Apollo Granforte & Hilde Monti - Ciel! mio padre! [Aida] - 1928

Granforte recorded bits of Aida earlier (like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR0i7wklsvs), but here we get to hear the full spectrum of his voice on an electrical recording of the duet.

This channel is primarily about vocal emission—aural examples of basically correct singing, correct impostazione—chiaroscuro, vowel clarity, firm and centered pitch, correct vibrato action, absence of throatiness or thickness, sounds free from constriction and from the acoustic noise that accompanies it—with occasional video examples that demonstrate what the body, face, mouth, jaw, and tongue look like when used with correct impostazione—the vocal emission of the one and only Italian school.

Caveat: I'm biased in favor of baritones and baritone literature, but if you want to learn about and listen to all the greatest singers in the old-school tradition, explore this spreadsheet (voice parts are separated by tabs): https://bit.ly/2W4qmE3
