Anna Tomowa-Sintow and Luciano Pavarotti singing "Teco io sto" from Verdi's "Un ballo in maschera", Grand Théâtre de Genève, Conductor: Riccardo Chailly
She is truly amazing. What a beautiful voice and of course Pavarotti is always fantastic the greatest tenor of the last few decades after Corelli. Absolute glorious singing by both two outstanding opera singers.
Unique Anna Tomowa-Sintow! Congenial Luciano! This is even - so to speak - highest quality of singing (and expressing human feelings). Unuebertrefflich in every time, never ever again! Bravissima, grandissima Anna Tomowa-Sintow!
Anna Tomowa-Sintow did not have a habit of scooping. If scooping was the problem, Mirella Freni and Edita Gruberova woudn't have had careers at all! LOL! Anna Tomowa Sintow actually had a glorious career and sang in some of the most important houses throughout her long career. She also made a plethora of very fine recordings. You have to also consider that she was singing the same roles as Leontyne Price and other top sopranos of that same period in the same houses, but she made her mark. :-)
Si está no es la mejor versión de este dúo..... está muy cerca de serlo. Anna está impresionante. Luciano está impresionante. Es una locura de belleza esta presentación. ¡Inolvidable! A disfrutar.
6:50 Oh, my heart. I cannot. One of the most beautiful moments in opera. And some people say Pava couldn't act? Please! The way he portraits Riccardo here...perfect. He _is_ Riccardo! The way he looks at her...
Anna did not do much scooping, if any. She has a very smooth legato and uses it perfectly to keep Verdi's line connected as she sings here. If this is what is now called scooping then no wonder we have no singer today who seems able to connect more than three notes at a time.
Not really convinced - awful staging, bad acting on Pavarotti's part (though good vocally), uneven singing on Tomowa-Sintow's part (yes, scooping indeed).

She possessed one of the finest voices of her time...a true spinto....an even column of sound and crystal clear.
I adore Anna Tomowa-Sintow
She is one of the foremost QUALITY singers, so intelligent and with wonderful musicality.....sadly underrated; just like Martina Arroyo in my view.
I love Anna's voice a true Spinto-Soprano

You can search... and search... you will find hundreds of other versions... but there is absolutly no better one of this famous Duetto...
Anna is the best of the best !!!
Duetto bellissimo grazie agli interpreti e a Verdi
Anna has so much heart ....

Voce di qualità ammaliante, cantante raffinata convince per espressività e dolcezza non per peso vocale (meno male). Qui ideale partner per Pavarotti
Stupendos!!
Pavarotti sounds great here and his acting is quite appropriate. Great duo!
Wonderful pairing!

She started as a mezzo & there it is.
Very nice! Wich year was that?

@@Un_Gordo_De_Derecha Thank you, my friend! My opera-friend!
@@KarstenKriwat No problem Bro ! :D
What year was this?
Another one with Anna T-S:
czcams.com/video/B1U2gV9-kP8/video.html
What year please?
it was not her scooping- it was her vibrato that was odd- but she was very good in her prime
IMO her constant scooping is the only thing that held her back from Mega stardom. Such a gorgeous instrument!
And the strange throaty vibrato that got in the way of a feeling of intimacy.
Not really convinced - awful staging, bad acting on Pavarotti's part (though good vocally), uneven singing on Tomowa-Sintow's part (yes, scooping indeed).
richat30 You are deaf
Pavarotti was not convincing on stage due to his huge size and limited acting ability.
Well he convinced me. By the way is her acting so much more convincing?
@@paullewis2413 What? I couldn’t disagree more. His size didn’t matter at all. His acting was fine - he expressed the emotions very well!
