Give me a panel that includes Tony Pappano, David McVicar, Kiri te Kanawa and Bryn Terfel, then we'll take it seriously. Make the wannabes take on some recitative, some ensemble work, and solo singing against an orchestra. Oh, and put them in front of a live audience and take away their mikes.
I have absolutely no doubt that Will Young is capable of singing Nessun Dorma in tune. But what will that prove? That Will young can hold a tune and has a sweet voice. I think we know that already.
