    I heard that one of the reasons Giacomini stopped singing at the Met was because he didn't want to be second cast to Domingo's light Otello. When you hear this you can understand why. Domingo could only dream of sounding like this in this role.

    • @jphubert
      @jphubert 5 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      I am biased against Domingo because to my ear he lacks squillo, has no effective top and has a voice that is not capable of great volume. He began early on as a much more lyrical tenor and probably should have avoided the dramatic and spinto roles.

      There are so many stories about why one singer does this or that. I saw part of Otello as sung by Domingo. He was hardly "light." The last scene was just heartbreaking, especially when he realized Desdemona was innocent. If his name was other than Domingo no one would tell such stories. For shame.

    I was lucky enough to work with Giacomini back in '96, at Covent Garden, in Turandot. I was singing the minor role of the Mandarin and on the 1st day of rehearsals we had a music run-through in a small studio room. I will never forget the sheer size and volume of Giacomini's voice; he had so much 'blade' (focus) in his voice it was almost unbearable to behold in a small space. I have worked with many great voices since, but none have left me feeling quite as awe struck as he did. An unbelievably powerful instrment.

      and one other question, my father was tenor and choirus master with the Dutch Groot Omroepkoor, and the got a grammy for Faure, as his son (tenor too) I heard a lot of tenors like Gedda, Bergonzi, Domingo, Carreras, James King, Alagna and a lot of Russians under Gergiev, but why Giacomini was never that famous???

    Concerning Mr. Giacomini. Once I found myself being covering him in La Forza del Destino; at that point I have never heard him but knew of him. When the reheatrsal began and he opened his first line: 'Ah per sempre' I though 'WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING HERE'. If this man have to stop in the middle of a perdormance and I have to jump in, the audience will kill me. Thanks God he never cancel.

    I listened Giacomini live 4 times; two of them here in Padua in concert at the Verdi Theater. I too do keep a bright memory of the several great qualities of his singing, but inevitably the more vivid one is the incredible strength of his voice. The last note of "Cielo e mare", the si bemolle "Ah vien...!" was a crescendo of inexhaustible, unforgettable power.

  • @SPTN58
    @SPTN58 6 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I was standing on stage quite close to him in his 1977 "Norma" performances at the Wiener Staatsoper. The Norma was Molnar-Talajic. I remember his voice cutting through my head like a knife, and hearing it come back to us on the stage. He was not a big man, but his voice sounded like it, and it was produced without any visible tension. Thinking about the tenors I heard at the Staatsoper from the period 1974-78, I'd say his squillo was unmatched.

    I heard Giacomini in Dallas in the late 70's/ early 80's. I think I heard him in Forza and it was amazing. Pure, virile sound. None of this psuedo-stuff that is churned out these days masquerading as big time throats. Corelli and Giacomini were 18 wheelers in a parking lot full of Chevy Novas. In my next life, if God will not let me sound like Corelli, then I will insist on Giacomini.

    I´m a professional singer too, and as far as I know Giacomini had a very respectable career. I´ve seen him in several occasions and once, when I was younger and still singing in a chorus, I stood on stage with him as he sang Radames. He is a very good singer. I don´t think singers should be judged by how famous they are. Not everybody wants to have that kind of career.
    Nor everybody can, that´s true too. Cograts to both of them, Milnes and Giacomini.
    BTW Domingo is a great singer as well.

At the end of the aria "Sois immobile" he suddenly applies a "si bemol", when he sings in Italian the phrase "pensa alla madre...." (songe à ta mère...). Unbelievable!

    At the end Milnes sings the same high note as Giacomini, not a lower one as baritons do. This proves Milnes was actually a dramatic tenor who chose to go bariton. Have you heard his "songe à ta mère, elle nous attend tous les deux" of his Guillaume Tell? (recorded in Italian with Pav)

      Milnes was a lyric baritone. If he was a tenor, he would be a LYRIC tenor.

    excellent interpretation of this gradiose duo. If I'm not wrong, Milnes signs the same high note as the tenor at the end, in the "Dio Vendicator!" - That could be a proof Milnes is actually a dramatic tenor who has chosen to stick to bariton - Re the "pensa a la madre" in "Sois immobile=resta immobile" of Guillaume Tell.

    First great moment at 1:05, what a fortissimo, second great moment at 1:40,very best moment at 3:53. Giacomini is an absolut killer tenore here, Milnes a wonderful bartione. Both are powerhouses.

    I'll answer that for you, having heard both live many times. Giacomini had (has?) a monstrously huge voice. He'd bury Sherrill every time, though, as you say, Milnes has a sizable voice. When at his best, an absolutely overwhelming, fabulous dramatic tenor.

    A duet for Verdi baritone and robusto tenor would sound like two bari-tenors that have easy A4s.

    I was there on that evening sitting in a box only slightly forward from the stage. In the box next to us was Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman. This duet was a remarkable close to the first half of this Tucker Gala. Giacomini cruised while Milnes was sweating afterward. Truely remarkable singing which is quite out of fashion today. The only way a singer becomes famous is when a conductor uses him everywhere possible. Most conductors were jealous of this wonderful singer.

    • @susanfilip2286

      and I bet you are absolutly right. Espacially about the jealous conductors. This is one of the reasons we have so many weak voices on stage.

    Fantastic duo! - Giacomini reminds me of Ramon Vinay - They are the most baritonal tenors I have ever heard. And Milnes excellent as usual, the tenorest baritone I remember - He hits the high note at the Dio Vendicator, like the tenor.
