What a wonderful opera artists this small country (Bulgaria) has- some of the greatest ever.. Christoff, Ghiaurov, Gjusselew.. Kassarova, Tomova-Sintow, Dimitrova, Kabaiwanska..
I hope to visit it one day and hear some beautiful voices like these they have given to the world..
Also Raffaele Arie, Nikola Nikolov, Todor Mazaroff, Dimiter Uzunov
The best basso in the world up-to-now! What kind of voice - divine heavenly!
68 and STILL doing it on a higher level than most of us will ever reach in our prime... bravo, Mr. Christoff, bravo! What an expressive, wonderful performance!
This is a jewel.
For me, this is one of the most beautiful performances ever. I've seen a lot of really good singers singing this aria live or recorded.
Yes he wasn't a young man when this was recorded. His voice wasn't exactly that good anymore.
But his FEELING and UNDERSTANDING of his role is phantastic !
This is by far my most favourite performance of this great aria.
I love it so much !
Bravisimo!!!, what a voice, great sound and so ellegant emision.He is one of the best ever for me!!!,Bravo!!!
Proud he is Bulgarian! The best in XX century! Strongly beleive - the best in XXI century too!
the greatest bass of the all time
Uno dei più grandi interpreti di tutti i tempi!!!Un'arte innata per far capire all'ascoltatore le proprie emozioni e quelle dell'autore...Grande... Immenso.Saluti
Il grandissimo basso in un'aria del Don Carlo.
great performance!
Just listen to the nuances of the voices, how he conveys the words!!!
Unrivalled
няма такова пеене. и аз нямам епитети. поклон, маестро
Für mich die größte Basstimme aller Zeiten. Man sollte ihn hören wo er auf der Höhe seines Schaffens war! Dennoch großartig!
I have heard recordingso of Pinza, Siepi, Ghiaurov, Van Dam, Ramey, Cheek, Pape, EARLIER Christoff--I even went up in the library in college to find an old recording of Chaliapin--and I've concluded this performance is the BEST.
He´s one of the great basses of all times! His rounded voice reminds me George London´s, another magnificent singer too.
I am proud he is Bulgarian. R.I.P Boris...
According to the information I have, this must be a recording from a concert on 10.05.1982. Boris was then almost 68 years old and had been on the concert and opera stage for well over than 30 years.
Boris is truly a musical phenomenon of incredible calibre.
Great voice. Great singer. Great actor.
A trully great artist.
Meraviglia,fantastico un basso profondo autentico e in età avanzata. ❤
Amazing beautiful voice and perform. The best is to me.
Boris Hristov is a true legend!
The best Don Carlos I've ever heard. I'm born in Bulgaria and I'm sorry that Boris Christov could not be known to the world public like was Pavaroti.
Ho avuto l'onore di sentire uno dei suoi ultimi concerti ad Amsterdam 1981-82. Ho avuto la sensazione di sentire Beniamino Gigli, per lamorbidezza assoluta della voce bellissima ed elegantissima. Senso teatrale incredibile con un estro formidabile. é uno dei grandi maestri del passato. Dio lo abbia in grazia
grandioso....con quanta forza, quanta anima e quanta voce!❤❤❤
Right. Yet a great voice, and a truly great singer.
What a voice, what a personality!
immense !!! what a voice!!! immortal boris !!!!!
voce meravigliosa, è un piacere immenso ascoltarlo !
Che meraviglia!!!!!!grazie!!!
Прекрасный певец и бас!!
Tutta la nobiltà che la Lirica attribuisce al Basso, ha avuto veramente in Boris Christoff uno dei massimi rappresentanti! Che profondità di voce! Che chiarezza! Insuperabile re!
Forse il più grande basso del suo tempo.
Grandioso. Never sang at the Met. Unbelievable.
¡Grandioso!
unico!!!
OMG. He is past his proie here but what an incredible artist. A lion! One of the truly great singers.
Велик и любим певец и Човек - Борис Христов ! Нека Душата му почива и светлина ! Поклон !
No words about this ! Great composer, great song and great artist. I love it !
I've never heard him sing with a Bulgarian accent!?! His Italian is perfect...he lived there for 40 years!?!
OMG! i finally found this song! so beautiful! i heard this from Lust Caution's trailer! and fell in love with this song!
Great Bulgarian voice - Bravo !!!
Just like Carlo Bergonzi's performances from the 1980's and 1990's, this isn't "the prime of his career," BUT the outstanding artistry and feeling (AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE VOICE) are still there. Good to see this performance: thanks for posting it!!!
Това изпълнение ти разбива и сърцето, и душата!!!
Mai sentito cosi! BRAVO! Cosi si interpreta!
I also speak Italian, and Russian too, which is close to Bulgarian, and have lived in both countries, and he certainly does have an accent - slavic consonants and vowels, especially the "l" and "oh" vowel. But I also agree that this only increases the emotive power of his performance, the text of which is perfectly clear.
fabuleux !
Es un gran Bajo en todo su registro. Excelente
Impressing impressing very impressing.
Maybe not in his prime, but, Oh my! What a voice!
No bass can match this one!
