Great bass sings Onegin aria at 90

A much-treasured clip 🙂

Apparently this was actually on his 90th birthday itself – bits of info here and there on that unimpeachable source, the Internet, indicate the performance was a gala in his honor. Even if the bottom sounds a bit rocky (and I’m not sure that isn’t down to the recording quality), what lovely high notes. Thanks for posting this.

Thank you for sharing a very stirring moment which I otherwise would not have known about
