Michael Spyres sings Latilla: Siroe, re di Persia, Act 1: "Se il mio paterno amore"

[@operafairy]

You want a vocal miracle? Michael Spyres has it. OMG, what a range, what a technique, he is god of virtuosity. No more need for a time machine. True baroque fest is here.

[@monikakramer4823]

Ja, einfach Perfektion

[@francisgarnier308]

En effet ! C'est un miracle de la nature !

[@danielrodriguez9630]

Veramente

[@mjk5807]

For the last 200 years, such a wide tessitura was not respected, but it was essential in baroque music. Mr. Spyres is delightful (Jonas Kaufmann too!❤)

[@amyschwartz2968]

This is my happy music. I listen every morning to start my day. This video is filled with such joy and I love watching his expressions as he sings.

[@phoenixgemini1837]

It's his smile before he sings. It just shows that he loves what he is doing and what he is hearing.

[@amyschwartz2968]

His smile makes me smile 😊

[@littoy]

Best tenor right now.

That bass is not from tenor, is a baritone with high notes, but not high c without falsetto.

[@sevenseems4917]

@@jincorey4118 tenor and baritone is just a terminology describing singers vocal range... Michael's voice and perfect technique covers both tenor and baritone range effortlessly. to say he is a tenor or a baritone, is incorrect, because he is both.

[@Docteur_Faust]

​@@sevenseems4917 there are physical differences between tenor and baritones espacially regarding the vocal folds lenght and thickness. But technicals adaptations can overpass these differences and lead a baritone to sing like a tenor and a tenor to sing like a baritone. At the end a specialist can hear the diffenrences between a true tenor and a baritone singing high. However there are no doubt about the fact that Spyres Singing is absolutly amazing.

[@suhailadevi7649]

My goodness what a performance! Michael Spyres is a true godsend, what a blessing to humanity and the world of music.

[@monumentofwonders]

We never hear this repertoire because nobody can sing it. Now we can hear it, because singers like Micheal Spyres and Jeanine Bisque can sing it. It's seems incredible that anyone could do this. The orchestra is also great.

[@paulpadillo4591]

Absolute insanity. Glorious, full-throated baroque madness of the highest order. Thank you, Michael. This has made my day!

[@monikakramer4823]

Das kann ich nur bestätigen.

This is so good that your microphones wants to dance to it!

Dear sir . This is a fan of your master performances. I am 76 and I never heard anything like your roles. ¡congratulations! Take care yourself and continuate with your brillant career.

[@jaimesagaseta1673]

Indeed, he's a really vocal miracle, even if sometimes one can agree or disagree with what he sometimes does. He is absolutely unique. Such a real coloratura di bravura is only for him. There's no tenor on planet earth capable of singing this crazy impossible aria, no other tenor on planet earth nowadays.

[@JackieLanceTenor]

Spyres really is a vocal miracle. It seems there is nothing he can't do. In a hundred years people will speak of the legend that I know this man will become in the operatic canon.

[@alessandrofinozzi8265]

superbo controllo del disegno musicale e della lingua italiana. Fantastico

[@Giovis968]

È perfetto , dicono che sia un baritono , ma ha fatto tutto quello che fa un tenore.

[@djperry211]

Mr Spyres slips so deftly and delicately between the tenor and baritone tessituras. Warner Classic are so lucky to have him under a recording contract.

[@nelsonjoseperez-sosa8809]

s Spyres, a phenomenal voice and a great musician!

[@Adiambrozi]

this piece makes me so happy. Michael is such a gift to mankind

[@ElisaGriessmeier]

E un tuttofare è a suo agio in tutti i generi della musica classica e offre le performance più convincenti. Grazie mille per questo. Ma anche l'ensemble "il pomo d'oro" accende i fuochi d'artificio. Tutto sommato semplicemente fantastico.

I had never heard of Latilla, thank you Michael Spyres for making me discover this sublime aria and composer; but mostly, thank you for taking us with you on this lovely musical journey ♪

Saw him perform this at the Wigmore Hall yesterday and it blew my head off!!! He did it twice too- it also was an encore.🤘

[@KajiVocals]

Wow! Did you record anything by any chance? I haven't been able to find any footage from this tour.

