  • I've never heard this aria sung more perfectly

    what a great artist!

  • It's a shame more people haven't seen this video. This is, by far, the best performance of "Abbietta zingara" on Youtube, from a criminally underrated post-WWII bass. Jose van Dam (from the Wiener Staatsoper in '78) is also excellent and sings with consummate ease, but he lacks Clabassi's timbral darkness and plushness, as well as his authoritative presence.

  • @khankonchak van dam lacked the bass singing

  • STREPITOSO!

    try to find nowaday a bass like that.... 10% maybe...

  • @ultrogote do you know if the record is live or play back?

  • SUBLIME !!! DIVINO !!! IMMORTALE !!! Uomini come questo segnano la storia : un COLOSSO della lirica come pochi. Per sempre PLINIO nell'OLIMPO del CANTO.

  • Great singing and beautiful imagery in black and white, they really created masterpieces back then. He is also very classy.

  • @Cavaradossi1981 zaccaria, arie, rossi-lemeni were awful. I don't know why Callas always wanted them.

  • Excellent, just... excellent
