http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/ Recent Videos Video   De kleuren zwart, rood, crème en goud overheersen in deze Macbeth productie van The Royal Opera House. Deze Verdi opera is gebaseerd op het Schotse toneelstuk van William Shakespeare. Macbeth wordt gemanipuleerd door een hele horde van sluwe heksen, die hem met hun voorspellingen aan het wankelen brengen. Simon Keenlyside maakte in deze uitvoering zijn debuut als een atletische en piekerende Macbeth, met Liumyla Monastryrska als zijn Vrouwe. Deze prachtige productie wordt gedirigeerd door Antionio Pappano en ontstijgt het niveau van alleen geluid en woede ver.

The following text I've "stolen" from transformingart's text at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuTMAU0N6Gk Caruso sings Mario Costa's composition, "Sei Morta Nella Vita Mia" (Your Heart No Longer Beats for Me) for Victor in 1918. Vincenzo Bellezza on the piano. This is one of the rarest recording that Caruso made for Victor company, since this recording was never released commercially. According to the Victor files, Calvin Child, the head of Victor's artist department, thought this recording "sounds too life-like and too good", so he demanded to cancel the issue of this record. Like he said, this recording is really well-recorded, and maybe Calvin Child feared that the public would demand more much higher quality recordings which was hardly achieved in those days. This recording was first released in 1947, as one of the RCA Victor Christmas present for the Victor salesmen and dealers. It was pressed on a red vinyl, which is similar to that of "Heritage Series" records material, but much harder, enough to be played on an acoustic machines. Later it was released in 1949 by American Gramophone Society (AGS) label (shellac pressing).]]> Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:30:06 GMT http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/videos/bekijkvideo/2466/enrico-caruso/enrico-caruso-sings-costa-s-sei-morta-nella-vita-mia-1918  Enrico Caruso (born Errico Caruso; February 25, 1873 August 2, 1921).

In February 1748 Ciampi was composer and the music director of the company which presented the first season of Italian comic operas in London at the Kings Theatre. Tre giorni son che Nina (also attributed to Pergolesi) became the hit song in the opera Gli tre cicisbei ridicoli. Tre giorni son che Nina is one of the best-known arias of the Italian Baroque. The lyrics refer to the concern of a man for his beloved Nina, who is in bed seriously ill. This is a common topic in the popular music of the period. Tre giorni son che Nina In letto se ne sta. Il sonno l'assassina Svegliatela, per pietà! E cimbali e timpani e pifferi, Svegliatemi Ninetta Perchè non dorma più E mentre il sior dottore A visitarla va, Ninetta per amore In letto se ne sta. --------------------------- For three days Nina has stayed in her bed.

With piano accompaniment by Salvatore Cottone. Caruso created the role of Nemorino the first time in February 1901 at La Scala in Milan. The conductor was the famous Toscanini, but the notoriously critical and reserved audience of La Scala did not react at all ... until Caruso started singing - and he basically turned the performance from failure to success. The audience went wild and Caruso was compelled to repeat "Una furtiva lagrima" three times. When Toscanini came back stage to go before the curtain with the artists, he embraced Caruso, then turned to the manager of La Scala, Giulio Gatti-Casazza, and said: "Per dio! Se questo Napoletano continua a cantare così, farà parlare di sè il mondo intero." (By Heaven! If this Neapolitan continues to sing like this, he will make the whole world talk about him.)]]> Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:29:45 GMT http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/videos/bekijkvideo/2458/enrico-caruso/una-furtiva-lagrima-enrico-caruso-11th-of-april-1902  Enrico Caruso - Vesti La Giubba]]> Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:29:43 GMT http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/videos/bekijkvideo/2457/enrico-caruso/enrico-caruso-vesti-la-giubba  Enrico Caruso: Puccini: Tosca - Recondita Armonia]]> Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:29:40 GMT http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/videos/bekijkvideo/2456/enrico-caruso/enrico-caruso-puccini-tosca-recondita-armonia  Enrico Caruso: Puccini: Bohemia - Che Gelida Manina]]> Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:29:35 GMT http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/videos/bekijkvideo/2455/enrico-caruso/enrico-caruso-puccini-bohemia-che-gelida-manina  Enrico Caruso: Georges Bizet - Carmen]]> Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:29:31 GMT http://www.westfrisiacantat.nl/videos/bekijkvideo/2454/enrico-caruso/enrico-caruso-georges-bizet-carmen  The Flower Song from Bizet's Carmen sung in Italian.

Antonio Scotto was the baritone. 14 March 2010 was only a week ago. Trivia: according to Victor, this recording was Take 1, which means it was technically 'live'. So yes, there are 'live' Caruso recordings after all! In fact, about 75-80% of all his recordings were done in only 1 or 2 takes.
