Some credit to Puccini needed— the Te Deum is a MASTERPIECE!

The kid in the red suit though. He knew all the words of "Tre sbirri" lol

[sirystio]

Потрясающее исполнение, сто раз браво маэстро!

Gagnidze is one of the best baritones and singing actors of today.

Best villain in years. Saw him yesrs ago. Was great. Was so convincing as the evil Scarpia the crowd booed him .I cheered! Will see him on the 4th of Nov at the Met. Rock on!

[BellaFirenze]

The three mea culpas were a tad over the top.

[vincebossi]

Avrei preferito uno scarpia più insinuante con comportamento nobile

[siegfriedenea]

So much talent … in a conduction and direction like a soap opera.
It’s sad to see so great artists in a boulesque show

[gja]

A bit too much of chorus for me in the last minute.

[tonshaad]

How can one expect him to sing the Te Deum when he gets obliterated by the sound of the chorus and the orchestra? Is this really this generation's "dramatic" baritone? You got to be kidding me!
