Adoro Michael Spyres: la sua voce, il suo immenso talento, la versatilità, lo humor e la sua signorilità. 😍

[@rodrigovasquez5087]

Amazing, great management of Passagio, and voce di testa in high notes, very gentile and dark at the same time. And the coloratura, no idea how he is doing that. Juan diego flores with Hormones 🙂

[@viorelbadiceanu5982]

This is a spectacular performance of a BARITENOR voice. This kind of voices are very, very rare (I'm talking about the AUTHENTIC ones, born and not made); the same about Falcon voices. Great singer, great artist! ... Thank you for sharing!

[@robert111k]

This is not a baritenor, but a contraltino + basso cantante.

[@jenspflug7473]

Not made? Have you read his statements where he speaks about the long time (years) he spent to develop his tenor voice as he considered himself a baritone?

[@edraith]

@@robert111k a contraltino has passaggi on F4 and Bb4 and has almost no resonance below F3. Spyres, live, has a very resonant and easy Low A2 just like the one you'd expect from either a low baritone or a bass-baritone or a basso cantante. Also a Contraltino would be the one singing the Primo Tenore Rossiniano/Donizettiano/Belliniano roles, the one written for Tenore Contraltino/Haute-contre, while Spyres has more of a "Tenore di mezzo carattere" voice, which is the Secondo Tenore or Baritenore singing G2 to D5 in Rossini, for example. So, yeah, we can call him a Baritenore meaning the Secondo Tenore/Tenore di Mezzo Carattere in Rossini: it's still a Lirico-leggero kind of voice but it's more of a baritono leggero with very wide vocal range and tessitura than any other thing.

[@robert111k]

@@edraith, no. I know what a _contraltino_ is, what a _basso cantante_ is and those others in between. Mature Domingo and Kaufmann could be regarded as a sort of _baritenori._ Spyres has higher and lower notes than those and his vocal timbre adapts to what is needed according to the role. So I stick to what I said: Spyres is a contraltino + basso cantante.

[@edraith]

@@robert111k I do not concur at all. I personally like the baritenore definition as the modern evolution of what was originally called a Tenore di mezzo carattere, a kind of lower tenore lirico-leggero with a range G2 to D5. Domingo was a kind of very high baritone voice, never had a very secure technique but was a marvelous musician and actor. Kaufman was a great Mozartian Tenor back in the days, nowadays he should just stop singing, he's still a lowish sort of Tenor with a Legg(i)ero voice and the fact he tries to sell himself as a Tenore Drammatico is just a fraud. What you're calling a Baritenore I'd rather call a "Tenore baritonale" anyway.

[@clefnoteproductions6695]

These must be highlights from a much longer concert

[@likeariver2237]

He's phenomenal. Precise clear everything is in order. I prefer baritone only because that's what I am. So it's up to one's ear preference. He's wonderful.

[@simonchausse11]

He sounds like a real baritone in La ci darem more than Domingo has ever sounded in these last 10 years of singing the baritone repertoire. Spyres is a real genius!

[@Aneldarx]

A saw a video where Spyres sings bass-baritone aria and sounds like real bass baritone. And then I read an article where he said that baritone is his natural voice but he had learned to sing a tenor because of more career opportunities. Phenomenon!

[@rugby8-Philadelphia]

Yeah........shhhhhhhhh

[@brendant19]

@@Aneldarx That's incorrect. He said "I was doing that faux-baritone sound that young singers do,". One cannot decide to sing tenor if their voice is not in the tenor range. It's not a choice you make.

[@Aneldarx]

@@brendant19 If you listened to his baritone singing you could hear that that is true baritone, not false one. You can hear it even in this concert when he is singing Don Giovanni duet.

[@brendant19]

@@Aneldarx I have heard that yes. I've also heard a decades worth of tenor repertoire sung at a high level. Unsurprisingly, I'll give the latter more weight. It's also impossible to just decide you're a tenor if your vocal chords aren't capable of singing in that range other than in falsetto. He's not singing in falsetto, ergo, hes a tenor. You don't have to like his sound or technique, but he is still a tenor.

[@jaroslavsojka8266]

Wow!!!

