Scenes from the 1984 Italian mini-series "The Life of Verdi"? The singing is from the 1953 Santini studio recording? it's Callas singing but she didn't "do" this as a vocal sound track - as she had left us in 1977.
It does show how associated she was with the role, that the producers of the series would choose her voice for the Traviata segment rather than a soprano still singing at the time of filming.Thanks Arnold

  • Callas should have been the actress in in this movie.

    It was pointless to put a mediocre actress in it, then dub her voice.

    Callas is so much more beautiful, and an incomparably better actor anyway.

    What a sad pity.

  • @Ellevius The movie was made in 1988l Callas died in 1977

  • Respond to this video...  The movie was made in1988. Callas died in 1977

  • Callas's voice is not only superb in its clarity, but her emotional purity is unmatched!

  • GREEK GODDESS !Divine voice ..!

  • Maria Callas. Great No point in comparing any soprano with one another. Silly!!! They all have greatness. Tastes make a difference. Ridiculous to make comparisons, Oh God!!!

  • @alexgomez2 I picked up on you saying that Sutherland had a superior vocal technique - that was what I was getting upset about, not the rest of your comments, which I do understand and agree with. I was just in a bad mood and picked up that part of your comment. Apologies for my swearing, it really wasnt necessary. Im not normally rude and I normally like commenting with overseas people. Regards.

  • @MrNooneseesme - I think that you don't speak Spanish to understand that I actually agree with you. Your insensitive comment full of bad words tells me that in spite of the fact that know about opera to understand that Callas had no comparison, you are an uneducated, grossly rude individual. Please check twice before you give your opinion on a comment made in a language you obviously don't understand.

  • @alexgomez2 - my French isnt good but I get the jist of what you write and I agree that that Sutherland is good..... but you have really fucked up by even daring to mention Callas - Callas is the Goddess and has no equal. Shame on you

  • fucking narrator, piss off. Callas is a Goddess how fuckin dare you interupt one millisecond of her perfect voice you scumbag - fuck off and die

  • @3551933 actress

  • cada cual oiga y dusfrute de su estrella........para mi la nebulosa era joan sutherland.........asi que a oir cada cual el estrellato que quiera........yo prefiero lo imcomprensible........

  • @3551933

    An advanced logic calculation then tell that the possibility is equal to zero.
