  • Ella no fue mala compañera , porque no le quitó nada a nadie . Ella hizo lo que mejor sabía hacer , Regalar su arte a su público haciéndolos partícipe de un momento inolvidable en sus vidas .Gracias María por haber existido!!!

  • LA Stupida, Canary Sills, Scooping Gruberova, Lardserrat Fatallé, Netrebwhore, Gargleghiu, Phlegming, Crazyssey and all the rest wish they could have this note in thir vocal chords. Tebaldi only in her most wild dream could of sung this.

  • En los años gloriosos de Bellas Artes...

    

  • TAN MALA COMPAÑERA, COMO SIEMPRE...

  • @Babywinona No es lo que dijeron de ella la inmensa mayoría de cantantes que con ella cantaron.

  • @Babywinona EL HECHO DE QUE ELLA POSEIA UNA VOZ PRIVILEGIADA COMO NUNCA HUBO NI HABRA, Y QUE LA USARA NO LA HACE MALA COMPAÑERA

  • @Babywinona ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ COMO ES POSIBLE QUE TENGAS TANTA IGNORANCIA AL RESPECTO???????????!!!!!!!!!!!­!! DEBERIAS DOCUMENTARTE MAS

  • @ma34xl typical rabid Callas fan, resorting to personal insults towards other singers to justify your beliefs despite the reality that your ears tell you!

  • @multimill What do you mean? I really can't understand you

  • What does it mean, re sobreagudo 'in fortissimo'

  • @gustopheles High D with all the powerful of the voice.

  • @ubedajils thanks for translating

  • This makes me wish she had recorded (or sung, I'll take a pirate of Callas anyday too!) "Ah! Sento o mio bel angelo" then ascended to that high D.

  • Maria Callas siempre es absolutamente avasalladora, aprovecho para aplaudir tambien al tenor que (aunque soslayado por semejante cañon de La Callas) tambien emitó el Re sobreagudo junto a ella. Bravos los dos.-

  • @Arbus2 Gracias por tu comentario y doblemente gracias porque, a pesar de llevar yo "años" escuchnando esta pieza, me has descubierto algo que yo no sabía. Y era que Di Stefano (el tenor) también se lanza al sobreagudo. Me siento algo estúpido pero me ha hecho reír. Francamente, el cañonazo de Callas lo tapa todo. Un cordial saludo.

  • @ubedajils gracias a vos por tu cordialidad amigo, un saludo.-

  • @ubedajils Thank you Arbus2 and ubedajils for pointing this out. I had to listen to it more than 10 times but I finally heard him and though he is late, he is wonderful. As for Callas...the chorus was obliterated but there is a kind of happiness in this destruction.

  • Soy mexicano y me parece un exceso de rigor que haya mexicanos que pidan escribir México con x, cuando escriben sin respetar mayúsculas y demás signos de puntuación; baste recordar que Benito Juárez escribia México con j, y que no hay consistencia para aplicar la x, por ejemplo: Xochimilco, Jalapa, xóchitl, Jalisco, Xoco....

  • TheMr Maz, you are right. Only one note!! It tells me much more than whole arias sung by other sopranos. She was really giant!! God bless you dear MARIA ! ASSOLUTA E DIVINA!!

  • She burned her voice....but...what a voice!!!!

  • @Alicantino1976

    "burned" carries such a negative connotation:

    i prefer to say that she knew what she had[the best voice EVER, period] and wasn't afraid to use it as much as she wanted. she performed and changed lives with every role. people wept openly at her shows..and this was a common thing. if one could do that for her "public", why not do it as often as you please. all this talk about premature voice death is for those who can't enjoy what she gave us: OPERAatITSabsoluteBEST. whatavoice!!

  • una pregunta esta mujer comia amplificadores?????????????

  • Sobrecoge, verdad? Qué enormidad!

  • @ubedajils Le dio a mexico una de las mejores aidas de la historia..

