A comparison of these later recordings of Caruso’s with those made back in 1902 and 1903 PALESTRINA makes it evident how his voice had darkened and grown more massive over the years. The M I S S A O S A C R U M C O N V I V I U M advances in the recording process naturally emphasise this change, but in any case such was Caruso’s technical mastery that even when his voice was at its heaviest it never became unwieldy. His very last stage appearance was in a role which had been a favourite from his earliest days, Nemorino in L’elisir d’amore, which calls for great vocal dexterity; and anyone who doubts Caruso’s ability to sing rapidcoloratura in his latter days should listen to the cadenza at the end of his recording ofMia Piccirella from the operaSalvator Rosa, made in September 1919. I would like to end these reflections, though, with a glance at one more track from the current selection. This is the duet entitledCrucifix, written by the eminent French baritone Jean-Baptiste Faure, in which Caruso is partnered by Marcel Journet, one of the most celebrated basses of the day. Journet’s is the first voice that we hear, and very fine it is too; but when Caruso enters the sound is one of incomparable beauty, rich and majestic but astonishingly gentle too.

His constant innovation and perpetual pursuit of excellence produced watches of such high quality that they became renowned symbols of elegance and prestige. In keeping with a desire to foster excellence in the arts and assist in the transmission of knowledge across generations, Rolex has developed long-term associations with the world’s most prestigious events, institu- tions and orchestras. In addition, the company’s enduring partnerships with some of the world’s greatest artists encourage and recognize those who always reach further to attain the highest level of performance. Rolex’s first Testimonee in the arts was New Zealand soprano Dame Kiri Te Kanawa in the 1970s and the relationship continues to flourish. Renowned Spanish tenor Plácido Domingo has been associated with Rolex since 1982. Building on their inspiration, Rolex has extended such ties globally to successive, gifted generations of Testimonees in music, and supports ventures that encourage rising young artists, including singers, conductors and instrumentalists. Beyond sponsorship, the Rolex Mentor and Protégé Arts Initiative seeks out young artists and brings them together with great masters for a period of creative collaboration in a one-to-one mentoring relationship. In addition to supporting individual talent, Rolex partners the prestigious institutions that showcase it, including four of the world’s leading opera houses, in London, Milan, New York and Paris, and two beacons of classical music, the Salzburg Festival and the Vienna Philharmonic.
