I miracoli vocali del grandissimo Pippo Di Stefano... suscitava simpatia il vederlo, ascoltarlo mentre si infervorava nel discorso. Sentirlo cantare era qualcosa di più, perché la sua voce nel canto, si accendeva di un fascino irresistibile con la sua interpretazione riconoscibilissima ,unica , fatto di naturale bellezza e di tantissima dolcezza e queste registrazioni live fanno comprendere a chi non sa!
He had a unique, recognizable voice. Something about the timbre, the passion, the artistry. One (I) can't always recognize other great tenors, but I can always recognize the great di Stefano.
Oh, come on! All you would-be critics. Just listen to the man! Divine voice. Full of love and all his heart. The perfect tenor sound. So he didn't "protect" his voice. He just sang like an angel. And maybe for only a few years. But so what? Just listen and enjoy!
heard him around 1980 well past his prime grabbed his neck with both hands once - I'm with you it was a mountain of velvet even then! Oh to have heard him do Faust in his prime!
Pippo di Stefano oltre alla sua straordinaria voce interpretativa, che accarezzava l'anima x chi la possiede, ma ha il grandissimo merito di aver svecchiato, l'immagine del cantante lirico.
I love his natural voice coming from the depth of his soul. I heard him in Turandot at la Scala in 1959 when I was only 15 years old. I was so in awe that I was at la Scala with all its glory, that I barely could concentrate on the music (Turandot was Birgit Nilsson). But even more joy for me was that in the same week I attended an other opera, Hercules (Handel) with who? Franco Corelli! I fell in love right away, and I'm still in love with him.
you should have heard Callas. You missed a lot the best opportunity ever. Although it's still legendary that you heard the iconic Nilsson, Corelli and Di stefano live
@@Matthew9.__ I was only 15 years old, my mother took me there since we love (loved) opera (my mother introduced me to opera when I was five years old - this is true - and we went to Italy from a poor communist country, so these opera we saw meant a world to us. We were fortunate to get tickets as a present form an acquaintance. This was the only way to being able to attend a performance at la Scala. Concerning Maria Callas, she might not have even been in Milan these two weeks. They sang everywhere, they traveled. But yes, if I had the opportunity to hear Callas, or would have probably been the greatest thing in my life (after my grandchildren). But I saw Corelli who was and remained my love forever.
I heard the most wonderful audio recording of Cavalleria Rusticana with both Maria Callas and Giuseppe di Stefano. I never thought that I would get to hear him sing Turridu. Miracle of miracles. There they both were: Callas and di Stefano. The best recording of that opera. It was late. I was tired. I had a lot of work ahead of me the next day. Oh screw it I thought. So I listened in joy for the entire opera. With no regrets.
If de Stefano had not been a great tenor, Callas would not have worked with him. I always loved him, musicality, passion, tenderness, solid technique. Beautiful artist.
The tenor singers today have technique ,and they all sound the same , no ring in their voices ,all sound muffled . He was a natural ,and revered in his time.
I tenori bravi erano e sono molti, ma Di Stefano era unico. Uno dei pochi che mentre cantava non c'era bisogno del libretto o di uno schermo con le parole scritte. Non aveva bisogno della tecnica che per dire "o" doveva pronunciare "a"
Он уникален тем как показал всем своим творчеством, что оказывается тенор может знать о чём он поёт, а не тупо любоваться собой, своим голосом. Его рубато очень логично, так как всегда исходит от образа его героя, а не от прихоти очередного "красавца тенора". Техника его вокала на высшем уровне, а идеальных нет и не будет, пока не появится ещё одна чудесная Мария Каллас. Изучайте её технику Дыхания, стремитесь познать элементы. А успех прийдёт в стремлении.!
A great and yes among the all time greats. I developed a new respect for his talent when I heard the 1950 Salute Demure from Faust in San Francisco when he held a high C5 for 10-11 seconds and decrescendo it to an exquisite pianissimo. As great a career he had it could have been greater had he made some slight changes, waiting longer to become involved in certain roles
Para eso hay que tener una gran técnica y para "hablar cantando" también. Y eso lo hacía Di Stefano. Yo soy Krausista pero también se admirar a otros grandísimos tenores y, sin duda, Pippo lo fue. Y no sólo como tenor lírico que era. Aquí podemos escucharlo en el aria de La Forza. Los únicos spintos o spinto/dramáticos que podrían competir con el en este aria son Del Mónaco y Corelli. El resto de "especialistas", a su lado, no tienen nada que hacer. Kraus era perfecto, pero Pippo "embrujaba" con su canto.
Could you tell me if Callas and Distefano sang Butterfly together/ or recorded it?!..I can imagine. Del Monaco singing Turandot..but with Callas?!. ,GE
Igual no era el más técnico pero su calida voz lo compensaba. María no habría cantado tanto con él si no hubiera sido tan grande. La mejor pareja, para mí, sobre el escenario.
@@shirleyrombough8173 Di Stefano com Callas não tem igual na Lá Boheme, Manon Lescaut, Rigolleto, Norman and others. Aquela Gioconda com A Milanov, Rosalind Ellias , Robert Merrill, inigualável. Já Del Mônaco em Il Trovatore, Forza do Destino, Othello, Andréia Chenier são dele. Selecionar as melhores gravações de Óperas não é difícil. Aí entrariam outrs grandes nomes. É o caso da Cavalleria Rusticana com Yussi Bjorling e a Tebaldi. Mas estou conhecendo ótimos nomes após Intrnet. Os meios oficiais de comunicação são de muito baixo nível. Não esquecer também as Zarzuelas.

