There WAS a time ... ( 8 months ago by 2ManyHighCs)

There WAS a time when Luciano would have/could have sung Arnoldo LIVE as well as ANY tenor who lived. I first heard him when he was singing with "that" voice. It was as if heaven had opened up and placed a singing angel on stage. THIS is not that voice. Very few in the past 100 years have been able to sing Radames, Calaf, Cavaradossi, AND Arnoldo. Pav was a business man. There was MUCH more money to be made singing heavier rep. which was done every night of the week as opposed to William Tell.

Personally, I would ... ( 8 months ago by 2ManyHighCs)

Personally, I would much rather hear Luciano singing the roles which he made so famous than Arnoldo. To my ear his Calaf was not-to-be-matched by anyone. His Radames gave me goosebumps. Rodolfo, Duke, Cavaradossi, on and on. You kinda have to be a vocal freak to pull off multiple Arnoldo's. Interestingly, if the role is sung with correct dynamics, I always felt the aria and cabaletta are the easiest singing of the night. Anyone out there who has sung Arnoldo who feels the same?

pav dodged this ... ( 8 months ago by operabitch77)

pav dodged this role when he had the chance to do it. la scala, covent garden and the met were ready to put millions of dollars down for a production with joan, him and sherril milnes in the title role. he decided(smart move) that he didnt want to RISK his whole career over a role that he could just record in a studio and make dollars that way. actually, breslin his manger made that desicion. not pav. he just knew how hard it was and said NO WAY!

Ah YES. . .and ... ( 8 months ago by 2ManyHighCs)

Ah YES. . .and there we have the "MAGIC" word. .. Herbert BRESLIN. Made one career and destroyed a dozen others in doing so.

Perhaps I should ... ( 8 months ago by 2ManyHighCs)

Perhaps I should clarify that I do not believe there was a direct intent to "destroy" anyone but that sometimes by creating "mania" around one artist, other artists of similar abilities are overlooked by JQ Public and by opera managers and are thus "minimized". I often have wondered in what state the opera world would now be had there not been a Breslin. Better, worse, or the same? Eh. ..water over the dam.

breslin left ... ( 8 months ago by operabitch77)

breslin left domingo to make money with pavarotti!!! then he wrote a book about it and made MORE money off pav's talent. crazy huh? anyways, pav dodged alot of things cause he was lazy and not into learning more roles like domingo was. you are right about others like aragall, even domingo

didnt finish... those other tenors didnt have the impact cause breslin marketed the hell out of pav and didnt leave any other room for other good singers. anyways, peace and cheers

With a voice and ... ( 7 months ago by marcherst)

With a voice and the popularity of Luciano, you would have to be a business man. He is utterly fantastic. Of course he was in it for the money, like all else, but at the same time he dearly loved opera. And dearly loved entertaining people, whom he also loved.

I have to agree with "musicfanat" below - let the music speak, let Luciano's great voice ring out, even if only from the recorded studio. He gave SO much, including on stage, and, yes, has produced many goosebumps. He was an exceptional artist - to reduce it to a dollar discussion is petty indeed.

operabitch77, I believe that the main reason perhaps Pavarotti didn't undertake more roles, is that he couldn't sight read music. He had to learn roles by ear, which of course is a much more laborious process. Domingo, of course is a highly trained musician. The great bass Ezio Pinza also couldn't read music. But both men were profoundly musical,
found the most graceful musical line by a gift of nature.

sight reading has ... ( 2 months ago by operabitch77)

sight reading has nothing to do with learning new roles. pav's bank account alloted him the fabulous luxury of having accompanist's teaching him the music note by note. domingo does that too but also plays, conducts and is a well trained musician so, he at times prefers to do the dirty work himself. with pav it comes down to what was making the BIG bucks!!! learing LOTS of roles or singing nessun dorma in stadiums filled to capacity?? stadiums! lazy quite sums that up. or was PAV just smart?

operabitch77, I ... ( 2 months ago by hiyadroogs)

operabitch77, I can't disagree with anything you have said. I think Pavarotti had his eye more on public adoration
the more lucrative concert circuit than art
the opera house. But he was only human,
he had a gift besides his voice that was endearing to the public, - he was charismatic. He is not the first
won't be the last tenor to choose concerts over the more demanding discipline
vocal challenge of opera. John McCormack also did this. Though John lacked the operatic high notes.

It doesn
´t matter if he sang it in theater or not. The role was his, period. Juan Diego Flores simply will never sing in this way. (sorry about fans).

I think it was ... ( 1 month ago by Mooorhe)

I think it was partially that he was lazy, and even if he did have Magiera to hammer the music into him, it was still a huge effort for him to learn anything new and he wasn't often willing. I think the biggest factor contributing to his limited repertoire and stadium concerts was his manager, who chose to market Pavarotti in a unique way and he ended up much more famous as a result. To be fair though, he did most concerts post 1980s, when the gorgeous youth in his voice was gone...

So I really don't ... ( 1 month ago by Mooorhe)

So I really don't mind that he didn't explore a wider repertoire, maybe he would have been good in French opera... But he didn't want to do it and he couldn't speak French... Anyway, it didn't bother me all that much, but that of course differs from person to person, as is the nature of opinion...

...Regardless of ... ( 1 month ago by Mooorhe)

...Regardless of whether he was going to make money with Pavarotti... He made the right decision, managing two tenors who had a 'rivalry' between them would have been unrealistic.

Pavarotti once said this was his best performance on disc. It's a killer role for tenor and he did it to die for.
