Tito Gobbi "Si puo, si pou?" Pagliacci

[avadelacruz]

My teacher sang with Maestro Gobbi and he said when you stood next to him the sound was not very big but when you are in the audience it was a very resonant voice, he said the same about Christoff, he also said the sound seemed to start 2 metres in front of the singers, WHAT PROJECTION!

There are three videos of this aria on YT, each one is a masterful interpretation showing how, right through his career, Gobbi used a full range of vocal colours to provide a musical as well as a dramatic response to the inner meaning of the composer's creation. Gobbi is a verista, he aims at the raw truth in the music but never forgets that he is expressing himself through the art of singing. He transcends his technical shortcomings a makes something timeless.
