"On Hitting the High C"
The
high Cs are at the top of the list of to-die-for moments in an opera.
But are they always in keeping with the composer's original intent?
NOT SO, declares SALVATORE, illustrating with real-life examples the
perils that await a tenor who decides NOT to conform. In this segment
of the interview, he also explains why in a performance of Verdi's Il
Trovatore held at La Scala in commemoration of the composer's death
centenary, he did not sing the expected high Cs.
