Il tenore dei tenori.Grande interprete verdiano, al suo nome è legato il ruolo di Otello, ma molti lo ricordano come splendido Andrea Chènier, Des Grieux, Manrico e tutti quei ruoli che richiedono il tenore drammatico per eccellenza.E' la solita storia del pastore
TESTO
Il povero ragazzo
voleva raccontarla, e s'addormi.
C'è nel sonno l'oblio.
Come l'invidio!
Anch'io vorrei dormir cosi,
nel sonno almeno l'oblio trovar!
La pace sot cercando io vò:
vorrei poter tutto scordar.
Ma ogni sforzo è vano... Davanti
ho sempre di lei il dolce sembiante!
La pace tolta è sempre a me...
Perché degg'io tanto penar?
Lei!... sempre mi paria at cor!
Fatale vision, mi lascia!
mi fai tanto male!
Ahimè!

  • WTF??!!! "The only last tenor after Caruso".!?!?!?!?!?

    Very interesting. I had never listened to a singer who could do this with the voice! It is wonderful how he adapted it to the role. Listen to how he got his dark timbre hidden!!! This has knocked me out. Really stunning. All Federico's purity. Wonderful.

    Straight to the favourites!!

  • I think one of the most beautiful del Monaco’s arias on YT.

    Thank you.

  • What a beautiful voice. Timing is the best I've heard, EVER. Thank you for posting this cleaned up version. It's sad that such a voice has passed. He has such conviction and pose. Wonderful, thank you. Chipfryer.

  • @ShawDAMAN This recording is definitely after his car accident. If you listen closely, he tried to lighten his voice and also squashed some vowels.

  • GRACIAS, ENZOONAPULITAN !!!!

  • not his prime. recorded 1963. he proves critics wrong once again

  • An aria about regret, anger, and love's delicate sensibilities all expressed with

    emotional power, nuanced drama, mutable colorations and direct simplicity!

    One can always expect the unexpected from the magnificent MDM! Thank

    you Enzo for posting this historic jewel and to Anry for kindly sharing and

    adding to the Lamento playlist on my channel! Bravo!

  • @LordMgls I don't really care about his comparison to Caruso about which you are so sensitive, (:P) but this really is stunning. I like it very much, and it is really remarkable how a singer changes the voice for a particular piece, as you didn't fail to mention. Few could do this, and all they were the greatest singers.

  • IL RE Assolutamente!!!!

  • doesn't sound like MDM to me
