Lyrics & Translation:
Caro mio ben,
credimi almen,
senza di te
languisce il cor.

Il tuo fedel
sospira ognor.
Cessa, crudel,
tanto rigor!

My dear beloved,
believe me at least,
without you
my heart languishes.

Your faithful one
always sighs;
cease, cruel one,
so much punishment!

As a female voice teacher, I was searching for a tenor singing this song. I heard this and listened from start to finish! Bravo to such impeccable line in your voice and such musicality! This is a standard song that should be in every classical singer’s repertoire. The dynamics are wonderful and the voice control flawless. I hear singers sing this and they sing note to note. It’s all about support and feeling the note come out of the breath, connecting everything. Bravo to a song well sung. Anyone who clicked on the thumbs down button doesn’t know much about being a classically trained singer. I will show this to all my tenor voice students. Thanks for sharing!

I am a 15-year-old boy majoring in vocal music in an art high school in South Korea. I was deeply impressed by your rich voice. Thank you for your great song.

Years ago this was part of what my singing instructor had me learn. The glory of learning is that I know what he's doing - that he's enunciating the words so clearly without making them fussy, that he's controlling his breathing so well and supporting the sound so well it makes me weep. And (a bone of contention with my teacher): he's letting the dynamics create the feeling - such respect for the composer. I do like to sing it, but learning to sing it was the entry ticket to being able to appreciate what he's doing. It's funny - it's the opposite of ambition: maybe it's contentment. I don't need to sing it as well as he does, but I'm so happy to be ears for his voice.

The kind of voice that reduces one to tears. So beautiful.

What an incredibly natural gift. This voice was born in this man!

Some people call me a troll when I leave a comment about young singers. But this is very, very good. You have what has virtually disappeared today among classical singers — a beautiful voice.

I used this in a lesson last night with one of my voice students as an example of quality phrasing and diction. Bravissimo sir!

This was the first song my singing teacher gave me. This clip shows me why.
