Forgotten Great Baritones V : Basiola
Loading...
Uploaded by primobaritono on Jul 7, 2008
Mario Basiola (1892-1965) just as my father's voice teacher Vladimir Dubinsky studied with the great Antonio Cotogni in Rome. This was recorded in 1934.

Basiola was using,in a-flat of "Al pari di voi" to point his finger slowly in front of the specs,all around, holding this note until the end.
-
My singing teacher studied vocal pedagogy with Basiola in Milan. Richard Miller, in the preface to his book 'The Structure of Singing' calls Basiola the finest vocal technician he ever encountered. This recording is a display of that perfect technique.

Is this from the 1934 Gigli recording of PAG? Gorgeous singing, absolutely gorgeous! More Basiola, please!
-
A truly beautiful interpretation. You might search for a recording of Pasquale Amato singing the Prologue to make a final choice of the best.
-
Another great, but alas forgotten baritone is Enrico Molinari. Check out his TROVATORE with Merli!!
-
People just don't sing like this anymore!

Extraordinaria voz y excelente interpretación. El Ab y el G final rotundos y viriles. Debes sentirte orgulloso "mariobyb" de tener un abuelo de la calidad vocal de Mario Basiola. Es la primera vez que lo escucho y deseo escuchar mucho más de él.

The people who claim the older singers were pushing are willfully ignorant of the extended careers that they old singers enjoyed. We have Mark Reizen here on Yourube singing in his 80s. Hotter lived into his 90s and sang/taught to his 70s/80s.
They can accidentally get a sound that is similar to the greats and sustain it for a song or two but get owrn our because it is manufactured, then they condemn the older singers for having done it that way.
They are morons.

Sr. Basiola was my "first" baritone, having heard him solely, as most listeners have today, to the two Gigli recordings. Lately, I've been finding a new appreciation of his art. The most noticeable trait to me is the lightness of vibrato, unlike most of todays singers whose heavy vibrati (wobble) is used to cover up the lack of real vocal expression or color. Also, Sr. Basiola is one of the great singers with a distinctively unique timbre that is recognizeable from the first note.
