Renata Scotto "E ben altro il mio songo" Il Tabarro

[pfeliks]

I was at this performance at the Met. Scotto was electric. The audience went wild.

[Bigman240]

She was small in stature, but the voice was as big and expressive as a mountain. Yes, she had slancio, a passion and feel for the music that went far beyond the notes. I, too, find her high notes rather shrill, but the overall package certainly outweighs her vocal idiosyncrasies.

[maurrizio]

@Rhisiart85 hai ragione!

[gustavoanmosura]

ABSOLUTAMENTE MARAVILLOSA COMO SIEMPRE

[NewJersey5858]

Greatest ever ever ever ever ever ever.

[Soporificat]

She is a rock star! Hardcore!

[GiuseppeSaronno]

I wish I could see, or just listen, and the duet between Michael Giorgetta, of which the most beautiful passage is: "Stay close to me, the night is beautiful" I am convinced that Mc Neil has sung to great

[nogrits4me]

Puccini does in under an hour what Wagner takes hours to unfold: raw, hard, realistic tragedy that when performed by a Renata Scotto shakes, rattles and rolls. . . .awesome opera and awesome singer. . . . .and we can see so much of her work via the wonderful telecasts. . . .re: Elisabetta and Manon Lescaut. Brava my favorite singer.

[spizzell1]

@nogrits4me You are so right. I just love Puccini, his music and dramatic ability are amazing. Scotto does shake, rattle and roll. Will said.

[allanaki]

Gentile elfomusic62, probabilmente lei che parla tanto di rispetto, dovrebbe incominciare a riempire il vuoto del suo cervello con la parola educazione. e poi, dopo trent'anni di carriera alle spalle come cantante lirico e insegnante di canto, le orecchie credo di averle buone.

[allanaki]

pah..... sempre quel miagolio nella voce e quello squèk negli acuti...

[elfomusic62]

forse......lo squèk che Lei sente è il riverbero della voce nell'ampio spazio vuoto fra le sue orecchie...........consigliere­i più prudenza e rispetto di fronte ad una grande artista...........

[MusicyLife]

@elfomusic62 ahahhahahaha bellissimo il tuo commento :P

[alvarito45]

Onegin: Aquí también todo excelente y además completo!!

Gracias. Brava Renata!!!

[qyzuf]

There's the question of the recording method...It's never quite the same as actually being there

[spizzell1]

Folks you are seeing the images up close, she is selling this to an auditorium. You are singing to the back row.

[francescop1023]

spettacolare Giorgetta, la migliore per me, interpretazione maiuscola

[castodivo]

I don't why is over-singing this. It's such a conversation piece. I mean, there's no reason to be shouting this aria.

[CONTESTAR]

I totally agree with you, though I have to say that the conviction with which she blasts it almost sells it to me... ;-)

[odabellissima]

brava la Scotto,e bravo il tenore!!!! ma proprio bravo!

[vikoguy37]

SCOTTO IS THE BEST GIORGETTA!!

BRAVA

[papageno1983]

thank you god as well!!!!

[dimofleto]

Thank you God!!!

[tenorisimo1975]

BRAVA

[rockgor]

Scotto had a nice voice till about 1975. After

that all the screaming took its toll.

[castodivo]

I have to agree. That high C... I'm shaking my head...

[ginlemon29]

A great exhibition as usual for Mrs. Scotto!!!

[qklq42]

Very underrated, this great Renata Scotto. A real Italian singer. She gives 100%. Therefore her language is perfect, her moves are naturel. Why always Callas and Tebaldi ? The were also great in their own specialleties. But Callas not in Puccinis operas (she could not understand the character of the women, as she was an american. Renata was to lovely. But we stil have Renata Scotto, Magda Olivedro, Virsinea Zeani, Leyla Gencer, and so much other adorable singers.

[beckmeister70]

Wonderful, wonderful artist and singer Renat! Bravissima!

[organdude44]

What an amazing artist! She is greatly missed!

[birgitnilsson]

questa è una che non cantava le note acute, ma le gridava....

[oden60]

"Questa" è una donna ed artista che oggi te le sogni signor birgitnilsson. Oggi va di moda il nn "urlare" bensì il nn saper "cantare".

[idraote]

I usually love Ms Scotto a lot but in this video I feel she exaggerates: Giorgetta is young and frustrated not raving.

This is too dramatic a rendering of what, after all, is a light moment of the opera

[Drelnis]

No, I'd say the nostalgic element of this particular scene is not a "light moment" of the opera. (This scene with Stratas and Domingo is especially touching) I feel it's even stronger than the death of Luigi. I mean, come on, people die all the time in every opera, but to see in a Puccini opera, people actually talking about the love of the land and of friendship, that is rare, since every other Puccini aria would be centered around love.

[verdiotello]

Simplemente estupenda, hoy en dia no se pueden encontrar cantantes asi, que se entreguen completamente al personaje, es increible poder ver esto en ella, como describe todo a tra vez del canto, fabuloso Brava Renata!!!

