  • シミオナートのアムネリス!

  • posso fare una domanda? ma se questo è il 1964 e giustamente è stata videoregistrata una grande opera con randi interpreti, perchè negli stessi anni non c'è traccia di ripresa della più famosa dell'epoca, cioè della callas? Io non capisco e lo chiedo a chi è più esperto di me in materia.

  • one of the finest videos I have seen on YouTube...an absolutely consummate performance of this great confrontation scene in which every aspect of these two most willful and heroic characters is so completely brought to life.

  • @Agorante when he was a young man he loaded wagons with bales of hay. That will do it.

  • Meravigliosi!!!!

  • Look at those Pipes on Vickers and I don't just mean the vioce!

  • In an alternate universe Vickers would have been a power lifter. Quite a physique.

  • I think Vickers is good in these classic heroic roles. But playing a realistic, modern character with phychological problems? No. In that he looks like a Tristan who landed in the wrong opera, topped with some Boris.

  • Squisito Grazie tante!

  • Two great artists. Each had such a powerful presence, not to mention the power and splendor of their singing:) --
