Well- seeing how you asked.. Carl Wilson of the Beach Boys had a voice that was described as 'angelic' ..one of his most iconic performances was "I Can Hear Music"-- written for the Ronettes to perform but his rendition is by far the best. He is no longer with us, passed from cancer.. RIP

Franco Corelli said in an interview that the recordings can't really tell you just how beautiful Gigli's voice was live in the theater. Corelli said it was like an angel was singing and Gigli's mezza voce or falsetto could "fill the theater" and no one else had this. It was something unique to Gigli

If he hadn't sobbed, it wouldn't be Gigli. If Ray Charles didn't have a tear in his voice, it wouldn't be Ray Charles. People love Gigli because of the abundant feeling with which he sings - his ability to invoke the deepest emotions within us; an ability to clench a fist in our chests. And when Gigli overflows, he causes us to overflow too. That's a beautiful, human feeling and not mechanical or contrived in any way. Gigli can make me weep whereas Pavarotti can't, despite his power & technique.

BENIAMINO GIGLI Quando Beniamino Gigli, célebre tenor italiano, esteve na Igreja De Nossa Senhora da Glória, onde foi agraciado com um título Honorário da Irmandade, igual ao galo: pela manhã carcareja, Cantou as músicas que fizeram em sua vida um novo capítulo. Músicas sacras, no ambiente eletivo, lembradas em ladainha, Foram cantadas por Beniamino Gigli, acompanhado pelo coro Dirigido pelo maestro Jonas Travassos, com sinos e campainha, Refletindo dentro e fora da Igreja, ambientes de sacro decoro. Maestro Jonas Travassos, no restaurante Health´s, bem situado Na Rua Senador Dantas, em frente do Banco do Brasil, a sede da Academia de Letras, ambiente por nós muito bem honrado, Cantou, em voz suave, ária "Je crois entendre encore", da ópera "Os pescadores de pérolas", de Bizet, a música que não excede A beleza manifestada por Beniamino Gigli e que hoje prospera. (*) (*) FERNANDO PINHEIRO, presidente da Academia de Letras dos Funcionários do Banco do Brasil. - BENIAMINO GIGLI (poesia), de Fernando Pinheiro. - in O mundo de Morfeu, de Fernando Pinheiro.

No one had a mezza voce quite like Gigli... well maybe Tito Schipa. But Gigli is my favorite because he can bust out powerful high notes, too. Even in his late 60's singing live at Buenos Aires. Opera would be popular again if he or anyone could sing like this! (I don't count those tenors who perform with 3 microphones in front of their faces)
@SushiBrightblade8 жыл бұрын
I would agree, his Cavalleria with Mascagni conducting while excellent isn't the same as DiStefano powering down the notes so that your chair rattled. For mezza voce and pianissimo, I go for Gigli. For over all quality of tone and ease of singing, probably Bjoerling is the guy I want to sing like.

I absolutely believe Corelli. Gigli's mezza voce was completely unique. If you look at the sound through a spectrograph you see that even his softest singing had a tremendous amount of energy in the high resonances that the human ear responds to, something few, if any, singers ever have accomplished.

Gigli ha il dono di farti venire il groppo in gola, perché oltre alla voce melodiosa cantava con il cuore. La sua tecnica declamar cantando, trasmetteva sempre emozioni infinite. Guardarlo mentre canta è come vedere un usignolo che posato su di un ramo, allunga il collo proteso verso l'alto e gonfiando il petto emette i suoi gorgeggi, meravglia della natura, nessuno come Gigli riusciva con maestria a passare da repertorio elegiaco, a parti drammatiche da lirico spinto. Dopo Caruso, troppo lontano nel tempo, è la summa dei tenori e della lirica. Che il cielo lo tenga in gloria🙏🙏🎶🎶

His 1935 HMV recording of this song, where he didn't sing in messa voce was not nearly as good as this one. My favorite Gigli rendition is from a live concert he gave in the mid 30s, where he addresses the audience in Italian and English at the end. It was from an LP my father had called 'Beniamino Gigli recital' released by Everest/Scala Records. Date was not included but I lost the LP a long time ago and I wish I could hear it again. If anyone has any info I would appreciate it.

No one sings this better, not even di Stefano. The way he caresses the phrases at 1:39 is incredible. Who ranked him 3rd after Bjorling and Pavarotti? You must be crazy. Bjorling didn't have an Italian voice and Pavarotti certainly was not a greater Italian lyric than Gigli.
