Robert Merrill - Largo al factotum [Il barbiere di Siviglia] - TV footage 

Okay, you've seen and heard him sing this a zillion times, but strangely this markedly earlier piece of footage has never been on RU-vid (to my knowledge). And you know me... I thrive on the archive.

This channel is primarily about vocal emission-aural examples of basically correct singing, correct impostazione-chiaroscuro, vowel clarity, firm and centered pitch, correct vibrato action, absence of throatiness or thickness, sounds free from constriction and from the acoustic noise that accompanies it-with occasional video examples that demonstrate what the body, face, mouth, jaw, and tongue look like when used with correct impostazione-the vocal emission of the one and only Italian school.
Caveat: I'm biased in favor of baritones and baritone literature, but if you want to learn about and listen to all the greatest singers in the old-school tradition, explore this spreadsheet (voice parts are separated by tabs): bit.ly/2W4qmE3
