BENIAMINO GIGLI lyrics : "Mi Par D'Udir Ancora"

Mi par d'udir ancora Ascoso in mezzo ai fior, La voce sua canora Sospirare l'amor ! O notte di carezze, Gioir che non ha fin, O sovvenir divin, Folli ebbrezze, bel sogno! Sogno d'amor! Delle stelle del cielo Al tremolante balen, La vegg'io d'ogni velo Render libero il sen ! O notte di carezze, Gioir che non ha fin, O sovvenir divin, Folli ebbrezze, bel sogno ! Sogno d'amor ! Divin sovvenir, O sogno divin !

- "He was endowed by nature with what is arguably the most beautiful tenor voice of all time."

- "Gigli had an almost invariable technique for singing a song or aria. He always looked for the beauty inherent in the music, and he played first and foremost to that beauty, milking it for every ounce of potential."
- "Tenors come and tenors go, but Gigli is forever; eternal evidence of the fact that while admirers of the arts may be moved by many things, they are moved by nothing quite so much as by beauty."
