I have the privilege some 25 years ago of being in a chorus singing with Soloist like the Great Simon Estes and Great Teresa Berganza. What a charming personalities and voices. Never forget we gave them a big applause in the first rehersal and Teresa Sent us chocolates. I will never forget them.

I first heard Estes during the late 1970s. A truly beautiful and wide-ranging bass-baritone. Subsequent reviews suggested that Estes' voice, ample at Bayreuth and in other European theaters, did not carry well at the Met.

I'd like to have heard him as the two devils, in Gounod's "Faust" and Boito's "Mefistofele." Estes' voice overall was a good match for both roles. Although, again, he was perhaps not an ideal singer for the Met.
@highcastle15 жыл бұрын
Wow, is this "old school" or what? I realize that Andre was popular back in the 1950's and 1960's, mostly in France. But this performance of The Trumpet Shall Sound represents an approach that has been abandoned at least for the last generation. For a much more exciting and contemporary rendition, take a look at (for example) the Philippe Sly version on KZbin (kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2SnoaCNhbtsf7c).
@baselogic95 жыл бұрын
its not a question of old school...its a question of the instrument you play....in this case Maurice is using a piccolo trumpet and on the video you post, the trumpet player is using a baroque trumpet...so the approach is completely different...this TV show was broadcast in live in October 1988!!!...back then, baroque trumpet players was not in the business like they are now...but the most important is that both of them are looking for the beauty...and this is matter who can say he is wrong or right?!!!...its a question of tone color and taste

Estes is a fine singer. His voice is warm, wide-ranging and beautiful, and he is a sensitive artist as well. I have never heard him in person. But several accounts suggest his voice, although ample for smaller European houses, sounded a tad small at the Met. I hope that racism is not the reason behind the Met's failure to fully engage Kevin Maynor, who certainly has one of the great bass voices. Estes is good, major-league, but not great.

Estes' voice was beautiful and wide-ranging. But although he had considerable success in Europe, his instrument by most accounts was a tad undersized for the Met. And he should not have sung pure bass roles, in which he tended to pour on the weight and therefore get wobbly. Nor was his voice's timbre suited to such roles.
