[Funghiallapanna]

Nice memories. I saw them together many times (what a handsome stage couple & what great voices) in TOSCA, ADRIANA, BOHEME & GIOCONDA.

you can.t get much better than this!!!

Tebaldi was the greatest interpreter of Mimi at any age.

[johngotwalt]

Corelli was totally self-taught

[aaroncaruso]

@johngotwalt I dont think that is entirely true. He did work with Lauri-Volpi and possibly briefly with Melocchi. At the end of the day, arent all singers self taught, though? They say the stage is the best teacher. Cheers.

@aaroncaruso

Many singers have to find their way by themself, so did Corelli. Tebaldi instead found a great teacher like Carmen Melis, one of Puccini's favourite sopranos. Tebaldi said all she knew about Opera was from her teacher Carmen Melis.

[minnie888444]

I agree about Tebaldi, my other comment saying "that is not true" is about Corelli's studies and it was posted for another user.

[Andante735]

Ah ok, thanks :)

[tebaldicallas]

I love Corelli but Tebaldi was a more refined singer.

[goldie0800]

@tebaldicallas - Perhaps for some Corelli's voice might not seem precise or impeccable but his gifts as a tenor were abundantly obvious, exuberant and overflowing with a wealth of emotion. What more can one ask for in grand opera than such a grand voice as Corelli's! His singing touches the heart, so my cup is filled.

- from an obvious fan of Corelli.

[tebaldicallas]

@goldie0800 They were the best looking couple - Both tall and good looking with powerful voices.

Italian bite in their singing - they sand with passion.

Stratas was no slouch either. The 1982 Carreras Stratas Boheme directed by Zef at the met is my absolute favorite.