[norah54]

vergognosa.questa è una delle tante che faceva un repertorio che non era suo.

non ho parole

[oden60]

Ritengo che le parole che non hai siano contenute nel termine "vergognosa" affibiato alla Scotto. Beh, allora guardarti allo specchio: da qualche parte vedrai scritto quella parola e ti chiederai: "ma è rivolta a me?". Per come di esprimi verso un personaggio pubblico, e quindi criticabilissimo, con tale "competenza" penso proprio di si...

[norah54]

prima di tutto chi ti dice che non ho le competenze per poter giudicare.quello che sento è un lirico leggero che faceva un repertorio che non era il suo.ti consiglio di informarti sul repertorio che affrontava la scotto nei primi anni....lì era magnifica..nulla da dire.quì MOLTO discutibile.

[oden60]

Beh, qualche decennio più di te, cara norah54,

anni di Conservatorio, anche se ho fatto altro nella vita lavorativa, sacrifici per vedere, passando prima dalla "provincia", i Grandi sul palco della Scala, Liceu, Real, Met, C.G.,ecc. Della Scotto ho scritto in varie occasioni su YT che di "scivoloni" ne ha fatti, eccome!. Ma da quai a dare della "vergognosa" ad una artista che,non certo sposorizzata,ma caparbia,intelligente concreta dopo 40 annni di carriera,mi sembra oltremodo"vergognoso".

[norah54]

chiedo scusa mi sono espressa male.

bella voce ma non adatta per tabarro!

Discutibile

[birgitnilsson]

come urlatrice, non è vergognosa.

[oden60]

Spirito di bassa lega signor birgitnilsson!!

[billyguns2]

OH MY GOD! The slancio, the accento drammatico, the perfect diction, the musicality, the drama, the sheer gutsiness of Renata Scotto here is beyond compare, perfect for this role! This and FANCIULLA DEL WEST are my two favorite operas by Puccini, because I feel they are the most honest.

[RVP57]

I have to agree, also about the two operas.

[leonardovittori1]

@billyguns2 this is pretty. She was still in relatively good vocal estates.. here.. She took on some roles in the 80's that sort of ruined her lovely voice.. My she was thin/ svelte.. what a figure.

[oden60]

Musicalità, tecnica, legato, ecc. Tutto questo mai disgiunto da doti di grandissima interprete. Grazie Renata. Italia ingrata!!

[GEF69]

you've gotta love this woman, she had cojones, true, her voice was not at her best here but man, did she convey

[motardbear15]

Everybody knows that "la" Scotto was at her best as actress when her voice was no more at "her best" !!!Like a "certain" Maria....

[pirocagrande]

Magnificent..This is Opera-acting with the voice..the voice is organic, it does not have to soud robotic and all PERFECT..perfection is static and boring..HUMANS are not perfect, therefore, singing process is organic and not mechanical..it has to be full of life and emotion..and La Scotto is all that!

[motardbear15]

yes I totally agree with you..It is why I wrote this,because I found discusting some critics ,here,on Scotto !!!

[dacooldl]

Amen!

[billyguns2]

Anyone hearing and seeing this who does not "get" it is someone I do not care to know; they must be deaf, dumb, and blind. This is the operatic art encapsulated in less than four minutes. Does anyone know the identity of the conductor? he's quite good!

[JBL228]

James Levine is the conductor.

[Turand0t]

Maybe that was tooo harsh.... Not awful. But strained... undoubtedly. So I take it back.

[Turand0t]

Is this fantastic? Great actress, but the high notes are awful! The rest is quite good though...

[ChuckNYC71]

Wow!

[erin129]

oh my god. renata is at her best, impeccable and ferocious actress that she is. but i'm so impressed with moldoveanu. it's so sad that he was pretty much an afterthought in his prime (he lived in the shadow of the so-called three tenors), when the houses today would probably storm castles and sacrifice babies to have such a tenor in their roster. wow. thank you so much for sharing!

[spizell]

Wow, she is simply amazing. When she was on she was the best acting, singing opera singer. I love the note she sings at 3:34.

[antoheionn]

who is the tenor? Is this a comercial recording?

[hobo197]

moldoveanu

[inforavo]

Grande duetto, che coppia...

[wenarto]

she is the best Giorgetta ever! no wonder Maria was afraid to do this.

[macciboma]

Grande temperamento nel

canto mi emoziona tra le mie

preferite.

[jm960]

this is thrilling. her studio recording with domingo, new philharmonia, and maazel is an absolute must have too! they bring all the excitement and the voice is a little bit cleaner than here. brava!

[Pertile23]

This clip is absolutely fantastic!!! NO FEAR!!!!

[JBL228]

Sweet Jesus, she takes no prisoners. I'm out of breath just watching her.

[erin129]

wow!!! pieta, renata, pieta! have mercy on us poor mortals, lol.

[Ruxton]

She's awesome as usual.

[janiejanejo]

Truly an amazing clip! What intense commitment from Scotto et al - knocks one's socks off!

[hightenor123]

I am right behind that, anything else from this production would cause me to be really happy!

[hobo1975]

great onegin65,thanx!

have u got anymore from this opera?

i would loved to hear the tenor more!
