From Italy in 1978, Carreras gives us a golden rendition of the difficult tenor aria, "O, tu che in seno" for Verdi's La Forza del Destino.

  • Golden? What would you call the versions of Del Monaco, Tucker and Corelli then??????

    He's pushing his so beautiful voice to its limits....

  • I love Tucker, Corelli, and Del Monaco. They were all heroic voices, and Tucker is my favoarite tenor of all time. But- Carreras does sing this aria with a golden tone. There are no two ways about that, IMO. We are not comparing him to the others.

  • what a voice bravoooooooooooooooooooo

  • @ErnaSack

    agree poor guy did this too early in his career and shortened.

  • @SteveODonnell25

    that´s why i had to concentrate on baritones, or one of them to say it exactly:-)))

  • the most beautifully sounding Alvaro with an angel´s face. how slim he is here. handsome.

  • GRANDE!

  • i´m grateful he dared to sing this.

  • There is a 1975 L'Elisir d'Amore from SF where, if possible, his singing is even more beautiful. The role of Nemorino, I think, fits him better. This performance is also one of his best, the voice just caressing you with liquid gold.

  • As beautiful as it is, I can't help but thinking, he was ruining his voice as he sang it. I prefer more natural metal in this aria and certainly the role

    But I suppose with him, di Stefano others we must be thankful for what they did, on their terms even though I wish they had been more circumspect about what their voices were naturally intended for

    This continues today where another Villazon-never on this level-and apparently not lasting as long continue to sing what they shouldn't
