Да,его певческий тон явно предпочтительнее многих других,но мы с ним разобрались и ваше замечание верно,но тенора часто глупы,как ёжики,а Корелли все таки был инженером инженером и очень гармоничной личностью ,что большая редкость в этой сфере,насыщенной психиатрическими клиентами.Он явно недооценен и к нему ещё придут.
Corelli was the strongman of the tenors. At 6’1 200lbs, he was gigantic compared to the others. He was a linebacker with a great voice. His “Quel vino” is riveting yet tender. I can imagine the thrill it must have been to see him live with really good seats.
Ma quando mai si é ascoltato un Turiddu più calato nel personaggio:Corelli presta la sua duttile e meravigliosa voce e il suo approccio fisico a sentimenti come la paura, la quasi certezza che finirà male, la preghiera a Dio e alla madre, il senso di colpa verso Santa,la "balentia "da rispettare comunque...Interprete sublime anche nel repertorio verista (sentitelo anche in Pagliacci)
@@marjorieallworth6172 yes, she had cancer. She made me promise I would sing,"Mama" for her, at her wake. ( The Connie Frances arrangement)), because she always had me sing it to her when I was young. My grandfather taught me all of the old Italian songs. Well. I did it, but I waited until it was just the two of us alone, with my sister there. And we both sang it. One of the hardest things I've ever done.
It's always refreshing to drink in that sound-there was a 10 year period or so when it was simply astounding The many times I heard him live you knew-even in that era of other great tenor voices -you knew you were witnessing operatic history always the excitement of going to one of his performances on any given night he could out do even himself a performer who went for broke took real risks all that coupled with his appearance was a power that few performer ever had
Yes, exactly. As he said in an interview: "The singer's life cost me a great deal. I was full of apprehension and mad at everyone. I was a bundle of nerves, I wasn't eating or sleeping."
I wish there was another one but people like that don't exist today. Family pressure and the obsession of pure northern italian people had for perfection and to be the best at the hardest thing. Even if they were good they thought they were the worst untill performance time. Then its a matter of survival under the spot light, no speakers or pickups just the voice operating on adrenaline, angsiety, self hate, and the fear of not being the best. There's no time to think like that nowadays.
I also love ML very much! Me and my mother watched his films with joy along time ago. What makes FC more attractive only for me perhaps the uncommon darkness of a tenor voice and shining in high notes! Another tenor of today has an extraordinary vibration. You can observe it but I can not judge his talents,because I am not a music professional!
I am not a music professional also! I adore Mario Lanza because of my mother. Later someone warned me to listen to Franco Corelli if I cared voice color. I listen to both but it is somewhat different "Di quella pira" with Franco Corelli. This is completely my opinion! I do not ignore Mario Lanza especially his excellent films!
My fingers didn't do so well with this comment. It was as if Franco became transformed actually into Turridu. With all of his anguish and guilt. Thus goes the best of Italian opera. Bravo Maestro Corelli.
I've never belonged to the cult of Corelli that considers him the greatest tenor, but his performance here is breath taking: powerful, emotional, pitch perfect. A marvelous performance, grande finish - and a wonderful actor. A truly great performance.
What a voice!!!! the most perfect tenor and the most wonderful interpretation of an emotional scene ever. Molto grazie dal vostro cugino britannico con l'anima italiana. Bravo
Вы Правы Франко Корелли Величайший Тенор Всех Времен и Народов ! И Через Тысячи лет ,этот Гениальный Голос ,будет Волновать Будущие Поколения Людей ! E Verissimo Lui Rimasto Per Sempre !!!
ti sei dimenticato: Masini - l'idolo d'un certo Mario Del Monaco Marconi - l'idolo d'un certo Enrico Caruso Merli - l'idolo del mio maestro Paoli - l'idolo di Gino Lauri - Volpi - il maestro d'un certo Franco Corelli e idolo della mia genetazione etc.etc.etc... nella mia lunghissima vita avevo sentito più di 200 tenori fra di loro più di 100 tenori erano meravigliosi e i loro voci erano semplicemente impressionanti. ascolta,cerca,studia,impara...
Vi siete scordati che parliamo di "epoche" diverse? Ogni epoca ha avuto i suoi grandi. Come puoi paragonare Caruso a Corelli o Gigli a Del Monaco...come confrontare la Callas con la Patti o la Melba. Erano tutti bravi e oggi ce li sognamo!
Mamma,mamma, Quel vino è generoso, e certo Oggi troppi bicchieri Ne ho tracannati ... Vado fuori all'aperto. Ma prima voglio Che mi benedite Come quel giorno Che partii soldato. E poi ... mamma ... sentite ... S'io ... non tornassi ... Voi dovrete fare Da madre a Santa, Ch'io le avea giurato Di condurla all'altare. Lucia Perché parli così, figliuol mio? Turiddu Oh! nulla! È il vino che mi ha suggerito! Per me pregate Iddio! Un bacio, mamma… Un altro bacio… addio!
@adremoid Very sharp the evaluation of Kraus and Corelli. Both artists worked very hard to develop their superior techniques. Always striving for that unreachable goal, the perfect voice. They shared two roles, Werther and Romeo e Juliette. Corelli had all the atributes for the complete tenor.
I'm not one to call Corelli the greatest, not while there was a Caruso. But he is sublime here - powerful, emotional, pitch perfect. A tremendous performance.
I'm fascinated by the fact that Corelli could hunch his shoulders when singing because he was super fit. That sound is impossible from a normal body, isn't it, without the stereotypical opera pose of chest puffed out, shoulders back and arms splayed like in cartoons? I think perhaps it's his fault opera singers aspired to act, so they lost the sound.
One of the greatest dramatic tenors of any era.Che bella e grandissima voce!I've heard that the primary reason he retired at a relatively young age was because he didn't want to go through the terrible struggle he had with "nerves and anxiety"throughout his career any longer. "E vero ?,Thats only what I've read.Grazie mille primobaritono for posting this wonderful piece.
Some critics found fault with Corelli during his career . They said he was too loud, held his acuti too long, was self-centered onstage, erc. My take: A great Iralian tenore di forza, with one of the great tenor voices, and which he largely trained by himself; until (and beyond) he could sing a high B flat fff and diminueno to triple pp, while the tone remained vibrant, without using falsetto.
I am familiar with that interview - with Zucker i believe. he also says that he did not have a great voice a that time even though it was loud and exciting. I strongly recommend Jack Livigni's writings on the topic. he really has been able to shed some light on this technique and how it relates to the traditional technique. I am curious as to what makes Lauri Volpi and Melocchi technique similar? is it that they both advocate a low larynx?
Mamma, Quel vino è generoso, e certo Oggi troppi bicchieri Ne ho tracannati ... Vado fuori all'aperto. Ma prima voglio Che mi benedite Come quel giorno Che partii soldato. E poi ... mamma ... sentite ... S'io ... non tornassi ... Voi dovrete fare Da madre a Santa, Ch'io le avea giurato Di condurla all'altare.
Corelli's voice was both big and extremely vibrant. Given that AND limited ontemporary recording technology, he sometimes sounds a little sharp a little sharp and harsh in his studio recordings. He rarely sounds so on his live records -'
I don't think recording techniques in the 1960s were "limited." I think his live recordings are better than studio for other reasons-and don't find him harsh or sharp.
Lucia Perché parli così, figliuol mio? Turiddu Oh! nulla! È il vino che mi ha suggerito! Per me pregate Iddio! Un bacio, mamma ... Un altro bacio ... addio!
Are you serious??? Do you have any more inside info on this? Though fathering a child out of wedlock is not in the catholic tradition in this case who cares. Hopefully if there is an offspring Franco has bestowed his wonderful gift to them. I can hardly wait.

