Senza mamma, bimbo, tu sei morto!
Le tue labbra senza i baci miei
Scoloriron, fredde, fredde
E chiudesti, o bimbo, gli occhi belli
Non potendo carezzarmi
Le manine componesti in croce
E tu sei morto senza sapere
Quanto t'amava questa tua mamma!
Ora che sei un angelo del cielo
Ora tu puoi vederla la tua mamma
Tu puoi scendere giù pel firmamento
Ed aleggiare intorno a me, io ti sento
Sei qui, sei qui, mi baci, m'accarezzi
Ah dimmi quando in ciel potrò vederti
Quando potrò baciarti
Oh dolce fine d'ogni mio dolore
Quando in cielo con te potrò salire?
Quando potrò morire?
Quando potrò morire?
Potrò morire?
Dillo alla mamma, creatura bella
Con un leggero scintillar di stella
Parlami, parlami, amore, amore, amore!
Leontyne Price and Puccini went together like bread & butter.
Whenever you see her with Herbert von Karajan as the conductor, listen to it. He always brought out the best in her voice.
Truly one of the most beautiful voices of the 20th century.
I thought I was going to pass out on that last note! It’s more than perfection. Wow.
I'm lucky to have met her. One of the most magical moments of my opera-loving youth. And then she called me on my birthday! She is an angel.
I met her when I was a child. She was visiting a friend next door to me. I heard this beautiful opera coming from the house. I though my neighbor was playing her stereo very loud. I was surprised it was coming from someone's mouth. LOL. I was lucky to be introduced. I remember her being very grand.
Sono tornato per ascoltare la sua voce gloriosa. Mi ha fatto piangere di nuovo. Bravissima.
.. The Most Beautiful Voice , Ever !!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So beautiful! No one can sing this aria as poignantly as she does.
As much as I love Price in opera, for me Tebaldi’s 1962 recording (complete opera) is the finest of this aria I’ve ever heard.
@@TheVaughan5 Indeed. This music was in Tebaldi’s DNA.
Can we enjoy Price without the unnecessary comparison to other sopranos, they are all great and none are perfect because art is imperfect.
@@antoniomarcelo4423 I don’t think anyone here is suggesting that any artist is “perfect” and I’m sure we all appreciate the art of Leontyne Price, an exceptional singer by any standard.
If you like Price check out Olivero!
Sublime! So moving! Somehow she disguises her great technique, her control of that huge voice and her musical precision and goes straight to the emotional story. Thank you for sharing.
Her beautiful and comfortable voice is out of this world
My heart isresting, and peace, and soothed and comforted
"Comfortable voice"...That's a great description

What you said
Chills. I have chills. THANK YOU for posting this fabulous find. I've never seen this before.
My favorite singer of any genre.
This is so special, I'm crying; I think that's what Puccini wanted! 😭
Powerful and delicate at the same time.
Superb, I love her musicality and that voice, brilliant.
A beautiful person as well....she was in concert in Miami in 1974.....met her backstage.....phenomenal!!!!
I love to listen Leontyne singing Verdi and Puccini! Incredible voice!
Thank you for posting! Bless the algorithm that made me find this! Great Miss Price with the wonderful German public...
I saw the great Price onstage as Aida and, of all things, Ariadne! She made everything great. My question is how any soprano can get through this aria - not that it’s particularly difficult for technique - but because it’s so emotionally raw. Beverly Sills sang it once, just after her handicapped son was institutionalized, and she said she was hysterical and weeping through the whole performance. She never sang it again.
how incredible…. sometimes the opulence and richness of the voice just pour out and sometimes it feels like she’s just showing off (“look what I can do”), and yet she’s so humble at the end, she immediately turns to the maestro like what she did was so normal…
Bela bellísima
Heartbreakingly beautiful and poignant! The glorious myriad pallette of vocal colours flowing from Price's voice is a pure miracle! Thank you for posting.
no singer has more vocal colour than Leontyne Price.
One of the greatest of all time! Blessed to have seen and heard her perform live!
FLAWLESS!!!
Can not be better!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Breathtaking. Leaves me in awe every time.
Incredibly beautiful!
Meravigliosa
Love the way her mouth and lips move when she sings. She opens her mouth, and the sound just pours out. No grimacing like many other singers.
The legendary singer Miss Price 🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️♥️♥️
Supremacía ,interpretativa ,vocal estética,Diva eterna ,nacida para brillar , Dios te bendiga 🎵🎶🎹🎼❤️💋
This is truly an amazing find!
Leontyne’s version is my favourite version of this aria. I have never been able to listen to other versions the same after hearing her studio recording of this.
I’m so happy a footage of her singing it exists ❤️
Absolutely sublime!
OMG! Absolutely fabulous. Thank you very much
Jiri Zednik = you are the best !! thank you

