Loading...
Uploaded by PARSMEDIA on May 22, 2007
Music Documentary Series / 13 x 30 min / 1996
The great tenors of the early to mid-twentieth century are introduced and analyzed in a 13-part television series. Each episode has both a biographical and a musical focus. Every tenor's particular art and style is demonstrated in remarkable archive footage which was digitally scanned and its speed and pitch corrected; much of this footage is from private collections or long-lost films and is shown here for the first time.
Directed by Jan Schmidt-Garre
Produced by PARS MEDIA
Co-Produced by BR, NDR, ORB, SDR, SFB, SR, SWF, and WDR
Supported by FFF and MAP-TV

What is the name of the song that starts at 4:20?

Beautiful - thank you so much for making this available.

madison, it would be very unlikely. The film of Caruso kissing the boy was from 1913. That's 96 years ago before even taking into account the boys age. He looks about 10 in the film. Even this documentary was 83 years after the event, so the gentleman would be over 90 here!

Thank you very much for posting this - and for the subtitles!
Caruso will always remain a legend and one of the greatest - if not the greatest - tenors ever.

Ja, ja. Ojalá Caruso hubiera tenido la oportunidad de grabar frente a un micro tan moderno como ese.
El hombre hubo de conformarse con grabar frente a un miserable cono.
¡¡¡Y cómo suena!!!
Bendito entre los benditos del canto

If one has to have a fake Caruso why is the actor singing in front of microphone (Caruso died in 1921 - no microphones then!)

Ja, ja Caruso singin in front of a microphone.
It would be great if they did exist then.
He had to record his arias in front of a simple cone.
And how it sounds!
Bendito Caruso. The best ever.

Anyone that does not realize how incredibly valuable these films are must be nuts. Is the guy that Caruso kissed still living? Thanks!
