Mario Del Monaco - La fleur que tu m'avais jetée ... Tribute to mezzo - sopranos

[peteradaniel]

The picture is not of Sonia Ganassi, but Marianne Cornetti. Ponselle is not a mezzo soprano and neither is Antonacci.

Interesting how the french makes him bring the voice forward & he is as close to he ever was at actual singing. A pitch problem here & there but still a good performance for hi. I bet he was great in the final scene.

But

Rosa Ponselle

Violeta Urmana

Terrific video! Nice to see the mezzos get the recognition they deserve. Thank you.

[racheleleeba]

Beautifully done. Bravo, rosen10kavalier!

[caspiman]

Nice, thank you very much!

But what about Fedora Barbieri? Rita Gorr? Ebe Stignani? Adriana Lazzarini? Irina Arkhipova?

[rosen10kavalier]

@caspiman Thank you for valuable informations. I didn't know them and will take note of them in next video making .

[Aetion]

@rosen10kavalier Well, one cannot include all mezzo-sopranos, however, one of the most fascinating for me is Elena Cernei.

Thank you for the nice video.

[rosen10kavalier]

@Aetion Thank you for kind comment. Sorry I didn't know Elena Cernei.

[Aetion]

@rosen10kavalier I’m glad that you know her now. Another great mezzo-soprano was Elena Nicolai (1905-1993), one of the leading mezzo-sopranos for twenty years at La Scala. So, you can now modify your list and by removing the names of Ponselle, Urmana and Antonacci, who were/are sopranos and replacing them with the ones of Cernei and Nocolai and Arkhipova.

[sospello]

I love the mezzo voice and so this is especially welcome to me--I am saving to my favorites right away. Grazie.
