맑고 박력있는 질리의 서정적 이태리가곡이 멋집니다. 이 벨칸토의 진수를 듣고 있노라면 멀리 이태리의 풍경과 냄새가 느껴집니다. 아름답습니다. 지중해 바람이 간단없이 이곳 대구까지 불어오는듯 느껴진답니다. 이태리 가곡이, 질리가 있기에 제 영혼이 맑아지는 듯 하니 이보다 멋질 수가 없군요. K-pop보다도 저는 이태리가곡을 더 좋아합니다. T J Choi, Daegu, Korea

What an extraordinary tenor. Today, we can not seem to come across tenors we have missed from the days of 50s and 60s and 70s. Gigli was to be mentioned as one of the greats many times. Thank you!

As a 75 year old person I want you to know that very few of the “greats” managed to live the parts they sung, while they were singing. The Neapolitans came from Napoli (Naples), a very rough town that the country was ashamed of, hence the other Italians tried to ignore the starvation and the gang controlled living conditions, etc. Tthe residents really strongly felt the Neapolitan tragedy. And the singers could feel it over and over while they performed. Caruso was a simple family man with a voice from Heaven. And Gigli could also sing so expressively, even though his voice couldn’t come close to Caruso. There’s never been anyone who could hold a candle to Caruso. All the opera singers know. Napoli was both a pitiful and a magical place if you could sing.

Thank you so much for sharing this treasure trove. I had heard the name but had not quite realised his greatness.

Anne it is lovely to hear from a person of good taste in music...My first job & first pay I spent on a 12 inch 78 record of GIGLI singing Nesum Dorma I had heard it on a radio program called World Famous Tenors...I was so impressed with it, I bought Jussi Bjorling singing the same aria with my next pay...

MARAVILLOSO,!Mi papa siempre me hablaba de El,le encantaba,por eso mi amor por lo Lirico,me apasiona!Gracias!

Aural gold... effortless, wonderful... my soul soars when he hits those notes. What would I be, if I had a choice, a tenor, a classical pianist, a classical solo violinist... ALL of these but most of all... an opera tenor, a singer, the human voice, it speaks to our very souls!

Meu irmão, Rocha, é fã desse grande tenor. O Rocha, não tem a técnica de um Gigle, mas se tivesse ido para um conservatório, estudado e treinado a música lírica, teria sido um grande tenor. Valdeci Almeida, conhecido carinhosamente por ROCHA, hoje com seus 85 anos, ainda canta bonito, algumas canções líricas! Deus te abençoe, meu irmão, tenho orgulho de você, que sempre deu exemplo de uma pessoa de caráter e ilibada conduta de um homem de bem e de elevação espiritual!

Gracias amo a Beniamino con toda mí alma

Wonderful selection, although I have to say that #7 "Marta" is not an Italian but a Cuban song, and here he sings it in good Spanish. I believe Gigli was also born in Rome, but he also sings some Neopolitan classics here with the right feel. I remember reading in Pavarotti's autobiography how as a kid, he saw Gigli rehearsing for a concert in Modena and then went up to him and said he also wanted to be a tenor like him. Gigli encouraged the young boy to follow his dreams. When Pavarotti asked how much study it would take to be a great tenor, Gigli at his advanced age said "I am still studying to this day." And that really let an impression on the young Luciano. Quanto è meraviglioso. Grazie mille per aver reso più facile per tutti noi ascoltare il grande Beniamimo Gigli.
