You forgot Jean Madeira and Lili Chookasian both tremendous Ulrica's with baritonal low G's!!!!

Jerry Hadley, Pavarotti, jussy Berling , Filippeschi e niente male Del Monaco.

HOW OFTEN IS TEBALDI'S GREAT INTERPRETATION DISMISSED AS ...GREAT VOICE PITY ABOUT HER ACTING! WATCH HOW SHE MOVES.....YOU KNOW THAT WHILE ON STAGE NO ONE CAN TAKE THERE EYES OFF HER! SHE DRAWS YOU IN......AND NEVER DOES ANYTHING TO DISTRACT THE AUDIENCE FROM THE DRAMA. SHE IS PURE CLASS.......OTHER SO CALLED ACTORS DISTRACT AND SPOIL THE INTEGRITY OF THE MUSIC WITH BOXING...WRESTLING AND IN ONE THE RECENT CASE...A SPOT OF THE BOSTON STRANGLER...IN CASE OF ONE OF THE MULTIPLE STABBINGS NOT HAVING THE CORRECT EFFECT! NO....TEBALDI RISES ABOVE ALL THIS....THUS THE AUDIENCE IS CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A REAL DRAMA. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT DOCUMENT........HOW LUCKY WE ARE WE CAN SEE IT!!!

Maria Caniglia?

WAS GUELFI THE GREATEST BARITONE IN THE WORLD.....? WELL AT THE VERY LEAST HE IS /WAS....THE GREATEST SCARPIA.....NO DOUBT....EVERY ASPECT HE COVERS IT.......THE MAN WAS A WALKING SINGING TORNADO AND A MARVELOUS ROUSING ACTOR.......AH ....TODAY'S WOKE SISSY DIRECTORS...WHAT WOULD THEY DO WITH SUCH AN ARTIST,??........WHERE COULD THEY HIDE SUCH A BEHEMOTH OF ART!! HIDE IT THEY WOULD NEED......EXPOSURE TO ARTISTRY AND PHISICALITY ON THAT SCALE WOULD BURN THEIR TRANS SENSIBILITIES.

GROSSARTIGE AUSWAHL🎉

Дель монако лучший!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks

Corelli, Baum, Pertile, Piccaluga (Beautiful voice, infuriatingly terrible idea to stop the orchestra at climax IMO), and Limarilli are my picks

TEBALDI

Quot capita, tot sententiae..

LANZA ❤

1.ZENATELLO CORELLI DEL MONACO MARTINELLI🎉

Not sure why Labo's recording was a pitch low.

Antonietta Stella, Leontyne Price and Raina Kabaivanska.

Raina Kabaivanska, Leontyne Price and Mirella Freni.

Gencer ❤

Nessun dubbio Franco Corelli su tutti e non di poco

Sicuramente Corelli su tutti e a seguire Giacomo Lauri Volpi

Maria Galvany is missed, I believe that Stacati that Galvany had was incompatible.

When Nilsson sings the B flat, I think you can hear the set collapsing. ❤

Del Mónaco y Vinay

Many great performances but for me only Callas tugs at the heartstrings.

In my opinion it’s Corelli by a mile.

A refined singer through and through!

Corelli senz'altro, poi il primo Di Stefano, Raimondi e Labò

Bonissolli espectacular, pero del Mónaco es la encarnación de Otello❤

Giovanni Consiglio is very impressive as is Richard Tucker.

Elisabeth Rethberg und Virginia Zeani haben mir am besten gefallen! Bravi!

Great voices all of them! My warmest thanks to all of them and our host who has uploaded this video.

Qui si analizza solo l'aria ,ma cantare tutta l'opera specialmente in teatro è ben altra cosa ,La Tebaldi è sicuramente una Leonora di Vargas da manuale, personalmente amo anche la Cerquetti ,la Gencer e la Callas ,delle "giovani "direi che Aprile Millo è notevolissima .

Thank for tha wonderful comparison. The sound clarity surprises me when I remember how long ago each tenor sang. My late Uncle Paul collected cylinder records by Caruso that snapped, crackled, and popped, if you will. My friend Paul played some similarly noisy CDs, too. But your recordings are much more enjoyable than the ones I described.

Callas, senza neanche scomodare le registrazioni del 52 e del 59

Corelli! Guacomini! Gigli! Del Monaco!

Corelli sopra tutti.

Caruso

In spite of the recording limitations, the greatest female singer who ever lived to be recorded is Rosa Ponselle. No one can ever match that seamless, lush, glorious voice with technique and artistry to match. No one.

Magda Olivero ia amazing. And then Anita Cerqueti, Renata Tebaldi, Maria Callas, Virginia Zeani, Rosa Ponselle, Zinka Milanov and Leyla Gencer.

Conclave di fuoriclasse, Di Stefano senza pari!

O Mio Babbino Caro

corelli, bjorling, bergonzi. the early pavarotti was good, too, but he could not maintain the line (yet) coming down from his high c.

The most sensitive is Dame Nellie Melba! Very touching and expressive performance. She had very solid technique, it’s the result of correct schooling. (Thanks to Madame Mathilde Marchesi.)

Anita Cerquetti... glorious.. effortless... spectacular...

Only Corelli, no one else❤

Alessandro Fransa (1898 - 1962), I managed to find his year of death.

Para mí, Renata Tebaldi y Magda Olivero. Faltó nada menos que Leontyne Price

Gianni Raimondi e Mario Del Monaco.

La voce di Di Stefano la puoi riconoscere fra mille altre voci senza bisogno di titoli o immagini . Penso che sia quello che più dà la giusta drammaticità al brano, anche Del Monaco grande.

Eventually properly dressed Radames without huge stomach

Where is the incredible Leontyne Price's interpretation ? Pleeeeeaaase add it ! :)
