Montserrat Caballe "Wie Melodien zieht es mir" Brahms

[libroworm87]

scoop much?



[THSChoir]

Could she had any more warble? She danced around the pitch. I thought this was terrible.

[ConradHansen]

Meine Güte, wenn man schon mit Noten singt, dann könnte man wenigstens

richtig ablesen. Und diese ständigen Portamenti machen mich einfach krank.

Auch ein Superstar muss selbstkritisch an diesen feinen Liedern üben.

Frau Caballe scheint das wohl nicht nötig zu haben.

[gotthelf100]

@ConradHansen Na ja, der Liedgesang war nicht gerade die Stärke der Caballe, wenn man mal von spanischen Liedern abzieht.

[gotthelf100]

@ConradHansen Und überhaupt, was sind Liedinterpretationen mit miserabler Textverständlichkeit schon wert. Bei all meiner Hochachtung für die Operndiva Caballe.

[vonFalkenstein77]

Better than Callas but I´m not fond of Caballe ´s singing at all. Just compare her to Dame Joan, Renata Tebaldi or Birgit Nilsson.That´s the real thing...Nevertheless interesting but I guess that this depends on Brahms!

[syretta2]

I prefer her voice when she sang with Freddie. Guess that makes me not so much a fan of opera.

[HaroldHeslop]

Terrible quality. I gave up listening.

[BillyBudd56]

@HaroldHeslop Dumb unthankful!

[HaroldHeslop]

@BillyBudd56 I've just noticed this bizarre remark. Is it a literal translation from some other language? Certainly isn't normal English and means nothing to me.

[BillyBudd56]

@HaroldHeslop Really?

@HaroldHeslop

What are you referring to when you mention "quality?" Her diction on words like schwept is questionable, but her vocal technique is rather professional.

[HaroldHeslop]

@2Tenor777 The sound of the broadcast. Lots of crackling and atmospherics. I couldn't comment on diction because I couldn't hear much.
