Leontyne Price sings "Libera me" from Messa da Requiem by Giuseppe Verdi La Scala Orchestra & Chorus Roberto Benaglio, Chorusmaster Herbert von Karajan, Conductor 1967
After President Kennedy was assassinated, she sang this at the Met and I was there. It was one of the most moving musical experiences I ever had; it was as if Heaven had opened up and we were allowed to hear an angel sing.
All I have to say is SICK!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely RIDICULOUS!!!!!!! She is an unparalleled GODDESS! If you are a voice major and don't study her work, you should be slapped to sleep! Sopranos like these come once every blue moon. Effortless perfection! Thank you, Ms. Price, so much for giving the world your gift.
Leontyne Price - undeniably one of the best voices of her generation....but for me, she had the best eyes in the business! You look into her eyes and see the face of God - while hearing His voice. An almost inhuman combination.
@@danafripp4120 The First Lady of Opera came to Knoxville, Tennessee; my mom, grandmother, and I attended. I got her autograph on a program, got to touch her hand and kept coming back time and time again to get more autographs on more programs. I saw those beautiful eyes also and would never trade the experience. :)
I love the passion in her eyes, facial expressions and voice the electric pulses she send through my body makes my heart race and blood cold from hearing her combined with this superb opera orchestra😍🥰🥰🥰
I love the fact that she performed her part from memory. That removes a barrier between the artist and the audience. Also, if a musician has learned a part by memory they know the music more thoroughly than if they hadn't.
@9:20 she starts to kill it. And @9:52 - climactic ecstasy. She slays it. Glorious the whole thing. I get excited every time I stumble on this performance.
That's not what is admirable, it's quite common for professional singers and instrumentalists. What is incredible is her music making and vocal technique. Memorization is small pickle in comparaison.
Très étrange de voir une video dont presque tous les musiciens sont probablement déjà morts...surtout quand il s’agit d’un Requiem. Le chœur et l’orchestre de La Scala sont toujours merveilleux dans les innombrables enregistrements qu’ils ont fait de cette œuvre. Karajan est aussi superbe. Ce précieux quatuor soliste est l’un des meilleurs de toute la discographie. Ô chance inouïe d’avoir un tel témoignage de leur art lors qu’ils étaient tous jeunes et beaux et avec leur voix au zénith. Ne vous contentez pas d’écouter que la Price, tout le DVD est superbe.
Oui, je crois que ce Requiem de Karajan avec, outre la Price, la Cossotto, un tout jeune Pavarotti, Ghiaurov, choeurs et orchestre de la Scala temple incontesté du lyrique dans les années 50/70, est parmi les meilleurs des très nombreux enregistrements de cette oeuvre, avec celui de De Sabata (Tebaldi, Rankin, Prandelli, Rossi-Lemeni) et de Giulini (Schwartzkopf, Luchetti). A noter la remarquable maestria de Price qui chante sans partition (ainsi que la Cossotto) avec une totale assurance et beaucoup d’élégance. Chapeau bas!
MYYYY GOD!!! HOW GLORIOUS!! FLAWLESS with ARTISTIC PRECISION!! A VOICE of PEARLS, EMERALDS, RUBIES, and DIAMONDS RESTING on a DUVET of LUSCIOUS SABLE!!
What a Glorious instrument ... it is my favorite rendition of all the other sopranos who have assayed the Libera Me. For me, it is as close to heaven as I may ever hope to get, Bravo Diva!
She never said Verdi's music suited her better than other sopranos. She said Verdi, along with Barber and Richard Strauss, were the composers that suited her voice best. She was right, although her Puccini and Mozart were almost as good.
I picture the angels heads bowed in silent worship whilst she sings her solo after 4:40. I burst into tears as I tried to write this. Heaven is going to be something worth the grace expended. Truly hope to see you all there.
@@spencophany For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.” (Romans 8:19). Yes dear brother, all creation longs with us...
By far my favorite performance of this. What a voice! And what dynamic and emotional range! It all comes alive magnificently. Brava, Ms. Price. I don't know how to express in words my eternal gratitude. ❤❤❤❤❤
La Price's supremely beautiful high note at 7:14, which she holds with stunning clarity and purity, for 10 secs, is the "pure diamond" moment of this glorious performance for me! Thank you so much for uploading.
This is the definitive performance of one of the all time great soprano moments in music. How come we don't have great opera singers like Leontyne Price any more?
There are many very good, even excellent, opera singers at present, but greatness comes along only once in a while. That is why she is such a treasure!
I love how Pavarotti with his distinct voice goes with the high note at 11:48. Never heard that in another performance. It enhances the angelic voice of Leontyne so much. Climax big way!
You're right! I had never heard that in any other performance either. Now I'm wondering why. I'm going to look at the score and see if that note is in the original. It doesn't matter though, that moment as you pointed out is "climax big way!"
Brava! Leontyne Price's voice blows me away! And what a bonus to see her singing this, too. Michael Harper, countertenor and Principal Vocal Study Tutor at the Royal Northern College of Music, UK, just played this as the guest of 'Inside Music', BBC Radio 3.
Thank you. I've been a loyal fan since seeing her in 1973. When I met her briefly after the recital, all I could say was, "Thank you." I have many of her recordings. Got another one last week. And every time I listen to her I still say, "Thank you."
It just hit me! Check 8:25. This was taped in an empty house! It was live, but there was *no* audience! Imagine performing for an audience you could only see in your mind. Performing *this well!!*
A marvel., as well as the hole Karajan Requiem with the extraordinaries Cossotto, young Pavarotti, Ghiaurov. Please take note that Price sings without script, as well as Cossotto: unique!
qui l'artista sublime e generosa....sembra andare oltre e von Karajan annulla l'orchestra e lei sfodera una cavea di suoni ...figli dei gospel...ma anche dellla lezione gregoriana del venerdì della Tenebre; raggiungendo in maniera naturalissima tutte le insidie stilistiche ...poichè nel suo repertorio ha molte le opere di Verdi...dove non ha mai deluso per lo studio e la modernizzazione dei ruoli...Voce strumento...assoluto.Émouvant...Chapeau...e Herbert l'aspetta e la mette su un piatto di suoni ...angelici.
The is my favorite part of the Requiem. I only sang it once when I was only still a choral singer . When we got the this part, I would start lip syncing so I could listen to the soloist with the chorus.
It is hardly possible to reach this level and it is not possible to be better. Only a few recordings reach this level - Toscanini, Reiner, etc. I like this the most. But it is my taste only.
Ms. Price is so dynamic that you really don't have to have cameras on her all of the time. This is mass talent and Ms. Price would over shadow everyone. Just my humble opinion.
I think it's racist to cut to Karajan twice when she is finishing her sections, giving him the credit for her musical genius. Also I dig around TH-cam desperate for live clips of her and all I find is Aida. Aida and Nabucco kind of passed me by as well. Frustrating and wrong!
NO! Karajan would overshadow her, for sure! Conducting an ensemble THAT SIZE take a massive amount of talent and a lifetime of orchestral study and experience. That's MY humble opinion.
Wow! Effortless effort! Ms. Price is majestic and the conductor was marvellous! The orchestra and the background singers were superb. A rich banquet of talent, indeed!
@@Cat-no8ts True! It's just when someone says *background* singers, I think of the *Supremes* I don't think they could hack this job! Hope you are healthy and safe! ⚡🔥💙🔥⚡

