@lateralex90 Yes because 1966 (the year of this video) Tebaldi was not in her best Maddalena voice, however she is not bad but no more than ok and she pales here beyond Corelli because of the year of the performance. She was the Queen of this role, try her 1957 video with Tucker or her '57 opera recording witg Del Monaco, there she is in endless voice on both Chenier final duets, both from 1957, also in the '60 with Tucker

I just realized how Tebaldi is really tense, and a the final high note, she just looks like suffering and squeezes Corelli's hand to end it faster since she wasn't able to keep such high note only with head voice

May they both rest in peace. They will always be my two favorite opera singers.
I loved their performances at the Met Opera House in New York City. Their singing
really touched my inner most being.

Stupendous, sublime performances- great artists, the likes of which we will probably never hear again. The true Italian sound, for which these operas were written! Thank you for this great experience.

This is the ultimate in the glory of Italian opera. Corelli and Tebaldi make me super-proud to be of Italian descent. When you see this performance, you forget about all the negative stereotypes that are made about Italians. VIVA ITALIA!
Oh this is fantastic stuff...stirs the emotions...bless you for posting this wonderful duet!!!
