Mes amis, écoutez l'histoire "Mes amis, écoutez l'histoire", is a tenor aria in Adolphe Adam's 1836 opera "Le postillon de Lonjumeau". The D in the final verse is the highest commonly sung note for tenors in opera. Donizetti wrote an E♭ for Edgardo in the first act of his opera "Lucia di Lammermoor", though it is very seldom sung. Higher notes are occasionally sung in interpolations and ornaments in other bel canto operas, and exceptionally the written F at the end of "Credeasi, misera" in Bellini's "I puritani".
