  • Diva.

  • Sette anni fa te ne sei andata per sempre DIVINA VOCE D'ANGELO, ma il ricordo della tua voce straordinaria vivrà per sempre nella memoria di tutti noi.

    Grazie per tutte le sublimi emozioni che ci hai saputo regalare : non ti dimenticheremo mai.

    Grazie.

  • Bravo ! !  *********

  • dio che voce che ha !

    

  • Sólo basta ver ka reacción del público ....la adora

  • It is a shame to see a singer that made an important career to get to this mediocre point.

    Everything is wrong:she sings the aria and says nothing,she walks around the stage like a chicken with the head chopped off,the high notes are horrible and also she is flat.

    Poor Tebaldi.....She came from the front door and went from the service one

  • is she in a hurry???

  • @1717PRO In a hurry to get her paycheck!!what a horrible perfomance!!!

  • @TheVengador60 Exactly!!!!!!! This was a disgrace

  • too fast...shes great but lacked use of dynamic in her vocal performance...for instance i really wish she would have respected the composer's work by decreasendoing on the note where dio is...my fav dynamic ever =]

  • A truly great performance, even if it is a little fast. The voice is so rich and the notes are higher than others, including callas.

  • I must say I prefer Callas, preferably in the later years

  • Canta como una locomotora, no respira.....mal, muy mal.

  • @josemaria José le erraste feo, cada uno tiene su manera de cantar que verdaderamente puede gustarte o no pero lo que si importa es que lo que cante sea un vehículo para transportarte a vos donde lo decidio el compositor y creème que Renata lo hace fielmente. Hurra por Renata

  • Bon elle avait 51 ans et on a entendu bien pire! saluons, mais tout de même, ces aigus , si durs, ce n'est pas bien agréable!

  • Wayyy To Fast!!

  • Kind too fast... don't you think?

    But any way.... I love the basketball aka helmet hair style.

    For some reason she reminds me a character from Star Wars

  • @RonaldBarone hahah me too

  • che voce stupenda, che sicurezza! Straordinaria.

  • @ cementoladrillo non non si tu regardes bien à la seconde 27, elle fait coucou à quelqu'un dans la salle... je trouve ça ... déplacé, pour le moins...c'est un peu le problème de ces concerts des années 70, avec les fans, les fleurs, les magnum de cognac vsop (typiquement japonais...)

    mais j'ai bien compris les précisions d'Oneguin65 et de Twisterjoe...

  • @ cementoladrillo non non si tu regardes bien à la seconde 27, elle fait coucou à quelqu'un dans la salle... je trouve ça ... déplacé, pour le moins...c'est un peu le problème de ces concerts des années 70, avec les fans, les fleurs, les magnum de cognac vsop (typiquement japonais...)

  • Best version of the song I've heard. That includes all the greats: Caballe, Battle, Fleming, Price, Callas of course, even Brightman and Church. This one is the best.

  • I hate how she rushed this song. Other than that, I thought it waso.k.

  • Hmmm...I disagree that acting is not the point, even in an encore. I play in a symphony orchestra, and I must say that the encores that mean the most to audiences as well as colleagues up on stage are those that are sincerely delivered with the musical message conveyed respectfully and artfully.

  • if you compare this rendition with Angela Gheorghiu's at Queen Beatrix Jubilee, Tebaldi's comes across as of very low quality - just embarrasing really!!!

  • Just another walk in the park for the Incomparable Tebaldi! Wonderful, wonderful~ Thank you!!

  • She is as good as Callas.. you really can't choose!

    This performance is so effortless.

    PS: I am a big fan of Maria, but all I can do is shut up when I see another great diva singing

  • she rushed it and didn't sustain the line -but did a nice job- She was always known for the quality of her sound

  • I feel like people are missing the point... the waving and strolling is part of the diva thing. As others have said before here... she's trying to indicate comfort and ease as a way of highlighting HOW ridiculously talented she is: "I can do this without thinking!" But of course she is thinking... and the audience doesn't seem to take exception to it! :)

  • I really don't know how people can compare tebaldi with callas...they are the best, BOTH!!! How can you choose one?! This performace in just amazing!!!!

