Week 8 Assignment Part B:
Compare these three recordings of Verdi’s aria, “Celeste Aida”:
Franco Corelli - https://youtu(dot)be/j8gkIPg7pw0
Placido Domingo - https://youtu(dot)be/ot4iH8ggShA
Carlo Bergonzi - https://youtu(dot)be/VUDhFl_dYzg
Each of these singers has the same voice type, so they sound similar, but they also have differences. Listen to these recordings and discuss what similarities and differences you hear. In one paragraph, describe the quality of the voices and what you like/don’t like about each performance. (There is no right/wrong answer. )