  • Sometimes I don't like Callas. I think  she screams and should be put down, yet, there are times like today when I realise she gave more to the THEATRE that is opera than any other singer. Her sense of drama in music is stupendous. Brava La Callas

  • me too...how can a singer make us feel bolth ways like that? only callas...lol

  • One note...all it took was ONE NOTE (and WHAT a note it was too!!) for her to STAMP her authority on the whole situation!!I can think of not ONE soprano that could/can do even a fraction of a FRACTION of anything Maria did during her career!!I guess that is why we are still holding her aloft as one of the primary 'saviours' of opera (or at the very least one who extended the life of opera as we know it!!)Viva la Callas...prima donna ASSOLUTA!!!!

  • @TheMrMaz Well, yeah, it was an okay note, but where's the freaking cabaletta that's supposed to lead up to it?

  • @bronxbearbud Maria Callas nunca grabó esa cabaletta, ni en directo ni en estudio.

  • @ubedajils But what do you mean?

  • orale!!!!, es una pena que los mexicanos no sepamos apreciar nuestros espacias culturales, y pensr que paso por bellas artes casi todos los dias, en fin, muy chido el video, solo como dato cultural, se escribe México XD

  • Agradezco tu comentario. Sin duda, como fan de Callas, pasar por un templo operístico donde ella reinó y triunfó pone los pelos de punta.

    Agradezco tu nota cultural, sólo aclararte que en España, la RAE admite el término Méjico para referirse a tal país en la ortografía actual y "consiente" México con idéntico sonido pero como recuerdo de una ortografía anterior, donde la X sonaba como ahora la J.

    Un saludo ;)

  • Es México como quiera que sea y como lo diga la RAE es cuestión cultural que cada país, y eso no evita el saber y aplicar el uso verdaderamente correcto del nombre de nuestro México, si ustedes los españoles escribieran como hablan ni ustedes se entenderían.

  • De hecho no me gusta nada la grafía con x, me parece fuera de lugar. De seguirla en el vocabulario, deberíamos escribir con x muchas palabras que se escriben con j. La x suena ks y chau.

    De hecho, la x no sonaba como la actual j, sino como la inglesa sh. Cuando el sonido de la j se volvió sordo y se igualó al de la x, se semplificó la ortografía dejando la grafía x para el sonido ks, y la x con valor de sh se pasó a escribir j. Luego este sonido sh se retrajo hasta transformarse en el actual.

  • @DiomedesDioscuro

    Todo se deforma, el habla, la escritura, el arte etc... y el que nos agrade más una letra que otra - en este caso una X o una J- no significa que se deba cambiar la grafía de un nombre como es México.

  • No es cuestión de que nos agrade o no nos agrade, es cuestión de reglas ortográficas del idioma: la x suena ks. El que lo quiera escribir México que lo escriba, pero eso no significa que tal grafía no pueda cambiar como todas las demás, incluida por supuesto la de los nombres de los países.

  • where is the O Sento O Mio Bel Angilo??

  • Callas never performed that final of the aria in her recordings or stages performances.

  • @thomastmwc That cabaletta was discovered after 1960 by Richard Bonyge, long after Maria had stopped singing I Puritani. Needless to say, Sutherland was the first soprano to perform that in a long time. :)

  • What must it have been like to witness this live? Absolutely thrilling, nothing less! I like how Callas shows up at the end, almost like if to tell the audience, "OK, raise your right hand for the benediction...here it comes...cha-CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAA!!!!" Thanks for posting this amazing clip.

  • See, here is where the Divine Voice makes its appearance.. going above all the rest of the singers & orchestra. The note was stable fresh & penetrating. How Glorious !! Much to the contrary of Joan "ms. potato head" Sutherland & Anna "I gargle mouthwash while I sing" Netrebko ~ those two poor ladies are tired, pressed & they cackle up the ladder trying to reach a WISP of what the Divine Callas was. Ch' 2 bad Maria Callas was & always will be " LA DIVINA" ;) .. p.s. Netrebko has no chin :)..

  • What nonsense, Sutherland used to do just that all the time, and much better.You clearly haven't listened to her live recordings of Puritani or Sonnambula or even Beatrice di Tenda, otherwise you wouldn't make such silly comments... I'm sorry but Callas's note here is just horrible... Yelp yelp yelp!!!

  • Sutherland used to scoop on high notes an that's a fact for example /watch?v=xavcouNRcow she scoops on the high C.

