Recondita armonia Tosca Enrico Caruso

What strange and lovely harmony of such different beauties!
How dark is Floria, this ardent love of mine.
And you, mysterious beauty, long and blond flowing tresses
how your eyes are sky-blue, Tosca's eyes are black-night.
Art, too, with its many mysteries, blends all together
such different beauties. But though I paint another,
my only thought is you, oh, my only thought is you,
Tosca, is you, is you!

  • Well, at first I thought: how sad that everyone must follow this, but then I thought, no... how wonderful to have someone show the way to what is possible.

  • @45oldbear Well italian and swedish are two extremely different languages. JB had a swedish tounge so to speak, I still think he does a marvellous job (I have swedish ears though).

    I really like Caruso because he is so effortless. But JB is the love of my life... I can really sense Caruso in his singing sometimes, I believe he studied him very very closely.

  • OHHHH!!!!!!!!

  • @flicfan416 Yes, he WAS (being the role he was singing) and he was totally present as that role. An exceptional empathetic genious. Amazing that we can still hear it a century later. And this is not live ....

  • I read an excellent article about why Caruso was so great, and at the end, the author summed it up with: "Why was he so great? He just was"

    That's how I feel after listening to this

  • @maxiborgaro lol !!!

  • maxiborgaro

    Is not only my opinion that M.D.M. was one of the greates opera singer ever....Just he likes to forse his voice.Singing with passion.......About Caruso -yes he is the first one,but after him are M.D.M,Franco Corelli and some others.

    With all my respect Pavarotti was good but not like the old opera singers-thats all.NO MORE COMMENTS FROM MY SIDE,IF U UNDERSTAND ENOUGH FROM MUSIC OK,IF NOT IS YOUR PROBLEM NOT MINE.Wish u all the best!!!

  • @inawises Mario never better than pavarotti Caruso perhaps...

  • Genial!!!

    

  • I read somewhere an anecdote about Caruso:

    He was at a bank in NY one time, and the teller didn't want to recognize his signature 'cause he didn't have any ID on him at the time, so he asked: "How can I prove to you that I'm Enrico Caruso?" The teller said: "Sing" hoping to catch a fraud; It said that he sang this very Aria "Recondita Armonia" Not only did they immediately recognized the signature, the customers and employees were privileged enough to hear that wonderful voice!
