This is unearthly and beautiful. Callas not only acted the character, she became the character. She made you feel the emotions of the character like no soprano before or since. The great Maria Callas. La Divina.

@jamesnickoloff6692 Ай бұрын

i think Callas was great not because she became the characters she portrayed on stage but because she used those characters (Lucia, Violetta, Norma, Medea) to portray HERSELF. It is Maria we hear on stage, not only Lucia, but Maria speaking to us THROUGH Lucia to tell us of her hopes, her fears, her pain. This is why audiences (and fellow singers) were moved. And I also think this is true of all great singers and stage actors: they find that they are MOST THEMSELVES on stage, pouring out their souls THROUGH the characters they are portraying. This is why Callas was so indebted to composers--Rossini, Donizetti, Bellini, Verdi and others--they gave her the means TO BE HERSELF.

Callas was at her absolute incomparably wonderful best in this recording. I was and still am a great Tebaldi fan having heard her at the very beginning of her Met career. Tebaldi was an enchanting Mimi, and a deeply moving Butterfly, but she could never have DREAMED of singing Norma, or Lucia, or ANY of the great bel canto roles. CALLAS n the other hand was simply GREAT at this time in her career. Sheer MAGIC! Too bad both of these women teriorated so badly too soon in their respective careers. I've always thought it was downright SILLY to try to compare them. Eac was wonderful in her own niqu way. THIS however, is truly a REVELATION. I' never heard it befor. Now I understand why Callas was SO highly regarded.

There would have been no Sutherland if there had not been Callas. Bonynge studied the late 19th-early 20th century recordings - but also, Sutherland and Bonynge were young artists at Covent Garden when Callas was singing there. Of course they learned not only from the recorded history of performance practices but also from the immediate presence of Callas. Sutherland was of course a very different personality and voice. I heard her a number of times at the MET. I also attended one of Callas' Master Classes at Juilliard.

I wanted to find out “the Secret” of Great Art- the Art of Van Gogh, the Art of Michelangelo, the Art of Pollock, the Art of Praxiteles. I think I’ve found it- imperfections. A Human can only be moved and relate to another Human. Autotune has destroyed that connection. Listeners don’ feel emotions from machines or perfect voices, they connect emotionally with Art made by imperfect but emotional Humans.

I've heard this performance many times and I have it on CD in the Callas live boxed set on Warner, but it never ceases to amaze me. Where is the wobbling and screeching Callas was so often accused of? Not here! Aided by a superb supporting cast and conductor Herbert von Karajan at his best (before he got unbearably fussy and prissy in his later years), she turns in a remarkable performance that makes one believe in Donizetti's rather silly opera as great music drama. I only wish Karajan had included Donizetti's original scoring for glass armonica in the Mad Scene (the first conductor to do so was Thomas Schippers in Beverly Sills' recording, and it really adds a lot and makes the scene more real as a depiction of insanity and less the "test of skill with the first flute" George Bernard Shaw famously dismissed it as). I'm surprised some of the other commentators dredged up the old Callas vs. Tebaldi rivalry; Tebaldi was a superb singer in her own right, especially in Verdi and Puccini, but she didn't sing Lucia, she wasn't a coloratura, and when she recorded "Traviata" she had to simplify it and transpose a lot of it down, while Callas sang it as written and at score pitch.

@ghostofyeats 5 жыл бұрын

Her voice was responding perfectly that night. Soft high notes were never easy for her, but here they just float out of her throat. If only she could have somehow captured this form -- true, she doesn't have the sheer volume of the "fat" voice, but the passaggio is cleared and the legato is somehow smoother, more easily sustained. And to think she cried after these performances because she felt she was horrible!

This entire recording is beyond reality of this work. Calls is beyond amazing. So many sopranos sing this rep. And many are well regarded fawned over and followed. However even till this day this rendition is something beyond the grave. The absolute assoluta aspect of almost every nuance is presented here. This is what happens when a dramatic soprano is trained by a coloratura soprano from 14. We get all the extras. Sfogato heaven. The entire recording is gorgeous and virile and so very alive. post 1950's..We all know of the plushness and technical scale of Sutherland almost Nordic Germanic version, Sill's magical birdlike ornamenti, Welting's F major version, Gruberova's violin like version, Robin's insane Bb above high C, Peters gorgeous tone with soubrette charm and acuti accuracy, Devia's warmth and dark tone Italianate sound with total solid coloratura, Anderson's scale and darkness of tone alongside bright solid Eb's , Aliberti's closeness of the Callas tone and range, O'Flynn's flute like ethereal version, Jo's high clear pure toned almost boy soprano , Moffo wasa very well rounded version of course...etc etc.. but no one has reached this level of tone facility and power and interpretation except maybe - Leyla Geyncer and Renata Scotto. Those two are the closest really in scale and all the rest of it to this sort of approach. This mad scene is musically correct, in pitch, tonally this sound is a miracle and very peculiar , range wise ideal and the EB at the end is just gorgeous and expressive. The dark and the light are all here . The diction. The legato, the runs, diminuendi, fioritura..Everything. It is an overwhelming operatic experience.

