Que quieren que les diga fue una voz incomparable y lo que mas me gustaba en el fueron sus ganas de cantar y llegar al publico con lo que el cantaba . GRANDE MARIO.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
NO? there is one, like his voice, but he has not bee known get, his name? Hugo O Pena, I am a Tenor, Like Mario Lanza, the same Voice, but one day I will be known !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I watched this again and listen to his voice knowing this was about 65 years ago when recording technology was not what is today and he is singing on a stage with no microphone in front of him and the voice is so powerful and magnificent the mind boggles to think what he sounded like in a live performance
The sheer beauty of his round, gorgeous vocal sound is impossible to imitate. Pavarotti sang this aria beautifully, but his tone is (comparatively) tinny and shrill compared to the warmth and depth of Lanza's sound. What a horrible loss, that he died so young.
His way of conveying a song was unparalleled...unmatched. Critics would often argue that he was acting for a movie...but isn't that what an opera singer does as well? He was and still is an operatic king, the most supreme tenor and the most expressive singer that ever walked this earth.
philip absolutely true my good friend terry robinson was marios health trainer,who mario grew to love told me mario was the greatest tenor that ever lived, i belong to the mario lanza institute in philadelphia, every year they have the mario lanza ball at the doubl tree hotel, which lasts for two days, it starts in a italian restaurant where they have singers performing, the second day is the church where mario was a alter boy and sung the ave maria, regards .
@@louisvaccaro5865 Thanks for sharing Louis. You are so priviledged to have an inner circle relationship with someone who assisted the greatest tenor that ever walked. Cheers to you my friend, and thanks for helping keep his memory alive.
Philip Loverde yes Philip he did it all on stage as well as a newcomer with a couple tuff directors as Stewart Granger said an his voice was so powerful but with So much Heart wow - Listen on you tube to a song in 1954 Someday - unbelievable an he was much older
He is just brilliant. I loved his voice the instant I heard it in my 20s and I wonder what it would be like to hear him live. Nobody has his talent and passionate voice in 100 years. Its no wonder Pavarotti idolized him.
mario was the best, hands down. there will never be another one like him during our life time. regards Louie Vaccaro member mario lanza institute, philadelphia for more than 30 years. living in las vegas.
I have listened this part "cercando io vò" like thousand times , the way he builds up the energy and releases it in the "vo" is absolutely out of this world.
Mario Lanza was amazing. He sang with a passion that was incomparable. This performance is an example. He sang as if it was his last time. A wonderful book expresses so much about what Lanza was about: A Kid from Philadelphia, Mario Lanza, the Voice of the Poets. It captures his marvelous talent and is worth reading and listening to Lanza at the same time
Phenomenon and phenomenal!... Nothing else can be added... Great voice, captivating charm, dramatic play and stage art, passion of flame temperature, naturalness... Mario Lanza was and will remain a one-of-a-kind, gift of God to the people, for which we thank Him.
1921 the year of the tenor. We lost one of the greatest ever in 1921 as Enrico Caruso died. We however were blessed with the birth of three all time great tenors: Mario Lanza, Franco Corelli, and Giuseppe Di Stefano.
I just discovered Mario Del Monaco. I was surprised to learn how famous he was during his time. No one ever mentions him, like in your comment you don't reference him yet mention his contemporaries.
@@annereilley4892 I think it is who is on our 'sightline'! I personally like (apart from the greats) Di Stefano and Jussi Bjorling. but a lot of people don't rate them. Each to own, obviously. but Lanzo? I think he was just unique. As was Pavarotti, IMO.
Anne Reilley I was mentioning tenors born in 1921. My name is Frank by the way. I am on my Sister's email. Mario Del Monaco was born in 1915 and is considered by many the greatest dramatic tenor of all time. I own many of his recordings including complete recordings of Pagliacci, Aida, Cavaleria Rusticana, and Otello.
@@debpierce2496 That's great, but I wonder why his name doesn't come up outside of his videos? I read comments for videos with non MdM tenors and I don't recall any mentioning MdM.
