===================================
OUTLINE...
(57:43) - Anja Silja singing a super coloratura aria of Queen Of The Night.
(00:00) - Elektra's monologue. Elektra vividly recounts seeing her father being murdered by his wife and her concubine lover. She vows to restore his honor and offer sacrificial dances and to slaughter his murderers.
(09:20) - Procession and entrance of Klytemnestra. She had a nightmare about Orest strangling her to death and the whole household is awake, doing sacrificial rituals to banish her nightmares.
(19:24) - Klytemnestra wishes to speak to Elektra alone and reveals her troubles to Elektra. There has to be magical rites and to find the correct sacrifice so her nightmares would finally end.
(25:48) - Elektra reveals that she knows the rites and who should be sacrificed, playing a guessing game with her mother
(30:12) - Elektra reveals that her mother Klytemnestra herself should be the one to be sacrificed and killed so all nightmares would end.
(31:59) - Klytemnestra receives news that Orest is dead and goes back into the house, bursting into hysterical laughter as she is ecstatic with the good news
(34:26) - Orest tells Elektra that her brother is alive. Elektra does not recognize her brother, that he is alive, but he gives her a hint and she comes to the realization that it is Orest she is speaking to.
(40:19) - Murder of Klytemnestra and Aegisth
(47:58) - Chrysothemis rushes into the scene to deliver news that Orest has come home and will be their savior.
(53:52) - Elektra bursts into a frenzied dance and then suddenly falls dead on the floor (the dance was probably more exhausting the The Rite Of Spring?). Her sister calls out for help but nobody hears them.

Merveilleux souvenirs
I saw Dame Gwyneth in Butterfly in Vienna on February 8, 1972. At that time, in the relative early years, her voice was both warm and steady, - long before her vocal difficulties emerged. She was an unqualified delight for both one's eyes and ears.
Well, even La Nilsson, age 62, can't really compete with her earlier performances of this role.
I've just made the mistake of reading some of the comments below while listening to this marvel They are mostly a concatenation of ignorance, illiteracy, prejudice and downright stupidity. Just listen instead and avoid them.
16:51, ti voglio ardente
Tatsächlich sieht für einen unerfahrenen Beobachter alles ziemlich seltsam aus. Zwei ältere Frauen geben vor, etwas Absurdes zu sein. Aber das ist hohe Kunst und höchste künstlerische und musikalische Leistung, die einen Sturm von Emotionen, Erlebnissen und Bewunderung für die professionelle Umsetzung hervorruft. Dies ist ein Meisterwerk! aller Zeiten.
Seems like the laughing was pre-recorded? Look at 17:13. Her mouth isn’t moving.
Maestro. Puccini would have been delighted to hear them and said his Turandot was composed solely or htem only
Her previous Elektra was a 1980 Met performance where she was still in a bit better form voice-wise.
That laugh is actually blood curdling
Wow!😁
Forse la più grande Turandot, certo il più grande Calaf della storia operistica e poi qualcuno viene a dirci che oggi non ci sono più cantanti come una volta. Bella scoperta anche ai tempi di Corelli e Nilson non c'erano cantanti come loro.
Il Calaf preferito di Birgit Nilsson era Giuseppe Di Stefano, lo disse lei alla radio in una intervista. Anche se gli stava un po stretta la parte trovo anche io Di Stefano il piu' bel Calaf, poetico e sognante. Corelli subito dopo.
@@fabriziomariagarzi5534 Di Stefano aveva una voce stupenda per alcuni ruoli ma non per Calaf . B. Nilson può dire quello che vuole ma solo Corelli poteva competere con lei.
@@lz43p15 ognuno ha le sue opinioni. Lei li ha visti in teatro? Le posso dire che Di Stefano aveva piu'volume di voce di Corelli e di Del Monaco, cosa che non e' mai stata messa in rilievo.
By comparison, today's dramatic sopranos are pathetic.......
Today's dramatic tenors is even worse than the dramatic sopranos.
01:21:02
fasinating
I was at one of these performances!
Magnifica💖💖💖💐
I've been listening to this recording since it debuted, and still can't get enough of it.
Both Scorpios!
この2人はほんとによく喉が開いてる
Ellen Rysanek findet Leonie eine aussergewöhnliche Persönlichkeit! Bacio , deine Nichte💪😇🐞😘
She looks so pissed in the photo!!
LEONIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Give Bohm a break. He was at death's door.
💚In Questa Reggia.
💜
The most dysfunctional family in opera. Almost as dysfunctional as the family in Oedipus Rex of Igor Stravinsky.
What a voice killing speed, especially for something this heavy. Stodgy pudding conducting. A shame because his Gotterdammerung with Nilsson from Bayreuth is so fleeting and alive.
He was about to die, and apparently a lot of the recording was done by his assistant. His other recordings of Elektra, live and in studio, are extremely high voltage.
ÚNICA,SUPERIOR A MARIA CALLAS
Extraordinary! Even though Nilsson is beyond her peak (she is age 62 here!)
What a great artist and voice Turner was. Great pitch and squillo! The Calaf is Martinelli. The Liu was Licia Albanese. What a cast!
How lucky were those who witnessed this live!
Wieland Wagner's staging? Amazing!
The diminuendo at 18:30 is simply out of this world. Nobody from today‘s singers comes even close.
Hélas il y avait un monde avant et un autre aujourd'hui
@@guycondroyer864 Très vrai. Il est impossible aujourd'hui d´écouter quelque chose de semblable. Les rôles semblent êtres composés pour eux.
Totally superhuman vocalization. Who can sing like this without a wobble or tonal distortion? Singers at the height of their power! Thank you for sharing this great work.
Who is the conductor, please ?
Mein Gott, das hat es in sich!
This is so good!!! Amazing!
These excerpts are spectacular. We are fortunate indeed to have them preserved for posterity. And Dame Eva's instrument was diamantine in it's ringing clarity. What a vocal colossus!
Это чудо❤Сколько раз слушаю и каждый в восхищении! 👏👏👏💐💐💐
Nielson always won
Wow!!! Such titans!!!!!
Nilsson, Corelli, Freni, Giaiotti and Zubin Mehta. OMG!!! 😍🥰
I think Nilsson was underrated as an actress. She is completely captivating. Watching her eyes role back right before she collapses - Thrilling!!!!
