Recondita armonia! Di bellezze diverse!
? bruna Floria… l’ardente amante mia!
E te, beltade ignota! Cinta de chiome e bionde…
Tu azzuro hai l’occhio… Tosca ha l’occhio nero…
L’arte nel suo mistero…
Le diverse bellezze insiem confonde!
Ma nel ritrar costei… Il mio solo pensiero!
Ah, mio solo pensiero!
Tosca, sei tu!
i have been listening to Mario Lanza when i was hardly a teenager. Now i am 62. His voice first captured my heart and i have been searching for his voice when i was in USA and Australia.
Great actor. Great voice, certainly. He performed very well in the Hollywood movie “The Great Caruso”. But to compare the depth of Caruso to that of Lanza is not a fair comparison. He was what he was and Enrico Caruso was what he was.