  • une voix formidable, mais un léger déficit d'émotion (... le petit signe de la main à quelqu'un du public, notamment, est quand même un peu gênant, quand on sait que Laureta menace son père de se jeter dans l'Arno s'il ne consent pas à son mariage avec Rinuccio...)

  • @Freedonio C'est un bis, elle peut faire ce qu'elle veut

  • @Freedonio : quel commentaire idiot...

  • @Freedonio live recital doesn't need to be act like an opera performance

  • @Freedonio Le "petit geste" se rapporte aux paroles de l'aria: Elle dit à son père qu'elle veut aller acheter une bague de fiançailles. She's showing that she wants to buy a ring so thatr she can marry her lover. O mio babbino caro Mi piace, è bello, è bello Vo' andare in Porta Rossa a comperar l'anello! O mio babbino caro Mi piace, è bello, è bello Vo' andare in Porta Rossa a comperar l'anello!
  • spettacolare voce!

  • Your a fool, of course she was going through the motions, people turned her into a motion picture and they never wanted to change the channel.

  • Awesome how she makes it look sooo easy. Loved it.

  • i doubt anyone could find better hair than that one throughout all the O mio bambino caro videos on youtube. hahaha

  • Too many "professional" opera critiques on you tube! but to continue this callas v. Tebaldi is silly considering that they were both acclaimed and ms. Tebaldi was in her late forties or early fifties in this clip so for her to convey a little girl or young girl no matter how great an actress will go over as silly! As for me, I enjoy Tebaldi over Callas any day. A more refind but powerful voice in my opinion!

  • Farla più veloce no?......

  • She is gone from us but never forgotten. Renata Tebadli was greatly beloved

    by her fans and always will be.

  • Renata: Sei una regina, come donna e como soprano

    TVB

  • Slow down for fuck sake woman!!!! Sung at far to quick a tempo and certainly not in the same league as Maria Callas. Good voice all the same.

  • I think her voice was awesome and I think she was a great singer but I will always think she was not the better expressing feeling; she acts cold and this aria is not for being sung like this.

  • i prefer Calllus.....

  • this is an encore in a recital, not the recital itself, and not in the opera. It was understood that she was famous for the song, her "hit tune" we might say, and so she gave them her hit tune. She was expected at that moment to be friendly, open and accessible--- no longer the diva in the recital, but the lady of the house serving a surprise dessert. Acting not the point at all in this moment. At other times, yes but here no.

  • @Twisterjoe but still shouldn't see (and any artist) respect the role, esp. if it's opera and it's kinda heavy?

  • Aún tenia bastante y preciosa voz.

  • I prefer Callas too!!! So fast this interpretation.

  • Sure. She is having a bit of a laugh. But you can see that Renata has that special quality that they all lack today. You can see what all the fuss was about in her prime. She is a class act.

  • she was bored..

  • Awesome!

  • no one ever reached renata's art!! renata sei la più brava di tutte!!!!

  • @janitorcoeliopn They did... her name was Maria Callas, the diva of divas.

  • @CallasForeverable Shall we refresh the ancient debate about which is better? They are both dead and it seems that in secret they admired each other!!! As an Italian I root for Renata. I heard Maria Callas mispronouncing a few sentences quite often. To me words are as just as important as a good voice and music in an opera. An Italian opera, of course ;-)

  • @janitorcoeliopn I prefer Callas!

  • but she really is sooo good! I would taker her voice over Maria Callas anyday!! I love Renata Tebaldi!!

  • FENOMENALE !!! Il più grande soprano italiano di tutti i tempi !!!

  • @katesinger if you're used to Callas, the answer is: well, shes not tht into in acting-wise. shes hits the notes, nice coloratura and all, but no little acting. DONT GET ME WRONG RENATA UBER-FANS. but shes not with her whole soul in the singing....

  • it could be part of the character that she is trying to portray. A dady's girl that knows how to get what she wants.

  • Pas au mieux certainement..tempo un peu rapide....mais qui peut-être au mieux en permanence sous tous les cieux ? Dieu? Peut-être...

