PERFIDO ... OR BASTI - MARIA CALLAS, STIGNANI Y PICCHI - NORMA 1952 - LONDRES

Esta genial grabación de Norma cuenta con varias cosas que la hacen particularmente especial. Por un lado y en primer lugar Callas, con su interpretación magistral y esa voz portentosa, torrencial y todoterreno. Tenemos a Sutherland haciendo de Clotilde... y por último la reaparición de Stignani, 6 años antes de su retiro definitivo.
El sobreagudo final de Maria, limpio y claro, a destacar gracias a la calidad del registro.

Are you sure this is the London 1952 Norma? The "re sobreagudo" sounds lighter than what I originally heard on the vinyl recording. Though very beautiful, the original sounded like the TGV going to and from London at the same time!

@sillyboydeux Sí, lo es, absolutamente. Tal vez esta grabación, con respecto a la original en vinilo que has escuchado, no suene tan bien. Pero, al menos, por la reacción del público, la intuición me diría que sí, que lo es. Además, fíjate en sus acompañantes, Stignani y Pecchi, y, en otro momento, a la mismísima Sutherland. De todos modos, si no me engaña la carátula del CD original, es la de Londres.

Desde luego,el sonido suena mas puro, mas no todas las representaciones tienen misma calidad.

the final High D is wonderful!!!!

[ubedajils]

oh yes! Absolutely ASTONISHING!

Put that in your eye Joan Sutherland. who takes a 20 measure break before her High D.. Maria takes the High B then Hits the High D. and its huge.!

A dreadful opera fit only for screaming

[saverioorlando]

At Norma trio,between 49-55,Callas was unreachable,the score needs coloratura di forza,passion no screaming!

@Eiswirth That is so funny! It is Sutherland with the manufactured middle that sounds like she has a potato in her mouth... YOu really need to start listening better.. Her middle( Sutherland) was rotten, it wobbled, and it was the reason for her decline. So much for her.. I would never listen to Joan any day.. I hate Joan any day.. .. Rotten rotten, rotten musicality, no sense of drama and everything, I mean everything sacrificed for a high note. She puts me to sleep.

@kgarmaker123 Are you kidding? Callas was a great artist, but Sutherland was a superior singer. Callas, as usual, sounds like she's singing with tobacco or toilet paper in her cheeks. Ands I'll take Joan's D any day over this.
