[@olofholm8612]

Fisichella is a master of style. He is a master of singing technique, the best role model for all tenors. Listen to the clarity of tone, how perectly he disposes of volume, how he handles the melody, the frases and the text. Bravo mestro!

[@rodolfovitale5224]

SUBLIME

[@morganchan2465]

Perfect High D

[@SilfredoSerrano]

He doesn't have a tempo issue. The tenor has to maintain a high tessitura after an entire evening of high singing and he is trying to push the conductor to move it. The conductor, naturally, is resistant or just doesn't care.

[@morganchan2465]

Indeed, if it is too slow, any human would out of breath. Singers are not a piece of wood

[@jingren]

THANK YOU! I wonder how many people know this aria is very far into the opera, and singers are challenged to maintain their tessitura and energy... Nothing wrong with wanting to speed it up a little

[@user-py1jg6bb2r]

yes, the entire evening, almost the last minute, after that many high c.

[@diegothebrave2008]

Very true, this aria is for the tenor's tempo. Is a pity the conductor couldn't compromise.

[@RaphaClassic]

You are still very generous to this conductor... imagine how great this performance would be if that ***###*** of a conductor was not so stubborn.

[@gloriaghionzoli66]

[@operasingersstorehouse5311]

Per quelli che si lamentano del tempo: è ovvio che dopo un’opera tanto onerosa come I puritani, Fisichella stia cercando di far capire al direttore d’orchestra che deve velocizzare i tempi per sostenerlo. Ricordiamoci che lo strumento della voce umana è l’unico che si stanca davvero durante una performance. I suonatori di fiati, archi etc., se sono stanchi, al massimo si possono fermare qua e là o suonare piano; se la voce non ce la fa più (o meglio, il fisico) bisogna trovare qualche escamotage. Anche perché non si tratta di musica sinfonica, ma di opera, dove tutti gli strumenti, compresa la voce, collaborano, ma a essa è riservata una posizione di privilegio. Quindi se il cantante non canta non si fa all’opera. E se il cantante ha bisogno in quel momento di un tempo leggermente più veloce, lo fa capire al direttore e il direttore deve seguirlo.il problema non è Fisichella, ma il direttore che non vuole capire.

[@carlolosito2850]

Penso che l’opera si faccia grazie al contributo di tutti.

[@tenorschofield]

Szkoda, że nie zdobył takiej sławy jak Pavarotti, Domingo, Careras

[@Bassonobile]

You should add that the bass Giorgio, was sung by Dimitri Kavrakos the famous greek bass! It is a rather important part in Puritani, don't you think?

[@pseudotonal]

That was only a Db, not the F as written in the score.

[@alfredbernasek861]

DREI DER SCHÖNSTEN STIMMEN DER OPER

[@Agorante]

Fisichella is too short. That's my theory. If he had been a little taller Sutherland would have chosen him as her "tall tenor" instead of Pavarotti. He would have made a big spash at the Met and his press agent would have dubbed him the "King of the High Cs".

[@ponyperez1585]

Patrick Boyle I think the real problem was his tempo issue.

[@brunoantony3218]

Patrick Boyle even if he were 7 feet tall he’d still lack the charisma, stage presence and especially the beauty of voice that Luciano Pavarotti had.

[@brunopicaude3092]

Le ténor et le chef ne sont pas d'accord sur le tempo...

[@mirjamdevries9376]

È bravissimo, il colore della voce è chiaro e terso, ma preferisco la versione con il FA sovracuto.

[@Aniblasfemus]

Non capisco, non sono un esperto. Quella nota che fa a 5:57 non è il famoso FA sovracuto? Inoltre, ne approfitto per fare un altra domanda, mi ha sorpreso a 5:43 dove la melodia mi sembra diversa da quella di altre esecuzioni che ho sentito in passato, forse il cantante si è preso qualche libertà?

[@mirjamdevries9376]

@@Aniblasfemus Anche io non sono un'esperta ma direi che si tratta di un Do sovracuto. Il Fa è una nota in falsetto che ad alcuni direttori d'orchestra non piace molto ed allora la sostituiscono con il Do acuto, nonostante sia presente nello spartito. Se le interessa c'è l'intera opera su youtube, basta digitare I Puritani bellini youtube 1985 opera completa. Saluti!

[@felipeperez9369]

Bro he is not made of wood, try singing a whole opera with crazy high notes with slow tempo.

[@pekkak.2724]

He's not singing like it has been written.. strange accelerations etc. Very hard to follow for everyone... but nevertheless great voice and voice technically. It's hard for everyone else singer to follow him, he's makin some tenoral things....

[@user-xm8ux8wb7v]

Gran voce del tenore Fisichella, però salta il fa sovracuto. So che è una nota quasi impossibile, a meno di emettere un falsetto, ma qualche tenore canta il fa, correttamente come è scritto

[@colino72]

I haven't seen or heard much of this guy, but on the clips I have seen he is seriously challenged on timing. He is often ahead of the beat here. And the portamento is often unpleasant. His high notes are a thing to behold for sure, and it seems to be pretty big sound, albeit with an overly fast vibrato

[@absdyna]

His vibrato is not actually overly fast, but it is faster than that of the Puccini tenors and Verdi tenors. He has a quite nice vibrato in fact, if you don't set prior expectations on it. And yes, his timing problem is just about legendary! It's really funny when you have an excellent tenor like him, but he's always screwing with the time.... the pit doesn't find it too much of a problem though, they just catch up to him.....

[@builderjunkie0126]

Colin Gudgeon he’s at the end of the opera, and he’s likely pushing the conductor to go faster as he is likely tiring

[@ian.marais1202]

She's not a patch on Anna Netrebko. But of course Gruberova was the queen of scooping. Tenor under much strain not really to my liking.

[@Largo64]

I'm disappointed. He didn't go for the high F, even in head voice. I've heard Pavarotti sing it in chest voice.

[@labienus9968]

[@francescopiotto9510]

maria che stonato poverino.. non in formissima

[@tulliusagrippa5752]

Beautiful voice. But he emasculated this aria by removing the two high notes for which it is famous. Very disappointing.

[@TD05SSLegacy]

Funny on so many levels. First tempo. Shame too because tenor in good voice. Then the way the tenor ‘acts’ which is to not act or even move on his high note. Hilariously taking every ounce of his being to sing. Reminds me of a toddler in diapers stopping play for a moment of relief.

[@MMotta-mk8uq]

Grande!
