More Details on Ruggero Raimondi: Recital
Raimondi's voice is actually somewhat closer to a bass-baritone than a true bass, but this did not prevent him from successfully singing most of the great bass roles - King Philip in Don Carlo, Fiesco in Simon Boccanegra, Boris Godunov, and Silva in Ernani being his most celebrated - as well as the roles more associated with bass-baritones, such as Escamillo, Mozart’s Figaro, Don Alfonso in Così fan tutte, and Don Giovanni, and even a concert version of Scarpia.
He is also quite celebrated as a singing actor, and has occasionally directed operas.
