I saw an ad for this on YouTube yesterday, and I’ve seen this at least 10 times in the past day. I’ve never been to the Met, let alone seen an Opera performance, but Peter’s voice is pure magic. His gestures and body language are so natural and fluid, and he has such a strong command over the rehearsal space. I understand why he’s a world class caliber performer.

Not only is his voice the best, he expresses the words in Italian so perfectly it feels even more wonderful for one who speaks Italian to hear. Really brings the character to life.
Bravo, che talento spettacolare.

Such elegance and legato in his singing. One of the finest baritones in the world.

[RadagonTheRed]

His voice is just perfection. It’s like honey being poured into your ears.

[ebelskivers]

The legato he’s able to achieve is unbelievable!!💜💜

I saw this in an Instagram ad for the met today and I literally can’t stop listening 😍😍😍

Listening to Mattei’s serenade my heart is melting ❤

[GeertenGoossens]

He has such a bright and crisp voice. Beautiful.

I just booked to see this on the cinema in the UK -live. I can't wait. I have never heard his voice before and I am blessed to have the opportunity ro see and hear this production. What a sublime voice!

[uhhhsure]

I never thought I'd be interested in opera until hearing this. His voice is unlike anyone's I've ever heard.

[mahnighorashi]

Not just a stunning baritone, but what a musician! Those ornaments and that endless legato. Wow.

[akechijubeimitsuhide]

The fact he can do both this and Amfortas and be amazing in both roles!

[DeirdreMcNamara]

Absolutely hypnotic. Who needs sets and directorial gimmicks when a performer of the calibre of Peter Mattei is on stage! His interpretations are incredible, but the voice is "da cielo" with such extraordinary emotional flexibility...that he can perform the same aria romantically on a special occasion but so seductively on stage /rehearsal. Winterreise is phenomenal...I can hear it a thousand times but find a new dimension each time... Bellissimo!

[misssophie]

the most beautiful bariton voice alive, lucky people who got to hear it live

[papagen]

how old is this guy who can still sing like that??

[AnneCooke]

Oh my God! That wonderful voice. I wouldn't just come to that window, i'd be climbing out of it.

He is best Don Giovannie's singer imo. I buy tickets to Metopera's online cinema in my city. It is very pleasant event. Today it was Peter's Don Giovanni. You know, in full opera he is more mild and sweet. Oh, I think there in MetOpera's hall it is very other acoustics. And more feelings, whole environment, and fantastic casting. And perfect Lorenco!
