Indigo-No shit Sherlock! Did you come up with that all by yourself? It should be obvious to anyone with a half brain that I was referring to native speakers of English in the US. And let's be realistic. How many Canadians, Canadians or Latino/Hispanics do you know who call themselves as Americans in reference to the continent they inhabit?

Actually, Kraus sounded nasal as compared to Pava. And suggesting that Pavarotti didn't learn Bel Canto is simply nonsense. I'd suggest you beam yourself back to reality.

Not really. Corelli diction in his native language was not as pleasant as Pavarotti. Do all Americans speak English with the same level of mastery? I don't think so! :)

I think that prime Pavarotti's high C was far better sounding than Florez's. Florez's C comes much more easily to him of course, but effortlessness doesn't guarantee better sounding high Cs. For example, I FAR prefer Bergonzi's C to Bocelli's C, but Bocelli's C comes much more easily to him.I like Florez, but I prefer Kraus and Pavarotti, I even prefer Brownlee.

Wow, you are ridiculous, Pavarotti didn't learn the bel canto style?Go do some research, before you spout out more crap and look like an idiot.

far beyond anything I could hope to achieve. Comparing the two is exceedingly difficult, with most differences coming down to simple personal preference.

While not a singer myself, and not knowing enough about musical theory to be entirely sure what is intentional styling and what is simply the limits of the singer... It feels a bit to me like Pavarotti's transition to the high-C is more natural than Florez'. Florez, at least in the recording I heard, seems to pause for a moment to gather breath - I don't hear that from Pavarotti. Pavarotti also feels richer to the ears. That said, both singers have nearly superhuman voices (cont).
