quando si unisce la bellezza di canto con la tecnica ! ecco un esempio ,da questo grande interprete! fuoriclasse...

[@PBXVIILY]

BIG MAC was the greatest Baritone I ever heard. Beyond the great huge sound was an incredible sensitivity, musical integrity and depth of emotion that no one could equal, I saw him when he was 60 he was so beyond amazing. R.I.P BIG MAC you were larger than life and still amaze me.

[@barakderfarber]

Well said!!! But are you a parent of him?

[@PBXVIILY]

The Big MAC was the best, My Dad saw him in the beginning of his career, I saw him at the end he was incredibly great! Always my favorite!!!

[@susankeuter968]

Did you mean "was he my parent?" Yes big Mac is my father .RIP.

[@ippolitos22]

too slow

[@user-py1jg6bb2r]

slower, not too slow at all, there are ton of those who rush and shouting...

[@Dadacomero]

God....what a WOBBLE :/

It's not a wobble, his vibrato function is normal, albeit slower than the optimal. Wobble is when the voice is not pulsating but rather "slaloming" imprecisely, covering usually at least a whole tone. It's a big difference. Netrebko has a wobble, it's obvious that her vibrato is warping erratically. Here you can clearly hear pulsations.

@ well stated, thank you.

[@user-py1jg6bb2r]

God, what a grand baritone! Deep rounded warm voice, real baritone in deed! Bravo,

[@user-py1jg6bb2r]

@ She has it stronger than before, but it seems operatic house close ears, only open their eyes widely...

[@craigsmith2460]

McNeil was one of THE great baritones of his( or any) age.