@delmonaco21 I wasn't saying he's second rate, i was saying i don't read his name in comments on videos. Typical comments are like Deb's (the OP), who doesn't mention him. She knows him of course, but she had something important to say about the others, not MdM. Watch a video titled "Placido Domingo sings: Recondita armonia." They mention pavarotti, di stefano, mario lanza, corelli, yet not one single mention of MdM despite his amazing version. Video after video, there will be comments about many opera stars, but not MdM. I strongly disagree that his name is "all over the place." If it's "all over the place" why isn't he mentioned in the domingo video's comments? I would also caution about using expressions like "greatest of all time" since we do not know how tenors sounded before caruso made a recording. My point is it's a shame that new people aren't going to learn about MdM because he's passing into the dustbin of history along with countless other forgotten once famous people. Who's your favorite character from "One Man's family" ? At one time, everyone knew that program, but now? Forgotten. So what can you do about this? Talk more about him. Mention him in comments in other videos so others learn about him.
It is truly amazing that a singer who passed away so long ago still captures the imagination of millions. It is a testimony to Mario Lanza's fantastic talent. It was a splendid but short lived career filled with passion and success and some difficult times. At the end, Lanza was back on his way up and was among the most popular entertainers of his era. I recommend reading A KID FROM PHILADELPHIA, MARIO LANZA, THE VOICE OF THE POETS, and to listen to him as you read the beautiful essays that are a homage to a star who is still with us and will always be with us.
I was driving down the street one afternoon listening to two members of the "literati" discussing opera. The subject of Mario Lanza came up. One of the speakers remared that either Lanza's vowels all sounded alike or all different. The speakers were either critical or patronizing of Mr. Lanza. I think he is finally appreciated for the great artist he was.
A glorious, wonderful voice - I think, the greatest tenor of the 20th century. The deepest, sweetest sound, and the most passionate delivery. If only he'd been able to stay strong and healthy, and follow up as a musician and performer later in life.

**Mario Lanza** An **Incredible** Opera Tenor, Did Most Of His Opera Singing In Movies. The **Legacy** He Left Behind Will Always **Live,** And **Stand Forever**
Марио Ланца непревзойденный певец и актёр! Его роли с детства запали мне в душу. Оперное пение с тех пор стало навсегда частью моей жизни. Спасибо, Марио , за то, что ты есть и всегда будешь!
Gigi, I absolutely love this aria. I see from your comment that you speak Italian. I, too, am Italian. My grandparents came from Naples. I know some words in Italian, but am not fluent. Am I right in believing that the last words Mario sings in this aria (Mi vai tanto male) means "I am so hurt." I don't know anyone who could have sung that with as much emotion. He can just break your heart. (Graziella)
Brilliant! Sara Montiel died last April 8, 2013, shortly after her 85th anniversary. Thanks for this video of such high quality. I would cry too if I could listen to Mario Lanza singing live.
I think on balance, for sheer technicality and professionalism, Pavarotti has it. They both have this lyrical quality but my money is on Pavarotti. More depth and tonal feeling.
Incredible. No comparison to Pavarotti... far superior. Lanza's voice has passion, warmth, and is impossible to ignore. It grabs your attention like no other. One is transfixed and all other voices pale in comparison. What a tragedy he died so young. There is a sensitivity which comes with this depth and passion, which is inexplicable. No wonder others in Hollywood could not understand. Lanza operates at a different level, and leaves the rest so far behind, they just can't compare. His voice is unforgettable, while Pavarotti and others are pedestrian.
@@edwardkerrigan5356 On re-reading what I wrote, I see I was typing in the dark, ready to go to sleep, hence the typos. TY for your feedback. I completely agree.
I have been happy after many years with Domingo and Pavarotti. But after you came out with all this cut with Mario Lanza ......I can only say Thank You from my heart. Brynjar Hoff. Brynjarhoff.no
