So lovely...I heard her sing Aida at the Met in 1976...got her autograph...gave her a kiss on the cheek...a thrill to meet her. Ah...Leontyne...a voice beyond words.
What a glorious voice!
Que voz milagrosa....Deus a tenha em glória ❤

I don't think that anyone navigated that high C as well as she. And the scary thing is that the version in the farewell performance is even better.
By the time of her farewell performance her voice was too diminished since already late 60s. Here in this video is 1962 she had more middle, compare her 1962 Solti Aida with her 1970 Leinsdorf Aida , in 1970 the middle was worned out, spent. About her high notes, Price's high notes are well issued and are totally "lyrical" have no impact her high notes Price never got her technique right. Her chest was undeveloped and her “head voice” was dominated by falsetto…that is why you can’t hear her in large orchestral sounds."
@@walteranibal8425 I'm just talking about the ascent high C here, not about anything else. She can actually finesse it unlike almost everyone else. I would say that she was a very big lyric soprano, but not a lirico spinto. Much more like Steber than Tebaldi.
@@ER1CwC Price voice is totally much more beautiful than Steber's voice without velvet and metallic and ordinary timbre
@@walteranibal8425 Ultimately, judgments on whether someone's timbre is beautiful or not is in the ear of the beholder. What is more important in terms of making a singer stand out or not is whether his/her timbre is distinctive.
Really??? You can't hear her in Trovatore ? I beg your pardon
I guess not all the color broadcast video survived.
This performance is from the Voice of Firestone TV series (1949-1963), which was never in color. The Bell Telephone Hour, on the other hand, was always in color, starting in 1959. Then there was the Ed Sullivan Show, that started in b&w and then switched to color.
