[rickchristman60]

we want yaeche, sloman, silver voicemechanics from grandi tenori

[elpiconeroinabsentio]

Maybe it's:

3. Antonio Cortis

7. Ferruccio Tagliavini

Or they could both be Tagliavini or one of the other pasti: Sagnarelli or Pizzoccheri or Tripoline or Cavatappi or Elicoidali, yes, yes, Elicoidali! No, it'd Maccheroncelli!

[AfroPoli]

@elpiconeroinabsentio Nutsolini.

[elpiconeroinabsentio]

8. Doppia Domingo

9. Roberto Alagna

10. Bryn Terfel (MAKE IT STOP!!!)

11. Hermann Prey as Eisenstein as Wotan singing a line from the end of Die Walküre from a performance of Die Fledermaus at Covent Garden New Years Eve 1984.

@elpiconeroinabsentio Wow, impressive. Good to have you back! :) I wonder though what makes you think that Campora is one of the most recorded tenors in history...

[elpiconeroinabsentio]

1. Ezio Pinza, Boris Godunov

2. The other Ivan, Ivan Petrov, Beethoven, 9th Pastry, Ode to Cupcakes

3. Ferruccio Tagliavini, Massenet, Werther, Ah! Non mi ridestar

4. Giovanni Marrrrrrrrrrrrrtinelli, Friedrich von Flotow, Martha, M'appari

5. Ettore Bastianini (I stopped at the hint; barely think it's him), something Neapolitanish from Chicago

6. Maria Caniglia (or maybe a Stefan Zucker-Fedora Barbieri alien hybrid), Aida, Verdi

7. Almost di Stefano, almost Schipa, so probably Campora.

10 Fischer-Deiskau???? If it's right it's very unusual, because here the voice is so dirty that it doesn't fit with the elegant Fischer-Dieskau

[igormorosow]

3 the young Gigli??

[igormorosow]

1. Ezio Pinza? 2. Paul Robeson 3. Volpi???? 4. The one who lived in Canada? 5. Leo Nucci 6. Maria Caniglia ??? 7.Giuseppe Campora 8.Domingo 9.Roberto Alagna 10. A German, that's obvious, but who? Nevertheless the voice sounds like Hampson, but is his German that perfect?????? 11. Hermann Prey

[xav71176]

11 must be Hermann Prey, but not really as Wotan, as Eisenstein ;)

[belcantist]

1. Pinza 2. Robeson 3. Merli ?? 4. Kiepura 5. Bechi ?? 6. Milanov 7. Ferruccio Tagliavini 8. Domingo 9. Alagna 10. Terfel 11. Prey ??

[AfroPoli]

Some really good guesses here! Impressive.

Hey, COGNAC, where are you? What happened to your account?

[elpiconeroinabsentio]

@AfroPoli Deleted in a tempestuous rage, and how good it was!

[FarfalloneAmoroso]

Is nr 11 Hermann Prey?

[ElisabettaVS]

6 is not Sutherland... 10 could really be Terfel.. hm...

[FarfalloneAmoroso]

1. Chalyapin Fyodor 2. Ivan Rebroff 3. Feruccio Tagliavini 4.Franco Bonisolli 5. Titta Ruffo 6. reminds me of Maria Callas 7. Nicolai Gedda 8. Placido Domingo. Is it possible that he sings both roles? 9. Roberto Alagna 10. Bryn Terfel 11.?

[maxlorenz24]

I agree on n°1 and n°4.

8: could it be Villazón and Domingo singing together? Awful night it must have been. N°5 Bastiannini at its last epoc?? 9.- Alagna?

Sorry...

[TsarBovov]

@maxlorenz24 Bastianini... of course! That's SO his timbre. Where did I have my ears...

[TsarBovov]

Uhm LOL, I am certainly not a straniero to you, my fellow Tsar! I will try anyway.

1. Chaliapin in his best role 2. Maxim Mikhailov 3. Gino Sinimberghi, nice try... 4. Martinelli 5. Bechi 6. Sutherland? 7. Kraus?? Ay ay... 8. Villazon and Tezier 9. Wtf... is this an opera singer at all? 10. Fischer Dieskau 11. Too difficult for me and funny clue. Help!!!
