Hay algo más encendido en la penumbra de la emoción? Cuánta belleza en ellas. Gracias, de corazón!!!

Impresionante. Inmensa. Genial. Me ha emocionado. Muchas gracias.

Ci sono cantanti MIGLIORI DI LEI ....MAI vista questa grande cantante......

Maria Calas, prima Dona, Diva das Divas. ❤❤

La soprano, alta como la columna de un templo griego, con una espalda de estibador, cuello de toro y quijada de boxeador. La mezzo, con cara regordeta de bebé, mide un metro cincuenta😑 Me imagino a aquella grácil y delicada Adina en el escenario, capaz de derrumbar a Belcore de un guantazo, o que frágil y virginal Leonora, lamentándose al pie de la torre. Todo un desafío para el más _pintáo_ Don Giovanni, quien seguro se lo pensaría dos veces, antes de asaltar el lecho de semejante Donna Anna, enfrentado a la perspectiva de ser defenestrado y acabar la ópera apenas empezar. La Ulrica de Horne, debe ser incapaz de asustar a un chico de jardín de infantes, y su Carmen redonda en miniatura, en lugar de enloquecer a los hombres, debe inspirar le pellizquen los cachetes🤭

Odiosa...non vedo sto talento unico 😂ci sono voci più belle e interessanti

Люблю.

Si quieren no pongan ninguna música que yo no he botado mis cd porque yo no le voy a poner más carga a mi sueldo ..pónganse a trabajar y a ahorrar que si es que se amasa fortuna no gastando el dinero en disparate con eso no quiero decir que la ópera no me gusta al contrario me encanta tanto que aveces lloro y digo que eso sopranos deberían tener vida eternna...son verdaderos angeles

Золото.

I am honored and was honored to have met both of them.

It's a shame they never did another theaterical feature film!..

Before PBS came into being, the commercial television networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) were the outlet for classical music on the small screen.

Conducted for the talents of callas, not Sutherland. This was painfully sluggish

There will never be another Dame Joan Sutherland!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂

This is absolutely heavenly. The finest singing I’ve ever heard!

Tecnicamente sem rival. Bravíssima.

Joan Sutherland sang in the stratosphere. It's amazing her career lasted as long as it did. A similar singer, Natalie Dessay, had a much shorter career and many vocal crises.

Wow, Dames Joan Sutherland and Janet Baker in the same production. The other singers are also excellent.

She was perfection…. RIP, Joan Sutherland! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Does anyone know where to find the complete performance in correct pitch? The cd release from MYTO is pitched too high

Thankyou, I am moved to tears.

Great harmonizing by Ms. Horne and Dame Joan.

Thats how you do it!!

Люблю всегда.

As of today, looking back, only two sopranos are in a class of their own. Sutherland and Birgit Nilsson. With only 5 years age difference , they dominated the 60-ties, 70-ties and into the 80ties. Birgit ended her opera career in her mid 60ties with Electra in Frankfurt. But continued with concerts to her 70-ties. Joan also in her mid 60ties, the Huguenots in Sydney. An interessting fact is that both discovered their perfect head voice, when they had a flu, and forced to find a way around it in the " mask", and stayed with that technique. I have heard both of them live in various operas. Joan rocked the Opera world by singing coloratura on full voice. Not really heard before. Birgit, a massive, powerful voice, range from G3 Salome to F6, my favourite with Joan La Traviata, and Lucia with Birgit Tanhauser and Isolde. Can still feel how I was pinned to my seat, hearing both of them live back in the 60ties and 70-ties. There are many other fabulous sopranos, Moffo, De Los Angeles, Milanov, Freni, etc. deliberate ly left Callas out, only a few recordings from the early 50ties with Karajan, was excellent, one soprano people rave about, Caballe, maybe on recordings, where you can turn the dial, make a small voice bigger, but Caballe live, you need a front seat to hear her, quite pathetic.

