enough to travel to Germany to see him do a recital at the Berlin Philharmonic. One of the highlights of my life.
I bet someone else could sing it

nccc.. no one, the humongous tone volume is a problem even for mezzo-soprano in the written register, it is simply difficult aria... @@williamgass9242
Tears that this voice is no longer in our world…. Rest In Peace Always

Lovely man. Exquisite voice. Marvellous aria. Maestro indeed. Tragic loss to the world.

Superb would be an understatement for this man's immense talent.

Probably the greatest ever winner of the Cardiff Singer of the World competition
He was up against Brynn Tyrfel that year. Brynn won the lied prize. I don’t think they knew what to do, Dmitri was obviously the better lied singer, and Brynn could do things that Dmitri couldn’t at this point like Wagner. But Dmitri was clearly on these performances the better overall singer. I don’t think they’ve ever had two truly world class talents compete against each other again. By all accounts they both rated the hell out of each other.
An absolute embarrassment of riches that year.
Lyric, powerful lower register, amazing phrasing and diction Stunning presence on stage. Handsome as hell. Bravo dear Dimitri. Bravo. You are missed dearly
Diction is good, just one mistake: it is cara, not caro.
His is the most beautiful voice I have ever heard and I have been listening to opera singers and otherwise for about fifty years his is the most beautiful bar none!!!
His expression is supreme and not to be compared to any other!!! no one compares to his intense expression , to my ear!!!I I have been playing music for sixty years, so I have heard a lot of music!!!!
He often looked so serious, but there is that clip when he sings the Pearl Fisher duet
with Jonas Kaufmann, where he lights up for some reason.
@@mademoiselledusfonctionell1609 C'est qu'ils étaient encore très encadrés à l'époque. Quand il a gagné à Toulouse en 1988, ce devait être juste avant la pérestroïka, il est venu encadré par deux agents du KGB! Il a fallu probablement plusieurs années avant qu'il se détende.
The first time I heard him sing I cried, it was so beautiful. What a treasure.
😢😊
Today November 22 - the 6th death anniversary of Dmitri,the anniversary of His departure into Eternity on St.Cecylia's Day - a patron of music and singing.
No matter how much time passes,the pain of loss does not subside.
May God give His soul eternal Peace and a safe resting place with Him.
Forever in our hearts...❤️🔥

Inesquecivel .
Eternamenre em nossos corações.
Deve estar cantando para o $enhor como entoava maravilhosamente suas preces
Obrigada you tube que nos permite ouvi-lo ainda.
Ñão passo um dia sequer se me deliciar vendo seus recitais e apreciando suas músicas ,suas atitudes no palco com oss colegas
❤deve estar agora cantando para o Senhor como sempre fazia aqui cantando á capela louvores maravilbosos .
Com respeito ,fervor
Divine! The most wonderful baritone of all time ❤. His passing is a terrible loss to the Opera world and for his family. R.I.P 🙏
I agree, entirely.
Ooooh ! This guy is dead ? I did not know . I randomly fell upon his videos today . May he rest in peace
His magnificent voice just got better as he got older. It's so sad that he left us at such a relatively young age.
Yes, it is. So sad.
Как много даров получил Дмитрий Хворостовский от Бога: вместе с божественным баритоном ещё внешне прекрасный облик, музыкальность, глубокий ум и много других даров. Какая радость видеть и слышать этого гениального, такого разносторонне одаренного певца. Очень, очень жаль, что эта звезда закатила ь так рано. Вечная, светлая память великому музыканту.
😂😊
I heard him often in London at the ROH and the Barbican. Best male singer I have ever heard live. I still have the pen he used to sign my programme - a treasured possession. RIP
wow, you thief! lol
It was mine in the first place! 😊
He was a gift , only once in a lifetime can we hear such a perfect voice.This is my favourite..How wonderful that you met him ...
Браво, бис! Как жаль, что Дмитрия Хворостовского, с нами нет. Светлая память!
One of the greatest voices to come out of Cardiff Singer of the World!
Wondrous singing, perfect musical phrasing and magnetic stage presence. Hard to be believe he was only 26.
Как молод, а какая уверенность, ведение звука, артикуляция, дикционная корректность! Чудо природы и человечества! Как много соединилось в одном творце! Как много успел за недолгую жизнь! Ушёл на гребне и пике мастерства! Оставил нам свой неповторимый дар и свою бессмертную любовь к жизни, пению и людям!
Очарована много лет сейчас слушаю плачу
А мне кажется, что он надорвался от жизни, так как хотел многое успеть, потому так рано ушёл, мой земляк. 😢
😂
@@GriFox Что смешного Вы прочли в тексте?
Браво , Дмитрий Хворостовский , лучший баритон мира !
Ever
I fully agree!
He died so young!
He will never be forgotten.
RIP.
A space flight! It is impossible not to love You,it is impossible to forget You,Maestro!
The soul flies away and tears of purification and admiration...
Thanks to You I managed to touch something unimaginably beautiful...
You will always be in our hearts,You will breathe with us and in us...those of us who love You❣️💝💫
Percebo que nosso adorável Maestro DMITRY, vem conquistando novos fãs a cada dia. Sou feliz por DH ter me escolhido também.
Oh that first note! I remember thinking the first time I heard this that he had made a mistake starting so loud. Thinking he had left himself nowhere to go with the crescendo. Oh boy was I wrong. I still haven’t heard anyone sing the crescendo like he sang it. Xx❤
Sein decrescendo zeigt die wahre, vor allem technische Klasse dieser Stimme. Einfach Weltklasse. Allerdings ist die Interpretation dieser Arie etwas zu opernhaft.

