Saskia Giorgini - Schubert (Moment Musical n.2)
Live recorded by Markus Aubrecht in Vienna's empty Konzerthaus during the Covid-19 Lockdown, for the Konzerthaus' series "Moments Musicaux".
This was such a highly emotional moment, what miracle it is that such heavenly music exists and what a wonder that it can provide a bit of comfort to the soul during painful and sorrowful times.
Human suffering can get to such an incredible degree that it becomes almost unbearable, the tension that goes together with the most intimate sweet and tender giving-up feeling in this little Schubert piece tells everything about it.

Aristodemo Giorgini sings "A te, o Cara," from Bellini's I Puritani. 1905
Aristodemo Giorgini, 1879-1937 was a bel canto tenor trained in the grand style, and his singing is a welcome and unusual study of 19th century tenor singing. The following information on Giorgini (not easy to find) has been provided by Tim at dantitustimshu, a more than capable musical scholar!
Aristodemo Giorgini: Scott wrote about him in "The Record of Singing". Here's what Scott said: "Aristodemo Giorgini (1879-1937), another Neapolitan tenor, was perhaps not in the Anselmi class but at his best his singing has something of the same sweetness and charm. After studying at the Academia Santa Cecilia in Rome, he made an unsuccessful debut in 1903, following which he returned to Naples and there renewed his studies under Massimo Perelli.

Aristodemo Giorgini - Recondita armonia (G&T, 1904)
Aristodemo Giorgini (1879-1937) was a celebrated lyric tenor who enjoyed a quarter century career that encompassed opera, concerts and recordings. Born in Naples, he spent much of his childhood in Rome, where he sang as a treble with the Sistine Chapel Choir. After his voice broke, he was persuaded by his father to take a job as a salesman for an electrical supply house. As a teen, Giorgini sold his wares throughout Italy, but never lost interest in music. It was while doing his usual rounds that he began singing in the streets of Rome, attracting the attention of bass Romano Nanetti. Although Nanetti encouraged the young man to leave his job to pursue vocal studies, it was the tenor Francesco Marconi who secured a place for Giorgini at Rome’s Santa Cecilia Academy.

Aristodemo Giorgini, 1879-1937 was a bel canto tenor trained in the grand style, and his singing is a welcome and unusual study of 19th century tenor singing. The following information on Giorgini (not easy to find) has been provided by Tim at dantitustimshu, a more than capable musical scholar!
Aristodemo Giorgini: Scott wrote about him in "The Record of Singing". Here's what Scott said: "Aristodemo Giorgini (1879-1937), another Neapolitan tenor, was perhaps not in the Anselmi class but at his best his singing has something of the same sweetness and charm. After studying at the Academia Santa Cecilia in Rome, he made an unsuccessful debut in 1903, following which he returned to Naples and there renewed his studies under Massimo Perelli. When he re-appeared, at La Scala as Ernesto in 1905, he had a considerable success, and he returned there on several occasions; in 1901 he was Elvino to Storchio's Amina in a popular revival of Bellini's La Sonnambula. In these years he sang at most of the leading Italian houses, and at Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Warsaw, St Petersberg and Moscow. In the autumn of 1905 he appeared at Covent Garden succeeding de Marchi's Rodolfo opposite Melba's Mimi, singing a "gifted" Duke, and with Battistini as Don Giovanni his "pretty voice" was thought "of great service as Don Ottavio." In the US he sang with the Chicago Opera. His career continued until the later 1920s.
Giorgini made his first records in 1904; 24 years later he sang Rodolfo in a complete Boheme. As we hear it in Arturo's 'A te o cara', it is an attractive lyrical voice with a rapid but not unpleasant vibrato. The registers are well blended and he has no difficulty with the high C, though he is inclined to make too much of a feature of it and it does not rise smoothly out of the line. There is a want of really persuasive legato, or expressive phrasing; it is a sound but rather provincial interpretation."
(Michael Scott, THE RECORD OF SINGING, VOL. ONE: TO 1914, P. 130)