  • Si buona interpretazione, ma da Renata Tebaldi mi sarei aspettato qualcosa di meglio . Saluti

  • @federic017 eh già...anche io..ma sai questa è la Tebaldi matura e inizia a perdere qualcosa...ma non importa...si perdona tutto ad angeli simili =)

  • Su voz es preciosa, pero el "tempo" de esta presentación es una novedad para mí. ¡Tal pareciera que quiere terminar rápido!

  • @PascualG65 Pascual y que si la cantante quiere llevarte del punto a al punto b en menor tiempo, pero gracias a Renata porque te lleva.

  • @Marcelobasso35 ¡Ey,ey,ey! ¿Yo qué he dicho? No recuerdo haber visitado este vídeo y menos haber escrito algún comentario. Pero este sería el mío: Como

    bien lo aclara @twisterjoe, se trata de un amistoso "bis" en un concierto, creo que en Japón, no es el riguroso libreto escénico de la ópera, ni la presención del virtuosismo personal en un concierto, es tan solo un "encore" solicitado y muy celebrado por su público... pero nunca faltarán insatisfechos que quieran hacer gala de su gusto.

  • I love her!!!

  • The best soprano --- Okulova

  • Comment removed

  • Her hair makes her look like a molllusc or an alien from Mars Attacks

  • considering the time and era I think her hair looks great and the dress devine but this is just my opinion and I am 46 years old so in 1973 I would have been 9 years old.

  • elle va trop vite, sure ce n'est pas ses meilleurs années, dans le passe elle la fait beaucoup mieux.

  • SO GOOD

  • @TwilightMusique1

    It is a little on the fast side, but it is also a crowd pleaser...and may not be one of her personal favorites.... as I tenor I know I am soooo sick of being asked to sing "O'Danny Boy" or "Nessun Dorma."

    On a different note, that night bus comment really had me in stitches with laughter. Very witty my friend, very witty indeed. :-)

    Thank you.

    Now please sing O'Danny Boy and Nessun Dorma - and no skimping on the high C...?-)

  • Grandi donne, grande voce, bravo. Buon pianista.

  • Does she have to catch the night bus home or something??

    FFS slow it down a bit (a lot) and give it some feeling. It ain't a speed contest.

    Truly, one of the worst I've heard to date of this beautiful piece.

  • I have to agree with the speed of the peice. She has a fantastic voice and the higher notes were amazing. But there is no depth, and this song is all about emotional depth

  • I love it when the second year music students try to critique a legend.

  • @brandonichero Second year music students are as entitled to critique a legend as much as the nearest music snobs waiting to display their questionable superiority.

  • @Nulanula

    Good on ya! And all the best for a great career.

  • In spite to be a beautiful woman, for me, a singer to be listened, not to be seen.

  • Magnifica anche questa esibizione della Tebaldi, sempre molto potente vocalmente ed emozionante. Irripetibile.

  • she was as good as Callas.

  • ma cosa centra sempre callas!!!! mi vuoi mettere la perfezione tecnica e vocale di renata e la sua purezza nel timbro rispetto a callas che a volte sembrava un gallinaccio?

  • non mi pare di aver nominato la Callas in questo video.dato che non faccio questi stupidi confronti,a me che per altro la Callas non piace nei ruoli da soprano perchè aveva un vibrato troppo aperto nella tessitura acuta e sovracuta,io la preferivo da mezzosoprano anche se l interpretazione della sua carmen era un po puntata sul nasale.

  • Bravissimo Renata !!!

  • requiescat in pace...w maria callas ....brava anche la tebaldi....

  • Yes, it was too hasty. Was she in a rush for a dinner party or something. It really took the emotion out of it. It is suppose to be a lullaby speed.

  • I agree. Reminded me of Maria Callas's version.

    When you rush this particular aria you don't hit all the subtle tones that you do when you extend the song.

  • MERAVIGLIOSA !

  • Gotta love the 70's. FABULOUS!!

  • She is so good...

  • Unfortunately it is too fast.

  • agreed.

    That's sometimes a clue to a singer losing confidence in their voice. Skipping past danger...

