Incroyable performance d'une Straussienne et Wagnérienne. La voix est tellement belle et solide. Et quelle émotion. On en tombe sur le cul !
Ну наконец- то❤❤❤❤. Необыкновенная ритмическая четкость оркестра, вы только послушайте !
Majestic as ever La Nielsen!! I adore her!
11:30, the power....
A phenomenal performance! Nilsson , Leinsdorf and the chorus are all exquisite. Could even Verdi have imagined this?
Forever a legend.
Finally! I've never found anything to equal the astounding La Scala / Price / Cossotto / Von Karajan version that changed my life when I saw it live, in '67 at Expo. I waited 40 years for a recording to emerge proving my memory was not faulty, but that recording still doesn't do the choir justice. This. Finally. This is the chor I heard. Unbelievably magnificent. And as for Nilsson - well...
Thank you for sharing!
Indeed the Verdian Requiem defines powerful choral and orchestral music.. It is power itself
Gorgeous photo... and singing
Simply stunning, what a gift!
Nilsson could have destroyed the world had she put her mind to it.
Leinsdorf had a train to catch
Majestic!
Extraordinary!
A tour de force.
As she always is...
I didn't realize Nilsson ever sang this! 😃
Yes, there is one other - live recorded in Stockholm, 1964 or 65, with her, bass Kim Borg, cond. S. Ehrling etc! All soloists was singers at Met . The chorus was from Belgrade , the best chorus of students - amateurs in the world at that time. You can found entire Requiem , but separated by attitudes.
@@sanjamarinkovic9040 I didn't know about that one either! Is it on CZcams or elsewhere?
@@adriand6883 On You Tube. Try this : RekviJem (j) , Nilsson , Stokholm , Krsmanovic as four keywords! Attitudes are separated but all Rekviem is there...
@@sanjamarinkovic9040 I found it! Thank you!
@@adriand6883 It is recorded in outdoors (summer festival). This, what we listen to, is made in a studio I think,( with much amplification of technical sound system ).
Leinsdorf, the living metronome, simply rushes headlong through this piece and so totally diminishes its expressive possibilities.
I think there are many ways for this movement to work. This is one of them. There are no amateurs and no callous metronomes in this performance, in my view. Also the orchestral textures come through beautifully. Perhaps not my favorite, but the majesty comes through. And Nilsson is, well, magisterial.
Well said. We refer to him as The Martinet in our house. He fuktup more than one Italian operatic recording.
