@@aetion The reason is this: Caruso studied the entire Otello opera. But the Met producers were afraid that his voice would be destroyed by the nuances he used. And MDM puts Tosca and Pagliacci as an example. Well, two operas where Caruso left all his heart. MDM says that Giuseppe Danise, a baritone who was present at the Caruso del Otello demo, assures that it was something that had never been heard. To this, MDM adds that the idolization of Tamagno (the first Otello) was another impediment. Greetings from Peru. Postscript: I don't know English. I used google translate 🤪

Two quotes. The great conductor, Sir John Barbirolli, appearing on the British radio program "Desert Island Discs" chose this as one of the six records he would take with him if he was ever a cast-away. Asked to narrow his choice to one he chose this and said it was not only his favourite but he deemed it the greatest record ever made. J.B. Steane, connoisseur and critic of vocal recordings calls this "one of the most exciting of records" in his voluminous book "The Grand Tradition".

Without a doubt the best recording of this duet ever made!! All the rest pale by comparison. Both these singers were at their peak when this was made. I am so sorry that they didnt make more duet recordings--each one inspired the other--and as you prob. know Ruffo made more money than Caruso did in S. America and other venues because of the size of his voice--no amplification in those days--but Ruffo himself even admitted that he had blown his voice out by the time he was in his early forties..but now who cares--they were the two Titans of Vocalism on this day and gave us their all!! God Bless them both for sharing!!

I agree with your opinion. In addition, while Ruffo had blown his voice early in his career, Caruso damaged himself with heavy smoking. The difference was Ruffo's damage was quite apparent and Caruso's was limited to a darkening of his voice and an early death. It would have been wonderful if the two had stayed healthy into the electric recording era.
@kenakey1969

hobo1975 The tobacco habit was the means by which Caruso damaged himself. As for the smoking damaging his voice...maybe not ... I agree that darkening of the voice in many cases is a good thing. Perhaps, if some of the darkening was from his smoking, we might consider that a good thing. I do not think that Caruso's voice declined as he aged. As a singer Caruso was improving over time. His best recording IMO is Ombra mai fu recorded in 1920. The transition from the trill into a short run at the end of the aria is exquisite. It is his best display of agility and is bettered by only a few. such as Herman Jadlowker John McCormack . My point is that two glorious voices never made it to the electric recoding era because of unfortunate choices made by their hosts.... From listening to the recordings of Ruffo, his voice, to my ears was best before the electric recording era began. I think that Ruffo's voice sounds best in a recording of Largo al factotum in 1912,if memory serves me right. It definitely shows his agility which he never lost.

hobo1975 I think there is finally agreement. As I see it Caruso was the greatest tenor and Ruffo the greatest baritone... As to who was the better singer... that's a tough one... I never considered who was the better. Both had exceptional agility but both pale compared to Herman Jadlowker who I consider to be the most agile tenor that I have heard. I am going to listen Caruso and Ruffo again and consider who is the better.... Jadlowker may have been the most agile tenor but he had problems with breath control and his voice was not the most appealing to me.

And, if you hear it, you can tell why...

After Domingo sang Cassio in 1962 in Hartford Connecticut with Del Monaco as Otello, Domingo stated that he would never be able to sing Otello the way MDM did. It's fine that you prefer PD, but in the Esultate, Ora Per Sempre, and Si Per Ciel, MDM had that wielding sound with great high notes and endless breath. Perhaps PD sang the lyric portions of the opera quite well, but cutting phrases short and squeezing in the passaggio and higher always seem to be a problem for Domingo. I saw both live and MDM was quite superior. Enjoy
