Brilliant. Comparisons are good, to learn technique and how each did what they did. I think part of the reason standards have fallen is because people think it's wrong to make comparisons. Singers especially, should be making comparisons, especially as they learn. If a comparison can't be made, can't be distinguished, then what hope is there for improvement? People seem to think that to compare, means to insult or put down a singer. They also seem to only be concerned with the audience side of opera; how they experience it. They think that are shouldn't be judged or compared. They don't realise that some people are technical and analytically minded. They have no mind to realise that there is such a thing as technique, style, interpretation, and comparing how career choices and age affect a voice. Pavarotti tells that when he was learning, he made conscious comparisons about tenors he listened to, and even went so far to say which tenors were objectively better. And most people who know voices, and have been listening to different recordings for years can hear whether a recording is studio, live, acoustic etc and know HOW to listen, and the differences and allowances. The people that generally say it's not right to make comparisons, or to compare live, studio and acoustic recordings are usually the same people who insist that singing standards have not fallen and that the difference betweeen a Caruso and a Yvazov is just the different recording technology. These people are deaf and share personal responsibility for the death of opera singing. Many thanks for putting together a great video.
Everything is for opera. I make these videos for people to improve their technical analysis. I am very happy to see such comments. Thank you very much.
This comment is explaining everything. We are not comparing them in a bad way. We are educating ourselves when we are comparing that’s why we are doing it. They are all beautiful tenor nothing to say about it.
@@MindyLeahWilkinson ...LOL...Exactly!. Especially obvious when heard live, the great Corelli was sui generis...a fancy term which means that he was not merely IN a class of his own, he himself WAS the class.
Happy you included the pocket tenor Joseph Schmidt (a 4ft 11 inch man) in your selection. They're all great. But Schmidt's voice his best recordings that survive (most were destroyed after he was labelled a degenerate artist), is extraordinary and full of squillo. Try his Mattinata or La Donne E Mobile recorded live at Carnegie Hall in 1936/37. Schmidt was hunted by the Nazi regime and after escaping occupied France into Switzerland in 1942, died of neglect after internment in a work camp. His complaints of chest pain were dismissed as malingering and he died of heart failure. A tragic story.
It always saddens me that people say we'll never hear tenors the likes of Pavarotti, Corelli, Caruso, Di Stefano, Del Monaco etc. ever again. We will, and there are some that are making great strides, they just are living in the woodwork and nobody knows who they are.
Good recordings. However, I think one has to be careful to recognize the difference in recording environments. Here, Corelli sounds smaller or at least quieter then Raimondi and Tagliavini, which we know isn't the case.
Good point. I have recordings of this aria by all but two of these tenors. Heard on a good LP or CD transfer with decent playback equipment, the recording by Caruso is the one that stands out for me.
No se quién haya hecho esta selección de Tenores pero quien La Haya hecho sabe de canto y técnica vocal, la cual se encuentra extraviada hoy en día salvo honrosas excepciones muy escasas..
Corelli y Bjorling en cualquier comparacion que se haga de cualquier aria que hayan grabado siempre serán los numero 1. Corelli con esa tremenda voz grande y apabullante, y Bjorling por esa voz bella melodiosa aguda y precisa.
It's all a matter of opinion, no right or wrong, there is no such thing as so and so is the best, the best is whoever you like best! What I think in the aria is great, another person may not agree, even some professional critics disagree, and statements like "so and so is best" is just the best for that person and yes your own opinion is the most important for yourself, I have mine also, and mine is the important one for me! Some tenors are better in other arias, and maybe less great in this beautiful Lyric aria, so it also depends on what they are singing, in most cases Bjoerling and Corelli get the most raves, anyhow there are several very fine ones here.
Thank you for including Gianfranco Cecchele, one of the few tenors that I feel could rival Corelli in power, timbre and good looks. Too bad he burned out so early and rarely travelled outside Italy.
The recording equipment of the old days may be unfair for some tenors, beside that how to compare the acomperable Pavarotti? In my ears, after Pavarotti is Giuseppe Giacomini
Ragazzi, credendo alla veridicità delle registrazioni Voi state ignorando un fatto cioè che nel mondo della lirica esistono due tipi di vocalità- voci fonogeniche che i microfoni 🎤 adorano e le voci veramente grandi che i microfoni 🎙️ odiano ! Sovente le registrazioni sopratutto quelle realizzate usando Lo Stereo sono una dolce 🍭 illusione. Per il conto mio preferisco le registrazioni Mono per tantissime ragioni strettamente allegate con la verità artistica . Per esempio ascoltando le registrazioni di Pavarotti e Fleta a volte la voce di Pavarotti sembra più bella e grande da quella di Fleta. In realtà 1 Fleta = 50 Pavarotti Dal vivo era così . Da dove lo so ? Avevo sentito la voce di Pava durante più di 30 anni dal vivo e mi ricordo ancora cosa mi raccontavano degli anni 60 i miei amici tutti dei cantanti noti della vocalità Enorme di Miguel Fleta e la sua bellezza artistica unica. il vecchio

