That is the thing exactly.
Domingo really has a more classical, academically trained voice. He has better range than Pavorotti even if he could not match the quality of Luciano's high C's (in Pavarotti's prime). He is a great opera singer.
But great Art is not only about skill. It is about communicating feelings.
Magic.
How can Bob Dylan possibly be so good ? That voice ?

I am sorry if you think I was demeaning the format or the feelings you experienced . Cheese is a big part of that wonderful Italian character (and cooking).
It must have been VERY neat indeed.
