And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how it is done!!!!!!!
-
Talk about putting the "grand" back in GRAND OPERA! Love Miss Bumbry. A great artist and such a lovely person.
-
oh my god I have NEVER heard her sing well until this.....thank god I can start to see why someone likes her.
-
@operachad well said, and Bumbry also eats the stage as did Callas!
-
I am not always Bumbry's biggest fan, but she sings the shit out of this aria! Brava! I love singers who go for broke and she always did. Not like these tiny voiced mannequins we have today.
Just for the record, I have listened to many versions and my favorites are (for different reasons):
Bumbry--Bravura singing & sexy
Verrett--Huge voice & sooooo Verdian
Troyanos--Mesmerizing. The live Met from 1980. Such a believable performance
Baltsa--Threw it all out there
BRAVI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Great performance done with great vocal stability, BRAVA!!
-
Nice performance, but why did she scream out the high B....?
-
@a96577 It is an open-air performance.
-
brava....ma il vento era voluto??

@olympicfreak678 ajjajajajajajaja! es verdad!

First of all, she looks stunning; secondly she sings this for everything it's worth: upholding the great Verdi traditions. That smoldering chest voice is something to behold; I love the wandering and "lost in thought" attitude she takes. It's a perfect interpretation for the melodramma. I will never forget her El Cid performance at Carnegie Hall: U N B E L I E V A B L E!

Quelle soirée! Quel souvenir! Caballé, Aragall, Bruson, Estes et Bumbry. Le plus beau des don Carlos, avec le mistral de Provence qui s'invitait par brèves bourrasques. Un triomphe inimaginable- j'en frissonne encore et je me rappelle, avec mes voisins, avoir sangloté comme un enfant , tellement c'était beau.