È una lotta tra GIGANTI, senza fare torto a nessuno, per l'interpretazione e la bellezza del timbro in cima alla piramide metterei il nostro Lucianone !
Il nostro Lucianone senza microfono 🎤 purtroppo si sentiva poco nella sala … E per dirla tutta aveva una voce piccola piccolina … Per il repertorio leggero andava benissimo, per il repertorio verista e quello drammatico faceva pallida figura. Grande uomo , grande nome - poca voce . il vecchio
@@bodiloto Che per certi ruoli la voce di Lucianone non sia adatta sono d'accordo, non ci deve trarre in inganno che una voce "chiara pulita" sia meno potente di una voce "scura" . È anche una questione di timbro!👋
I really like the way this comparison has been arranged. I'm almost 64 years of age, and my personal favourite has always been Luciano Pavarotti. All I would like to say now is that I think there are some names missing. First name that comes into my mind is Mario Lanza.
Jose Carreras is also missing and his earlier records of this aria are beautiful, not the horrendous one he made with Michael Tilson Thomas in which he sings the ending of this aria pianissimo.
It's a tragedy that the proper way to sing is hardly taught anywhere anymore and that opera is being murdered by people who don't love the art of singing.
Nice effort on the video, but it includes some of the weakest versions of that aria for some tenors. Corelli, Bergonzi and Pavarotti, among others, have recorded several much, much better interpretations of this aria and of Tosca as a whole, so the "best comparison ever" would include them. I hope you don't take this the wrong way, I appreciate the time it took to make this, and it's still an interesting comparison anyway.
I wouldn't call it the best comparison, there are live versions against studio versions. You should either pick live or studio versions, otherwise it just isn't fair, live recordings also often suffer from distortion that affects the sound quality, which affects people's opinions. That being said, Franco Corelli, this is more because I have heard everyone sing this, then from these specific samples. But nice work overall.
Thank you very much for your nice comment. I want to show as many examples to my audience as possible. But I agree with what you said. I will be more careful for this.
@@opera.turkiye You did a really good job, better then most other TH-camrs! I know it can be a very difficult task. I also make videos. I hope you keep on going, these comparisons are really fun!
A whole heap of glorious bellowing here with great tenors showing their gigantic loudness. But Bergonzi’s Mario stands out here sounding as if he truly loves Tosca, infusing his performance with tenderness as well as power.
I'm very critical about this aria,because Tosca is my favorite opera. So,it was very difficult to choose the best Cavaradossi here. My vote goes to only one and this is PAVAROTTI. Although,his voice is lyric,Cavardossi shoud be spinto,like Bergonzi. But, when you look at the score bellow,he is the only one who sings "Con scritto". No more,no less. (Giacomini's timber is immortal!) ❤️)
Some poor reconrding are included, as Corelli´s and Tucker´s and some tenors that never had sung Cavaradossi, as Schipa, Björling or Pavarotti. This role was written by Puccini for a tenore robusto, Emilio de Marchi, but also spinto tenors could sing well, as did Tucker, Filippeschi and Corelli, and some lyrics tenors, as Gigli and di Stefano. In short, this comparison is not right for tenors called leggero, as Schipa and Tagliavini. However, Tagliavini had a more forceful voice than Schipa´s. Some robust tenores, as Kirt Baum, Giuseppe Giacominini and Gian-Franco Cechele are good ones. The final comment is than some chose recordings are not the best, as Corelli´s and Baum´s. Greetings,
Corelli has both the metal and the passion - impossible not to be moved by his singing. Bjorling has the tenderness and heartache - also moving. Sorry not to see Alfredo Kraus in your selection.
Purtropppo in questa rassegna manca forse il migliore interprete in questo ruolo G. ARAGAL.

