Regardless of what anyone may think about his mental health, Bonisolli had guts. He was so confident in his voice and his abilities. Most people don't recognize that in a concert performance like this a singer is fully exposed to his audience, with none of the props or supporting cast to cover over mistakes and cracks. To take such a chance in singing a high D-flat at the end of such a loved aria or song takes tremendous courage and confidence. Sure he had vocal faults, but he gave his all in every performance, and that's why audiences loved him. No one like him today!

Well, this concert took place in Vienna in 1986 and it was organized by private friends. This aria was Franco´s way to say "thank you" to the crowd. Music is emotional. Franco was very emptional, sometimes too much. But he did what he could to satisfy the people- in every performance. Maybe some are jealous cause their favorite tenors could not sing like Franco did.
Well you can't judge the performance on one note. This rendition is masterful even before the high Db and the spontaneity of the audiences reaction is clearly a sign they have been touched by an artist and not just impressed by a high note.

The Sheldon Cooper of opera! Totally crazy but a musical genius! The man had no vocal bad habits and what is the harm of singing an unwritten high d-flat at the end? The great song is after all written by Lehar and tailored for Richard Tauber who didn't have more than an adequate b-flat top. If the aria is ended down alla Gedda, etc., that's fine but really here the high d-flat is every bit as appropriate as the long string of tenors who recorded the piece with lower big finishes. Music, even great music must be entertaining as well as inspiring. He didn't even melt down here!

I know Franco is a divisive tenor, breeding heated discussions of love and contempt. All opinions aside, the fact that he does create such controversy reminds us how unique he was. Whatever he was, no one else was like him and for that reason I keep returning to him like a breath of fresh air from the "standard" lot of tenors. I appreciate the confidence and fire in his soul that many singers today lack. There is something intoxicating about a man that sings with abandon... No care of critics or boundaries. For better or worse, who can say? But NEVER boring.... never...

He didn't have a mental illness. Part of his personality is just he's Italian! And why should everyone be the same? It's beautiful that he was such a unique man, and one of the greatest tenors of all time. And I mean, the crowd goes nuts for the D flat! And the rest of the aria is absolutely beautiful!! I can't see how anyone would have fault with this rendition, though I understand having a soft spot for the original rendition(s). I know that in my mind no one will ever sing certain songs better than my favorites, even though many have sung those songs as good if not better if I was listening without bias. My 2 cents.

His electrifying, powerful and high energy performances are legendary. To the purist Bonnisoli will be remembered as a showoff but to the casual observer he sounded great. He may have added some extra highs of his own BUT in the upper register he was quite at home. Few could hit the highs with the ease that Franco did.

At least in German. I don't know much about him or his career, but an Italian tenor singing in German is really something. For a split second when he was going up to the high D it almost sounded like Schmidt. Not necessarily over the top, he was just showing off a little at the end. I liked Tucker singing this but I don't think he ever did in German. For German versions I like Schock's, which also had a higher note than written at the end (but not a D, maybe a B or C, I don't remember).

Purtroppo non ci sono più i direttori che valorizzano le voci. Oggi ci si limita all'ansia del "tempo", senza capire che gli artisti interpretano (concertando col direttore, certamente) e quindi non si può dirigere nella stessa maniera per tutti i cantanti. I direttori di una volta (cito Santi perché ho avuto il piacere di lavorarci) valorizzavano gli artisti e si adeguavano alle loro esigenze. Una voce grande, ad esempio, ha sicuramente più difficoltà a tenere un tempo veloce rispetto ad una vocina. E' un discorso troppo lungo. Detto questo, Bonisolli è stato un grande e magari ce ne fossero.

That's why he was a success, not because of his C.

He had a very consistent sound in the top from F# to Db (in his prime). He was not a C tenor, no, but he had a very good C. Bjorling also.

Well, I have to admit the high D (or Db) was terrific, although at other times it could be a bit dicey (check out his Rigoletto aria). However, for this aria I agree with Schmidt and Tauber as 2 of the best. I would also include Gedda for an his mastery of beautiful tone, perfect style, and dynamic control. He did not do the high Db, although he had the best high notes in the business. There is a posting of him doing this later in life with his technique and voice still beautifully intact.
Bjoerling ducked the top Cs when he was old and sick just as Pavarotti did. Jussi had a heart failure episode just before the curtain of Faust at the Met in his last year alive. He went on and sang a wonderful High C. This is a famous recording. It is described in Merrill book. He should be forgiven for ocassionally skipping a few Cs. Bjoerling vocalized up to an F. He sang Arnold on stage (alas only in Sweden) something Pavarotti never did.

Bonisolli was a real high note tenor in a way that Pavarotti wasn't. He is connected to the Filipeschi or Esclais traditions. Twenty years ago I used to take the top down and play his Italian song CD. He took all the high options. He would hit the high notes - I would hit the turbo. BTW I don't take that pazzo stuff all that seriously. The other Franco - Corelli - acted crazier when I heard them both live. He just seems exhuberant.

@Agorante it depends on what you mean by a great C if you like the lyric tenor sound it was perfect. corelli has a different voice entirely. tonally pavarotti had the most balanced sound from bottom to top out of any tenor and his technique was flawless. if you just want sheer power for a high C then go with corelli. EVERY voice thins out as you ascend because the chords are stretching to create the pitch, thats part of the physics of the voice. personally i like pavarottis C > any other tenor.

Corelli of course had a much more baritonal sound than Pavarotti. When I heard him in recital he probably never sang above a G in the first half of the concert. But he regularly sang the extreme acuti. He has recordings where he sings the D above High C. He was studying Arnold just before he retired. He sang Poliuto early. Live Pavarotti's Pira was not very impressive. The voice thinned out at the top. His top C didn't make much impact. Pavarotti had a great voice but not a great C.

@GermanOperaSinger you're kidding. pavarotti's C's were more legit, balanced and consistant with his voice. i am a fan of both gedda and kraus but their high notes don't compare. kraus's tone goes from a depthless bright sound to completely strident and white on top and ghedda uses mix above C. pavarotti had better tone throughout his voice that all those tenors combined, only bjorling and bonisolli come close in my opinion for color and similarly sized instrument.

At the time Pavarotti said of his Tonio that he was the the only tenor with "a voice" who could take all the High Cs. That was true then. Lighter voices had always done that part before. But Pavarotti never sang as high as his contemporary Gedda, or even his predecessor Bjoerling. Corelli sang higher too. Pavarotti did sing higher than Vickers, Domingo, or Carreras. Real high note tenors like Filipeschi got away with singing badly by having terrific top notes. Esclais also had an ugly voice.

I think you're ridiculous. When you sing at least like Bonisolli, have the courage to denigrate him.

@bigus No, no, no. Don't give me that relativist hokum. I said Pavarotti's pira wasn't much in the theater. In the theater the cabaletta is supposed to cap the scene. It is supposed to be exciting. It wasn't. It was disappointing - ask anyone who was there. BTW Kraus was fine live up to C. But the voice spread badly at C sharp. Gedda only sang Fra Diavolo while I was in SF. I skipped it because I didn't like the music. Regrets.

Anybody knows the cause of his dead, was it heart attack?
