Lo mejor que he escuchado en varios años.

I so enjoy how beautiful this singing is... It has a ring, but it's NOT jammed/placed in the nose/mask, so wonderful!!! Great job sir! It's a pleasure to listen.

Bravo! A lovely, free lyric voice!

[@oddbod8655]

This has moved me to tears, so beautiful.

[@enzomusikero1282]

soooo goood!!! beautiful relaxed singing!

[@thierryrussodelattre]

Vous feriez un Lenski magnifique ! Et tout le répertoire romantique français et italien vous irait à merveille car vous êtes un véritable ténor lyrique et non spinto, avec un potentiel de tenore di grazia comme le grand ténor Russe Bogdan Volkov. Attention toutefois à ne pas chanter un répertoire trop lourd trop tôt, vous y laisseriez votre voix. Ce serait vraiment dommage.

Je l'ai écouté en tant que Lenski il y a quelques jours à l'opéra du Capitole! C'était sublime, vous aviez parfaitement raison.

[@thierryrussodelattre]

@@g.mechin9073 J'en étais sûr ! Il a la voix, la technique, l'âme artistique et le timbre adaptés à ce type de répertoire romantique. Ce devait être effectivement sublime. Un ténor à suivre assurément.

Riqueza de "en vivo"

Incredible as always... Bror Magnus, I would like to know if its posible who is your teacher and which technique you use? I would love to learn that way. THANKS!

[@brormagnustdenes2757]

Hello Carlos, My teachers are the historic recordings of the great tenors like Caruso, Gigli, Völker, Althouse, Widdop and many more. And a study of the nature of sound and physiology is also very helpful, as long as it is accompanied by a good dose of brutal honesty with yourself. Always record yourself and try to do better next time. But to really understand what better means, you need to know the standard by which we judge something to be good or bad - i.e the old recordings. I would recommend the books of Garcia, Herbert-Caesari and Oscar Saenger. And in the end its not about who you teacher is, but your own attitude and ability to be objective with your own voice. I know I am far from perfect, but I always strive to be better. Hope this helps! All the best, Bror Magnus

@@brormagnustdenes2757 Thank you so much for the answer! So have you learnt through the imitation and with self-criticism, haven't you? I follow the Michael Trimble teachings.I dont know if you know him(a really great tenor in the 80's)but he says you are one of the few people that sings correctly respecting the old rules. He insists on breathing in the lower back and lean the breath in the chest,as the real technique, but I find hard to understand what he really means. Don't you have some biomechanical process or some exercises that helps you? Thanks again Bror Magnus. Carlos
