God, I forget how much this gets me. Should have prepared myself for the tears before I pressed play. Astoundingly beautifully. My soul just took a dip into the divine. Thanks for posting xx
This scene is from a swedish television concerto, just a few years before she recorded the legendary deutsche....live from bayreuth 1966....it is true that Flagstad was amazing and she had a very clear, beautiful voice, but flagstad could never produce the glittering heights and breathtaking power and controll that nilsson possesed. I think that you could compare her to gods hands on earth, a divine vision that the world never will see again. the world are still waiting for her succesor..
Lanilsson, Your observations are spot on. To that I would add, that although Flagstad is totally glorious, I find a warmth, a commitment to the music in Nilsson, that I do not find in Flagstad. I think the difference is shown by their attitudes toward music. Flagstad is reported to have thrown several of her recordings in a lake somewhere. Thank goodness they were retrieved later. Nilsson loved music and served it with devotion, always putting music above her own self.
