- With Domingo, Tourangeau and Stewert.
Sadly the very end of the video is missing. I reconstructed the ending using the existing footage and audio from a live performance.
Incredible. I know I will never hear singing like this again, the Golden Age is behind us, but how lucky we were to have heard them.
Music conservatories and "professors" should ask themselves why ....!
@@operabilia Truly great voices, in my opinion, are divine gifts that come to us from time to time...maybe when the stars align. We can't create them from ordinary instruments.
I am speechless! This is the most incredible singing ever. There will never be anybody like Joan.
I heard her in the 1980s a few times and it was a life changing experience.
I heard 3 1985 Lucias… I feel the same! Life changing… hard to describe the impact of that voice in a huge space, and the artistry, presence on stage
No wonder Domingo singled out Dame Joan as the greatest soprano he ever sang with.I wish they had recorded more together.Glorious !
О, 2 эталонных певца поют на одной сцене, я преклоняюсь перед их талантами!!! Благодарю вас, что делитесь своей прекрасной оперной коллекцией с нами👏👏👏🥳💖
It is such a shame The Met never released this. I know the reasons why, but it’s a piece of operatic history.
why?
@@tania_taliapergam3675 the lighting was too dark for the TV cameras of the time. Such a shame.
Sutberland was scheduled to sing Hoffmann in Melbourne in the mid 1980s, with a telecast, but due to various issues (nothing to do with Joan) the performance was cancelled and the planned telecast could not be re-scheduled. A pity.
@@danielintheantipodes6741 yes, I was there in the lobby waiting. They even tried to sing it in front of the curtains, but all the unions stuck together.
A very sad night indeed.
The dress rehearsal sections are out there on CZcams.
I have seen both telecasts privately and I saw this original production in Seattle.
I’ve been very lucky.
Oh they probably will once management changes again. Especially as the talent is so weak there nowadays and they have money issues since Covid. There are ways to digitally fiddle with the entire thing.
Wooooow❤
LIve excerpts from the LEGENDARY DECCA recording! UNSURPASSED! And no amplification needed for Dame Joan!
I met Richard Bonynge once at a party, and I asked him about this, and he said apparently they had to stand Joan a long way from the microphone back in the 1960s because she nearly blew it up! So this came from the horse's mouth!
@@jonathanwalsh2612 As a little boy, I was invited by Swiss tenor Hugues Cuénod (who sang the three VIllains) at the live concert at Geneva's Victoria Hall that followed the official DECCA recording! Yep! Sutherland and Bacquier ruled and their voices were like laser beams! Richard confirmed!
Absolutely amazing. You can't describe the emotions of this fantastic singing. And thank you and well done for the finale. Absolutely so exciting.
..she just soars , and then keeps going..wow Joan.
I was there, also at the Geneva concert. The higher it got, the most powerful her laser beam voice radiated, it was huge!
Che bello!!!Mille grazie!!!👏♥️💐
sensational!
❤️❤️❤️
Great!!!
speechless..!!
Impressive music and the famous septet isn't even by Offenbach but arranged after his death by Ernst Guiraud.
Domingo is very good , but I dont like him in most of hi 3 miljon roles.Dame Joan splendid !!!!!!!!!! Bonynge , love him.
SUTHERLAND ES COMO DE CUENTO DE HADAS..........................UNA PASADA...................
Do you have the full version of this? There is a full version here on CZcams, but that version has the Barcarolle THAT YOU POSTED cut out from it. Therefore I am very interested in the full video of this performance that the clips you are posting have originated from. Please contact me if you have any info about the full video of this performance.
The video that I have does have most of the Giulietta act. The last 5 minutes of it is missing. I've reconstructed it using a broadcast recording and footage from the Melbourne video from 1985. I received the footage from a fellow Sutherland fan from the USA. If you want to chat to me I'm on the the Joan Sutherland Fan Page on Facebook.
@@lastupendajoansutherland Yes, I am definitely interested! I would like to combine the footage of the Giulietta act with the full version on CZcams and remaster the audio a bit to get a final finished product. And if you are interested, I do have the full performance video of the 1985 Tales of Hoffmann with Sutherland at Melbourne
Fantastic singing but the production was not very good for me. I was there the opening night. It is one of my favorite operas.
Actually I thought from videos I have seen, the production was spectacular.
For me the production was great. The singers fantastic.
I am a fan of Dame Joan but I must say what a ridiculous costume. She needed very carefull dressing not to look like a parody.
Just listen to the sheer beauty and volume of her voice! She didn't choose the costume!
@@operabilia By 1973 she was famous enough to choose her costumes. I love early Sutherland performances when you could understand the words.
Stop passing on the ridiculous diction thing that you read somewhere… she was projecting like a laser beam like no one ever did( a round, gorgeous , feminine one), sge wasn’t reciting a poem in your living room