This is amazing singing and in some ways it doesn't sound like singing at all. Her voice was truly some type of unique instrument that it sounds like she is playing. It almost sounds like I'm listening to a science fiction movie with a singing alien, and I mean this in the best way possible. Once you hear the Sutherland "voice" at its best other voices always sound like something is missing. I just take her out of the equation when making comparisons. The only one FOR ME who almost falls in this category is Leontyne Price in her prime. There are amazing singers throughout history who have given me great joy as well, but this is just something I experience differently.

Tal vez no me agrade tanto la velocidad porque es muy rápido y Mozart era muy exacto en lo que quería. Lo MUY INTERESANTE es que lo hizo como lo escribió Mozart en 432 Hertz que se escucha mucho más armonioso. Desde hace varios años están subiendo todas las orquestas a 440 y ahora se atreven hasta 445 Hertz lo que es espantoso porque suena muy chillón, disarmónico y cada vez más exigente para la soprano. Se pierde la calidad del sonido. PAREN DE SUBIR LOS HERTZ ES CONTRANATURA.

The Great Robert Merrill in his best; what a comforting voice !

Es UNA VERDADERA DELICIA ESCUCHARLAS. BRAVISSIMAS❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Not that I dislike Berbie on the studio recording but she and Huguette had such beautiful vocal chemistry that was always a joy to hear together, whether Norma or Esclarmonde or Maria Stuarda or Lucia di Lammermoor, etc.

Just exceptional joy

1959: the last Callas' Lucia and the first Sutherland's Lucia

This Nightingale had been closed by Debora Pantofel-Nechetskaya long ago: czcams.com/video/i5BvUXFzR8E/video.html

Marilyn sings the opening section so effortlessly, and her facial expressions mirror her role as Norma's handmaiden. Dame Joan is proud and erec, and she listens to her servant with rapt attention. It really doesn't get any better than this. Thanks so much for posting!

She was absolutely incredible in performance and recordings. I heard her at the Met, Covent Garden, and Chicago Lyric and she was always stunning. She was also very sensitive to her public. After one performance at the Met [Sonnambula] on a very cold winter night, a very large group waited outside the stage doors to try to get a closeup glimpse of her. After about half an hour [it was close to zero degrees] only four of us were left and we had just talked about leaving when the door opened and someone said "Miss Sutherland wonders if you would like to have tea with her?" We were escorted to her dressing room and spent almost an hour talking with her and Bonynge [and having tea]. The other three who had waited were voice students at Juillard and she was quite good with them in answering questions about vocal performance. I was "just" a fan but she paid attention to me as well which showed her great modesty and caring for her public.

Sutherland is so unique in the history of singing. As a singer it is fascinating to watch her. it's like she is playing an instrument, the inside of her face, that she is manipulating using the outside of her face. Every position of the mouth is in the service of the sound, her eyebrows are like picks on guitar strings as she brings them up and down depending on the pitch. The lift of the soft palate and how she breaks into what looks like a big smile on her highest notes to give her room for the huge sound on the Eb. It's technique beyond what anybody has ever attempted and she relied on it and trusted it completely. Then you can ignore all that and just listen at what that creates. Sometimes technique creates the art.

5:38 favourite part!!!!! immaculate staccatos, with a soft attack and perfect coordination. MAGIC

A fan2. Concordo Ho sentito tutte le altre e lei è un bel po' sotto. Forse era già su cogli anni

Sung in such a low key

It’s easy to hear why Joan was such a sensation in her first Lucia at Covent Garden. At this stage of her career the voice was at its finest, fresh, brilliant, totally secure, in fact a miracle of bel canto singing. By the 1980’s, while she could still manage those high notes, her voice was a different animal, a very long way from those sensational early years. Certainly we will never hear her like again.

Stunning… that entire concert from Germany was divine, powerful, and delicate Mozart too

Separately, they were unequalled...together, divine.

Amazing! Thank you!

❤

О Боже, это какая-то неописуемая красота 😍😇😇

Splendid delight!!
