Sono di Napoli. E sono orgoglioso di essere concittadino di questo extraterrestre, probabilmente il più grande tenore dell'era moderna. Straordinario. Grazie mille.
Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way. We deserve Hell because we've sinned. Lied, lusted stolen, etc. But God sent his son to die on the cross and rise out of the grave. We can receive forgiveness from Jesus. Repent and put your trust in him. John 3:16 Romans 3:23❤😊❤❤
I love these records, and I am 25 years old. Listen to this since I was 13 years old. Unfortunetaly, here in Brazil, Ópera is the LESSLY popular music genre. People only listen to hip hop, funk, and brazilian country music. One thing I can say: Caruso was the BEST singer of ALL TIMES. Nobody beats him. Excuse me for my bad English, i wish you can understand.

So interesting to hear the progress between one recording and the next. There is increasing confidence, but it's much more than that. By the 1908 one, I'll bet he was thinking, ecco come si fa!
This is absolutely fabulous. Interesting ending on the 1903 recording, he switches to falsetto and then ends the aria on a low B natural. High notes were something he had to work very hard for I know, his voice was not naturally high placed. Once he developed his top it was magnificent. But from firsthand accounts his high B natural may have been the largest of any tenor ever...even bigger than del Monaco's or Tucker's. Cadenza at the end of the 1908 is better than I've heard leggere sing it.
When I first heard that I was like WTF!!!! Each recording has so many differences some very subtle. Overall much different than we are have been hearing. Many tempo changes. The way he pronounces some of the words are also different. I wonder what it sounded like before they had recording equipment. But that switch to the falsetto, so weird.
His first teacher referred to him as a "glass voice" at first, due to the ease with which it broke. Rico bulldogged it into submission through force of sheer will and hours of practice. And as always, he won. Long live Caruso!
Repent and trust in Jesus. we deserve Hell for our sins. For example lying, lusing, saying God's name as a cuss word and stealing our just some examples of sin which we can all admit to doing at least one of those. For our sin we deserve death and Hell, but there is a way out. Repent anf trust in Jesus and you will be saved. Repentence is turning from sin. So repent and trust in Jesus. He will save you from Hell, and instead give you eternal life in Heaven. John 3:16 Romans 3:23❤😊❤😊

Thank you for placing all three versions on one file. The 1903 version with the falsetto is a curiosity more than an accomplished performance, and does Caruso's memory no favours. The 1904 version is as good as Pavarotti's. The 1908 version is mind-blowing, world-altering, and stupendous beyond the range of normal human expectation. Also, for those who feel discouraged in their career choices, listening to all three versions in succession is a reminder that practice does indeed make perfect.
Era una voz nata natural casi no empostaba .se escuchaba muy diferente a muchos Tenores .con un timbre hermoso y gran potencia . Como en mexico el gran jorge negrete tenia un timbre muy natural casi no Empostaba y alcanzaba Tonos impresionantes.
I've got a copy of this 1908 Recording Reissued under licence by His Master's Voice in The Golden Treasury of Immortal Performances in 1956 Record Number CSLP-510 and I would Strongly recommend that all the Men and Women buy all the Recordings in that Serious and next year Mark's the 150th Anniversary of Both Enrico Caruso and Sergei Rachmaninov's Birth and all the Rachmaninov Piano Concertos with Rachmaninov at the Piano have all been Reissued and out off all the three Recordings I think the 1908 Recording is the best one has his Voice was Matured inoff for this famous Ariea
Announcement at the beginning: *Rigoletto, La donna e mobile.* (But I don't know it Caruso speaking voice or speaker). Pale-blue Disco Zonofono X-1555 with crossing back. I owned copy this super-rarity on original 78rpm. And two others also 78rpm. (Victor 1904 & 1908).
That falsetto in 1903 recording was not an initial Caruso’s choice. When you read more about his early life then you can figure he had some problems to sing the highest notes. Even in later years, one time he resigned from Donizetti’s “I Puritani” performance due to number of very high notes. During the one of his very early rehearsals at the MET under Toscanini, Caruso even told him “At this very early morning hour I cannot sing it”. Toscanini, who knew singer problems, insisted you have to learn it quickly because I want to hear that. It has taken at least next two years before Caruso mastered all top notes. It was not Caruso’s fault after all. By nature, his voice register was slightly lower than e.g. Pavarotti or Diego Florez. In later years, his voice even darkened to become more like barito-tenor. Caruso worked very hard to achieve his technique and fame. Look at Jonas Kaufmann or Placido Domingo. They too produced the sound lower and still beautiful.
Yes, he had to work very hard to sing the higher notes including the high C which he only accomplished later in his career. Baritone, bass was not problem (which tenor masters that?). When he finally mastered the high C, he sang it beautifully with an astronishing crescendo, like here: th-cam.com/video/tBG02do9VaE/w-d-xo.html
@@fabriziosarcinelli7566, Domingo and Florez have a different type of tenor voices. I like them but thy are not my idols. The top price goes to Caruso, Lauri Volpi, del Monaco, Corelli, Bjorling, Bergonzi and also not well known in America late Bulgarian Nikola Nikolov.
Really? Corelli's 'la donna' is one of the worst renditions I've ever heard! Caruso's 1908 is probably the best recorded rendition we have by any tenor lyric or spinto, his 1913 'parmi veder' which I prefer to 'la donna' is also spectacular. Caruso didn't record the entire role of course but it was one of his signature roles at the Met, I don't think Corelli ever sang the role live and for good reason, he was terrible in it! I love Corelli in other works though.

Disse tudo
Quelle voix inégalée !
It's amazing how he matured as a singer. He was finally abled to hit those high notes.

Absolutely one of the best recordings of this aria .... and sadly used here in Europe for selling pizza on TV....
The 1908 ranks among the very best recordings this aria, perhaps the very best.
Quelle voix!

@31operafan: the 1908 version I also think is the best. Caruso had worked on his high notes by then.
The announcer is not Caruso
Great! You really can hear the progression- he gets the great cadenza on the 1904 and 1908 but the latter is even more exciting.
Thanks!
great hear how recording quality has improved
That's it.
@@PixelDr33ams he had high notes no c but not mportant styles change high note not in verdis score
Beautiful
Meraviglioso!
El Gran caruso considerado el Mas Grande Tenor del Mundo .el mismo placido Domingo lo reconoce .y Jorge Negrete lo Adniraba mucho.
Era una voz nata natural casi no empostaba .se escuchaba muy diferente a muchos Tenores .con un timbre hermoso y gran potencia .
Como en mexico el gran jorge negrete tenia un timbre muy natural casi no Empostaba y alcanzaba Tonos impresionantes.

No, I don't think it is Caruso talking at the beginning.
Ahh thanks for the heads up! I meant FRANCO BONISOLLI, not Franco Corelli.
@31operafan Yes, it does sound weird and it WAS because he was not confident with the high notes at the time.

Please no compare Caruso with Domingo or Kaufmann!!!! 😩
Florez, Kaufmann and Domingo are among the worst tenors ever

@@johnfalstaff2270 Florez has a little and nasal voice with no chest voice. Domingo is nasal, out of tune, with a awful high register.

Corelli + any kind of coloratura = nnnnnnnope. 🙉

Caruso was one of few spinto tenors I like as the duke. Corelli was another.
Is that Caruso talking at the beginning?