Giuseppe Giacomini.
I miss Virgilius Noreika here. A very underated tenor. Bjorling and Corelli are just wonderful (as always)
Impossible to choose one among these greats, each one with their voice timbre and their style are wonderful.
Lo dijo Rodolfo Celletti; la voz de Corelli es inimitable.
Thankyou.comparisons are always interesting and informative.
Thank you for your nice comments.

Great tenors and playing the game of guessing who! Such timbres!
I think it will be really helpful to play this game. Enjoy it :)
1)Raimondi 2)Pertile 3)Jussi 4)Di Stefano 5)Corelli
Raimondi sounds amazing on this recording
Yes he's a very underrated full lyric tenor
Corelli Giacomini Pertile Di Stefano
pertile che gigante
Why on earth did you choose Di Stefano's 1961 version ? His 1953 version, under De Sabata, is obviously much better!
Corelli y Bjorling en cualquier comparacion que se haga de cualquier aria que hayan grabado siempre serán los numero 1. Corelli con esa tremenda voz grande y apabullante, y Bjorling por esa voz bella melodiosa aguda y precisa.
Tutti grandi interpreti. Un plauso a Jussi Bjorling per la dizione. Per me Franco Corelli e Pippo di Stefano sono sempre i migliori.
Итальянские певцы золотого века оперы,просто сводят с ума! Сейчас так не поют.Спасибо за видео! Могу слушать это бесконечно!
Corelli sopra tutti.

Some tenors are better in other arias, and maybe less great in this beautiful Lyric aria, so it also depends on what they are singing, in most cases Bjoerling and Corelli get the most raves, anyhow there are several very fine ones here.
la miglior interpretazione di sempre e' quella di Giuseppe di Stefano e anche di Bonisolli
Non esiste la migliore! Sono differenti!
Gianni Raimondi is exceptional
Thank you for including Gianfranco Cecchele, one of the few tenors that I feel could rival Corelli in power, timbre and good looks. Too bad he burned out so early and rarely travelled outside Italy.
His voice was few sizes smaller, he sang like Giacomini with a somewhat depressed larynx.
Giuseppe di stefano and Beniamino gigli is my favorite legend tenor
The recording equipment of the old days may be unfair for some tenors, beside that how to compare the acomperable Pavarotti? In my ears, after Pavarotti is Giuseppe Giacomini
All of the great voices that were lost to the world...
Che bella carrellata di Tenori, "Onore"
Jussi Bjorling ❤❤❤❤
Bjorling's voice was extraordinary.
Can you please do a La vita mi costasse comparisson?
1) Corelli
2) Raimondi
3) Cecchele
4) Pavarotti

Conclave di fuoriclasse,
Di Stefano senza pari!

Krauss? what happened?
Mario del Monaco
Joseph Schmidt il mio favorito.
Idea: for your next endeavour “Current living tenors”. :-)
Baum da Codice Penale, Corelli mastodontico sin troppo mentre Pippo “è” Cavaradossi.
Jose carreras 1976 london
Da fan di Di Stefano dico che Gianni Raimondi è quello che mi ha impressionato di più mentre Bjorling mi ha deluso.

And, to answer your question, Caruso.

There's something in Pavarotti phrasing and timbre that makes his performances so touching
Assolutamente Giacomini !!!
The most beautiful version is Björling's. But there are other nice versions too.
Классс!
Tagliavini is sooo underated
big mistake not to put maestro volpi in this comparison. his version of recondita is the best and he is!
Big Luciano in quest'aria è inarrivabile. Notevole è anche la malia che sprigiona la malinconica vocalità di Tito Schipa.

The best one is not here: ALFREDO KRAUS

Tucker has always been my favorite Verismo tenor, though Corelli is a close second.
They are all great, but where is Domingo? One of Opera's greatest interpreters, especially of Cavaradossi!
This is your own opinion. Domingo isn't that good of an opera singer.
