Corelli is quite an ardent Edgardo. This an exciting performance though I think the recording is a bit shrill. Still, this is a rare document of a Corelli performance. Much appreciates.

He sang Edgardo very seldom. I believe this may have actually been the only time he sang. Because of where the role lays in the passagio, it makes it very difficult for some singers especially those with a lower core to their voice. It's like walking a tight rope. Jan Peerce and Nicolai Gedda had an easier time with this role.

Or maybe, unlike Peerce, Gedda, Tucker, DiStefano, and Pavarotti, Corelli had no real sense of the bel canto style.

[@johnhoie1]

I dunno. He sounds pretty good to me.

[@alleviation91]

​@@meltzerboyThey had higher-lying voices, so this role and other "higher" roles would be easier for them by nature. He also had very little sense of bel canto style, rather more can belto. It can be both, not an either or.

What an odd pairing. Peters sounds like an overtone when singing with Corelli.

[@clefnoteproductions6695]

Sounds like an overtone?

The only time I cried at an opera Edgardo's final music was so heart wrenching. Joan Sutherland and Renato Cioni. Worship Corelli but he's overkill in this role.
