@ferrykalos Ma per favore, un solo sbaglio nel SolB!

[GoldenAgeSunshine]

Instead of blaming and criticizing the compromised top note (like Callas would say: a voice is not an elevator!) - the top register was not Tebaldi's best -, one should admire the MORBIDEZZA, FRASEGGIO, DICTION and natural ELEGANCE. All these are examples of the first rank. Amen.

It is one of the best performances of this aria I've ever heard

Tebaldi is great

And this aria is very beautiful

Unfortunately ur ad hominem sarcasm does not hold, because i am a Hong Konger currently living in the US. Try again son.

Just because Tebaldi is a legend doesnt mean she is flawless. Yes Callas is flawed in my opinion if u haven't noticed.

@PAZ0619 Americans critiquing an Italia art form, Amazing ! Well why not,we do have nothing to learn from the rest of the world, we do know it all.

@johan1938 and that pitch wobble Tebaldi lack that too

[ferrykalos]

Ammiro tantissimo la tebaldi e in tosca è stupenda ma questo filmato è davvero di una tosca pessima. Il finale da 3.00 in poi è al limite dell'accettabilità. Lei stessa se ne accorge. Resta il mito di una grandissima.

I agree that she is well known and remembered today, but as a student of operatic singing, i must say that opera is not just singing, she has amazing voice, but at the end of this performance my thought was she has great gift and voice, but many opera singers have.. what i find remarkable performance is when u can feel chills and when u can feel the tears coming up,when singer can produce such emotion that u can feel the same one as the singer in the role..

@ArchiducDeBelgrade I guess you had to be there, because the audience at the end gives an uproar of emotional response. If you think she doesn't have emotions because she's not acting, I think that is a compliment to her true musicianship. She is a focused musician, not a puppet actor. This is why she is so remembered today.
