La grabación del "Adriano in Siria" de Pergolesi, muy recomendable, incluso para Ruspoli . La verdad es que las tres óperas que ha dirigido Marcon merecen la pena.

(A propósito del intercambio de opiniones que manteníamos hace unos dias sobre la calidad de los contratenores a lo largo del tiempo, esta descarga merece mucho la pena. La grabación procede de un LP editado hacia 1960!!!. Aunque el estilo poco tiene que ver con las pautas de interpretación actuales, la voz de Oberlin es realmente prodigiosa).

(NOTA: Edito el mensaje para indicarles que el sonido de esta trabación deja mucho que desear: se escucha muy lejano y con un zumbido de fondo bastante desagradable).

En el hilo de los contratenores en su día se colgaron varios vídeos de Oberlin, no sólo cantando, sino explicando, en una entrevista para la televisión (muy antigua, porque era en blanco y negro), en qué consistía la técnica del falsete (aunque Oberlin siempre ha sostenido que la suya era una voz natural).
