The Voice Detective aka Gyaan Lyon is excited to launch today The\u00a0Voice Detective Show: a free monthly show where he interviews\u00a0<\/span>experts from all walks of life about anything and everything to do\u00a0<\/span>with the Voice and the Art of Bel Canto aka beautiful singing. What\u00a0<\/span>better day to launch the show than on the 151st anniversary of the\u00a0<\/span>birth of the great Italian tenor Enrico Caruso?<\/span><\/p>

Enrico Caruso was a once in a lifetime voice; one which captured the\u00a0imagination of generations of opera and popular music fans and\u00a0<\/span>performers alike. And it is fair to say in doing so, he became a\u00a0<\/span>household name and an inspiration to every tenor past and present.\u00a0<\/span>The Voice Detective humbly pays homage to him on this day.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The day of the launch of the show was selected as it’s also the birthday of the great Italian tenor Enrico Caruso.<\/span><\/p>

Enrico was not just a great singer, but a great colleague. Recordings of his voice in duets, trios, quartets and the famous sextet show how he used his vocal skill to enhance the whole effect, generously enabling his co-singers to shine at their best. Quoting just one of many examples noted by music connoisseur and critic J.B. Stearne, when recording with Melba, \u2018how gallantly (he) softens his notes so that the unearthly beauty of her high C can rise, free, like Ariel, to the elements.\u2019 <\/span>[1]<\/span><\/sup><\/a><\/p>

Contemporaries of Caruso, who were fortunate enough to witness his performances speak of not just the power of his voice, but above all, \u2018it was a matter of quality and style, the natural beauty, the manliness of it\u2026..They speak of the sweetness of his tone, the naturalness of his art and its sincerity.\u2019<\/span>[2]<\/span><\/sup><\/a> We can only wonder at what it would have been like.<\/span><\/p>

Caruso died all too young. In his excellent article on Caruso, Stearne acutely remarks that \u2018Caruso\u2019s fate was a tragic portent. The new phenomenon of mass-media was largely the cause. Caruso\u2019s records sold throughout the world, and in the brilliance of their forward, full-bodied tone, they led people to expect the impossible, most particularly a voice of ear-splitting volume. Caruso knew what was expected of him, and gave prodigiously to meet the expectations\u2026. He gave it – the gift of song, and also a rich bounty of his generous nature – but became a victim of his own fame. The undermining of his health would nowadays be seen clearly as stress-induced, a large part of it derived from the unprecedented sale of his voice on records.\u2019<\/span>[3]<\/span><\/sup><\/a><\/p>

The remarkable consistency of the \u2018impossible\u2019 in Enrico Caruso\u2019s vocal performances can be attested by none other than Giacomo Puccini, who in a letter to Tito Ricordi was able to write, \u2018Caruso is the usual marvellous Des Grieux,\u2026\u2019<\/span>[4]<\/span><\/sup><\/a> Just like that – how could Caruso be anything less! <\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div>
