A perfect example of tough love. Watching Bernstein conduct is more entertaining than the actual production. This reminds me of an episode of the Flintstones when Wilma sighs "I love watching Leonard Bernstone conduct!" A flaming dynamo. It's a wonder the baton didnt burn up in his hand. Like a great coach, Bernstein wont let up until the play is ran perfectly. Only when every last drop is squeezed from the bottle does he relent. "Great Take." What an understatement. Carreras version of this classic is probably the best ever recorded. With a whole lot of help from his enemy. I mean friend, Leonard Bernstein. What a collaboration.
Well, Don… With all due respect… The original Tony on Broadway, Larry Kert, sings the living hell… Like an Angel on Earth… of this ravishing song, also. Agreed, though, José Carreras really does sing like a god.
Oh, Vincent!!!!!!!this is wonderful to watch and listen to!!!!!! So utterly beautiful to watch the whole creative process and hard work going into delivering one line, and eventually a song!!! Thank you so much!!!
Inmejorable, Carreras. Cuando contemplas en su esencia a cada uno de estos enormes maestros, no puedes sino emocionarte y ponerte virtualmente a los pies de ambos.
Esas son las cosas que no enseña ningún conservatorio: el sentido del ritmo, de la articulación, del gesto melódico de una cultura que no sea específicamente europea. A Carreras, aún con la belleza de su voz y su musicalidad, no le resultó nada fácil sonar newyorkino
At the edge of my seat.....Nuckles firmly on my chair........and my heart racing......until the end of the last note.......beautiful! Pure music! Genius!
¿ Cuántos cantantes pueden haber grabado una música de la mano del propio compositor de la pieza ? Creo que muy pocos . La interpretación es perfecta , y el Sr Carreras canta maravillosamente bien . Perfecto .
La interpretacion es pesima. La pronunciacion horrible y el tenor tiene tantos problemas en tempo, timbre, dinamica, fraseo que Bernstein tiene que hacer mas de 100 pausas de correcion.
Cuando uno escucha y ve todo lo que implica la composición y la interpretación de una cancion, mucho trabajo se entiende la molestia del Director Leonard bernstein. Que al final es el encargado de que todo salga bien.
Carrara.... per me (e penso solo per me) non è il mio tenore preferito.... a me sembra sempre che da un momento all'altro possa commettere uno sbaglio.. Non solo per questo brano..... Scusate se la penso così

It became a masterpiece 🌟 Of course the auditions were difficult. But... we are lucky to see a recording of how they were made to be 🌟✴⭐
Oh my God, how Beautiful, my heart sings and cry's at the same time.

Thank you so much!!!
That last take is so flawless. His face was so relaxed.

I love in the beginning Bernstein coaching Cararas and smoking a cigarette.
Yeah. You can’t be a little rebellious anymore. We’re all so controlled now. I feel an animal.
You know, Bernstein COULD have come up with a few more words of praise after that perfect performance. "Great take." Indeed.
Oh my, this is the first time I have heard a classical composer swear on camera! (2:43)
😊
I would argue he’s not a classical composer. His compositions are far more romantic, wouldn’t you agree?

We love you CARRERAS
what a voice!
The most beautiful sound I ever heard - his voice❤️❤️❤️
pathetic.
What do you mean, doristracy?
Sorry, dennistracy?
Carreras nailed it magic
At the edge of my seat.....Nuckles firmly on my chair........and my heart racing......until the end of the last note.......beautiful! Pure music! Genius!
5:46 I think he said, “Holy shit”
Wow... and what a great singer....
Why is Carreras cursing? "Porco iddio"

For a moment I didn't see Bernstein happy and smiling. This is brilliant.
5:16 🤣
are you here after watching Maestro?
5:46 Didn't know Carreras was chill like that
Mr Moneybags slavishly counting pennies in the awkward mix of pure art and impure money. He looks so out-of-place, dosen't he?
"ma porco iddio" cit
His voice is great. Diction a little weird at times ie "never". But why is it a Tony with a foreign accent? Was the book written that way?
But nothing of this appears in the Movie😢😢😢😢
Smoking in front of the tenor practicing. Those times :))
Unhealthy times. Yeah
5:46 !!!
Grande Carreras
7.00 on
bravo
La voce di Carreras è troppo tremolante anche. se il timbro sarebbe buono e. lui è simpatico.
The legend carres
i prefer this on a broadway voice than opera voice
Until minute 9:00 I didn’t get why even do this. Then it became very clear.
Underful to hear MARIA WRONG I LISTEN 10 IT is so soli deo gloria
Fantastisk soli deo gloria
"Porco Iddio," says prima donna Pepe Carreras. He sang beautifully, but he was a pain. Not Te Kanawa, not Troyanos, just him.
Pianissimo, thats not pianissimo. Sheehs, must have been nerve racking
what a result 7.00 on
5.45
thank you Vincent - cliff in Tokyo
Bestemmia in perfetto italiano 😮
Carrara.... per me (e penso solo per me) non è il mio tenore preferito.... a me sembra sempre che da un momento all'altro possa commettere uno sbaglio.. Non solo per questo brano..... Scusate se la penso così
cómo sería eso? sentís la voz inestable?
Non mi sarei MAI aspettato la bestemmia di Carreras. Peccato...una grossa macchia sulla sua immagine