My favourite Italian lyric tenor!
One of the very best

Condivido appieno il commento di Verasantarelli...Pippo era veramente una persona meravigliosa!!!
I miracoli vocali del sempre inimitabile grandissimo Pippo!
Oh mon dieu. This is why I love opera.
What a singer!! The voice is absoluty beaty and power!! So much chest and timbre!
Legendary.
What a fabulous voice he had, thank you Marx 7811.
Unico, inimitabile,immenso
È unico!
sublime😢
Pippo di Stefano oltre alla sua straordinaria voce interpretativa, che accarezzava l'anima x chi la possiede, ma ha il grandissimo merito di aver svecchiato, l'immagine del cantante lirico.
What did he do to ‘rejuvenate’ the image of an opera singer?? Did he plan and develop his career over time or was it
The Maestro is quoted as saying "I never made a plan in my life."
Grande, grande, grande!!! Quanta emozione!
At his best, before about 1955, Pippo is one of the great tenors of the century. Later on he is still one of the most exciting/
What a Turridu he would have been. I wonder if he ever sang Cavalleria.
He did sing Cavalieria, with Callas. It's on CZcams.
@shirleyombough8173 1953 alla Scala con Callas e Panerai.direttore Serafin

There is a deli in Florida known as Corelli's Pantry owned and run by cousins of Franco Corelli.

The pianissimi. The pianissimi.
VOZ EXTRAORDINARIA, UNICA. NO CANSA ESCUCHARLA.
Un genio de la interpretación vocal. Un intérprete único de la ópera en su cuerda. Bravísimo Pippo...
I love him. Definitely the best ever Tenor.Thank you for posting.
His voice was unsurpassed. A testament to the hights of beauty the human voice can achieve.
Mi querido Maestro Pippo, una fuente de energía y pasión haciendo derroche de Facultades.
what a beautiful voice. Thank you so much for sharing dear Marx 7811
If de Stefano had not been a great tenor, Callas would not have worked with him. I always loved him, musicality, passion, tenderness, solid technique. Beautiful artist.
Whatever his assets, a solid technique was not one of them.
Neither was discipline.
The tenor singers today have technique ,and they all sound the same , no ring in their voices ,all sound muffled . He was a natural ,and revered in his time.
What is this music? How gorgeous, out of this world. The best of opera. Can someone tell me what it is?
The list is above. click on more. @@shirleyrombough8173

Explain.
Tú sabes que pronunciaba"a" porque el dios del canto" lo explico, pero tú oias Tosca, aunque EL pronunciara Tasca.
This is one of Pippo's early versions of this wonderful aria

Era un.fora de serie
Di Stefano was the greatest of them all, no doubt about it !
“Fxx dox a Ha, ha, ha, ha
“Greatest of them all”, I doubt it. No discipline and a tendency to blow out his voice. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Thanks for the humor.
There is no point for discussion when a person makes that type of comment.

They sang a Butterfly in Chicago in 1955. Unfortunately it was not recorded.

Em muitas Óperas ele com a Callas são imbatíveis.
of course..D'Stefano was my favorite Tenor..He and Corelli were the greatest..They complimented Callas the most.. Love them❤
Callas called him "My only colleague." She also said that "he sang like a god."
Mai sentito cantar le parole e parlar le note come pippo
Já nesta ária da Força do Destino acho Del Mônaco superior. Na ária Ciello e mare, Di Stefano é o melhor de todos.
No. As talented as del Monaco is, he cannot touch di Stefano. No one can.
How did I have good fortune to have wandered into this concert by the great di Stefano? I could listen to him all night

Sou grande admirador do Di Stefano. Mas esta ária é do Del Mônaco. O Ciello e Mare é do Di Stefano.