Ele cantava com todo o seu ser diferenciado❤
che voce!!! da brivido
How impressing !!! The great Christoff at the age of 66 years at least ( or more if you wrote that this was recorded in the 80´s ) ... with an amazing interpretation and - what a preserved voice !! This is a jewel.. thanks for posting this !!!
Борис Христов 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻браво !!! Очень хорошо ❤️❤️❤️
Най - великия певец на всички времена....поклон!
Bravissimo
Ho avuto la fortuna di ascoltare Christoff dal vivo, in tardissima età, e vi posso assicurare che non c'era nulla di nasale ! Ricordo solo una potenza ed una morbidezza straordinari, ed un colore di un fascino unico.
Schick !!!
I heard this in the trailer for Lust, Caution. It's really cool to hear the entire piece here.
Eccezionale ...
I was presented alive this man talked to us..,. god save us he knows something, he is talking to god
Amazing performance at any age, especially so for a man in his late 60s.
To hear this! What a wonderful thought, but you never know. I have no words to express my gratitude for this interpretation. Thank you for posting it!
Que gran bajo era este hombre...un fraseo elegante pero lleno de intensidad...me encantaria escuchar un Filippo asi del vivo...
He is some singer, I tell you! I love this aria, I love his performance, his voice. It is exquisite, for any age.
Cello 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Вечное браво Борису Христову!
. . . da brivido !!! Dopo di Lui il nulla assoluto.
Dopo di lui Ghyaurov!
It’s all about highest technical achievement which is called “Bel Canto”
He is not well here at his age but he is trying to stick with his technique.
What an artist he was!
Christoff interpreta il personaggio, sente e fa sentire il dolore della sua condizione di padre tradito. Siepi è stilisticamente bravissimo, ma sembra cantare senza interpretare il personaggio, cioè senza dolente partecipazione. Come se cantasse a freddo.
Che brivido ... un'emozione senza pari !!!!
MARAVILLOSA VOZ
Браво браво браво !!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
...incredibile voce!!!!
ma come si fa a cantare cosi a 66 anni suonati? un mito intramontabile....grazie Cristoff
She never loved me!
No, her heart is closed to me,
she doesn't love me!
I still recall
how sad she looked
when she saw my white hair
the day she arrived from France.
No, she does not love me
He is one big reason to be a better man. I want meet him in heaven.
It isn't a criticism of him, he is my favourite singer and even at this age he is better than every other bass I've heard. I am just comparing him to his recordings which I know and love very well indeed.
STUPENDO!!!!!!!!!!!!
simplemente... wao!
simply beautiful. Thanks for posting this!
💕
I was a bit meh at the beginning, but when I watched it to the end I changed my mind.
NERI-CHRISTOFF los dos unicos INHUMANOS QUE VIO este planeta.
Гениальный Дядька!💖
Вначале- родились головные резонаторы, топор дровосека, а потом - Он.
Гений!❤
sure there is difference. Every singer has his own unique technique. Besides the different teachers who have their own way of teaching their students.
I heart basses
The Tortured King--what a voice!
je ne suis pas d'accord = la voix unique a conserve toutes ses qualites et l'interpretation est sublime !!!
Merci Boris Christoff !!! Vous appartenez au Pantheon des Artistes Lyriques por l'eternite
Questo è recitar cantando: Callas, Petrella, Olivero, Gencer, Christoff, Muzio per me i più grandi sotto questo versante. È il canto espressivo. Non parlo di voce bella ma di recitazione sul canto
"Лебедовата песен" на най-великия бас в световното оперно изкуство.
I wonder if nowadays there is the way or technique or something to learn singing like that.
I agree.
1:00 that's exactly how a crying man would sound.
Ramey, Furlanetto are alive and also have beautiful bass voices. Furlanetto is Italian, and it is something I hear and value (like I did for Cesare Siepi)
I note that Siepi and Furlanetto do not do dieresis on "Escurial", while Bulgarians do.
It seems to me that Italians tend to vary colors a bit more (chiaro-oscuro), than other basses who remain slightly darker on all voyels.
Ecoutez ici l'enregistrement du meme air interprete toujours par B.Christoff et presente avec des tableaux de Rembrandt. C'est un enregistrement en studio et c'est encore mieux.Peut-etre c'est le meilleur.
I can't understand the ferocious insults. I wrote this comment more than a year ago. I don't agree with my year-ago-self. Boris Christoff was nasally in his later years but I've learnt to appreciate his voice. It took a while. I believe you're the one who should get a life, randomly insulting youtube users because of their humble opinion.
Too bad Verdi never got to see this.
Yes?
People are always applying superlatives to individual artists here. I would be happy if we had any one of those great basses today, Pinza, Kipnis, Reizen, Siepi or Christoff they were all great artists. Luckily I suppose we don't have records of Leblanche ... otherwise someone would be saying "But Leblanche..."
i think that the maestro is Lothar Zagrosek. can anyone confirm this? thanks
@emmatoth watch videos of Hayk Deinyan, an Opera Singer from armenia. I think this comes close to Mr. Christoff, only is Hayk Deinyan not as famous as him. But I think he is absolutley stunning and very unique. :) ;)
