This is great. I love opera sung by tenors and this video concentrates on those piece without me having to suffer through women opera singers.

Удивительно! Не знаю ни одного языка и это оказалось преимуществом, зато я слушаю и наслаждаюсь только замечательной музыкой. С детства ( я из СССР) слушала по радио в глубоком казахском селе, куда мы были сосланы из-за ВОВ. А комментарии " знатоков" и современных "ценителей" просто возмущают. Наслаждайтесь прекрасной и непобедимой музыкой прошлого века и не надо лишних слов ни на каком языке. Браво! Огромное спасибо создателям этого клипа! Здоровья, радости и процветания вам!!! 😂

Nice playlist! It would help if the actual singers were listed, although some I recognise.... For sure there's a bunch of Jussi Bjoerling in there....and is the other tenor Vittorio Grigolo? No Pavarotti or Bocelli, as noted in the video description....

Figaro aria Largo al Factotum is for baritone.

In: "Non più andrai", Figaro is als a baritone-role

[@user-ku5pu5ho3v]

Да, это баритон! Но это великий баритон, я думаю, ему самое место даже в списке великих теноров.

[@iwanterniwsky9441]

Please!!! No body care!

[@AKLHWO]

Misleadingly titled "Top 20 Greatest Tenor Arias", this starts with one of the best known BARITONE aria from Rossini's Barbar! No.6 is a BASS aria from Mozart's Figaro; No.15 is Bizet's DUET for tenor & baritone and NOT an aria; No 18 Verdi's Il Trovatore is for tenor but also includes soprano, another tenor & chorus; No.19 Mozart's Figaro is for BASS. These are all very well-known music - many will notice the misinformation.

[@LKemp-lr1ky]

Who cares? We hear and we like! Just wish I knew who!!!!

[@AKLHWO]

@@LKemp-lr1ky There are people who care. For example, the bass and baritone who sang the arias would care that they are not mistakened as a tenor. Also, the composer who wrote the music would care. It shows repect and appreciation for the music and artists to care.

@@iwanterniwsky9441 Are you implyig ONLY those who do not care and have no respct for knowledge are "people" ?, AND the singers who performed and the composers, and anyone who happens to know a little bit more than you are "snobs"? There are lots of "people" who care a lot more and know a lot more than me on these famous singers and composers. Most singers and composers of Classical music work extremely hard, many suffer difficult lives and financial hardship, but they persist on their art resulting in great music and performances that many "people" enjoy. I care and want to know more and would not get offended if someone told me I get certain facts wrong. May I suggest if you care enough to find out more, you will enjoy even more of these performances and enjoy more of the vast amount of Classical music.

J’aurais vraiment aimé connaître le nom de chaque interprète…. pour pouvoir lui rendre un hommage mérité ! Belle compilation 🙏🏻

[@user-hr5ow7qp2d]

Merci à vous qui avez donné le nom des interprètes. En fait, cette compilation est surtout consacrée à Vittorio Grigolo… Une petite place accordée à Björling ! Les « greatest tenors ever known » sont peu nombreux, mais ça valait la peine d’être écouté !

[@lhadzyan7300]

I guess Figaro´s aria could be easily performed by some heavy-dark Dramatic Tenors however the aria is for a Barytone with coloratura.

[@user-ku5pu5ho3v]

Ах, как замечательно, что появилась возможность услышать пение великих певцов! Жаль только, что не сообщаются имена этих выдающихся людей. А догадываться самой тоже не получается. Баритон, исполнивший каватину Фигаро, очень напоминает голос Титта Руффо. А голос исполнителя романса Неморино напомнил мне замечательного тенора Джузеппе Кампора. Остальные исполнители никого мне не напомнили. Но всё равно они пели изумительно. Я от всей души благодарю автора канала за то наслаждение, которое он мне доставил!

[@patrickvandevijver1105]

Little correction: there is a non-correct title on the aria:"Je sai si je veille". It should have to be: "Werther" instead of: "Berther".

0:00:00 If youre planning on auditioning as a tenor with Largo Al Factotum, you are automatically disqualified because if the role in that aria is anything other than your type (Figaro is a baritone, not a tenor), it defeates the purpose of preserving traditions especially for standard rep like this one

[@afill471]

21:00 Same thing for this aria, Non Piu Andrei is a bass aria, not a tenor aria *If i'm going to watch a video for tenor, the rep should also fall into place with the voice type, not the singer, I'm looking for audition rep, part of the guideline is to sing arias of which the role of that aria is written for tenor.

dammit the Pearl Fishers Duet for barytone & tenor is so amazing and there is some underlying lovely romantic undertones besides the common rivarly love for one single woman on both and yet their shared deep loyal friendship bond as well, which does the whole piece something very complex reflexing on what nowadays could be guessed as a BROMANCE thing on both!!

Donizetti: Una Furtiva Lagrima 010-55 IS the most beautiful aria ever written preform by the grate Pavarotti ...real gem off art... thank ....love it..Italian Text of 'Una Furtiva Lagrima' Una furtiva lagrima negli occhi suoi spuntò: Quelle festose giovani invidiar sembrò. Che più cercando io vo? Che più cercando io vo? M'ama! Sì, m'ama, lo vedo. Lo vedo. Un solo instante i palpiti del suo bel cor sentir! I miei sospir, confondere per poco a' suoi sospir! I palpiti, i palpiti sentir, confondere i miei coi suoi sospir... Cielo! Si può morir! Di più non chiedo, non chiedo. Ah, cielo! Si può! Si, può morir! Di più non chiedo, non chiedo. Si può morire! Si può morir d'amor. English Translation of 'Una Furtiva Lagrima' A single secret tear from her eye did spring: as if she envied all the youths that laughingly passed her by. What more searching need I do? What more searching need I do? She loves me! Yes, she loves me, I see it. I see it. For just an instant the beating of her beautiful heart I could feel! As if my sighs were hers, and her sighs were mine! The beating, the beating of her heart I could feel, to merge my sighs with hers... Heavens! Yes, I could die! I could ask for nothing more, nothing more. Oh, heavens! Yes, I could, I could die! I could ask for nothing more, nothing more. Yes, I could die! Yes, I could die of love.

[@Fonseca429]

This video starts with a barytone aria.

[@lhadzyan7300]

I guess they got confused by some Dramatic (lower-darker-heavy) Tenors singing sometimes the role - as Placido Domingo did once on his prime even before he changed his repertoire to sing barytone roles at middle-to-late 2000s when he was unable to sing anymore the same tenor roles he did before untill then - as the role is a very lightier and higher Coloratura Barytone type much closer like the lower and heaviest Tenors on the same area, so some singers could switch easily on both registers. Henceforth the Rossini´s Barbieri´s Figaro has something to do with tenors somehow. The one which has nothing to do is the older Mozart Nozze´s Figaro role arias, which actually are for an even lower-barytone leaning with its heavyness and darkness to a Lightier/Coloratura Bass or Bass-Barytone role indeed, those arias have nothing to do with tenors in all.
