CBC, October 28, 1964 - Hudba
When you hear her sing.. you know its Marilyn.... Most beautiful voice I have ever listened to..
Rossini ha lasciaro delle perle incredibili e la Horne le ha esaltate: la numero 1 fino ad ora.
Rimarrà nella storia del Belcanto come Callas, Sutherland e Caballé
She and Joan Sutherland - unique !2genious artists!!!!
At the end can’t you just hear an audience go wild, screaming BRAVA! BRAVA! BRAVISSIMA!
And in truth this is not her ultimate rendition and interpretation.
Incomparable Marilyn Horne.
Thank you for this.
Brava. Horne!!
Absolutely amazing
This document proves that she continued to work hard and improve throughout her career. As fine as this is, she didn't rest on her laurels.
You are correct. As good as this is, she improved continuously. She was a great singer and is now in her late 80s I believe.
@@Mickju Exactly 94 She: THE GENIOUS
Bravísima!!! Adoro a Horne
fabulosa.................
inarrivabile!
Vídeo histórico de una cantante histórica ! La mejor mezzo soprano de coloratura del siglo XX .
Simply spectacular !! ❤ 👏
She's 30 years old here.
10 years prior, she was the voice of Carmen in the film Carmen Jones (Dorothy Dandridge was the actress)
At that point she was still singing Mimi in La Bohème -- what an exciting and varied career.
I got to meet/speak with her a few times backstage at the Met when she was doing L'Italiana and Barbiere with Rocky.
Tiny thing - what a voice, what a dame 😜😜😜
très grande mezzo
Unbelievable! DIVINA ❤❤❤❤❤💯
One of my favorite mezzo
Bravo bravo bravo
Brava
Tomba 2
soprano corto .
@@bodiloto capisco.
Però in questo personaggio mi piace abbastanza.
Богиня! Моя любимая ❤ На мой взгляд её даже сравнивать не с кем. Её альбом француских арий просто шедевр. Хотя её характерный низ меня сначала раздрожал) а потом влюбил)
Never noticed pitch problems before (until her late career).
🇧🇬💐💞BRILLIANT INTERPRETATION!!!🐘🍀
🌹BRAWISSISSISSIMO, MAESTRA !!!🦄

Young, but not so much, she was thirty and had yet ten years career.
Direzione penosa. Nella cabaletta c’è qualche sfasatura. La Horne all’inizio della sua stupefacente parabola rossiniana , almeno qui, sembra non aver ancora la perfezione assoluta nel canto di agilità che conosciamo, ma la voce è fresca duttile estesa. Forse è un problema di direzione, perché la superlativa edizione discografica diretta da Bonynge è proprio del ‘64, ma c’è una certa differenza...
grazie di questo splendido video, comunque.
Marylin Horne is fantastic. To my knowledge her earliest live recording. Can you put up the full opera? 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow. This must be the earliest video of Horne?
I don't know if her earliest video - isn't there a telecast of her singing Les nuits d'été still as a soprano? -, but one of the earliest, for sure.
@@vicmanu is there? I'm very curious now. 😉👍
No Doubt, she was nervous, however, it's STILL a great performance by ANY standard!
@francisgarnier308 puede que tenga razón! Así decía mi madre (en otros temas): -tú te lo pierdes!- jajaja! Bueno... Saludos cordiales!
Люблю.
I meant earliest live SEMIRAMIDE recording
USC ✌🏼
Molto meglio 20 anni dopo.

How do you suppose she got this opportunity to be on tv early in here career? I mean, I doubt that opera was a huge draw in those days of still early tv. I imagine her in a tv producer's room or something with important people speaking up on her behalf. I've read her books but don't recall hearing anything about that situation. Anyone?
Actually you are quite wrong. Opera on early TV was not something unnatural. Quite the opposite. Even huge successful programs such as The Ed Sullivan Show had regular operatic guests - if I'm not mistaken, soprano Roberta Peters was Sullivan's most frequent recurring guest over the years. A quick CZcams search will reveal many TV apparitions by some major operatic greats from the 50s and 60s. Operatic transmissions live from theaters were a different story, although they did eventually occur (La Scala transmitted both Macbeth and La Sonnambula live with Callas, again, if I''m not mistaken), we just don't have the tapes. There was even a BBC (?) documentary called The Art of Singing, which I'm sure you can watch on YT (although just watch out because there is a version with musical numbers only which was released on DVD), that is about opera on early movies (even the silent screen), that being part one, and on early TV, part two.
@@vicmanu You know, you make a good point. I recall seeing Marilyn Horne on Johnny Carson more than once, and now that you mention it, Ed Sullivan did present opera now and again, I guess.
Thanks
@@paules3437 Beverly Sills and Martina Arroyo were frequent guests on The Tonight Show.
@@Muttonchop_USA I think I saw Sills there once, but I was pretty young. I guess Carson had an appreciation of opera? Can you imagine an opera singer on today's talk shows? They should do that; it might educate a lot of folks apart from, one hopes, being enjoyable. I guess they still do Bway appearance on shows like that, tho I think they're always the morning shows.
@@paules3437 You're an total IDI*T !
A it smudgy compared to her later self. But still outstanding.
“Smudgy”. Lmao I think you mean legato. Compared to here later wholly aspirated technique.
Molto pasticciato tutto
Mediocre technique (modern) but good interpreter.
Good as this is it is not as great as what she would become. I saw her in this role at Lyric Opera of Chicago [with Sutherland as Semiramis] and she was far more accomplished at that point. Here she is being careful with the ornate singing whereas later she would produce a much fuiller rounded tone and seemingly endless breath control over the very very ornate Rossini lines. The voice was much larger than this shows.
mai piaciuta dal vivo .
Beh...aveva alcuni difetti..per me insormontabili. Era corta.
I love her, but for my ears, not her finest moment.
She was so kind to the voice and confident with where she was but she also was chosen and a bit lazy and white. I know I don't know what I'm talking about but those intonation issues continued well into the 80s. They may have more to do with the cavernous Met enabling her to not address them. Nonetheless she is an astounding vocal presence without equal.
Una gran carrera, una voz poderosa, pero: ni el timbre, ni el canto me agradaron jamas. Y esa fonación gringa que para mí estropea los idiomas latinos. En fin... Una gran carrera! Pero no me gusta.
Lo mismo problema.
Lo siento por Ud !
Not one of her best performances.
Personally I do not like the voice of Horne. I know she had a great technique, eloquent and a long and lastig career. But I find her low middle notes to be nasal, not her upper range though.
that is the reason why her career was long-lasting
@@HaasRegen she had a long-lasting career because she chose to stick in her fach
I can think of other singers with long-lasting careers who didn't sound sound nasal but had a great technique: Simionato, Caballe and others.
I never found her voice to be nasal. But I used to think it was a truly ugly sound, especially in the middle. lol
@@Ruffiello And also the chestvoice was ugly to my ears.
What nasality? That's a covered tone in the mask so she could glide up and down. You don't like a bright sound when needed?
Boring as hell
Oh thank you. Finally someone agree with me when I say Semiramide is most boring thing ever composed.
Count me as respectfully taking exception to this. Semiramide is a thrillingly beautiful opera, I think.
@@gabrieladelmann9307, diciamo che e' piacevole a seconda di chi la canta.
