I don't know whether the recording has raised the pitch, but that is a high F sharp, not F

@juanmaplante Estoy de acuerdo... comienza bien, pero.... no cubre y forza... abre el sonido... solo el agudo es meritorio

This opera was written just after one particular tenor (whose name escapes me) demonstrated how to move into the tenor high range above A in the early 19th cenrury. I think its first staging was about 1835.
Before this, opera composers like Mozart rarely moved beyond F or G on the tenor clef. Very quickly composers realised that trying to sing chest tone above a D-flat did not produce a musical, masculine or even a pleasant sound.
