Giacomini has more of a bellowey voice, but Corelli's has more of a ringing quality that carries very well

Wonderful!

@31122051 Bergonzi e' un baritono,lirico spinto Veriano Luchetti!

[Pacuvio25]

Ha un timbro molto simile a Raimondi, solo che Giacomini è un tenore!

@lateralex90 I think it's just not the best evening he had, as it may happen to everyone... And as one of the bests, he was able to give the audience still a great operatic moment...

I may be wrong, but I feel that Giacomini, at that time of this career and age, was kinda...well, calaf wasn't quite a fit for his voice, lol...I've heard other stuff he sang and amazingly beautiful and awesome, but I don't feel that awesomeness with this one :S...am I wrong?

[Qbendanny]

Great and sexy. Bravo !!!

@Onegin65 Jussi himself considered the lyrical rep to be his home turf from what I've read. He was hesitant to call himself spinto; he allegedly said he was "maybe a lirico spinto" so I don't think he thought of himself as entirely fitting in such roles.

The number of times he sung Ramades can be counted on one hand and they didn't render the usual praise he got. I think he did right to stay away from Calaf from a vocal standpoint, which is a wisdom many singers could benefit from applying.

ma guardi che laurivolpi ha fatto una lunga carriera, lei ripete le frasi e le considerazioni di altri.E PARTITO COME TENORE LEGGERO E' DIVENTATO SPINTO ED INFINE EROICO drammatico. che kraus dica quel che vuole ma la maggior parte dei critici dicono questo

Nella carriera di un cantante può variare in modo più o meno significativo il tipo di repertorio ma la voce, se amministrata da una buona tecnica vocale, fondamentalmente tende a rimanere sempre quella ( tutt'al più si può " ingrossare " un po' o, al limite, scurire ) e la voce di Lauri Volpi era pienamente EROICA, e lo si capisce benissimo dall'incredibile potenza in particolare degli acuti, letteralmente assordanti. Voce eroica di straordinario volume dal timbro solare e luminoso.
