Jose Carreras- Nessun Dorma live in 1975

I figured that one more rendition of Nessun Dorma was just what YouTube needed. :-P

Jose Carreras sings "Nessun Dorma" in recital in California, 1975. (29 yrs. old)

Never really suited him, but a nice energetic rendition.

this from my tape of Jose's first USA concert, in Carmel, CA in the fall of 1975, while he was singing Nemorino at San Francisco Opera! He let me put the microphone right in the footlights in front of him!!

I can't believe I met this guy. He came back to my home town of Seattle where he was treated for Leukemia to give a benefit concert for cancer patients. My father, a local tenor, interviewed him. We were both star struck. He is one of the most passionate and sensitive people I have ever met.

@MaddieFWall nice :)

Pavarotti once said that Carreras was the last of a long lineage of great singers. He had a great natural ability to pull off great performances whether or not he was in great voice.

he looks like Marlon Brando in that picture~! I like his rendition and he certainly is one of the "few" really great tenors.

[sofik964]

he looks like Ernesto CheGevara))))

@nightstylo in italian:nessun dorma! tu pure,o principessa nella tua fredda stanza guardi le stelle che fremono d´ Amore e di speranza...Ma il mio mistero e´ chiuso in me...il nome mio nessun sapra,no,no...sulla tua bocca lo diró quando la luce splendera... e d ill mio baccio sciogliera il silenzo che ti fa mia (chorus:il nome suo nessun sapra,e noi dovrem,ahime,morir,morir¡¡) Dilegua,o notte...tramontate,stelle...al­l´alba vincero,vincero´...VINCERÓ!!!!

[inalagata]

@nightstylomore or less he says:nobody sleep...you too,princess,in your cold stay (room) you look at the stars that tremble of love and hope...but my mistery hides inside me...nobody will know my name...no,no...over your mouth i will say it when the light shines,mi kiss will undo the silence that makes you mine.Night, dissipate....hide,stars...In the dawn i will conquer.

sorry my english, its better when you read or listen in italian,its pure poetry,you can find it in youtube.

@operabitch77 Maybe Josep sang roles that were too heavy for his voice, but "sang like a pig" is crude. How many tenors reeeally sound this good, in their primes or out?

[nightstylo]

thanks and a bow to him..
