Opera Singers of the Past
Posted by Noah Tunell on October 28, 2024, 7:42 am
As someone who is just about to start my operagoing, I have a question for some of the older operagoers here, and I am only interested in answers based on live performances you have attended. I was wondering if the greats of the past (three tenors era and earlier if possible) were significantly better than modern stars live, as seems to be true from recordings. I know recordings are not the best indicator of how someone sounded live, and I really want to know if the difference between old stars and modern stars in a live performance is really as night and day as it seems. Thanks -Noah
