  • wow! Beautiful performance!!! Thank you tomfroekjaer for sharing this video.

  • Amazing! He actually got to sing in a mic

  • @Rodolpho262 Microphones weren't invented in his time. But he didn't need one; I have heard that he can project his voice through a large concert hall. :)

  • Do you have a WWI benefit photo with Al Jolson?

    Thanks.

  • @binghlcrosby: no, sorry....

  • @binghlcrosby: no, sorry - don't have any WWI benefit photo with Al Jolson.

  • XD I like the description for this. The picture is really good, too. :) I would've loved to see him in concert. What an experience that would be! :)

  • Dear Tom, Wow! I just heard this for the first time. It's wonderful. I guess because it is live his presence is so vivid. Thanks again.

  • @goodboybuddy1: Dear James. The picture is misleading, sorry, - it's from a benefit (WW I). Sometimes difficult for me to find fitting pictures... This recording was done in the studio, but I believe when Enrico sang one could/can always feel his presence.

    Geraldine Farrar writes in her biography that she, the first time she stood on stage with Caruso, forgot to sing as she had broken into tears from the beauty of Caruso's voice. I think it was not (only) the voice, but his presence/empathy.

  • @tomfroekjaer That's OK Tom, It's a cool picture and he's wonderful here, whatever the reason. Thanks for replying!

  • @goodboybuddy1: most welcome, James.

  • Wow I never heard him sing in English, thanks again!!! What a great and unique talent.

    And to diagonalley101: Caruso will always live through his music, he won't be forgotten.

  • Thank you for posting this. It means alot to my family that Enrico's voice is still being enjoyed.

  • You are very welcome, diagonalley101. Your Great uncle is considered the greatest tenor of all times. I've uploaded more than 100 arias/songs to YT and made a website to his tribute.

    Hundred of thousands with ages from 13 to more than 90 have commented on the videos. The beauty of his voice - even in these rather poor recordings - still bring people to tears.

  • Caruso apparently spoke seven languages - including Neapolitan English.
