Numa de suas apresentações na TV americana (anos 50/60) Franco Corelli cantou "I te vurria vasà" , canção napolitana dentre as mais belas que se conhecem, com a diferença de que no final ele sobe o tom e dá um agudo que 'encaixou' muito bem no arranjo e é inusitado nesta canção. Já "Passione" foi gravada por Enrico Caruso, Beniamino Gigli e tantos outros intérpretes ao longo das décadas, sendo considerada igualmente das mais belas canções imortais em dialeto napolitano. Bravo Maestro Corelli!
Splendid renditions! Franco is incomparable interpreter of Napolitanas. He is my favorite in this repertoire, together with Di Stefano /although they are completely different in any sense/. Corelli was able to capture that sublime passion and express it in such a convincing and moving way...
Big franco i addore him and listen him every day.his voice is most special voice i have ever heard.i am so sad becouse so little people know and recognize him.how many people know lady gaga or singers like that.many people never heard abot this great tenor and many others great tenors of 20 century.when i see 500 looks or 2000 looks and then for some idiots which voices are funny to me 1000000 looks i cry.people ask me what do you think about that singer abot that song-pop,jazz,comercial.i sad it is ok but in myselfe i think you people are death.
+sab1850 Hahaha.my vife say i am crazy and my friends dont understand me at all.yeasterday we went on some pop concert,evreyone said wauuuuu the concert was 👍👍👍👍👍,they said what a voice,and i think in myselfe you dont know what is good voice.....i think how happy i would be if i could have hear big corelli or others big names of 20 century tenors.i am glad you like my opinion and my passion for some tenor voices...i am also a tenor but lyric.but when i hear franco i think my voice is nothing....this tremendos streanght of steal in his voice is imposssible.my english writting is not so good.thanks
+Matej Knezevic I fell in love with Corelli when I was 12 (and that's long ago) and he is my favorite tenor till today. Unfortunately I never saw him on stage. For me there is nothing as wonderful as an opera sung by voices like Corelli. I wish you all the best for your career!
+sab1850 I am 25 years old and i start listen opera when i was 12-13 years old and then i figured that i can sing like tenors.first i heard pavarotti and long time i lisend only pavarotti and i addmire him.in last 3 years i start to hear franco,bergonzi,pipo,del monaco gedda,wunderlich,volpi and others and i have heard ony bocelli and carreras on stage and they sing well but this is not that.....i wish i could hear all of them but i am too young....😥
I used to listen to my late father sings Lanza's song when I was young. I didn't even realized that he was a tenor together with his younger brother. Poor me I ran away every time he sings because I didn't like it. I don't know any better at that time. Anyway I discovered Corelli only 16 months ago and until now I listen to him everyday. Never get tired of his voice and the way he expressed himself while singing. Maybe I am just missing my father and trying to link his voice to Corelli.