Aristodemo Giorgini (1879-1937) was a celebrated lyric tenor who enjoyed a quarter century career that encompassed opera, concerts and recordings. Born in Naples, he spent much of his childhood in Rome, where he sang as a treble with the Sistine Chapel Choir. After his voice broke, he was persuaded by his father to take a job as a salesman for an electrical supply house. As a teen, Giorgini sold his wares throughout Italy, but never lost interest in music. It was while doing his usual rounds that he began singing in the streets of Rome, attracting the attention of bass Romano Nanetti. Although Nanetti encouraged the young man to leave his job to pursue vocal studies, it was the tenor Francesco Marconi who secured a place for Giorgini at Rome’s Santa Cecilia Academy. Academic life did not agree with Giorgini, and he left the Academy after only a few months and returned to Naples. Despite his meager vocal study, Giorgini decided that he was ready for his stage debut. His hometown theater, the Teatro San Carlo, took a chance on the fledgling tenor and offered him a contract to sing Rodolfo in La Bohème, a role he shared with renowned tenors Alessandro Bonci and Giuseppe Krismer. His debut late in 1903 was nothing short of disastrous. His performance, particularly when compared to those of his esteemed colleagues, clearly suffered from his inexperience. Stage fright, from which he was to suffer during his entire career, was also very much in evidence. Needless to say, the critical response to his performance was scathing, and Giorgini withdrew from the scene to concentrate on further studies.
Following a year of intensive work with Massimino Petrilli, Giorgini made a second debut at the Teatro Faraggiana in Novara as Ernesto in Don Pasquale late in 1904. This time the response was overwhelmingly positive, and the young tenor’s career began to take off. In March of 1905, Giorgini made his La Scala debut, again as Ernesto and November saw Giorgini’s Covent Garden debut as the Duke in Rigoletto. He next travelled to Russia, where he appeared in St. Petersburg, Moscow and Kharkov. Giorgini’s Spanish debut took place at Madrid’s Teatro Real on February 13, 1907 as Alfredo in La Traviata. A week later, he debuted at Barcelona’s Liceo as Almaviva in Barbiere di Siviglia. Giorgini’s fame spread throughout Europe, with appearances in Florence, Rome, Palermo, Bari, Trieste, Lisbon, Warsaw, and Monte Carlo.
On January 15, 1913, Giorgini made his American debut as Rodolfo with the Chicago Grand Opera Company. The tenor remained in the U.S. until that fall, when he returned to Milan to sing Verdi’s Requiem in honor of the composer’s centenary. In December of that same year, Giorgini returned to the U.S. for appearances in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, Kansas City, St. Louis, Milwaukee, St. Paul, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, and Dallas. Upon his return to Italy at the close of the 1913/14 season, he attempted to resume his European career. However, war had erupted by summer’s end and Giorgini’s activities were interrupted, possibly due to military service. After the war was over, the tenor, by then nearing forty, found that the best days of his career were behind him. Although still in splendid voice, Giorgini was no longer in demand at the major theaters and found himself relegated to the provinces. He continued performing in opera and concert for another decade, including a tour of Belgium and Holland in the mid-1920s. Crippling stage fright, however, was always a concern, and often prevented the tenor from giving his best. The stress of maintaining a performing career was also having a detrimental effect on Giorgini’s health. Chronic stomach issues began to sideline him and in 1930, Giorgini underwent emergency surgery for an ulcer. With his career already in decline, the tenor decided to retire from the stage and devoted himself to teaching thereafter. Aristodemo Giorgini passed away in January of 1937 at the age of 57.
Aristodemo Giorgini’s repertoire of some two dozen operas was diverse, including such roles as Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor, Fernando in La Favorita, Arturo in I Puritani, Elvino in La Sonnambula, Carlo in Linda di Chamounix, Ottavio in Don Giovanni, Almaviva in Barbiere di Siviglia, Faust in Mefistofele, Nadir in Les Pêcheurs de Perles, Gennaro in Gioielli della Madonna, Enzo in La Gioconda, Loris in Fedora, Cavaradossi in Tosca, Turiddu in Cavalleria Rusticana and the title role in L’Amico Fritz. Giorgini’s recording career, launched in 1904, spanned a quarter of a century. He made dozens of discs for G&T, Pathé, Edison and HMV, including the very first full length recording of Puccini’s La Bohème in 1928. These recordings reveal a full lyric tenor with some of the characteristics of a spinto and a very musical approach to the music. Here, Giorgini sings “Recondita armonia” from Act I of Puccini’s Tosca. This recording was made in Milan for G&T in December of 1904.

In March of 1905, Giorgini made his La Scala debut, again as Ernesto and November saw Giorgini’s Covent Garden debut as the Duke in Rigoletto. He next travelled to Russia, where he appeared in St. Petersburg, Moscow and Kharkov. Giorgini’s Spanish debut took place at Madrid’s Teatro Real on February 13, 1907 as Alfredo in La Traviata. A week later, he debuted at Barcelona’s Liceo as Almaviva in Barbiere di Siviglia. Giorgini’s fame spread throughout Europe, with appearances in Florence, Rome, Palermo, Bari, Trieste, Lisbon, Warsaw, and Monte Carlo.
On January 15, 1913, Giorgini made his American debut as Rodolfo with the Chicago Grand Opera Company. The tenor remained in the U.S. until that fall, when he returned to Milan to sing Verdi’s Requiem in honor of the composer’s centenary. In December of that same year, Giorgini returned to the U.S. for appearances in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, Kansas City, St. Louis, Milwaukee, St. Paul, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, and Dallas. Upon his return to Italy at the close of the 1913/14 season, he attempted to resume his European career. However, war had erupted by summer’s end and Giorgini’s activities were interrupted, possibly due to military service. After the war was over, the tenor, by then nearing forty, found that the best days of his career were behind him. Although still in splendid voice, Giorgini was no longer in demand at the major theaters and found himself relegated to the provinces. He continued performing in opera and concert for another decade, including a tour of Belgium and Holland in the mid-1920s. Crippling stage fright, however, was always a concern, and often prevented the tenor from giving his best. The stress of maintaining a performing career was also having a detrimental effect on Giorgini’s health. Chronic stomach issues began to sideline him and in 1930, Giorgini underwent emergency surgery for an ulcer. With his career already in decline, the tenor decided to retire from the stage and devoted himself to teaching thereafter. Aristodemo Giorgini passed away in January of 1937 at the age of 57.
Aristodemo Giorgini’s repertoire of some two dozen operas was diverse, including such roles as Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor, Fernando in La Favorita, Arturo in I Puritani, Elvino in La Sonnambula, Carlo in Linda di Chamounix, Ottavio in Don Giovanni, Almaviva in Barbiere di Siviglia, Faust in Mefistofele, Nadir in Les Pêcheurs de Perles, Gennaro in Gioielli della Madonna, Enzo in La Gioconda, Loris in Fedora, Cavaradossi in Tosca, Turiddu in Cavalleria Rusticana and the title role in L’Amico Fritz. Giorgini’s recording career, launched in 1904, spanned a quarter of a century. He made dozens of discs for G&T, Pathé, Edison and HMV, including the very first full length recording of Puccini’s La Bohème in 1928. These recordings reveal a full lyric tenor with some of the characteristics of a spinto and a very musical approach to the music. Here, Giorgini sings “Recondita armonia” from Act I of Puccini’s Tosca. This recording was made in Milan for G&T in December of 1904.
