An Operatic Odyssey, with Luigi Boccia
Strong Songs
The Freakish Nature of Tenors
Diario's voice is legendary. He can be heard in the Improviso from Andres Chinaire by Giordano. Diario starts in a warm voice, but at the same time so powerful. The power that this man could produce with this voice was legendary and we'll hear it in a second when he goes up to B-flat.
Special guest Luigi Boccia takes Kirk on a magical journey through the world of the opera tenor, from Caruso and Lauri Volpi to Di Stefano and Pavarotti.
Featuring performances by Luciano Pavarotti, Giuseppe Di Stefano, Enrico Caruso, Franco Corelli, Giacomo Lauri Volpi, Jussi Björling, Sergei Lemeshev, and Jon Vickers.