Gigli told Magda Olivero that the secret to singing was to not shout. Price perfected this.

Dame Price is priceless!!
Sublime…
De arrepiar ❤
Che artista Suprema !
From 3:20 till the end ..❤ heaven
I honestly think if she had sang Manon Lescaut at this time, it would've been esquisite and taken a lot more seriously.
I totally agree with you on this!
Uauuuuuuuu
👍
❤️🇱🇨!!!
I'm thrilled to see this. Does this mean you have Zweite Brautnacht from the same concert?
Unfortunately, I do not. But I am still searching.
Perhaps someone in Germany should call or write Bavarian Radio to request the full concert!
@@liedersanger1 Audio was released on CD, I have it. We want the video.
I meant Bavarian Broadcasting (Bayerische Rundfunks).
@@liedersanger1 That's an excellent idea but I don't know anyone in Germany. I emailed Bavarian Broadcasting 10 or more years ago but, unsurprisingly, never heard back. I hope someone picks up on your suggestion.

L'opéra de Puccini le plus court. Le plus triste. Le plus injuste. Des larmes, des larmes, et encore des larmes. La fille vient d'apprendre la plus mauvaise nouvelle de sa vie, la mort de son jeune fils "illégitime" (raison de sa présence au couvent depuis des années) et va bientôt vouloir le rejoindre.
Senza maMMa (2 m).
Thank you

DAMN....not even Mariah Carrey can handle this 😅
The first bars are empty of phrasing, vibrato, direction. Then it begins to become sumptuous, colourful, very opulent, big. I find that these qualities are in fact unuseful to this music. We need more fragility, finesse. She is always the sensuous round voiced Price, not really Suor Angelica. Of course it's only my little opinion.
Suor Angelica just found out her son died, why would you expect any “finesse” when someone is going through shock?
I do not agree with you at all. This interpretation is absolutely perfect. Her “empty” phrasing in the beginning, as you call it, truly represents the emptiness and shock of the character: not knowing how to process her emotions…a feeling that there’s nothing left to live for-total darkness. The voice needs to be full and warm when she’s thinking of her son being an angel in heaven lol. It moves in and out between shock, grief, and dare I say, even joy.
Regarding fragility, this is the most fragile I’ve ever heard anyone sing this aria. When she’s singing the last few bars over the funeral march, you just want to rip your heart out-and no one, I mean NO ONE I’ve ever heard sing this has ever held that last pianissimo note like that. All the great singers, even ones known for this role, run out of breath or end up with a wobbly vibrato.
@@bonotoon5273 I understand what you feel and see in that interprétation. As I said, we have personal opinions. We project something.
In my case I prefer another type of voice, in that part, and relation to the text.
But I cherish her royal and comfortable in many, many other roles.
@@foropera Of course she never sang the role -just the aria. I wish she had sung the role. It was never even on her shortlist. It would’ve been an interesting two opera show, with Il Tabarro, or, early in her career, when she had a stronger, lower register, Cavalleria.
@@liedersanger1 yes I agree with that. It's better when you are on stage in the real situation, to feel the whole context. In Dialogues of the Carmelites she played the role as it should or can be.
Interpretation. Read the libretto.
