Winkler Gábor - Bende Zsolt - Style and elegancia

According to many, Zsolt Bende was one of the most elegant and stylistically conscious artists of the Hungarian opera scene, an artist who also sang and played operetta perfectly....In this volume, the reader can learn about his somewhat tortuous career, his later rise as a singer, and his modest and quiet, restrained character. While he was also outstanding as a vocal teacher: he did not impose his own ideas on his students, but rather let them find their own way, guiding and accompanying them with a firm hand. Ferenc Baranyi was able to summarize his singing best: "He who is blessed with a baritone voice is certainly not easy to stand out. The baritone is the middle voice range of male singers - and the middle ones are the most unnoticed everywhere. In the majority of cases, the baritone is only rewarded for his beautiful singing of the middle notes by a polite celebration and a polite expression of approval. Zsolt Bende is a lyrical baritone. The composers have always treated such people rather rudely... Lyrical baritones also get some great leading roles... but in a large part of the operas they have to make do with secondary or episodic roles. Zsolt Bende was able to turn small roles into leading roles to initiate, because his voice has a lyric. Not only because he is a lyrical baritone, but because he conveys poetry.
