Luciano Pavarotti - Ah! mes amis - Live 1969

Luciano Pavarotti sings Ah! mes amis from act I of Donizetti's La Fille du Regiment (please note that this is the Italian version, not the French version).

Live 1969 - La Fille du Regiment - Orchestra e Coro del Teatro alla Scala conducted by Nino Sanzogno

This is one of my favourite Pavarotti recordings, it proves that he really is THE KING OF THE HIGH Cs. The best Tonio ever in my opinion.

This video is part of my tribute to the late Luciano Pavarotti, who as you should know, died a year ago today (6th of September). I'm posting up a few live recordings of his, just to try and get across the true Pavarotti to those who think that Pavarotti's greatest hour was singing with the spice girls. This recordings showcases the true Pavarotti, a gorgeous, youthful, colourful, joyous and refined voice.

Rest in peace Maestro, may you sing with the angels.

This is the best Pavarotti version in youtube. Superb!!!

In his good days his voice is like fluid gold. Like in this day.

Notice the timbre here. It's so light! The best is when he sings Pour mon âme, or whatever it is in Italian. Of course, he did fantastic in the French roles he performed, but there's always that beauty when he sings in Italian that is not present quite so much when he sings in French. Altogether, awesome performance!

@sebastien1chartry this is not 1990 at all.

[MariaCallasLegend]

@sebastien1chartry No it is surely the 1969 perfomance from Scala!!!Why you say 1990??

[mrbig4050]

This appears to be an Italian version, not French, which I like a lot.

[jaypenn123]

of course, maestro is amazing, but i think the tempo is a little on the slow side...all the more amazing for his vocal stamina!!! rest in peace.
