Renata Tebaldi as Mimi "Donde lieta usci" La boheme

[80Mrmirko]

Interpretazione da manuale: portamento pulito e mai esagerato, semplicità nellemissione che denata una totale padronanza dello strumento vocale, legato made Tebaldi cioè insuperabile, dizione perfetta, il suono negli acuti corposo ma mai tagliente grazie al suono perfettamente raccolto e proiettato, gli smorzati a regola d'arte che non appesantiscono un'aria scritta per una persona semplice Mimì.

E dulcis in fundo il suo timbro di una bellezzae pulizia sfolgorante.

Grazie Renata

The greatest Mimi - she was born to sing this opera - sound is so beautiful, interpretation great.

D I V I N A !!! davvero la voce di un angelo

[rmegna]

La Mimi per i secoli!

[MrArthurovenezuela]

La mejor Mimí de la historia...una voz inmensamente grande y, sin embargo, muy dulce...y canta con sentimiento inigualado...una voz que trasmite amor...

Arturo de Venezuela.-

Renata, unforgetable and DIVINE!

[MissFireMagic]

Incredible! It brought tears to my eyes.

[uniqueattack]

geez, sensitive Tebaldi fans, I like Tebaldi! Just saying I like Freni too.

[malfada22]

When I hear Tebaldi sing Mimi, there is no one else who can sing this role, I don't care if it is Callas, Scotto, nobody dead or alive can sing this role like her.

[peque1204]

She is the greatest in the whole world and history, and I must confess that she made me cry when i listened un bel di vedremo from Madame buterfly in her voice... Just she made you cry, even when you don't understand the lyric...jejeje

[carloge77]

La più Grande Mimì di tutti i tempi!

[billyguns2]

For me Tebaldi was the quintessential Puccini singer; there are so many phrases that I simply cannot hear any other way then the way she delivered them. Minnie was her supreme achievement, and also Puccini's.

[11455RN]

Freni had a supreme vocal technique OMG but a little cold at times

[uniqueattack]

and a more glorious top!

[Vairguy09]

My favorite recording of Boheme is Tebladi, Bergonzi, d'Angelo and Bastianini. I don't think there is one part I don't like! Her rendition of this aria on that recording will make even another soprano cry!

[BitOfKid]

Tebaldi is for me the only Mimi. I first saw her in the role more than fifty years ago and no one else has ever come close.  Such beautiful singing and such great expression.

[uniqueattack]

really? what about Freni? especially from "Sono andati...to the end?

[doncarloselisabetta]

meravigliosa

[VivaTebaldi]

Tebaldi is great as Mimi - very touching and so feminie - the most sumptuous in opera, and

Caballe is the other one. Tebaldi has a warmer tone and better legato.

[Andante735]

Caballe was a lovely Mimi on recording- similar to De Los Angeles in approach. I don't think she was as effective dramatically as Tebaldi or Freni. I prefer her as Liu in Turandot, and definitely her Norma.

[OperaBR]

Tebaldi was the best Mimì ever, indeed! Freni and Sayão are in a close second place, but Tebaldi is supreme in this role... She simply had everything: the warm and musical phrasing, the expressivity, the vocal beauty, the emotion, the delicacy! ;-)

[Tarboujh]

First Tebaldi, then Freni - 2 Mimi's for all time. No one will ever sing like this again.

[dennisdeem]

Totally. Freni was my favorite 'til I found Tebaldi on youtube. You are most accurate!

[Rossalita]

I agree!as mimi she is perfecta!

[Orfeus80]

Perfect in phrasing, emotion and tonal beauty. The unique Mimi of Tebaldi.

[mrrk]

The greatest Mimi ever. Joan Sutherland said Tebaldi's recording was the greatest ever.

[SueAnnNivens]

I agree, the greatest Mimi, really made me cry.
