Amazing is a fabulous description. There's probably not too many words that can really describe such skill. Wow.

Trev,

That's another outstanding performance! I hadn't got to that one yet. Thanks for posting it. His vocal range in pitch, quality and dynamics is truly exceptional!

When you say 'mesmerized', that is EXACTLY the right word for describing the impact of his music and his performing on me. I know what you mean!

Noel

I just checked on line to see if this is the same as a countertenor. Apparently so. I had a teacher, Enico Luk, who specialised in this and what really surprised me is that they are often baritones. Check out this at 19 mins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWmPsXk5KWY
I thought it would be kind of cool to add it too the range.... but apparently you have to decide either baritone or countertenor. I guess the tenor voice is too powerful to go that way.

The baritones in Il Divo do some incredibly high stuff, but I couldn't find a clip. The tenors are just incredible - period.
Well worth checking out though as stunning live.

Have a listen to Il Divo. I'd love to be able to wow a concert hall like they do.

I agree. IL DIVO are incredible. I've been a fan ever since I accidentally stumbled across them around 10 years ago.
