That's what I thought too. At first, I thought the only ones left were Moreschi, Salvatori, and Cesari. (I knew Mustafa had left just prior to the recordings, unfortunately). But I had never heard of those other 3 castrati before. It makes sense though because you can clearly hear their piercing soprano voices ringing above the softer boy sopranos' voices (there ARE boy sopranos in some of the choir recordings, right? Cause it certainly sounds like it.), and much louder than the falsetists.

Also, you know at the end of the Tosti Ideale recording, at the very end after the applause and cheering, you can here a very faint high voice. I've heard that it could very well be Moreschi himself saying "Grazie". I tried to clean up that little bit and made a little clip out of it, would you like me to send it to you?
