LA TIZIANESCA COMPOSTEZZA DELLA CABALLE' E' ASSULATAMENTE PERFETTA PER IL CANTO NOBILISSIMO DI QUESTA REGINA.GRAZIE VERDI,GRAZIE CABALLE'

[GeorgiNM]

If this is part of an entire filmed concert, it would be the earliest Caballé on film after the 1966 Paris concert, and along with the Orange Trovatore... I hope it is indeed one! And if it is, it's a must have for every Opera fan.

To DanyelHawkes: In what respect do you pronounce Caballe to be Callas' successor? She doesn't sound like Callas nor does she act like Callas did. Have a look a Callas singing this same aria and think about it.

[GeorgiNM]

@JessyeNormanFan Caballé and Callas were in mutual admiration. It is even said that in one interview Callas responded to the question whether she sees someone as perpetuating her own art in the modern age with "Only Montserrat Caballé". I don't personally care about that, but I must say, one mustn't sound and look like Callas to be her successor, we have Aliberti for that (she's quite good actually!). Caballé could "feel" the music extraordinarily well. And the diamantine voice.

Faltan los superlativos, una interpretación redonda. Gracias Encorepapageno

La Superba indeed..her voice at this stage is wonderful and her top notes more secure then they became later. She has an almost maternal feel to her singing that caresses rather than rouses..unlike Callas who is full of emotion period!

[DanyelHawkes]

Maria Callas' undeniable successor.

[DanyelHawkes]

Maria Callas' undenyable successor.

Caballe at her finest, in total command of her instrument with all the fabulous, unsurpassed legato, pianissimo, solidly secure in the top of her register and divine low notes. Heavenly singing. Effortless beauty, I could listen to her glorious voice forever.

Thank you so much for this! Any idea where a video of the complete concert can be gotten?

[troppofiato]

This is a treasure and a rarity - video footage of Caballe in her absolute prime. I found the performance a bit bland compared to other live performances of her singing this aria that I've heard, which have more passion, but it is nevertheless supremely beautiful and astonishing vocalism by any standard. Thank you for posting - do you have any more?

bellissima testimonianza!! la Caballé al TOP

La magnifique époque de Caballé. Le timbre, la longueur du souffle, la clarté de la diction, la facile évidence de la voix. Et l'un de ses grands rôles de surcroît. C'est splendide et nostalgique.
