Mario Lanza - Che gelida manina free for downloading

I believe this beautiful aria by Mario Lanza was voted the best operatic recording for the year (1949)-if I am not mistaken. A real masterpiece by an outstanding singer. We lost him far too soon. Always remembered--never forgotten. May he rest in peace.

what a voice this man had. A joy to the ear, a joy to the heart.  I wish I had seen him live.

there is no doubt in my eyes had Mario stepped out of the silver screen onto the opera stage he would have been the greatest romantic opera singer of all time just my opinion

The editor of this montage has captured the essence of both the aria and Mario Lanza.

I listen to many tenors, but his voice penetrates further... I don't know why!

The great Lanza, not only sings this aria, He opens his heart. A masterpiece by the great artist.

I have heard some tenors in my eighty three years on this planet..but Mario is & was the greatest of them all. You will live for ever Mario in our hearts"

Mario Lanza's voice exhibits a BRILLIANCE, especially in its high notes, which makes it uniquely Mario Lanza's - it cannot be mistaken for anybody else's.

The greatest tenor and God given voice to Mario Lanza! Beautiful passion, diction, phrasing and so naturally effortless! There will never be another Voice like Mario Lanza. Your voice and legacy lives forever!!

The Maestro Himself MARIO LANZA The GREATEST!!

For me, still the most amazing voice I've ever heard..and, like many, Lanza was my entry into operatic music. So much emotion...so much strength in that voice. bardaghohio 2 weeks ago
