am writing this review (with all due respect) to counter the review
below that advises Placido Domingo to give up singing baritone roles.
Domingo is a great artist whose longevity on the operatic scene is a
source of admiration to me. While he is no longer a young singer, he has
matured as an artist and as an actor. All this is evident from his
performance here as Simon Boccanegra which is moving and heart-felt. I
do not believe this is Mr. Domingo's attempt to have a second career as a
baritone, it is simply that he CAN sing this role and he brings so much
to it. At this stage in his career and with all the gifts that he has
given us over the years, if he wants to sing a baritone role, I would
say go for it. I would like to also point out that many years ago when
he was singing all the great tenor roles, he recorded Figaro in the
Barber of Seville (another baritone role). Some of these baritone roles
have a high tessitura and they could easily be sung by a dramatic tenor.
I also would like to point out that Adrienne Pieczonka is marvelous
singer and great artist. For me any chance to see her perform is a great
occasion. I do not believe for a second that she is having an off night
in this DVD.
