On stage he had sung Cavaradossi for the very first time in 1921 at Madrid, Teatro Real, then in many cities of Spain during that year. Corelli sang the same aria I referred to previously not in 1957 but 1967, at the concert held in Parma. He was 46. From late 1950s to early 1960s Corelli was under Lauri-Volpi's masterly tutorship. He was present at the unveiling of Lauri-Volpi's head statue in the hall of the Met in 1965 accompanied by Giovanni Martinelli. The dates fit well. Joseph, Tenor Watch Host |
