Belcanto - Tenors of the 78 Era, Part One / Enrico Caruso, Beniamino Gigli, Tito Schipa, Leo Slezak, Joseph ...
Enrico Caruso, Beniamino Gigli

Euroarts, 2005

Recommended
Yes, there is one contributor whose way of speaking English is quite unbearable. Had he met with some accident with his voice or his lung, or was he a counter tenor before or what? Other than this contributor, it is also difficult for those who speak little other ...
  
  











  



  
Popular Songs - Beniamino Gigli (2 CDs) (EMI)
Ardo, Giuseppe Becce, ...

EMI, 2002

Naples' Musical Heart is here!!!.
Beniamino Gigli (1890 - 1957) was one of the greatest all times tenors. He can be compared with Enrico Caruso, Tito Schipa or more recent late Luciano Pavarotti. My grandmother told me of the commotion this tenor produced in Buenos Aires when performing in 1919. For ...
  
  











  



  
Prima Voce: Ruffo
Titta Ruffo, Gaetano Donizetti, ...

Nimbus Records, 1992

Ruffo- The Voice of the Lion!
This CD is an excellent introduction to the voice of one of the greatest singers ever to grace the operatic stage. The transfers are excellent, and I can guarantee that you won't have a `drop out' of the voice here, as happens on some `live' recordings, many of which ...

Much more than "South Pacific"
Such is the nature of pop culture that beloved italian opera singer who sang classical music all his life,was upon his death remember chifely for his later Broadway succes,when in fact Broadway was just a short chapter in oterwise dignified and serious career.There is ...

Verdi: Aida
Giuseppe Verdi, Tullio Serafin, ...

Angel Records, 2001

Extinct Excitement!!!
This Aida is the most viscerally satisfying in my experience. I have heard them all from the 1928 with Pertile up to the latest Domingo fated Aida. Born in the early 70's I never got the chance to hear such singing in person, but one's heart knows, and if you have ...

The Very Best of Beniamino Gigli
Gino Bechi, Giuseppe Noto, ...

EMI Classics, 2003

Gigli Is A Wonderful Singer!
It's an honor for me to be "the first" to review this recording for Amazon. As "opera lovers" know, Gigli was "the greatest tenor in the world" for many years after the death of Caruso. If you haven't heard Gigli, a great treat is in store for you! He had "penache" ...

Only Opera CD You'll Ever Need
Alan Titus, Christian Boesch, ...

RCA, 1997

Perfect for "drop the needle" style tests
If you want to hear full recordings of arias, then this disc is not for you. It plays only tidbits of 99 arias. Contrary to the title, this is definitely not the only opera disc you'll ever need. You shouldn't take it seriously. This disc has next to no value for ...

Prima Voce: Beniamino Gigli Vol. I
Arrigo Boito, Arturo Buzzi-Peccia, ...

Nimbus Records, 1992

The Greatest Pagliacci EVER
Many people are born to sing, but few are born to sing like the angels. Beniamino Gigli is truly the most remarkable tenor of this century. While he peformed on both sides of the Atlantic, in New York, London, Italy, and Germany for nearly his entire career, he ...

Verdi: Requiem
Ezio Pinza, Giuseppe Verdi, ...

Pearl, 1995

The Requiem by which all others are measured
This Verdi Requiem is the pinnacle of greatness. Serafin and this majestic quartet of soloists is the one by which all others are measured. Although the sound is grainy (1939) the voices are simply the best; listen to Gigli's unforgettable "Ingemisco" and Pinza's ...
  
  











  



  
Puccini: La Bohème
Afro Poli, Aristide Baracchi, ...

Nimbus Records, 1994

MY FAVORITE "LA BOHEME"!
There are more recorded "Bohemes" than one can count. But I always come back to this one. To me this is the most tender and moving performance that I've ever heard. Recorded in 1938 and I believe the first complete recording of this opera, the sound is not what ...
