Franco Corelli - Che gelida manina (La Boheme) Tokyo 1971

[@marlenehartley7742]

Incredible!!!! No other tenor ever born has ever been able to diminuendo on that high note!

[@QenaitheCustodianGuard]

Salvatore fisichella does this piece even better imo.

[@kid926]

Corelli tra i cantanti di tutto il mondo lui é tra i numero UNO

[@mbrackeva]

What an amazing talent. He makes it look so easy. And so I think "hey, I can do that". And then I try. And then the police comes to pick me up again...

[@ransomcoates546]

Most people call his greatest year 1964, when he was in his mid 40’s. A tenor like Pavarotti peaked much earlier, but Corelli had a lot of vocal issues to deal with before achieving the status of a very great singer, which he certainly was. But 1971 is late Corelli and he retired just a few years later.

[@edithrodriguezsoto1260]

Best comment ever! 😂😂😂😂

[@mbrackeva]

@@ransomcoates546 Yeah, he started singing late, over thirty. But his career as competition swimmer must have given him a headstart regarding lung capacity and breath control. Anyway, he retired when still big, which is more than can be said about others of his generation or later.

I fear there will never be a better tenor than Corelli, because there is no room for any improvement on his work. This is a great example, but, subjectively, it is even more impossible to better his rendition of Celeste Aida.. ..un trono vicino al sol...

[@jacocilliers2145]

Agreed as well as his rendition of E lucevan le stelle

[@palpalonpalpalon]

people can be better than him. but the problem is that not everyone works hard enough... to be better than any artist, you need to work harder than them, Corelli worked insanely hard, not anyone can work as hard as legends like him, there will be someone as good as him, if they just work harder than him, which i highly doubt anyone will in the next 100 years.

[@joelweisberg]

It is impossible to name the greatest tenor of all time. It is possible however, to list 10 wonderful tenors. Surely, Corelli belongs in that list. And in my opinion, near the top. His high B was effortless. Riposa in pace maestro.

I was a teen when I would hear Peter Allen announce Franco Corelli would headline a Metropolitan Opera Saturday broadcast. My father listened to the Metropolitan Opera broadcasts throughout my childhood. I listened, but never saw him live. When I took voice lessons, my teacher would use Corelli as a model of supreme technique.

[@christineforzano9372]

He was my Dads idol and in later life his best friend. A wonderful man!

[@quintovallei4653]

Every time I hear him sing I realize how much he adjusted as he aged. At this point he may have lost that extra range but his voice and interpretation were still better than any tenor I have heard both past and present. His breath control at the end of this aria is amazing.

[@MichaelDG2023]

To think he was in his “prime” almost 20 years before this and listen to him! Better than any tenor at any age!

One of the most dramtic areas of Bel Canto, performed live with the best voices of the time lending some great passion to a very dramatic dilema ... he's betrayed his country for the woman he loves and is willing to die for it; Amneris puts everything on the line to save him if only Radames were to give up Aida and yet he does not and what's more he's happily willing to die for his crime and for Aida. It does not get better than that. Great looking performers ... Franco was what I envisioned a Radames to look like, young, tall, fit, handsome and a beautiful voice 💖💖💖