  • un po troppo accellerato....

  • Ecellent performance, but I prefer Callas

  • questa è musica signori! questo è cantare, grande Renata!

    Imparate, ascoltate!

  • un angelo come la definiva Toscanini grazie maestra

  • la Callas(grandissima Artista) ma ne 1973 non era più la Grande che era stata.

    Qui La tebaldi è Ancora una grandissima....... nonostante gli anni di canto alle spalle!!!!!!!!!!!!! una Vera Primadonna!Bravaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaa

  • Muito bonito ! Mas ouçam com a Bydu Sayão . Imperdível !

  • A versão que vc sugeriu, tem aqui no youtube?

  • is she just going through the motions here or what?? i mean she still sounds amazing and i love her dont get me wrong. but she seems so relaxed, shes actually putting off slightly the.."im not really that interested" vibe...?!

  • I get the impression that this was an encore, probably ending the program. Often it's taken a bit less seriously. I know what you mean though =P

  • @katesinger I like her casual attitude here! It's sort of refreshing and approachable, for a change.

  • @katesinger You're right. She certainly doesn't act or sound like a young girl who is trying to convince her father to let her marry her boyfriend.

  • @katesinger You are so right. I felt the same thing. Renata's voice is wonderful. No doub about it.The thing with artists is that we grow to love them and tend to forget they have their flaws: A headache, a heartache, a sore throat, etc.etc. A bad day can happen to everyone. And if you happen to see that performance ( or listen to it), just bear in mind that if we take the "whole" into account, that's where reside their Greatness.The same works for Bidu Sayão, Maria Callas, and so on. cheers

  • @katesinger compared to Callas, she sings (at least in this particular video) without any emotion whatsoever.. she is smiling while singing "if you don't let me, i'll throw myself in the river"

    I mean I read somewhere that this piece is supposed to be half-drama half-comedy (a young silly girl who's in love and threatens to kill herself) but still, even a silly young girl would believe more in her passionate exclamation than this singer in her performance!

  • @shipcomesin No one,no one compares to Callas,the emotions that Callas would make you feel are beyond incredible,Tebaldi had a beautiful voice,but no emotion

  • @arvedsin OH COME ON......LISTEN CABALLE SINGING O MIO BABBINO CARO...LISTEN MOFFO SIGING SPARGI D AMARO PIANTO...LISTEN TEBALDI SINGING PACE PACE MIO DIO AND THEN TALK ABOUT EMOTION!

  • @operalover1959 Nope,no one like Callas,the only one,the Alpha and the Beta,Caballe,no feeling,lovely lady beautiful voice,same with Tebaldi,but NO feeling,weather you like it or not Callas will always be the BEST!!!

  • @arvedsin

    We found out your secret!

    Check it out!

    You try to show your opinion as universally valid, however, your opinion is only a crap.

    But your big problem is, to generalize a wrong opinion and if somebody knows it better ... you're vitriolic, shameless, cheeky or deeply grieved.

    All in all you're not better as the trash of Jackson fans.

  • @ferricheart And I figured you out,see...there's a device you get inserted in you v-jayjay so you don't have to go through PMS every month...

    Oh and by the way,I don't live in youtube(unlike you),have my own business,very young,fairly wealthy and have a career ,so I am not the loser here,your opinion is just as worthless as your brain,if any inside that stupid head of yours.

  • @arvedsin

    wouw ... you're a superman!!

    But your taste is bullshit ..... because Maria Callas, the POPERA QUEEN, the OPERA LIGHT SINGER, caws like a monkey in rainforest and you must be deaf ... SUPERMAN!!!

  • @ferricheart Well it is my taste and I'm not gonna change it for a freaking,fag-hag like you,LOSER!!!

  • @arvedsin

    You cannot change, because every loser is a freaky Callas fan!

    Mrs. Tebaldi is for afficionados ... you noob!

  • @ferricheart Why would I settle the best for you you fucking idiot!!You can say whatever you want and still be a fucking LOSER!!!So you take your taste and shove it up your ass,stupid stinky asshole!!!LONG LIVE THE QUEEN,MARIA CALLAS,FOREVER!!!

