Благодарю Вас за такие редкие и потому ценные видеокадры творчества Франко Корелли. Как жаль, что никто не додумался снимать, фотографировать и записывать всю хронику деятельности любимого тенора. Сила судьбы да и только...Желаю Вам дальнейших поисков, интересных находок и мы Вас любим и надеемся на успех. С уважением Натали.
I agree. No words can reflect the quality and superb artistry of Franco Corelli. I was privileged to hear him in Turandot in 1961 in Naples. His was a God given voice and nature. May he be with all the other magnificos in Paradise.
Sadly, maestro Franco Corelli died 2 days after I was born making it impossible for me to see his live performances. So, every single of his videos like this are treasure for me. Thank you! Edit: Looking forward for the future videos. I'll try my best to support.
It was a great pleasure to see Franco on stage. His beautiful, slender, tall figure, his costumes, his movement. I hope you will find more films ! Thank you Olga and Eszter for your work !!!
Sarà sicuramente una cosa stratosferica vederLo è ascoltarLo come mai avremmo sperato. È eccitante e non vedo l’ora che arrivino le 19.00 di questa sera. Un Grazie enorme alla signora Olga e a Te che con passione e sicuramente pazienza hai dato voce a questi video. Da Corelliani convinta sono commossa. A stasera
Vielen herzlichen Dank für diese einziartigen Dokumente dieses grandiosen Sängers !! Er war der Größte von seiner grandiosen Stimme und von seiner Statur..zum Weinen schön !!!
How wonderful to see Franco Corelli on stage, live. Thank you for all the work and hunting that must have gone into this video. You are amazing! Thank you!😊
This is truly an amazing find. I think two things that these clips really shows, is that Franco was quite a good actor and this also shows his amazingly tall stage figure and presence. How or why were all of these short clips recorded?
Stanley Levine, who made the videos, was a stage manager at the Metropolitan Opera for many decades, and he probably recorded the performances as a hobby. I think he is the same Stanley Levine who, as this article reveals, was also in charge of getting Franco from his dressing room to the stage without fleeing the building during the 1970 Cavalleria :) corelli.notion.site/A-champion-tenor-defends-his-title-1970-b0054706b923437f8988cdd436ff5dbc (Interestingly, as the text running in the video reveals, Levine edited this collection of videos (which originally included a lot of other clips, not just Corelli ones) for John Darrenkamp in 1987, who, as well as being Franco's partner on multiple occasions (e.g. as Marcello in 1969 in Philadelphia), is also a huge fan of his and even a member of our group on Facebook.)
@@FrancoCorelliInfoCenter Thanks, that is very interesting. I guess it was somewhat amateur and he did not really record long sections. He likely had limited space. How astonishing that this footage survived all of these years. Great job on matching the audio and the scenes.
I want to thank you for creating this TH-cam channel and for all your hard work of looking for all those materials and videos. It is such a treasure for us, young opera singers!
Il restera toujours le plus grand et le plus beau des ténors au monde indetronable immense unique merci franco magnifique dans mon cœur ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Hacia los años 80 circuló el anuncio de la puesta en venta de un video VHS con una función de Turandot de 1961, dirigida por Leopold Stokowski, con Nilsson y Moffo, a color, en páginas de revistas especializadas de EE.UU. ¿Se sabe algo de eso?
Unfortunately, I don't know anything about this. I've never heard of that advertisement. However, where these clips came from, there was also an excerpt from Turandot with Nilsson - just not with Franco, but with James King. In the next few days that will also appear on TH-cam (along with numerous other clips featuring various opera stars from the same era) on a friend's "new" channel.
I am sure I heard the CAVALLERIA at the MET was filmed and they just never showed it. If Gelb could find it he'd make some money. I think I heard it was owned by Pepsi Cola or Coke who were the sponsors
