There is a legend that when John McCormack was introduced to Enrico Caruso, he asked him "how is the greatest tenor in the world." The Great Caruso replied, "Since when were you a baritone?"
Único Tito Schipa, eterno tenor. Que voz tan pura y bella acompañada de una impecable dicción y fraseo purísimo y melodioso. Simplemente único Tito Schipa!!!!
A beautiful natural Lyric Tenor voice discovered here by accident. I had not heard those lyrics before. Would love to hear more. Matthew Gilsenan Music.
@matthewgilsenan3600 There's no information of the tenor or the lyricist, O Weir. It may be me, but some parts of the song are difficult to understand. If you have any luck deciphering them, would you please let me know.
Maybe one day someone will identify the self same views of this railway journey, film it, edit and post it on RU-vid spliced horizontally together with this 1930's extract (including its lovely soundtrack) for a modern audience to enjoy. 🙏
When I was in elementary school, we had this one guy who was a musician and he would come and bring in some songs to play for us and this was one of them. Oh the nostalgia
McCormack studied the Italian 'Bel Canto' style in Milan in the early 1900's. The Bel Canto really shows itself in McCormack's wonderful diction and superb breath control. One of the best lyric tenors ever. Che bellissima voce. Bravo Maestro McCormack. Grazie mille.
Un trio di grandi dal poeta murolo padre almagnifico tagliaferri e dal sommo interprete schipa cosa vuoi di più nn ci saranno più persone del genere riposate in pace per l eternità sarete sempre nei nostri cuori 😢
Seine letzte Ruhe fand Richard Tauber in einem Ehrengrab der Stadt London auf dem Friedhof Brompton (Kensington West).[4] Auf dem Friedhof von Bad Ischl wurde ein Gedenkstein aufgestellt
So simple yet so melodious and this was 1912. In spite of the poor technology of the time you can hear the beautiful 'rounded' notes coming through, - an absolute favourite!
My # 1 favourite tenor. The first girl I had a crush on , about 75 y ago, was a Silvia/Sylvia Clark(e) in Birkenhead. I hope she had/has a happy life: I never disclosed my feelings to her...far too shy at the time.
In rural Oregon in the 1940's my mother would play an old pump organ (no electricity) to accompany my dad and us kids singing this song and others from a tattered copy of "The Everybody Sing" songbook. How grateful I am to have that memory awoken by this song.
Nicht nur ein Sänger für große Gefühle, sondern auch ein ausgezeichneter Lied-Sänger, der sich durch Stilsicherheit, Einsicht, Interpretationsgeschick und guten Geschmack auszeichnete… ⭐️💖⭐️ Vielen Dank fürs Einstellen dieses wundervollen Videos! 🙏🍀
@@meisterwue Tauberzauber… das Wort benutze ich auch gerne! ⭐️ Schade, dass es einen wie ihn heutzutage nicht mehr gibt… aber das gilt auch für andere Große vergangener Zeiten…
@@meisterwue Hoffentlich war es eine schöne Reise! Und dann ist es auch gut, wieder nach Hause zu kommen… Wir verreisen in ein paar Tagen, sind zwischendurch hier, und dann geht‘s nochmal los, beruflich für meinen Mann, zum Vergnügen für mich. Da muss RU-vid mal einige Wochen warten… Danach erwarte ich mindestens tausend Benachrichtigungen… 😱
@@hrbooksmusic7878 ja das war erbaulich absolut.....da ist eine Doku "This was Richard Tauber" , von 1971 mit Zeitzeugen u a Elisabeth Bergner....ich grüße Dich , wir müssen mal wieder auf unsern speziellen Kanal, wo keiner stört
Tito Schipa, all’anagrafe Raffaele Attilio Amedeo Schipa, nato a Lecce il 27 dicembre del 1888, morto a New York il 16 dicembre del 1965, è stato un tenore e attore italiano considerato il maggior tenore di grazia della storia dell’opera e definito L’usignolo di Lecce. Lo amo.