  • You want relly bad, incomplete and really flat?watch Anna Netrebko Puritani Finale...Prepare to get grossed out...

  • La potencia, la fuerza y la intensidad del final de Callas, ya lo quisiera para si aunque fuera la mitad de ello la Netrebko. Una aficionada a su lado. Respeto tu opinión, por supuesto, pero no podemos comparar una hamburguesa con un solomillo de ternera.

  • Ja, ja, ja. La Netrekbo es muchisimo muy atractiva para ser soprano. En La Traviatta interpreta Addio del Passato y lejos de verse terminalmente enferma se ve super sensual. Despues vi la de la Rumana Georghui 1996) y Oh gran Dios! , al igual que la de otras: Freni, Caballe, La misma Callas, Scotto, etc. Ahi se nota que no solo se trata de tener una tecnica perfecta, sino que la interpretacion tenga el caracter humano de tocar el alma. Razon misma de una Aria. La Netrekbo no puede lograrlo aun

  • Absolutamente :D

  • @thelepewguy

    Quiza y el error no este en esta brillante cantante, si no en la dirección.

  • Not only is the note FORTISSIMO! like ubedajils mentions at the end of video but HUGE! just listen to that reception from the audience at the end. So don't hate (appreciate) because maybe in youre after life you will be able to hit a note like that:>)

  • Wow...now I know I can be mean sometimes, but ouch!

  • bitchh shutup ~

  • Comment removed

  • ummm...making stuff up doesn't make it true....

  • I have heard her hit them, but it was rare, and yes she did do a lot of runs and trills.. these were like vocalizing for sutherland.. and made it easier.. It bugged the hell out of me, but still she is a great singer.

  • SHUT THE FUCK UP ASSHOLE!!!

  • You know I have listened to this five times now. I can't believe it! Where the hell does she get off hitting such a strong D right at the very top...no gliding or swooping or anything. True bel canto and probably dangerous to replicate.

  • Am I wrong thinking that at the beginning of the D it sounds like di Stefano is trying to reach the high D too?...

  • When Callas begin the high D, another voice, probably Di Stefano (or maybe one bariton) sing another D, but one scala below, not a High D for tenor.

  • uhm...I really think it's the high D one octave below Callas' high D, which would be a tenor's (di Stefano in this occasion) high D!

  • The Callas`s Voice was Brilliant!

  • She never sing the aria "Oh! Sento o mio bell'angelo". Trust in me, in 1952 for Callas nothig was difficult. Listen her singing Lucia, i.e., and you'll see that I have reason.

  • Ok, thanks. I prefer the final with the aria. I like the high D at the end, but thers is no reason ti use it.

  • The aria ends with that high D, so that's the reason. In my opinion the aria is good but I don't miss it in this recording. I've heard all the opera before and I have enough good feelings haha. Thanks for your opinion.

  • Yes and Armida wich is incomparable.

  • Si elle n'a jamais chanté cet aria ce n'est bien evidemment pas par peur de sa difficulté, certaines démonstrations dans sa carrière le prouvent aisément! C'est tout simplement que malheureusement à cette époque les chefs (maestro) procédaient à de nombreuses coupures, ce qui nous a souvent privés de cabalettes et autres morceaux de bravoure que la jeune Callas à l'époque aurait volontiers chanté!

  • Absolument.

  • Thanks for your comments. I just think that it would be interesting to have the cabaletta by Callas... with that glorious High D.

  • According to a Sutherland telecast, the cabaletta was long deleted from the opera. Bonynge apparently discovered it.

  • Well, I guess that's a bit of a lie, with Maria singing it 10 years before Joan did. But then again, maybe Richard found it for Maria?????? Probably not.

  • Oh wait, nevermind. The aria within the finale was the one that Richard discovered. I thought it was the whole aria. :D

  • The Voice of the Divine !! Its glorious force !! Truly worthy of echoing forever through the fibers of musical time !! If only Maria were still alive today .. how lucky the artistic world would be to have this legend of radiance alive still. !! Bravo !!

  • Yes ...And how much a ticket cost to see her,it would truly be well worth the xtra cost.
