I don't know about first, but Jussi holds that last 'ce' in both 1944 recordings 🤔

i have the 1. complete Record of Turandot from 1937 with Francesco Merli its wonderful

Thats SINGING, absolute great , Francesco Merli

Maravilloso Que cantantes . Esto es grandioso. Eso era cantar. Estremece oírlos. Grecia. Gracias.

"Mine at last".... what?? Thats not the translation. What am I mssing here?

Superb - two incandescent artists. Greatly admired by the likes of Callas and Corelli, and the influences are palpable.

The real inventor of minimalism.

Se si pensa che era appena finita la guerra, è ancora più commovente

WHOA!!! why can t our times have TRUE great singers and musicians like them anymore!!!!?? IT all makes the hair stand....in AWE...soft or loud...TRUE singing ...even if we can t all understand the languages..the VOICE and music immerse the listener in the EXPERIENCE...!! THANK YOU for sharing... !!

So pleased to hear the wonderful Reizen sing in Italian.

"Her voice was not classically beautiful"????? You must be the only person on this earth to think that.

Grandiosa versione.🎉

Merikanto deserves much more attention and more music made available.

SImply astounding-one of the truly great bass voices on record - I never tire of listening to him.

😂Пел прекрасный тенор..Слава солнечной Италии.😊

Ob die eine oder andere Darstellung verschiedenster phantastischer Sängerinnen in dieser Rolle die überzeugendste Darstellung ist/ sind, bleibt eine rein persönliche Geschmacksempfindung. Bei der vielgerühmten Aufnahme aus 1944 unter Lovro von Matacic stört mich das durchaus beeindruckende, aber geziert wirkende, durchaus gewollte Vibrato. Mich persönlich haben die Aufnahmen einer Ljuba Welitsch aus dem Jahr 1949 unter Fritz Reiner extrem begeistert.

Esaltanti le scelte del regista e dello scenografo che non tradiscono il libretto spregiudicato e smitizzante del geniale Busenello I due interpreti maggiori, a dir poco, sono interpreti perfetti dell'opera sublime del divin Claudio.

una pagina musicale storica

Meravigliosa pagina, meravigliosa esecuzione.

A primeira vez que eu ouvi o Requiem de Verdi foi em 1985 num LP com gravação de Arturo Toscanini. Até hoje, considero uma das melhores gravações. Me apaixonei tanto que não cansava de ouvir. O disco era emprestado e antes de devolvê-lo fiz uma gravação em duas fitas Basf 90 minutos. Um ano depois, ganhei um ingresso para assistir ao concerto do Requiem de Verdi no Palácio das Artes em Belo Horizonte. A soprano era Celine Imbert. Perfeita!

How can evil be so beautiful…..

FANTASTISCH

Fascinating, thank you.

PERFECTION!

@CloneHat asks "Is he an octave down, or even two? The singer here is a Tenor not a Castrato-Soprano, and his natural voice is one octave lower than the original score. At the time the opera was composed, Tenor voices were used mostly for secondary roles. The leading roles were taken by clarion voiced, adult male Castrati; who were either Sopranos or Altos. Today's male Sopranos and Altos are "Falsettists". Because they never use their full voices, (which are really tenor, bass or baritone) they can never achieve the power or brilliance we read about of the finest Castrati. So a choice has to be made between using a relatively weak, lightweight "false" Soprano singing in the original octave, or a more substantial and expressive real Tenor singing one octave lower. Much depends on the quality of the individual singer. Here the stylish Eric Tappy uses his handsome voice to great effect and provides a more than satisfying solution.

Heartfelt and talent oriented. That was truly beautiful. Something you can't fake.

💖👍🙏

WOW -- lovely and moving and WOW -- this song is always deeply moving, but this is MAGNIFICENT!

The only recorded singer who stayed faithful to Puccini's score, and with a voice and expression to match. Legendary.

Didn’t the nazis love Wagner ? Just saying 😮

❤❤❤❤

Thomas Allen as well.. 3:42 such luscious orchestration with his glorious voice!

Das - und und nur so etwas - verdient den Namen Kunst. Danke für das Einstellen dieser erhabenen Menschheitsklage, die die Beschränktheit des irdischen Erfassungsspielraumes ausdrückt, die nicht fähig ist, die Grenzen des Verstandes zu überwinden. Das kann nur der unsterbliche Geist. Nur die Materie, der irdische Körper ist aus "Staub" gemacht ist und wird wieder zu "Staub" verfallen, aber die Seele, der Geist ist "kein Kind der Welt", er strebt zurück in seine Heimat, das Paradies. Und - auch Tiere haben eine Seele - sie gehen nicht "nach unten". Aber seit "Corona" wurde vielen klar, wie sehr wir uns an der Natur und dem Lebensraum der Tiere versündigt haben. Allen ein Gesegnetes 2023!

Cigna Merli Olivero,tempi di goduria, ora quasi il deserto, di già se si apprezzano i fenomeni da baraccone microfonati,rifugiamoci nel passato

The language may be Russian, but the technique is pure Italian bel canto. The tone always sailing on the breath, never pushed by it.

С тенором мне нравится больше всего.

This sounds like my father

Profondeur et amplitude puissance et projection comme un jet maîtrise faisant monter et descendre une balle de ping pong ( exercices de vocalises ..) détachement des notes quasi scandees et un legato impressionnant avec de la virtuosité dans la diction . une couleur et un timbre rond et caverneux sans vibrato ,un bonheur .

Mio padre ha conosciuto Toscanini xché lavorava alla Scala e mi raccontava alcuni aneddoti che lo riguardavano in quanto alla Tebaldi era la sua preferita

Bravi!

Entre los tenores dramáticos italianos, Merli es el antecesor de del Monaco, quien también así termina Nessun dorma en su versión completa de Turandot con Inkhe Borg y Renata Tebaldi. He sabido que Nessun dorma no tenía el si bemol Vinceró!, como tampoco el do de pecho Che gelida manina, ni los dos do de pecho de Di quella pira, lo que no tiene mayor importancia, porque los cantantes han modificado notas y pasajes de las partituras que cantan, sin que los compositores se molesten. De esta forman completan estas óperas. Así, el final de Nessun dorma que ahora escuchamos con Corelli, Pavarotti y otros tenores, no lo hizo MIgual Fleta que estrenó el papel, sino que fue Giacomo Lauri-Volpi quien, con su deslumbrante voz, lo agregó tal como quedó sellado para la posteridad. Saludos,

1937 recording. Wonder what mic they are using. 58?

Perfetto

EIN ABSOLUTES TRAUMPAAR DER OPERNGESCHICHTE EINE DER BESTEN AUFNAHMEN DIESES DUETTS

Fantastic. I thought I had heard everything Janacek ever composed. Delightful work.

cigna grandissima maestra

One of the most atmospheric opera overtures in the canon.
