-------------------------------------
The Elixir of Love was the result of a commission from a panicked Milanese impresario in 1832. He needed a new opera to replace one which had fallen through, and who better to go to than Donizetti, the man who was known to churn out an entirely new opera in two weeks? The premiere took place on schedule on May 12, 1832. L'elisir d'amore was an instant hit, running for thirty-two further consecutive performances. Well over a century and a half later, it is still going strong--still funny, still melodious, and still bringing down the house.
-------------------------------------
TITO GOBBI (1913 - 1984) was an Italian operatic baritone. He made his operatic debut in Gubbio in 1935 as Count Rodolfo in Bellini's La Sonnambula and quickly appeared in Italy major opera houses. Working at La Scala in Milan for the 1935-1936 season as an understudy, gave him a breadth of experience. In 1942, he debuted at the house in the role of Belcore in Donizetti's L'Elisir d'amore conducted by Tullio Serafin. It was under Serafin's guidance and direction that the young Gobbi prepared many roles, including some that would become crucial to his later career; these included Scarpia, Rigoletto, Simon Boccanegra.
Early in his career he appeared in a number of motion pictures between 1937 and 1959, including some filmed operas such as The Barber of Seville (in 1946 starring Ferruccio Tagliavini) as well a contemporary drama in 1946, Avanti a lui tremava tutta Roma (" Before Him All Rome Trembled") which featured Anna Magnani, the story of which intertwines the actions of the underground movement in Rome in 1944 against the Germans by a group of opera performers who are part of the Italian resistance, with their presentation of Tosca.
Gobbi was a close friend, collaborator, and admirer of Callas, and he was interviewed several times about their various stage collaborations, noting in his book that "with Maria it was not performing but living".
-------------------------------------
ITALO TAJO (1915 - 1993) was an Italian operatic bass, particularly associated with Mozart and Rossini roles. In 1940, he joined the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, where he sang regularly until 1956. He appeared with the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in 1942, as Leporello in Don Giovanni, a role he would sing numerous times during his career.
The war over, his career quickly took an international turn, with debuts in Paris, London, Edinburgh and Buenos Aires. In 1946, he made his debut at the Chicago Opera Company, and 1948 saw his debut at both the San Francisco Opera and Metropolitan Opera in New York (Don Basilio in The Barber of Seville, with Giuseppe Valdengo); his roles there included Figaro, Leporello, Don Basilio, Dulcamara, Don Pasquale, Gianni Schicchi, etc.
Although he made a specialty of comic roles, he sang a fair number of serious roles, notably Verdi's Attila and Banco, and Mussorgsky's Boris Godunov. .
Tajo made relatively few recordings, the most famous being the 1950 RCA Victor Rigoletto, with Leonard Warren, Erna Berger and Jan Peerce, conducted by Renato Cellini. He also recorded The Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovanni for Cetra. He can also be heard in live broadcasts of Macbeth, opposite Maria Callas, conducted by Victor de Sabata.
In the late 1940s, he appeared in film versions of The Barber of Seville, L'Elisir d'amore, and Lucia di Lammermoor.

Gobbi in his absolute, glorious youthful prime! What a spectacular, roaring lion's voice with easy hights too!!! One of the most beautiful baritone voices I ever heard!
Questo è incredibile. Di solito le parti di Dulcamara all'opera mi fanno annoiare e nel video le salto. Qui Dulcamara era una delizia, non mi stancavo di vederlo e sentirlo. E Tito Gobbi quant'era affascinante da (più) giovane!

Loretta do Lelio who became Franco Corelli's wife also appears & performs in this delightfull performance,a great memory to see,a delightfull production one to see again.Rene
deliziosissima opera, Italo Tajo ai limiti dell'incredibile come cantante e come attore, meglio di qualsiasi Dulcamara dei giorni nostri (Udite, udite, o rustici 21:22, "La Nina gondoliera e il Senator Tredenti" 48:49)
Ossia una voce chiara e squillante, e con una dizione netta e scolpita, esente o quasi da enfasi, capace di cambiare colore
A delicious Elixir. Musically, it is superb, sprightly orchestral playing, conducting that keeps things moving along nicely and the chorus well balanced and characterful. And the performances are just great. Nelly Corradi is a charming Adina, Gino Sinimberghi is a very effective Nemorino. Italo Tajo is wonderful as the quack Dulcamara, he is incredibly funny without ever resorting to buffoonery and has one of the more beautiful voices of anybody singing this role. But the film is best seen I think for Tito Gobbi's Belcore. I'll be honest in saying that I don't think Gobbi had the most beautiful or powerful voice I've heard but his acting, musicianship, intelligence and diction are absolutely impeccable here and his Come Paride vezzoso (10:08) does boast some of his most lovely singing ever.
You are absolutely right about Italo Tajo! He was also brilliant in the 1947 version of the "Barbiere di Seviglia" as Don Basilio!
What a beautiful memory!
Mio gran Maestro rispettoso Gino Sinimberghi!
Le mi manca tantissimo!
No conocía esta versión cinematográfica del Elixir de amor, la acabo de ver completa, es muy interesante y hermosa. Gracias por subirla!!
Sono contentissima di potere (ormai solo virtualmente) vedere ,ammirare e ringraziare Loretta per tutto ciò che ha fatto per il marito Franco Corelli.Si dice che dietro ad un grande uomo (e indubbiamente Franco Corelli lo è stato sotto tutti i punti di vista)ci sia sempre una grande donna...Mi piace pensare che Loretta di Lelio lo sia stata.Grazie a chi ha pubblicato questo suo lavoro.
What a beautiful rendition of that opera! Great cast in acting and singing .... and I may be wrong, but I think I have seen a teenaged Gina Lollobrigida among the girls around Adina.
there is Silvana Mangano too
La Corradi, come attrice, era effettivamente bella e recitava deliziosamente
Che carino Nemorino!! :-))) Never heard of him before ! Thanks for uploading this great video of my favorite opera!
Bravissimo il M° Italo, grande Dulcamara
A belíssima Lollobrigida já se destacava no coro era o prenúncio de uma carreira fulgurante, bravíssima e iluminada
De Brazil thanks ❤❤❤❤
Fenomenale!!
Thanks
Great! Ensemble!
BRAVI!!!
If you look carefully amongst the figurantes you will see the very young Gina Lollobrigida and Silvanna Mangano !
il Dulcamara più convincente che io abbia mai visto!
Interesting. Listening to Gobbi's vocal production, I am reminded of Claudio Desderi. Of course perhaps the other way round would be more appropriate
Bella produzione di gran expresivita con gran direttore Morelli .
Óptima versión solo le faltó los subtítulos en varias lenguas, principalmente el español.
E in Italiano 😊
anche Sinimberghi figura disinvolto come non avrei creduto
Wow!! Great to see the marvellous Tito Gobbi as Dulcamara
