wonderful! We will be hearing more from this tenor

[@wotan10950]

Outstanding! That's a pretty treacherous aria from Les Troyens to sing at a competition. I'm sure I'd die of fright before I ever reached the stage!

His top sounds a lot like Richard Leech’s!

[@ransomcoates546]

Too piercing a timbre for this tender song.

Certainly good, but not the equal of Juan Diego Florez.
