I haven’t heard this rendition in years. Every syllable is sung with full attention and lovingly. Thank you for posting this. Our family had a collection of Enrico’s 45 RPM records. No idea what happened to them as I could not assist my brothers in finalizing their residence when my mother had to go to assisted living, only four years after my fathers death
Che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole, N'aria serena doppo na tempesta! Pe' ll'aria fresca pare gia' na festa... Che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole. Ma n'atu sole Cchiu' bello, oi ne'. 'O sole mio Sta 'nfronte a te! 'O sole, 'o sole mio Sta 'nfronte a te! Sta 'nfronte a te! Quanno fa notte e 'o sole Se ne scenne, Me vene quase 'na malincunia; Sotto 'a fenesta toia restarria Quanno fa notte e 'o sole Se ne scenne. Ma n'atu sole Cchiu' bello, oi ne'. 'O sole mio Sta 'nfronte a te! 'O sole, 'o sole mio Sta 'nfronte a te! Sta 'nfronte a te! Ma n'atu sole Cchiu' bello, oi ne'. 'O sole mio Sta 'nfronte a te! 'O sole, 'o sole mio Sta 'nfronte a te! Sta 'nfronte a te!
Well, Nikolai Gedda could certainly hold a note longer, but tied with Caruso must be Jussi Bjorling who had the sweet voice. From Caruso voice alone I hear also a great actor.
I was lucky enough to be raised with a lot of different singers and genres from before my time. I was a 75 child. And Mario lanza was someone that I heard on records and loved. This song was the ultimate in romantic love for me as a young girl. I still love a lot of his songs.
Good morning. I am thankful for all the positive comments. I had my thoughts but some of you ( I have given like to comments I liked 😇) already said what I wanted to say. I heard this aria in Callas's voice for the first time and that means you will hear her echo in other singers interpretation and you will return to her rendertion for satisfaction again and again. Callas sang. Others follow. Merci Beaucoup.🌹🙏.
When I was 11 I thought that this was the most perfect song ever recorded. I had no interest in "love," it was the technique of the round that I was in awe of.
Stella voce brillante che s'imponeva senza sforzo ai coleghi ed al coro. Grande qualita sonora e presenza scenica inmensa. Non si poteva lasciar di guardarla qundo stava sul palcoscnico. Artista e cantante unica. Bellisima signora