Сердце замирает и ликует, слушая его. Великий Дмитрий Хворостовский, лучший на все времена! Вечная слава!
Wonderful, wonderful! Pitty he left us too soon!!!
Absolutely stylistically and technically fantastic! A musical artist that brought incredible depth of expression and richness to the world of opera.
Lo descubro tardiamente y quedo admirada por su portentosa y bella voz. Triste saber que partió tempranamente hace un tiempo!!
he messed up one word though. caro instead of cara
Удивительная душа,и самый красивый артист .таких как он больше нет
I am convinced that Dimitri Hvorostovsky's soulful expression and eyes turned heavenwards convinced judges to award First place to him. His teacher evidently encouraged him to show emotion, which he did, to stunning effect. Bravo Maestro!
18.07.2023 BBC Music Magazine : Dmitri is in the top ten "the greatest baritones who have made an impact on the world stage and in the recording studio."His vocal creations became an inspiration for contemporary artists,no doubt.
12.10.2023 Classic fM:
"We explore 25 of the greatest opera stars all time - from 18th century to today."
Dmitri is in fourth place in this ranking.
Great Artist,no doubt.

"Ombra mai fu", one of my favorites sung by the most divine voice! You'll be hanging on his every word from the first note! Never heard anything so beautiful. Heavenly beauty. Dmitri's voice sounds like a prayer. You can listen endlessly! More beauty doesn't exist! The ultimate perfection!Dear Dmitri how we miss you! ♥️🎶🙏
Not every word though. "Caro" was wrong, he had a wrong text. It is "cara"
Mort si jeune! Un talent et une musicalité d' exception. Un artiste qui ne decevait jamais quel que soit le repertoire. Merci Dimitri ❤
Still one of the most beautiful interpretations, we miss you so much Dima! Keep singing in heaven, we love you
The beauty and mastery of this performance engraved Dmitri Hvorostovsky in our hearts and minds forever.May you rest in eternal love and peace dearest Maestro❤

Complimenti 🌹
👏👏👏
Благодарю Вас Дмитрий Александрович Вы навсегда в наших сердцах ❤❤❤
Помню, в книге Г.Вишневской, ее первый педагог говорила, пой пока итальянцев, для русской оперы голос твой еще не готов и техники пока нет достаточной.
У каждого свой путь.
Спасибо за ВСЁ Дмитрию Хворостовскому!
No question this is a man singing. Fabulous
Dmitri, rest in paradise.

Such loss to the World
Bless him.
Талант, красавец, невосполнимая утрата для мира искусства...
That crescendo at the beginning, and decrescendo at the end is everything! RIP, dear Dima.
He had it all. Good looks, charm, and a heaven sent voice. RIP.
His voice was so special..what a great loss to the music world.
No loss, we have records!

Dmitriju Hvorostovskom je Bog darovao lijep glas, kojega je školovanjem usavršio do vrhunca. On je jedan iz niza izvrsnih Ruskih basova i baritona. Šteta da je mlad otišao zauvijek u vječnost.
The best voice i ever heard in my life he was a maestro fantastic rip Dmitri
Димочка,солнышко ,я помню ,как в 1989 про тебя писали газеты,что ты лучший баритон мира.Покойся с Миром.😢
A genius in his field. A master class performance. No one compares. His technique, passion and stage presence par excellence!! What a loss to lose him at such an early age. 😊
Impossibly beautiful in a way that causes the heart to weep and the spirit to rend.
His young voice was so beautiful; his voice matured wonderfully, but it was especially touching here.
He was a beautiful young man, a handsome silver fox--and always a grand vocalist and good actor.

No se debería haber muerto nunca.
Bůh ho miloval... ♥️♥️♥️
I remember watching this on tv the first note made me cry knew he would win Cardiff singer
My husband hates opera so it wasn’t him who was crying
@@trevorfranklin remind me why you married him 😂 I don’t understand how anyone could hate such a splendid medium as opera
I didn’t discover my love of opera till in my 30’s

Absolutely gorgeous
We are all blessed to be contemporenous with him, to admire his extratordinary voice and to deserve the grace of his presence. May God bless him wherever he is now.
Светлая память. Великий был певец!
La bellezza nel canto nell interpretazione e nell anima di questo grandissimo artista rimarranno sempre vive quando lo sentiremo e lo vedremo maestoso e sublime come in questa interpretazione meravigliosa..grazie maestro che con il tuo talento e la tua arte sai regalarci sempre emozioni profonde ..
Was für eine wunderschöne Stimme, Gänsehaut pur!!
He had a really beautiful voice. How sad he left us so soon !.
That winning smile😋
The World is a poorer place without him! Perfect voice, beautiful man! Here’s a translation of Xerxes I praising the shade of a Plane tree, in Handel’s opera Serse:
Tender and beautiful fronds
of my beloved plane tree,
let Fate smile upon you.
May thunder, lightning, and storms
never disturb your dear peace,
nor may you by blowing winds be profaned.
Never was a shade
of any plant
dearer and more lovely,
or more sweet.
So sad he is gone. His voice was magical. R.I.P
His voice feels like touching velvet.
Such a tragedy to lose such a f
Great artist so early. RIP, Maestro.
Why, he was just a kid.
Bravo, Dmitri.
Rest in paradise

So hard to believe he's gone. Saw him many timea at RoH.

A thing of utter beauty. Dmitri, this moment. Thank you. X
Tragic loss. He was marvelous
The singer and the musicians who played this piece, are on another level
It was a true wonder. So sad left so early. Rest in piece
Who could forget it? Utterly magnificent. That was such a memorable contest, with a younger Bryn Terfel too.
Do the good die young.? A loss indeed for us in this world. What a beautiful voice n strong presence.