[@Winnepausakee]

He continues to "develop" if that is the correct term. Earlier videos suggested a voice less "rounded" and I submit a bit more shrill even though with a wonderful virtuosity. I think I have a slight preference for Bruce Ford in his prime (and much unknown....odd phrase, I know) in the US, but what a concert the two of them together would have been. As to the "baritono" voice.....I should think it easier ( none of it easy) to develop higher range from a "natural" lower fach then to go the other way. Musculature and supporting tendons and ligaments I'm thinking are more "open" to being stretched ie their under-use given fuller use, then a common usage "thickened" ie shortened. I have no research to back this up, just guessing form the way say calve muscles are incredibly hard to build in adulthood as they are already used so much in just walking about....but it even harder to make them smaller if that's how they've naturally developed ( thinking of a high school classmate who was nicknamed "Bellino" because of the size of her calves....all muscle and nothing to be done about it). Anyway, in any case, Spyres has put lots of work into development of the vocal structure he part was born with and part developed through lots of practice....and aren't we all fortunate....

[@gratienpoppe820]

Wat een reikwijdte heeft die stem. Bovendien zingt hij alles met een vanzelfsprekend gemak en is zijn volume zowel hoog als laag groot. Verbluffend. Wie doet hem dat na? Een unieke zanger van wie we hier te weinig horen. Hij kan bovendien zijn timbre aanpassen aan het stemtype dat hij vertolkt.

[@HyakuhachiPoundHou]

On a retrouvé d'Artagnan !!!!

[@sbseg]

Spyres sagt in einem Interview: JEDE Stimme hat potentiell bis zu 3 Oktaven Umfang. ( womit nicht gemeint ist, dass man unbedingt versuchen sollte das auszureizen. ) Der Bass bei Bach reicht nur bis zum e' in der Höhe; das hat seinen guten Grund. Jeder Bariton oder Bass weiss, wie man in der Tiefe kämpfen muss um den Bereich unter dem c. Damit ist gemeint, dass diese Töne voll entwickelt werden im Hinblick darauf, dass sie zum flexiblen Träger von Musik und Ausdruck werden können. Bei aller Meisterschaft : mir fehlt etwas an dem Gesang von Spyres. Wenn er in EINEM, gleich welchem, Fach mehr in die Tiefe gehen würde, wäre das ( für mich ) wünschenswert, denn es gibt nicht einen einzigen Sänger derzeit, der so genau und kenntnisreich, in Praxis UND Theorie Auskunft über Stimme und Gesang Zeugnis ablegt. - Er ist historisch gesehen ein absoluter Glücksfall, wenn man sich den ganzen Mist anhört der allein technisch gesehen von der Mehrzahl der anderen geboten ist.

Amazing performance!! Is he wearing spats? I think I would have gone with black suit and shoes. But then I see many in the orchestra are wearing blue or navy blue. Guess he wanted to fit in.

How does he go from being this incredibly high lyric tenor to being a verdi baritone??????????????

[@vitabella6481]

He is baritone, a long voice. Mastering the falsetto part of the voice, which every man has from nature. I have two good friends both very successful opera singers, bariton and tenor, both have the low notes of abaritone and are able to sing high c s of a soprano that nobody believes his ears. Louder than every woman. But they dont use ther upper register. They started their careers in a time where you did have to decide what you are. Today we have more freedom, but of course, Spyres is incredible versatile.

[@alexeyre674]

He us a llyric tenor, With a good technique and With wide voice range. Of course, He sounds like tenor in bariton range

[@vitabella6481]

@@alexeyre674 no he sounds like a baritone when he sings bariton roles!

[@alexeyre674]

You can lissen Giacomini, He is a real tenor, but sound like a baritone. Giacomini one of the Best dramatic tenor. The idea to sing With two voices has a commercial goal. If you will visit an opera, When Spyers sing bariton roles, you will find, that you Cant hear him. He is a microfone perfomer of opera.

Same techniqeu as Maestro Araiza, and the timber is very similar, almost same overtones, and falsetto, Maestro has a more stable and richer but very very close and beautiful!!! When he is on the Tenor voice! Super voice and energy!

[@vitabella6481]

No, Araiza had a unique timbre, not at all similar to Spyres. Or most tenors have the same timbre. But Araizas vouce was very tiny! I heard him many times live! Spyres voice is an other class, much bigger and not nasal, as Araizas was.

[@sergiooliman5221]
