    Sublime, divine Corelli and Simionato: this duet and the duet of Simionato and Ghiaurov from the same performance are among the most precious gems of operatic history. Corelli is heartbreaking and his technique superhuman. Simply phenomenal!

    • @jphubert

      +bastianinicorelli I believe Corelli was the best Operatic tenor of the 20th century.

    • @bastianinicorelli
      @bastianinicorelli 8 ปีที่แล้ว +48

      I gladly agree with you! Without underestimating the titans before him (Caruso, Gigli, Pertile, Lauri-Volpi), Corelli simply had 100% of everything that matters: quality and size of the voice, technique, musicality, imagination, sensitivity, sensuality, passion, tenderness, elegance, abandon, ability to appreciate and create beauty, taste, looks. His detailed and memorable phrasing makes him the ideal interpreter of most of the roles he sang: Chenier, Don Jose, Calaf, Cavaradossi, Canio, Enzo, Turiddu, Don Alvaro, Don Carlo, Radames, Manrico, Ernani, Macduff, Raoul, Romeo, Werther... No other tenor could express love, desperation, vulnerability, tenderness, abandon like Corelli!

      Well said. Corelli expressed tragedy vocally better than any other tenor I have ever heard. He truly had the complete package.

    El diminuendo en 5:05 es alucinante... Dos artistas magníficos con unas voces que ya no existen. A Corelli a veces se le acusa de cierta tosquedad: aquí, en la segunda sección del duetto, ambos exhiben un juego de tenuto y rubato increíbles.

  • @WilsonWatt-q2e
    @WilsonWatt-q2e ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Surely the greatest tenor voice of the 20th century. For those who question his "technique" listen to the dimuendo on "tu m
    ami". Very few opera singers in any range can make such a perfect dimuendo and fill it with expressive emotion at the same time.

      David Solomon Pavarotti was so overrated my friend. He came when marketing was abused in the world of Opera & his Agency etc. Exploited it beyond measure etc. And today it's to such a low level that we don't even go to see Opera performers at all. The only true Opera singer we would go see is Saioa Hernandez. Coming to Seattle,Gioconda 5-8-2021.We,ll be there if God willing my friend. Arnold Bourbon Amaral

    È stata una fortuna che la Scala abbia cambiato programma cancellando Guglielmo Tell sostituendolo con Ugonotti.Non avremmo ascoltato questo duetto in cui Corelli e Simionato penso abbiano raggiunto il momento più alto delle rispettive carriere.Chi non ha mai ascoltato Gli Ugonotti rimane indubbiamente stupito dall’ascolto di questo duetto ma anche chi lo ha ascoltato in altre edizioni (rare) in questa ascolta una meraviglia come se Meyerbeer avesse scritto l’opera per Corelli e Simionato con le loro voci appaganti e possenti dimentiche di quella filologia che ci viene somministrata ogni piè sospinto come se questa fosse la panacea di tutti i mali.Si dice che Meyerbeer abbia scritto la parte di Raul per Adolphe Nourrit ,famoso tenore contrattino di allora ,ma avendo ascoltato l’edizione integrale Decca con il tenore Vrenios,simil voce di Nourrit anche se questi probabilmente più bravo,non mi sono ne strappato i capelli ne sono balzato dalla sedia per la gioia e l’emozione…Dell’intepretazione di Corelli e Simionato si è detto tutto,anche i più recalcitranti critici si son dovuti arrendere ammettendo che teatralmente il duetto funziona con quella minima carica anche veristica.Anche nei 334 commenti letti c’è tutto il bene possibile e le iperboli si sprecano e mi aggiungo anch’io confermando le emozioni che ci provocano le due voci insieme e il pathos con cui Corelli esprime l’amore alla sua donna.Senza contare i vertici vocali raggiunti con una facilità e sicurezza sbalorditiva.

    Corelli in his prime at 41, and Simionato never sounding better than this, EVER, in her 53rd year (and near the very end of her career!!). She brilliantly matches every high Bb, B natural and C that Franco sings with one of her own. Indeed, although she sang Amneris, Azucena and Eboli, the "high" Verdi mezzo roles, Valentina was the highest lying role she ever sang. What a triumph for her, too! Brava, Giulietta. Ti voglio bene assai.

      There are many good voices. But you are asking the impossible to compare them to Corelli. That's not fair.

      Sono completamente d'accordo.Ritengo un'offesa paragonare i tre di sopra a Corelli....E' una questione di onestà intelletuale...Ci può stare il "tifo" ma costoro non hanno mai fatto accapponare la pelle a nessuno e raggiungere i traguardi come in questo duetto non è stato nelle loro corde e non lo sarà mai (Kaufmann, pur bravo in certo repertorio).