[@seagirltoo]

Sublime! Michael Spyres has become the best of the best .

[@SteveL2012]

Gorgeous voice and singing. I have never heard a male sing in such a broad tonal and musical range so well. ❤️

[@amyschwartz2968]

I listen to this and it just makes me smile. It’s my first thing in the morning music so I start my day happy. What a magnificent voice. And I love the smiles during the recording. What a delight!!!

It really is!

[@monikakramer4823]

[@monikakramer4823]

So eine wunderbare Beherrschung dieser schwierigen Arie.

[@Fleurop68-qu5ir]

Ich habe diesen unglaublichen Tenor vor zwei Wochen live in Berlin erlebt. Unter anderem auch mit dieser Arie. Zum Schluss hat er sie (nur den A-Teil) noch einmal als Zugabe gesungen. Wirklich ein Phänomen, das beeindruckt und berührt. Nicht nur, dass er diesen großen Ambitus von dann tatsächlich 3 Oktaven live singt, es klingt auch fast immer sehr schön, schwingend, mühelos. Das Orchester (auch damals Pomo d'oro) hat auch viel Freude gamacht - eine tolle Kombination!

[@evalinnert7736]

Wie ich Sie beneide 😂

[@danielrodriguez9630]

[@simonandjessy2]

Michael Spyres brings baroque opera to life like no other! His voice, technique, and artistry are truly unmatched. He is reviving this incredible music for modern audiences! Bravo

Vraiment magnifique! Bravissimo

[@Reinemichaud]

Merci à vous tous, c'est de toute beauté.Bravo Michael Spyres, une prestation incroyable...

[@lanonyme]

Époustouflant ! Dans un air de Mazzoni il chante sur 3 octaves et une seconde F2 - - - G5. Plus je l'écoute dans maints répertoires, plus je l'apprécie. Et je ne suis pas le seul . . . .

[@SuperCapelle]

un vrai Baryténor

[@JackieLanceTenor]

This is Franco Fagioli levels of baroque showmanship. He is really the only other singer I can think of that can tackle a piece that requires such immense ability from the singer in terms of coloratura and RANGE.

[@monikakramer4823]

Ja, er als Tenor und Franco Fagioli als Counter.

[@JackieLanceTenor]

​@@monikakramer4823 sorry I think I didn't accurately get the translation of what you were saying when I responded last night. I deleted on my other comment. But yes, I think they are at the absolute top of male ability when it comes to coloratura, range, and style in baroque repertoire.

[@GoogleUser-mu2ed]

Michael's voice is extremely smooth and well-balanced with just the right amount of vibrato. Franco's vibrato is too wobbly for my taste.

[@francisgarnier308]

Je suis d'accord avec vous. Malgré ses mérites, le chant de Faggioli ne me transporte pas autant : ses excès de vibrato et le manque de netteté de ses attaques ne lui permettent pas de suggérer un chant héroïque. en revanche Spyres, y parvient au-delà de toute espérance !@@GoogleUser-mu2ed

[@esterbaiget1715]

Phenomenal voice, superb musicianship.

[@juandiazroveri548]

Magnanimo, hasta los micrófonos tiemblan cuando el canta.

[@francescopatane525]

Michael Spyres canta in italiano con una dizione incredibilmente perfetta! Straordinario interprete.

[@simonandjessy2]

Absolutely agree. Even though I’m not Italian, I can feel the purity and authenticity in his Italian diction. It’s truly remarkable how flawlessly he sings in Italian

[@rodmcavoy2892]

A voice that defies a category! A range of nearly 3 octaves--two g's below middle c up to two e's above, if my ear serves me right. So rare to hear a guy sing coloratura with accuracy and precision in the baritone register, but he does it. Got to hear more of this gentleman.

[@ramonsobrino4164]

Thank you very much. It is a pleasure to be able to listen to this work, unfairly forgotten like many others. And we are lucky that it is Michael Spyres who offers it to us. Congratulations!
