Caterina, still love you after listening to "Classics with a Chaser" (and still have it) album as a teen in 1958! She is still living today, age 84, I believe.
I think the problem is that today's audiences are not as demanding of their performers - fluff will do.
But I have not given up just yet. There are performers out there that have come up to the plate and people are starting to demand more of that standard: Kristin Chenoweth and Hugh Jackman come to mind.
And as more people watch the "old guard" on youtube, I think more great performers will come to light.
I used to love to listen to her 'continental' pop and jazz recordings when I was a child. I had searched for some of her original LPs and am thrilled that this great talent has been reissued on CD. Thanks for posting this magnificent performance. Caterina, If you see this message, I LOVE YOU!
This woman is absolutely fantastic. She is by far the best female vocalist since Vera Lynn. Not one of the of the currtent ones could hold a candle to her.
this woman has more talent spilling out of her than all of the modern clowns that think they can sing or think they are musical...
It's embarrassing to watch Beyonce with those tree-trunk legs floundering about (her "talent" I guess) or the absolute train wreck - Britney Spears as the mass consumers of the world call them "talented"... Compared to Caterina Valente, they are a joke.
Caterina you are as beautiful as you are talented. Thank you for your beautiful contribution to this world!
Your 100% right.....she is right up there with all the other contemperary jazz artists... See the clip of her scatting with Ella...I agree Caterina is amazing.
Moto perpetuo by Paganini. This is the most exciting performance of thsi piece I have ever witnessd and I concertized this peice for 10 years. Bravo! Bravo!
Virtuosismii vocali che pochi cantanti si sono potuti permettere, e comunque sono d'accordo con "sergiobarlozzi" sul degrado dei gusti musicali degli italiani.
Ricordo quando alla Rai conduceva trasmissioni tutte sue,spesso con suo fratello:altro genio!Era una vedette completa ed internazionale! Uno spettacolo!
E' un'ottima intrattenitrice ed essendo cresciuta in un circo, è anche un'eccellente acrobata ed oltre ad essere bella ha "CLASSE". Mi sa che nostro Signore dopo averla plasmata, ha buttato via lo stampo! Grazie a voi per avermi fatto ritrovare la grande Caterina più che Valente!
This beautiful dame, voice, Caterina is marvelous. She sang a tune, calypso, chachacha?, I remember she used to say: "Gondola, gondo cha cha cha, in the way to Sud America": somebody remembers? I would like to hear this song again.
Meravigliosa Artista.
Vorrei sentire questi "nuovi, odierni talenti" su questo gioco vocale.
