Pavarotti lost it a long time ago and there are tenors around who can
a) phrase and b) are a hell of a lot more attractive to look at. He quit
vocalizing at one point and there was the infamous performance where he ate
on stage while other singers were performing, claiming it would 'clear his
throat"
He has been little but a personality for about 20 years now. Pity.
So I wouldn't care whether he was following the music or not...that said:
how do you think he learned the parts in the first place? He doesn't make
"La Traviata" up as he goes along. And what do you think the orchestra is
doing? They don't memorize EVERYTHING.
Anyway, a recipe is sometimes something to follow to the letter and
sometimes just a starting point.
You really can't compare, unless you are citing a musician who is
improvising variations of themes, or playing jazz. In Jazz, once the
principles of music are grasped, one can improvise freely...but jazz
musicians usually have a HUGE grasp of keys, chord progressions etc.
Otherwise, it's just noise.
Yeah, I'm a little bored today...waiting for deliveries, repairs etc (new
"old" house - 1818!!!!!)
cheers
