• ’Caro nome che il mio cor’ (Sweet name that made my heart), or 'Caro nome’ for short, is an aria for coloratura soprano from Act I of Verdi’s opera Rigoletto. It is part of the standard Italian soprano vocal repertoire, featured in numerous anthologies for soprano singers and in albums of highlights from the opera. It is often performed in recitals and used as an audition piece by soprano singers. It is very slow, and includes extended high notes which require strong stamina and breath control, and also features a challenging coloratura section which demonstrates the singer’s dexterity and accuracy.
