Performance
The song, All the Things You Are, when performed by Tony Bennett or Placido Domingo, takes on a different appeal. This is despite the fact that the two performances are of the same piece. In the case of Tony, there is a calmness to the performance. The rhythm is constant and is easy on the listeners as it is not as intense. This is different from the presentations that is made by Domingo, where the rhythm varies frequently as well as the tempo of the performance (Stimmritzenprotz, 2011). This gives the performance some element of intensity and vigor relative to that of Tony. In the later, the performance is slow relative to the slow rhythm associated with the same (Niederer, 2014). Domingo on the other hand uses a faster rhythm to create the intensity.
