Franco Corelli: A te, O cara ( Il Puritani)

by Vicenzo Bellini, Corelli sings bel canto

[@ian.marais1202]

Wow the one and only . The best tenor of all times. The ease, the perfect technique, perfect breath control. Sends chills down one's spine. Oh and the absolute beauty of the voice.

[@marcomichelis6001]

Ha mai ascoltato Giacomo Lauri Volpi o Giuseppe Di Stefano?

[@paolabrianti721]

Grande, immortale Franco Corelli!

[@angalafan]

Ho visto Corelli colla Callas a Parigi nella Norma, qualche anni fa ... certo, e mi avevo già all' epoca impressionato tanto fisicamente e vocalmente. Però Pollione non gli da nessuna difficoltà davvero, invece in quest' aria di Bellini, appanaggio dei tenori leggeri, sfortunamente, é assolutamente sorprendente ! Se lo stile non è perfetto, il legato è un poco rigido, canta sul soffio che sembra sensa fine. Bravo Franco !

[@prototropo]

This A Te O Cara is even better, by a lot, than his younger performances. Who could not fall in love with that guy?

[@Saavedra99]

Better than his younger performances? He did never sing the entire role, and did never sing the aria in any concert. He did never ever sing any part of the role live.

[@gemmadestate3216]

Un'interpretazione unica per perfezione e bellezza...UNICA!!!

[@donquijote9058]

No me importa lo que digan, la mejor version que escuche lejos! que sentimiento! incluso mejor que la de pavarotti que es , a mi gusto, muy buena, GRANDE CORELLI!!!

[@giorgiomartinico3774]

Vincenzo Bellini + Franco Corelli = HEAVEN!!!!!!!

[@Ariadne7710]

I don't mind the half tone down. As you say it is a great performance for someone with his size of voice. What I love most about Corelli is that beautiful all enveloping sound which live was to die for. I love MDM and Pippo also but they had a different quality to their singing. Corelli had that ability to draw you in and seduce you with that glorious gorgeous sound.

[@lucianozanella5833]

Voce incomparabile : lirico-spinta-drammatica , con la misurata pastosità e l'acuto rotondo e capace di inerpicarsi in un salendo senza fine e dolcissimo . Grandissimo Corelli

[@ИринаКунцевич-ы1б]

Хочется слушать бесконечно! Во всех партиях ВЕЛИКОЛЕПЕН.

[@wetpaint07]

his voice lifts my soul, absolutely beautiful.

[@hazelssister]

The first time I ever heard his voice along with my mother back in 1961 we both agreed right then and there that Franco was the best and no one has surpassed him since .

[@1906sfjd]

This is Corelli at or near his best. Amazing finish: that a voice that deep and resonant can hit and hold those high notes is remarkable.

[@donzan9]

Amen and amen!!! His ringing thrilling voice is one of a kind!! Having a combination of such a great voice and great looks - How rare is that?!!!

[@edejan]

That voice! So different from other tenors! So rich, so deep, so masculine. He is without a doubt in his own class! Such a bravura performance that tears at the heart!

[@chrisryan9071]

edejan Oh, I wish he had sung much more with Sutherland! Their two voices were matched in majesty ...

[@edejan]

Chris Ryan I would love to hear him singing this as a duet. I miss the female part which Joan did so beautifully with Pavarotti.

[@elreydeldo]

la voz de este hombre es extraordinaria verdaderamente, tiene la misma belleza, potencia y vibrato en todo su registro, desde la nota más grave hasta los sobreagudos que parece dar sin esfuerzo alguno. Un fuera de serie.

[@palymusic]

Non resta che alzarsi in piedi. Standing ovation per Franco Corelli... voce possente, squillante eppure perfettamente piegata a servizio della splendida melodia belliniana... che dolcezza virile che umana partecipazione , quale empito straordinario nell'espansione verso l'acuto. Un sovracuto da brividi. Commovente e allo stesso tempo entusiasmante. Grazie.

[@lucianozanella5833]

sono perfettamente d'accordo conte .

Non ti stanchi mai di riascoltare questa voce sublime. Così romantica eppure così travolgente. ❤❤❤

Meraviglioso ... tenore completo, voce colossale che diventa romantica e di grazia... tecnica stratosferica. L'opera italiana è immortale, ma se cantata da queste voci... diventa leggendaria ...

Proprio cosi!!!!!!

[@Sebastiano-v8i]

Sono un “ Corelliano” e giuro a volte mi commuovo specialmente quando sento il pubblico della Scala cosa ha provato quando cantò il Poliuto con la Callas.

[@etelkanaccari]

Io mi commuovo sempre! È il SUO cuore che Ci parla attraverso la SUA VOCE MERAVIGLIOSA. Questo Lui cercava e questo ha ottenuto!

[@etelkanaccari]

Why don't we proclaim him as the greatest voice that has ever lived. He had an incredible voice color and high frequency. Opera lovers know him well but the others also must know his talents!

[@pauloferreira4149]

If he had "press" like the 3 tenors did, people would be talking about him as they do of the trio. Simply magnificent, deserved more praise than what he has. It was only when I started studying Opera that I knew of this wonderful man.

Extraordinary singing - he is the best tenor I have ever heard. He is able to imbue his singing with great feeling.

[@martindogo]

Creo ke el mejor analisis de este video lo hace Alberichnibelungo,pero en pocas palabras creo ke el tema aca es ke,Corelli justamente imprecionava por el caudal de voz y su timbre pesado pero con armonicos claros de fondo,sin embargo,el ke un tenor di forzza como era el pueda colocar tan bellamente ese do- de pecho es un logro en si mismo,grande Corelli

[@jamesmorse7837]

Yes, perfect legato, so musical in his interpretation. His diminuendo is also so beautiful. A claim to be the greatest tenor in the Italian repertoire

[@2007nobody]

Corellli was/is one of the best spinto tenors ever. I agree up to that. All other isn't but exaggeration.

Teljesen egyetértek. Nem felejtem el, hogy ez volt az első ária. amit hallottam Corellitől. Majd kiestem a székből, amikor meghallottam ezt a csodálatosan férfias tenort, teljesen lenyűgözött. Később láttam, hogy ráadásul milyen szép férfi volt, ez így együtt felülmúlhatatlan kombináció.

[@bjorling4ever]

As always, fantastic rendition. His technique, however does not leave no room for desire. It might be true to some listners that his fortamento adds a dramatic effect to aria, but to me personally, it makes me wonder if he has habitual resort to fortamento to produce high note with ease, concealing his kind of struggle. Even considering that, no one would deny that he is one of the greatest tenors in last century.

[@naomikass841]

Yea ... right

Of course this role is not for him- of course he would never have done this onstage- of course, of course- but who gives a phuque. What a voice!! I heard him live many times ~ Those were the days.
