    @ajhiflyer There is a vibrato, although he keeps it under control. It would be impossible to have power without vibrato; however, it is necessary to keep it controlled, what Keenlyside does perfectly.

    How good to hear a singer who has no need for vibrato to get their point across. Bravo.

    It’s so nice to hear decent French at the Met… a rarity , esp in the “old” days. The stud who gives him the wine is damn hot too…..:)

    Whoever thought of inserting the word ENCHANTERESSE into a baritone aria was a total genius…

    @kulturistimarsch That’s a bit harsh, don’t you think? He has a voice, just not for this role and most certainly not in this house. Let’s face it, 40 years ago this man would have been, at the most, a barely adequate Schaunard for the NYC Opera. On the other hand, if Thomas Hampson can sing the title role in BOCCANEGRA at the MET (and get applause, no less!!!) then who can you say no to??

    @JohnFalocco it is on metplayer,see Metropolitan opera web, Metplayer is paid, you have to subscribe.
    i think there is no dvd from the met production, but there is an older dvd with keenlyside and dessay.

    Nice video, do you have this production on DVD? Or was it released in DVD? Don’t you know?
    By the way, who is the guy at 0:29?

    @matthieusarah according to what both casts say it is the same guy (Matthew Plenk is Arturo and Matthew Plenk is Marcellus)

    At 2:50, the guy standing behind Kennlyside (curly dark hair and brown jacket), is he the one who played Arturo in Lucia at the Met with Dessay on March 2011?

    His acting is like no other`s. Intense, melancholic, thoughtful… a real Hamlet. And his voice is SO beautiful. (just as much as him)

    @eurydike No, I actually don’t live in New York but rather in Montreal; I’ll probably see the Don Carlo on the Live HD broadcast. I wouldn’t want to miss our Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducting.

    Did you see it or see the reviews?
