While his top and power are incredible he really doesn’t have the vocal dexterity to do justice to all this.

SEHR GUT

¡No mames! ¡Aquí está, el tenor que le da nombre a la calle en la que viví mi niñez! ¡NO MAMES!

La compostezza della voce e la linea di canto. Una meraviglia

Di Stefano, che voce!!!!! Erano gli anni d'oro dei suoi mezzi vocali,e la registrazione effettuata a Roma,ne è la prova. Le opere pucciniane erano consone alla sua voce,e Di Stefano le ha cantate tantissime volte,specialmente il ruolo di Mario Cavaradossi, osannato in tutti i teatri d'opera del mondo. Un tenore leggendario!!!!!👏👏👏

Tucker,che voce meravigliosa,interpreta Andrea Chénier in modo superlativo!!!!👏👏👏

verista

Buen timbre de voz

Tucker in una classica Canzone Italiana ? Promosso a pieni voti !!!! 👍

Great 💯👍

Wowww great!

Tucker did very well in some French roles as in Carmen, Juive and also Africana complete, this and F aust early in his long career.

Taped in house on Cassette back in 1965. Live and rare even if not best sound quality, for then a pirate tape.

Excuse the sound quality of this recording, taped in house on Cassette but very rare.

he later sang it complete at the Met. with Nilsson, 1965, he had sung it in 1949 with Toscanini live and complete for a very early TV performance , that early first TV Aida , did include Nelli and Valdengo.

large powerful Spinto tenor live here from the complete performance and taped in the audience but a Rare recording from the complete performance .

As usual a GREAT cadenza and ending high B from the great Spinto tenor here on live TV .

Excellent early TV Tucker version, later ( in early 1970 ) he sung it on the Ed Sullivan show.

One of his best and "Earliest" LIVE CANIO'S ON TV!!! 1959, age 45 but he could of sung the Role back then at the MET. But he waited until 1970 for Canio complete in house. RIP.

Here the more Lyric of the two big tenor Arias in Chenier and beautifully sung as usual for the great American tenor Richard Tucker. RIP. 1913-1975. America's greatest Spinto tenor .

Bravo Tucker. RIP. 1913-1975

Two of the greatest voices in the world of opera , together at the time , singing a complete live "Chenier" in the SF. Memorial opera house , S.F. Calif. both still in their Prime years , originally cassette taped in house and so not from a Brdcst. but in House tape and Rarely heard. the California public gave them great applause for this live opera performance from the complete opera they sang on that day. --- RIP. Tucker and Tebaldi

Tucker sang 55 times in both live complete opera's and concerts with Soprano Tebaldi but didn't ever studio record with her, most likely because they both usually sang for two different major record labels , Tucker mainly for Columbia and Tebaldi RCA, they got along very well on and off stage and when Tebaldi was asked in an American interview why she called Tucker MR. terrific she said "Because he was" (Actually he had once said to her before they sang a complete opera performance at the old Met. opera house, ) r She said "Richard, how do you feel tonight?" and he answered her, "Renata, I feel Terrific" so the title stuck with her, as she said, "He was terrific" but they didn't sing in Europe or South America together that I know of, Tucker in the 1960's and 1970's sang in both Italy and South America many times (besides his 1947 Gioconda in Verona Italy with a very young Callas, Verona was his Italian debut and also her's. ) P

Without a doubt he was America's greatest tenor at this time and one of the greatest Spinto's of all recorded time. (RIP. Richard Tucker 1913-1975. ) The recorded quality of this aria, taped originally in the opera house on cassette, is not in the best quality for a audio recording, (from the complete performance he was singing in 1965 in S.F. Calif.)

Were these performances recorded live or was the audio dubbed?

Tenor najwyższej klasy. Dziękuję. Szacunek ❤.

un mio non troppo lontano antenato, fiero del mio Prozìo

Non essendo Italiano esprime in modo "ordinario",ma la sua vocalità è talmente sicura da far saltare l'ascoltatore dalla sedia!!! Fuoriclasse

Young and here when he was a Lyric tenor, tlater he became a powerful Spinto and one of the very greatest , never to be forgotten. RIP----- Richard Tucker 1913-1975.

Del Monaco,negli anni 50,del secolo scorso,raggiunse la maturità vocale,raggiungendo interpretazioni memorabili👏👏👏

Cantante stupendo!!!

Muy parecido al timbre de la voz de Caruso y la técnica cómo emite los agudos. Dicen que Piccaver fue rival de Caruso, aunque Piccaver era 11 años más joven que Caruso y dominaba el canto a media voz y la sotto voce mejor que Caruso. Así lo demuestran sus grabaciones, además de que emitía agudos mixtos como Caruso. Saludos,

Thank you for this video! I’ve been borrowing from Mr Peerce’s warm up ever since I saw this🙏♥️

d ' accordissimo , ma cisono anche altri " for ever "

yes he / Tucker opened the 1955 Met. Opera season with this Hoffmann role, anothe r success for him.

This was his first Brdcst. singing the role which always was a good one for him, even later when he was a powerful Spinto tenor and not as Lyric as he was here in 1951. RIP. ----- Richard Tucker 1913-1975.

Orgullo ser el like 600👍

magnificent!!! He opened the Met. season in 1955 with this Brdcst. of Hoffmann and also sang the Brdcst. of it in 1956, but that one was with bass George London.

For me Forza was Tucker's "greatest role" and here his first radio Brdcst. of it, the complete role in 1952 at age 38, he took on that year, 1952, 3 new roles, Forza, Carmen and also Don Carlo as he then was becoming the great Spinto ending with roles like Canio, Juive and also Samson, all live. he also was great In Chenier , this role in both 1952 and again Brdcst. with him in 1956 he sang with the great leonard Warren

A role he never sang, but out of his 31 sung roles and over 700 performances at the Met. opera and hundreds in other major opera houses he did sing many Lyric roles such as Faust and Cosi , plus Marth a Rigoletto ,Boheme magic Flute (live) 0 and also and many opperetta r roles live in Chicago for the radio Chicago theater of the air over WGN radio there , and many of those shows are on you tube. over WGN radio Chicago He once told me after the Met. , Chicago was s his favorite operatic city too sing opera in and he was a very fine and famous Cantor who sang there yearly for important Holiday's , though he was born in Brooklyn NY. At age 84 I do not attend opera anymore, health issues and nobody of great interest for me anymore, but I'm sure some great voices are out there.