  • @ferricheart Oh and on the other channel you can also speak in English,don't be a pussy and talk to me in French,cause you know you're going to be attacked,fucking stupid,coward bitch!!!

  • @arvedsin I like Victoria de los Ángeles underrated, but my fav!

  • @grenadian11 YES!!! What a beautiful voice and FEELING and i also love her vibrato,absolutely 100% agreed.

  • @arvedsin

    Hey asshole! We are on the site of the GREATEST SOPRANO EVER you loser!!

    You cannot compare Callas and Tebaldi because MC was only a singing actress without voice. Oh sorry .... she had a voice but it sound like a cawing monkey in rain forest.

    Don't make a fool of yourself and fuck off ..... wanker!!

  • @ferricheart Easy Mary!!!what's with the insults? Don't get mad,Tebaldi was great,but as you said Callas was incomparable,she was,she is and she will always be THE BEST,forever CALLAS,LA DIVINA!!!

  • @arvedsin

    YES,

    GREATEST SOPRANO OF POPERA!

    She couldn't sing Mozart, Wagner, Strauss, Weber and sang only italian opera crap. She's the queen of OPERA LIGHT!!!

  • @katesinger I totally agree! Her voice is AMAZING. however, the random waving and awkward smiling made it seem as if this piece was the finale and she was ready get out of there. lol. In spite of it all, I cannot deny the beauty in her voice.

  • @katesinger No, it's just effortless for her and she makes it look easy. She was so darned good, she could have phoned this one in. Leontyne Price was the same way in concert. They made it look easy. Ask any soprano, this one isn't easy.

  • Demasiado rapido. No da tiempo casi de disfrutarla y lo encuentro todo un poco subido de volumen para lo cariñosa que es este aria deberia ser. En mi opinion la mejor soprano que ha habido hasta ahora, y no solo en este aria, es Montserrat Caballé. Un saludo

  • Tebaldi y callas son las mejores sopranos que he escuchando!!!!!!!

    Callas siempre sera la mejor!!!!!!!

  • @Avatar2114 No es ni mejor ni peor, son distintas!!!! BURRO

  • TEBALDI RULES

  • Não gosto da voz de Renee Fleming, mas convenhamos, Renee transmite mais emoção que a Tebaldi..

    E Callas é Callas....

  • Renee transmite mais que Tebaldi? Are you retarded?

  • Callas não passava de um mito. Voz imperfeita, cheia de falhas e que desafinava de minuto a minuto quando não menos. Assustadora! Admito que a sua capacidade dramática era impar

  • I am amazed at the relaxed, effortless style that produces such a magnfiicent result. And yes, I love her connection before and after with the audience. Bravo to voice and attitude.

  • This is very late Tebaldi. The attack on the last bit is a bit tough. But, this was the real McCoy, an Italian voice with real squillo and real meat, able to do justice to both Verdi and Puccini without sounding pushed. Compare this to anyone singing today, and she sang everything from Traviata to Aida, Mimi to Minnie and everything in between. There is a video of her in Forza, that is a lesson in how to sing these parts. But this is past her very best.

  • I don't like the low register.

    And this is SO fast!

  • Bem melhor qeu a Callas ela conseguiu conservar bem a voz hein heheh

  • Sua observação não considera os problemas que Callas enfrentou, o fato de Maria Callas nesta mesma época já não cantar mais há anos, e convenhamos a pronuncia de Tebaldi é vergonhosa! Além do andamento bem mais rápido que o de costume e ela ainda não conseguir dar a emoção que a música sugere, coisa que Callas consegue de forma maguinânima! Teabaldi nunca será uma Callas!

  • No, es moito melhor!!!!

  • Ancora con queste sterili polemiche su chi sia più brava la Callas o la Tebaldi! Che noia!!!!!! Entrambe sono due soprani starordinari. Ognuna di loro aveva il suo repertorio musicale d'elezione, nel quale eccelleva, e che ancora oggi le rende delle fuori classe.

    Brava Renata e brava Maria.

