In England he also appeared frequently at the Boosey popular Concerts. Songs described in the tours of Australia and Canada give some idea of his recitals, such as Pinsuti's "Bedouin Love Song", Formes's "In Sheltered Vale", Battison Haynes's "Off to Philadelphia", Schubert's "The Wanderer", Loder's "The Diver", Knight's "Rock'd in the Cradle of the Deep", the 'Drinking' song "In cellar cool", Gatty's "True till Death", and stand-alone operatic pieces such as "Qui sdegno non-s'accende" (Mozart, "Die Zauberflöte"), "She alone charmeth my sadness" (Gounod, "La reine de Saba") and "O ruddier than the cherry" (Handel, "Acis and Galatea"), all of which remained in the standard English concert repertoire well into the twentieth century, and were recorded by such singers as David Bispham, Peter Dawson, Robert Radford or Norman Allin. Foli's voice was powerful but of beautiful quality, its compass from the bass E to F above middle C. With his vigorous, straightforward delivery, he was a great favourite in London for many years. George Bernard Shaw referred to the certainty and spontaneity of his roulades.
