BENIAMINO GIGLI LESSON

[@leonardevans8691]

Gigli was unique. He was a great technician which enabled him to sing for such a long time with spontaneity and so many colours. I am thrilled each time I hear him.

[@salvoferraro6976]

Sua maestà Gigli,favoloso anche con i suoni aperti...

[@afahsieh172]

Even in a movie, Gigli can give a class.

[@CARLOORLANDI1]

What a great video, he teaches so much in only 22 seconds, he is one of my favourite tenors for sure! GREAT GIGLI 👏👏👏 Thanks for uploading it!

[@seaquest8]

Haha...Maestro Gigli says, "Do it like THIS..." If only this generation could live to hear someone who could.

[@cadaverdog1424]

Amen!! Gigli’s placement was perfection. Most today sing too far back/zero correct mask resonance.

[@matthewamori7801]

@@cadaverdog1424 The idea of "mask resonance" always baffles me. You don't place the sound in the mask. You let the throat naturally open through a relaxed breath and you essentially speak, but speak loudly and with more overall space. Everyone I ever hear "place" the sound in the mask always ends up with an unpleasantly nasal tone or with a voice so small that it barely makes it past the first row let alone shaking the back row. The same with singing too far back. If the sound is too far back then chances are you're manipulating the throat to be forced open and then the sound becomes woofy instead of nasally but a similar acoustical problem occurs.

Fantastico Gigli anche quando cerca di sbagliare

[@hrbooksmusic7878]

… e quasi quasi non ci riesce… Anche quando cerca di sbagliare è ancora molto meglio della maggioranza degli altri cantanti!

oh my god.. that's so short but so effective!!!!

[@shakarikiLove]

his explanation is quite clear and no hasitation before the einsatz, outstanding!! does anyone know the name of this film?

[@afahsieh172]

是"惠靈頓牛排"嗎？

Basically, he is correcting they way all modern opera teachers teach. lol

How many languages did he speak ?

[@justhuman1681]

У меня есть приятель педагог по вокалу, познакомились в театре, когда в хоре работали, выглядит и поет как Джилли) тоже природник, тоже не понимает тех, кто говорит что пение это сложно и что там вообще уметь))) Но я тут не соглашусь с маэстро) понятно что нужно легатто) но грудь это основа даже для тенора) Кьяроскуро + скило + опущенная гортань + стон, как писал в своей книге учитель Корелли и Дель Монако

[@BG-kq6cn]

Unfortunately the singers are asked to sing exactly the opposite 🎭 these days.

"A voz sobe e SQUILLA menos" - Franco Corelli

[@rogerengblom5061]

If Corelli have learned from him he never even start sing ,pitty he never learned singinging only shouting

[@wookinooki9023]

i prefer the second one. LOL

[@carminelappano7710]

It certainly is not "not good", as he himself says! One of the greatest skills Gigli had more than any other tenor (in my opinion), was the ability to sing in so many different ways. His technical mastery allowed him to always maintaining sublime tone and control. His musicality is unmatched by anyone to this day.. incredible.

[@alessiozanetti4367]

Io penso che fra i due esempi la differenza non sta nel suono in sé ma solo nel modo. Nel senso, nel primo esempio Gigli mantiene la fluidità dell'emissione che da sola crea il canto mentre nel secondo esempio lui fa direttamente la scansione sillabica col risultato non di suoni aperti ma bensì fatti direttamente e quindi slegati fra loro

[@creutzfeldtjakob7]

Not when every phrase is given so much accent the legatto is lost, he should at least flow freely even if the sound is big

[@thephilosopher666]

I prefer to trusr Gigli, not you. If he says "not good" - it's not good.