  • Concordo plenamente. Nem por sombras, Tebaldi transmitia a emoção, nem atingia tão poucos os tons de Callas.

  • I am a true follower of Mme. Tebaldi, and although she may not have the same dramatic presence as Callas did, I still love Tebaldi's voice. She is one of the few sopranos I've heard who do not make me want to shriek with pain during high notes. Being a soprano as well, I very much appreciate those who came before.

  • 1973, el año en que maria callas dio un recital con el mismo tema y se noto la decadencia de su voz. ahora miren a tebaldi, siendo mayor que maria y menos soberbia aun podia cantar y cautivar al publico, pese a quien le pese.

  • tenía prisa cantando o me lo parece a mí... me gusta más la Montse...

  • Cierto la voz es más uniforme, pero creo que, como dice el compañero, tiene prisa por acabar, le importa un bledo de qué va la historia, y a hasta diría que lo único a lo que se dedica es a darle al fuelle (quien tuvo retuvo) con el resultado de que parece que grita (genialmente), pero grita

  • Tebaldi had an amazing voice but the amazing feeling Callas always gave isnt there. Tebaldi was great, but she didnt live her music the way Callas did, still a great preformance.

  • A stupendous voice! Perhaps the best naturally endowed voice of any soprano in the 20th century. But that reedy not so perfect but beautifully trained voice of Calas won the day.

  • Inacreditavelmente Bela.....minha nossa!onde eu estive todo este tempo 32 anos sem te ouvir...valeu a pena?, tudo vale a pena quando a alma não é pequena!, Pessoa

  • Listen to 'music', without rating it by technical peaks and troughs which you can measure on your over-priced 'Hi-Fi'. We all have our personal favourites, but we should not demean other wonderful artists in trying to score points in silly arguments. Callas, Tebaldi and several others can bring me to tears on my cheap sound system. I enjoy them all, and only wish there were more who could compare. Long live beautiful music, and singers with such voices, passion, pathos and humanity.

  • voce molto ricca , brava

  • certo , gli anni 70 non sono positivi per nessuna delle due cantanti ...... voci ormai in declino perchè purtroppo gli anni passano per tutti anche per i grandi...... ma sempre grandi restano.

  • For a voice like that to come with such ease from a body like that is a gift from the heavens, stop carping. close your eyes and listen

  • I can not speak to the technical quality of

    any singer's voice. Just my .02c, but no one's performance is equal to Callas.

  • good

  • i think callas vocal range was perfect for this song..... so go ahead and call me a callas lover dont care.....

  • Tebaldi could sing Callas under the table and then some. Callas was a better performer no doubt but did not posses the voice Tebaldi did..

  • When I listen to things that they both do, I prefer Tebaldi to Callas because of Tebaldi's richer tone. But I have to concede that Callas's greater range allowed her to do things that Tebaldi couldn't.

    This obviously wasn't the best recording of Tebaldi doing this aria, but it was still better than Callas could do.

  • I have to say this, so I can sleep tonight, these two ladies Callas and Tabailda are the same or close to the same age when Callas sang her last concert with this aria. Please let them both live, and understand that the voice is a fragile instrument, one was abused for lots of reasons. I need say no more. Just for God's sake people enjoy them all!!!!!!!

  • ¡Coincido totalmente! Al fin alguien coherente.

  • Grazie. Godo di di leggere le osservazioni della gente, ma alcuni sono in modo da contro i cantanti che non gradicono, io preoccupi per le loro saluti mentali.

  • ma che lingua parli?

  • Grazie per voi commento. Acconsento, io non commento spesso per quanto riguarda la maggior parte di loro che siano unstabel, cadrà sulle orecchie del dearf.

  • traduzione?

  • She could have slowed it down a bit....seems like she's just rushing through it to get to the end

  • Two very good versions are: Dame Kiri te Kanawa and Carmen Monarcha. Thanks for upload it.

  • Deffinetly a young girls song....

  • A particularly moving and emotive

    singer who deeokt connected with her

    audiences on a unique level.

    Her surprisingly short career in the

    US for its era is certainly one of the most

    beloved and memorable of all

    the great superstars of her her time.
