Red Army Choir - Nessun dorma (soloist: Vasily Shtefutsa)

[@andydixon99]

Thank you Jana 1889 for uploading this performance by Vasily Shtefutsa and the Red Army Choir. Apart from its being a generally splendid version of the well-know aria, we should consider Vasily's age at the time of the performance. What power, what control by someone who was reaching, or perhaps had already passed, 70 years of age! Magnificent!

[@dogfather68]

Magnificent! As one military to another, I salute him.

[@Duketributechannel]

Fantastic !! The power of the music!!

[@donaldboyer8182]

The echo takes away from the beauty of the performance. Maybe someone could run it through a filter and eliminate it then repost.

[@fctrumpet]

This man is amazing!!!!! Love it!!!!!

Bravo, Stefuta! Sa-ti traiasca ascendenta latina din sange! Pronuntie impecabila in italiana!

[@Jana1889]

@SiostraKatie I think his name is Vasily Ivanovich Shtefutsa (Василий Иванович Штефуца) and yes,he is still alive.you can see my other videos ("Ansambl Alexandrova - Ach,neni tu" he was singing in czech language in January 2010 in Bratislava,Slovakia.) im glad,you like my videos.:)

[@alexandrovci]

@InformationMinister Yes, he was born in 1936, which makes him either 70 or 71 at the time of this concert.

[@InformationMinister]

@ORLOFFPETER He was really 71 in this vid an held those notes? Well done. That is beyond amazing!

[@thanci]

Superb performance.

[@JunWisewar]

Just beautiful!! Makes me proud to be a rusky!

[@YuriyArseniev]

Ай, браво!!! Нет слов!!!

[@ROMANTICO160]

bello :-)

[@JesusLovesMe1950]

@Jana1889 BTW, to those who pooh-pooh this man's performance, I remember both Pavarotti and Domingo being booed off the stage. I think that has probably never happened to Vasily Ivanovich Shtefutsa!

[@swetoct]

Ура! Ура! У-р-р-р-а-а-а!!! Б р а в о !

[@JesusLovesMe1950]

First of all, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for uploading this aria! Do you know the tenor's name and is he still alive? This is my favorite song from the Choir's concert in Paris. What can I say? He's wonderful? That doesn't even begin to convey my feelings. He is truly singing from the heart, which gives me chills and brings tears to my eyes. He (and the rest of the Choir) could serenade me anytime and anywhere! Bravissimo!! I'd love to see more of them (minus the Leningrad Cowboys).

[@Jana1889]

@Desideria7 you are welcomed!

[@Jana1889]

@swetoct спасибо Вам за красивый комментарий:)

[@Jana1889]

it's non-professional recording. Although it is not so good, I tried to do my best.:)

[@andydixon99]

Dear Jana, You did a very good job and I thank you, as I am sure many other people do, for giving us the pleasure of this wonderful performance.

[@Jana1889]

Oh, great, you are welcome!

[@gregoriolopez4150]

Maravillosa interpretación

[@Jana1889]

@Mr19841504 you are right! try to watch also Vadim Ananiev and Valery Gavva in my videos:)))

[@sirinjorge2007]

the voice russian one of the best in the world !

[@9kabuki]

nice audience, they are really quiet

[@Jana1889]

nie je zaco..aj ja dakujem:)

[@jonesy9900]

damn that was good. oh quick question: why do their hats look too big on them? i'm just wondering.

[@wildys6]

I guess those hats are disgned that way, but who are we to question Mother Russia?

[@mlakat74]

This rocks. However the recording should have been better.

[@TommyPaso1972]

Why have got big hats the U.S.R.R. Boss?

[@Mr19841504]

nice voice for a russian,bravo

[@Jana1889]

hej..kalinka, a este par..ale velke su, maju viac ako 100mb..

[@Nizzemancer]

too much echo in the room or it's the camera that's bad, sounds awful even though I'm sure it's in no part the singers fault.

[@churchofgod4016]

Be great. If we could hear it.

[@speedygonzalez8431]

their hats are way too big---

[@thelastboyscout6555]

CCCP URSS o/

[@elkegoldberg5733]

Das sollte man als Armee Chor wirklich nicht singen! Überfordert echt ganz dolle den Tenor!!!

[@ThePianoSM]

The idea is charming, but such heavy-handed singing can't really be taken seriously.

[@andydixon99]

Oh come on! Surely you would at least concede that the tenor's performance was pretty remarkable for someone who had already passed 70 years of age.

[@andydixon99]

Why are you so patronising?

[@deennaaw.2270]

Do you have any idea how many people love this operatic music and classical music? Your comment is dull, boring, uninformed and really can't be taken seriously.

[@andydixon99]

Why is it necessary to be so patronising?

[@andydixon99]

And your comment can't really be taken seriously!
