    Not good here. Too heavy above the chest voice. She has a very good chest voice, but above F it has to be let go of and the head voice needs to be focused better.

  • @ER1CwC

    Two interesting things about this video. 1. Corelli had somewhat functional French! 2. He was actually contracted to sing Faust at the Met. I just checked the René Seghers biography of Corelli, and apparently he withdrew because Bing signed Georges Prêtre to conduct, and Corelli had hated working with Prêtre in Tosca and Norma at the Paris Opera. John Alexander replaced Corelli as Faust, opposite Caballe.

    I saw her at the Met late 80’s early 90’s as Electra. Took a friend who had never even heard an opera much less see one in person. I don’t think he will ever return. His only comment was “well that was certainly operatic”. Maybe it was too much for a first outing. 😅

    Thank you so much for this precious, never-before-seen video! ❤ Franco's so cute, so charmant, I've melted 😍 Interesting to see how excitedly he announced here that he was to open the final season of the old Met with Faust. Only, unfortunately, a few weeks later he had such a big falling out with George Pretre in Paris, that he refused to ever work with that conductor again, and the role at the Met (and the 1965 season opener) ended up with Nicolai Gedda 😭😭😭😭 Here's the interview's transcription in English and Italian: 🇬🇧 - Franco Corelli, is this your first time singing in Paris? - Yes, this is my first time in Paris. I'll be singing three operas here: Tosca, Norma and Don Carlos. I'll be singing Tosca for my own pleasure, Norma - to sing again with Maria Callas, and Don Carlos for the pleasure of the theater. - And which operas would you like to return to perform in Paris? - I love Il trovatore and Turandot, and another opera, which I did a month ago in America, Gounod's Roméo et Juliette. It's a really charming, beautiful opera. - You're talking about America. Will you be in the United States next year? - Yes, I'll be back next year, and again for the season... - The last season? - For the final season of the Metropolitan. And I'll be singing Faust. I'll sing Faust on the opening night of the last season. And this opera was first performed eighty years ago for the first time, at the inauguration of the old Metropolitan. - All in all, a historic performance with you. - I certainly hope so. 🇮🇹 - Franco Corelli, è la prima volta che canta a Parigi? - Sì, è la prima volta che vengo a Parigi. Canterò qui tre opere: Tosca, Norma e Don Carlos. Canterò Tosca per mio piacere, Norma per cantare di nuovo con Maria Callas e Don Carlos per il piacere del teatro. - E quali opere le piacerebbe tornare a rappresentare a Parigi? - Amo Il trovatore e Turandot, e un'altra opera, che ho fatto un mese fa in America, Roméo et Juliette di Gounod. È un'opera davvero affascinante e bellissima. - Sta parlando dell'America. Sarà negli Stati Uniti anche l'anno prossimo? - Sì, tornerò l'anno prossimo, e ancora per la stagione... - L'ultima stagione? - Per l'ultima stagione del Metropolitan. E canterò Faust. Canterò Faust nella serata inaugurale dell'ultima stagione. E quest'opera è stata rappresentata per la prima volta ottant'anni fa, all'inaugurazione del vecchio Metropolitan. - Tutto sommato, una performance storica con lei. - Lo spero proprio.

      ​​​@@franzleiermann4955 Если речь идет о русской опере, я тоже предпочту Николая Гедду всем другим тенорам-иностранцам, поскольку он практически единственный из них, кто обладал умением передать "загадочную русскую душу" наряду с отличным произношением, вполне на уровне носителя языка. В остальных случаях моя любовь - Франко Корелли, вне зависимости от фонетики.

      ​@@franzleiermann4955 "Better French" and "better diction" are not enough to be a great singer. Corelli was not only one of the best tenors after the WW2 era, he was completely unique. He was a one of a kind phenomenon that we will never witness again. Gedda on the other hand, was just a good singer. He sang everything quite well but he was never memorable. To each his own I guess...

    Ended her career in vocal shambles. Why so singers do this. ? She'd been wobbling for years. Why would the Met Hire her for Turandot ? Her phrasing was seemless, it would go on forever, indulgent but beautiful.

    I heard Jones at the Met in the mid-90s as Turandot - massive, thrilling, but pitchy, with a wobble a rugby team could run through. As much as I loved her, I always thought it was weird that she hit it big by replacing an indisposed Leontyne Price for the Royal Opera's Forza a few years before this recital: - such different voices and techniques. But for me, Gwyneth has always been exciting, scooping and all.
