Thomas in fantastic form 1n1977 and still at age 79. His unique voice, full of resonance and beauty is instantly recognisable. One of the greatest singers of all time so far. Along with others like John Shirley Quirke we will celebrate you forever

It's Ford's aria "È sogno? O realtà?" from Verdi's Falstaff. Sir Tom has sung Ford a couple of times during his career.

"Devastating" is right. I can't think of any other operatic - or other - musical number that grabs me like this does: Right by the guts. Yes, there are other operatic About-To-Die numbers, but they're somehow glamorised and glossy....... Whereas this is raw pathos, in the proper sense of the word. Superb composition, superbly performed!

Sir Thomas has played this role many times. I was intrigued to hear him ask for a physical description of the Countess and then from the description call her "substantial". Still, he's a gorgeous man with a commanding voice.

He didn't fly in from LA specifically to save the show, it was a coincidence that they called him up to see if he could sing Almaviva and he had arrived in London not long ago.
