Such a clear Laser Core to the Voice warm but clear and well within its Limit of expressive Interpretation perhaps twice the Resonance of Contemporary Voices
EXTRAORDINARIA! VOZ HEROICA A LA ITALIANA!! Creo que hay una ruptura generacional de este tipo de voz y va ser de más en más difícil escuchar una VERDADERA TURANDOT!!!
Taken from a BBC programme called "Puccini: the Man and his Music" broadcast at 9pm on the Regional Programme. The BBC Chorus (Section C) and the BBC Theatre Orchestra (Augmented) were conducted by Stanford Robinson (Assistant, Arnold Perry). "This programme, which was first produced in March 1936, was in the nature of an experiment-an attempt to broadcast an impression, not only of Puccini's work, but of his unique personality, his moods, and his methods. In place of stereotype announcements of musical items, the presentation took the form of a brief biography, extracts from his letters, outstanding incidents in that chequered career - failures which turned to triumphs-and the unquenchable spirit of the man in face of jealous opposition. The musical illustrations were taken from Madam Butterfly, La Bohème, Tosca, Manon Lescaut , and Turandot. Three members of the original cast are taking part in this revival - Eva Turner , Dino Borgioli , and Nora Gruhn." The programme was broadcast the following day on the National programme, and repeated with a slightly different cast (though including Turner and Borgioli) on 20 March 1940.
What is amazing is that despite such a huge and luscious voice, she was able to retain all the refinement and chararacterization of the role. Her voice was really trained "all'italiana". My dear friend Licia Albanese was her Liù during the Royal Coronation performances at Covent Garden. She said that her voice was "like a rocket and was filling the large auditorium seemingly totally effortlessly. And Giovanni Martinelli was far better than this tenor!
You cannot compare Dino Borgioli and Giovanni Martinelli. Two completely different voices. Borgioli was not wise to have sung this role, but it was at a time where proper vocal technique and phrasing was more important than just size of voice. Who knows exactly why he agreed to this, either way, if you listen to his other recordings, especially Barbiere and Rigoletto, I hope you can find a real appreciation for one of the great tenors of the past.
Su voz acá capta mucho mejor su voz y suena mucho mas oscura y metalica a comparación de sus otras grabaciones Famosas donde suena con un timbre mas ligero pero metalico.
In this performance Dame Eva sounds like this performance is from 2007 . Borgioli is swamped by Turner when they sing together. His voice is too light but it is still beautiful ala solo lines.

A genuine Dramatic Soprano unlike the forced, hooty Lyric Spinto Sopranos today.
