Thomas Hampson Masterclass June 24, 2016

I always learn so much from Thomas Hampson's masterclasses.

[pegapl]

Always a great pleasure to listen and watch Thomas Hampson at his masterclasses.

Talking & singing is completely different thing! This is what I can remember of this master class ❤thanks a lot maestro Thomas Hampson!

[gregorius]

What amazes me is the purity and perfection of Thomas Hampson in the German language. For more than 30 years I (born in Germany) listen to the great voices and always found that singers with native English could never perfectly match the difficult German language as by example Friedrich Fischer Diskau. Thomas Hampson is the rare exception ! He is also unique in his holistic approach to music. Music is itself something from a different world and very few are born with a key to this world: our composers. They copied what they heard there. And very few of the singers (Thomas Hampson, René Fleming) enter while they sing into this world of music and perform what they sing in wonderful perfection giving us utmost joy, sometimes we enter into some kind of ecstasy. Yes, we love music because it makes us so happy.

The final pianist was fantastic. And the 2nd singer had a lovely dark centre to his voice like Robert Merill. Fantastic rapport and tuition from Thomas Hampson.

[szerminator]

Thomas is also a great actor and speaker...respect!

[marla]

The young barytone who is singing " o du Mein Holder Abendstern" has a truly unusually gorgeous voice.

Ich finde Thomas Hampson einen ausgezeichneten Gesangslehrer. Er weiß worauf es ankommt, und kann es zudem auch vermitteln. Chapeau!

[mingu]

He became a different lever of a singer after Maestro’s teaching!
Listen and watching video at 1:15..

[DanielAvinashVOIX]

You cannot watch Thomas Hampson and not learn something. Voice teachers are usually not the best singers. Think Seth Riggs or Roger Love. This guy is both! A gem, a genius, and a gentleman.

[arminsteinke]

1:14:00 what a beautiful voice! Such a rich tone and heartbreaking Timbre. And Hampton adjusting singers bodys..

[pegapl]

Thomas Hampson? - He deserves his Like without doing anything at stage!

[AlexOrozco-Social-Pariah]

I don't like Hampsons performance, but his advices are quite on spot. A little bit of an ass that he interrupts more than what should be acceptable for anyone's patience but his advices are great to perfect the technique as an interpreter.

[muhammadtaufiqurachman]

Anyone know the name of 3rd pianist?. Thanks before

[jadenlewis]

what was the piece to the aria sang at 32:13 what song was that melody/aria/part from ?

[Tkimba]

Pretentiousness level: beyond humanly bearable

[lesvegetables]

that first guy looks like sherlock's brother...

[mingu]

It’s more respectful to hear the introduction to introduce a pianist as a pianist someone not as my pianist she or he is pianist someone not my pianist as he or she is not only play piano for one individual singers. This is my opinion.

[tensaiow]

Does anyone know the piece of the 3rd singer to come up on stage?