Genuine question here. Is he not miming/lip-synching to his own recording of this? Maybe it's just the black&white visual of it. Clearly, a giant of opera and power which leaves me amazed every time. So, not criticising here. Could have been several reasons for miming if that indeed was the case.
I'm sorry but you are wrong. The melocchi technique did not promote a depressed larynx, if you would define depressed as one lower by the tongue. If, however, you define it as a low larynx than they both did and so did nearly every other great classical singer! Corelli, did not sing the 'Melocchi' technique. he learn't a bit from a Melocchi student but did not become the singer we know now till he studied with Lauri Volpi and became a very different singer.
SO TOUCHING BY THE BEST TENOR❤
Tenori di oggi o presunti tali ascoltate e studiate a lui non arrivere forse fra 2000 anni grande frsnco😢🎉🎉🎉🎉
Да,его певческий тон явно предпочтительнее многих других,но мы с ним разобрались и ваше замечание верно,но тенора часто глупы,как ёжики,а Корелли все таки был инженером инженером и очень гармоничной личностью ,что большая редкость в этой сфере,насыщенной психиатрическими клиентами.Он явно недооценен и к нему ещё придут.
Yea I cried 😢
Grande Mascagni! Grande Corelli!!!
Il verismo cantato con le regole del "belcanto"... morbidezza, sentimento, voce sul fiato e tristezza ...
El más bello de todos los tenores…il divino Corelli. Gracias ❤❤❤❤
Uno de los mas grandes tenores del sigloXX
Un privilegio poder oír y ver una interpretación de esa conmovedora obra. Gracias y saludos. Felicitaciones. 🇨🇱⚓️🇨🇱
TROOOOPO GRAAAAANDE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Insuperable! Ningún tenor moderno, siendo buenos, llegan a esta pureza de voz
Corelli was the strongman of the tenors. At 6’1 200lbs, he was gigantic compared to the others. He was a linebacker with a great voice. His “Quel vino” is riveting yet tender. I can imagine the thrill it must have been to see him live with really good seats.

So thrilling, emotional. Makes to cry
Did anyone else cry during this? Remembering my own Italian mother.
Did she love you?
That's important

Yes, exactly. As he said in an interview: "The singer's life cost me a great deal. I was full of apprehension and mad at everyone. I was a bundle of nerves, I wasn't eating or sleeping."

Unico

amazing voice.......no comment........superb
What a voice color it is! Can anybody with this voice color come to earth again?
Halit Gulcan in God's time!!!
Halit Gulcan , yes, Mario Lanza.
Only Mario Lanza had more beautiful voice, he had a unique color voice.
I also love ML very much! Me and my mother watched his films with joy along time ago. What makes FC more attractive only for me perhaps the uncommon darkness of a tenor voice and shining in high notes!
Another tenor of today has an extraordinary vibration. You can observe it but I can not judge his talents,because I am not a music professional!

Cult? Such slander.

Jeez. He was really great, wasn't he? It's as if Franco Corelli was a tually the
The most amazing voice ever heard!
Fantastic.
CSODÁS CORELLI.....
Bien!
I would have married him and had had loads of his babies... Hopefully one of them would have inherited some of his skill and beauty!!!
Where to enlist to become the Italian "mama"?
Corelli is not my favorite tenor - not as long as there was a Caruso - but he is superb here, powerful and emotional. Wonderful stuff.
I'm fascinated by the fact that Corelli could hunch his shoulders when singing because he was super fit. That sound is impossible from a normal body, isn't it, without the stereotypical opera pose of chest puffed out, shoulders back and arms splayed like in cartoons?
