Certo che no, ma non era questo il punto che volevo sottolineare. Il mio intento era quello di “predicare” contro i luoghi comuni, come ad esempio “italiani = mafiosi”!
I’m sorry but it’s not a stage scene at all. All the sets of the opera have been recreated in Germany – in Cologne which as the most important studio in the world – where the film has been filmed. But B. Jacquot has also filmed & put in this movie the real decors so you can really see the Castel Sant’Angelo. So, Amazon is quite wrong : this is absolutly not the Covent Garden version at least not in this specific video .
A very beautiful voice. In Nessun Dorma I just heard he seems to have quite a difficulty reaching his high notes, what a pity. Here he sounds quite good, a different aria a different approach and also much younger of course. The summary on the right does not tell us about the date of this performance, it would be nice. Thank you for posting and thank you Barry.
I agree with pieritlyon . . Roberto Alagna combines all the necessary facets vocally for pulling this off masterfully . . . Let someone else do Des Grieux and Radames. Have Roberto Alagna do roles like this Mario and also Romeo in Romeo et Juliette! I especially like that heartbreak inflection. However, after 2:18, some notes flattened a little bit here and there. I wish sometimes that I weren’t cumbered with the ability to hear even the slightest bit of flattening.
Apart from the fact that he is definetly a great voice, he sings the note a1 like he speaks, no effort of all(it’s the first time I hear him by chance on youtube), since he starts to look straight in to your eyes he dosen’t blink not even once… It is like hipnotizing; really a wonderful representation!

très juste,mais Roberto Alagna est très bon aussi!
almost like another mario del manaco….
Del Monaco en faisait “trop” je préfère Alagna. Ou Domingo ou la version de Wunderlich.
Pavarotti manquait de nuance
FLETA,CARUSO.MARCONI,BONCI,MASINI,PERTILE,DEL MONACO.CORELLI,NIKOLOV,OUSUNOV,GIACCOMINI.!!!Accanto di LORO a Roberto Alagnia gli manca la …….!
