Well, fuck. That's about as good as this gets.
-
Giacomini awesome as usual
-
it's like, he is nailing the notes to our heads... brilliant! great technical success and power!
-
Has to be the best rendition of this aria! Corelli with a close 2nd but this man's voice is so fascinatingly brilliant, to have that depth and colour and still have huge ringing notes at the top end! It really is a one in a million voice! Brilliant orchestration also!! A day rarely goes by without this being played at least 10 times. I can only hope that people start to appreciate this largely unnoticed voice!!
-
@cookie2000ify Not Corelli? Nor Bjorling? What do you find superior in GG's performance? Not trying to argue; just curious:) --

Giacomini is in fine voice here. His rendition isn't the best, for me at least (I believe the two best Johnsons of whom we have recorded evidence -- remember, Caruso created the role, but never recorded anything from it -- were Del Monaco and Corelli, with Domingo in third place -- AND although the role was too heavy for Bjorling to sing onstage, his recordings of this aria are impressive), but it is still powerful and exciting --
-
He was in "great voice" at this performance! This is late in life for a tenor, he has warmth and power and this is just a beautiful performance! Probably the best of this aria!
-
@bassobari The one recording that opened my eyes(ears) was his cavalleria rusticana which was made in 1990. So I agree.
-
@tabrizlioglan I admit Pavrotti is a great singer but I don't feel as much attachment to him as I do to Giacomini. I think in his voice one can some magical quality that can't be bought or taught. Primal, I would say.
-
@tabrizlioglan Certainly not in a repertory that was not for him.

I have listened intently to Giacomo's earlier work here on youtube. It appears to me that he rose to an almost superhuman level of singing when he hit his fifties! Has anyone else felt this too? He is the best voice lesson you can find anywhere.