+mariano barbieri Ever heard of dramatic coloratura? Tebaldi sings with even voice but how wide her range was? 2 octaves at most, her high notes are nearly screaming and flat as a pancake. while Callas had a wider range and tessitura, she sings low as a contralto and high as a coloratura soprano. she didn't want to be an assoluta, she was an assoluta. She is the first singer in the 20th century to be called an assoluta, and she is still the only. she sang die Walkure + Turandot the most demanding dramatic roles for dozens of times. Never, not even in her last recordings, like in her decline in 1964 she sang one aria from i vespri, ascending a chromatic scale to a high C descending to low F#3 without landing on the wrong pitch and without bumps and register breaks. uneven register yes but is it a serious flaw as you say? no it was something highly praised in bel canto music and older styles.

@Zva26 7 жыл бұрын

I have to agree with you on this. Callas made something of Lucia and Norma that has yet to be equaled. She made everything she sang sound new and as though it were never heard before. She turned her vocal flaws into assets and her ability to shade and color phrases were/are totally beyond the ability of anyone else before or since. In fact, I prefer her 1959 and 1960 recordings of Lucia and Norma to her earlier ones. She wrenches everything from the music. Tebaldi was a different kind of soprano -------- a modern soprano whose stylistic realm remained in the early part of the Twentieth Century. She had no coloratura or florid ability and everyone knew it. It was a beautiful voice, though she had pitch problems and a very short top register. Callas in her prime sang everything (though she paid the ultimate price), but while it lasted, it burned brighter than any operatic light in the history of singing. She was a revelation and she lived on her own planet.

@Zva26 7 жыл бұрын

Who's arguing????? NO ONE had the ability to undertake the Callas repertoire. From Sonnambula to Lady Macbeth via Alceste, Iphegine, Bolena, Pirata, Norma, Puritani, Armida, etc. Tebaldi was a verismo-based, albeit a luscious sounding soprano who sang a typically appropriate repertoire for her particular voice. She gave great pleasure, but the demonic genius of Callas (both vocally, musically, and dramatically) was something one encounters MAYBE once in a century. Callas WAS opera!

@Zva26 7 жыл бұрын

@Daniel - don't upset yourself about Mariano barbieri. Callas in her prime had a large Dramatic Soprano, but one that had a florid technique, not unlike Lillian Nordica in the early part of the century. She was a "sfogato" who had, albeit for only a decade, the ability to sing just about anything. She had a three octave range, a fully developed coloratura technique (she was trained by the famed Spanish coloratura Elvira de Hidalgo), and had the low notes of a contralto. Her coloratura was true, real, and formidable. Very rare voice, very rare artistry, and a totally unique and never-to-be-repeated artist. Her legacy in opera is virtually etched in granite.

I like the fuller pre-weight-loss sound, and I also love how the high E-flats just pop out of her as if they were. nothing. Dramatically, saving the E-flat for the very end actually makes a lot of sense.

I can't believe that people are still arguing about Callas vs. Tebaldi. It's apples and oranges! Tebaldi had a creaminess and beauty of sound in her prime. Tebaldi had a gorgeous tone and beautiful phrasing. Having said that, Callas was a total artist whose ranges of vocal expression knew no limits. If Callas had a voice like Tebaldi's, she'd have never been able to accomplish what she did artistically. If Tebaldi hit a flat high C, it was a big deal; if Callas hit an insecure top note, is was a small price to pay for the overall performance. With due respect to Tebaldi, whom I admire, ----- to compare her to Callas is sheer nonsense.

@12341234W1 7 жыл бұрын

Larry Mitchell, again I agree with you completely. I myself have trouble with Tebaldi's voice, and it bothers me. You see for many years I listened to that voice, still do, but somehow it does not agree with me. It irritates me that everybody is talking about Tebaldi's voice as being angelic and creamy, and I just don't hear it like that! There is something in the voice I don't care for, her voice comes across for me as elderly, matrone like. I have that with most Italian soprano's from the twenties onward, like Caniglia, Maria Vitale, even Muzio a bit. I wonder, did they train the voicec in a different way, where they aiming for a certain sound?For me a creamy voice is the voice of Francoise Pollet, Jessey Norman, etc. Do you think I have a hearing problem?

@Zva26 7 жыл бұрын

@Christian Wijnoogst - I understand your point. Tebaldi takes the typical Italian soprano approach, which is now perhaps a bit dated. I loved her voice per se, but I found her interpretations to be very generic and sometimes pedestrian. This is where Callas shows what a gap there was between them. Those who cling to Callas' vocal imperfections have absolutely no idea of what she was even about. She conquered roles that were way out of bounds for Tebaldi. Tebaldi was a typical Italian soprano who sang like an Italian was instructed to sing ---------- and she did so beautifully, until jungle rot set in around 1961. She had only her voice to rely on. Callas could elicit euphoria from audiences no matter what condition her voice was in. She was an "artist"; Tebaldi was merely a beautiful voiced Italian soprano.

Scena della pazzia, interprete Maria Callas: non si può ascoltare seduti e neppure in piedi, Viene voglia di mettersi in ginocchio ed a occhi chiusi......Maria ,ormai immortale.

It was not only her talent, it was hard work and she used her mind. She honored the Art of old Belcanto technique and keeps Opera alive! Today its only a World of fake Singers, and true Artists have to fight against that- mostly unknown voices!

Interesting how she avoided the High Eflat in the first part...but sang a very good one at the end. She knew her instrument and was very intellegent about how she used it...

Hai perfettamente ragione sono decisamente le migliori registrazioni che io abbia mai sentito. Ti ringrazio per queste magnifiche pubblicazioni. Mi stai regalando belle ore musica di Maria. La mia preferita da sempre.