Jean-Marie, my friend; I've *found* you on this beautiful day!! Our beloved Leontyne is 95, and as far as I know, still going strong. The Queen of Opera is as old as the Queen of the United Kingdom, and both are *glorious!!* Tonight, I'm going to listen to every video of Leontyne, that I have not watched before now. It should be an interesting and most excellent pursuit, since people are putting up music, day after day. This is likely to be a multi day birthday celebration 🥳🎉🥳🎉!! I trust you are well, and celebrating in your own way. I know that we are only two of many that are celebrating Tyne's 95th. Many, many *very* happy returns of the day, Miss Tyne, our friend!! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
@@Trinite33 Well done, my friend, well done!! I knew that I would find you through Leontyne! I still don't have my verdammt glasses, which were ordered a month ago, so this is gonna be short. I will, however, get back to you when they finally arrive. It's easy to find you via Leontyne!! Blessings . . . 🌊✨👁️🗻👁️✨🐬
QUEL CHEF !!!! on le savait ... mais quelle démonstration !!! il galvanise tout son monde ... choeur, orchestre et soliste ... incroyable maîtrise et quel résultat !!! un Libera Me de feu !!!!
The sound of Leontyne's voice is unlike any other! Its just extraordinary! Leona Mitchell's version is the closest ive heard to Miss Price's interpretation.
Libera me, Domine, de morte aeterna, in die illa tremenda Quando cœli movendi sunt et terra Dum veneris iudicare saeculum per ignem. Tremens factus sum ego, et timeo, dum discussio venerit, atque ventura ira Quando cœli movendi sunt et terra. Dies illa, dies irae, calamitatis et miseriæ, dies magna et amara valde Dum veneris iudicare saeculum per ignem. Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine: et lux perpetua luceat eis.
Tyreese kadle: what amazingly sharp musical ears you have! Thank you bringing it to our attention. Stunning! This, for me, is the Libera Me that expresses the most passion, fear and trembling, joy and consolation! Bravissima La Price!
Bellissima ma la più bella resta sempre quella perfetta e sensazionale della Tebaldi con Toscanini e ricordiamo non da studio ma live. Una performance così non la sentiremo mai piu

I'm not a musician but my own reaction is that she makes it sound effortless but that belies how she must have worked so hard!
MIss Price is still with us. 97 years old coming up 😇😇

🤨She has a great voice, but the rest is nonsense.
My perfect, glorious Leontyne Price. Hers was the first opera voice I ever heard. That was sixty years ago. It still thrills me to the bone.
It surely does; it most surely does!!
🔥❤️🔥
It is the same for me. She amazed me with her incredible voice almost 40 years ago. The first opera love - forever love
Amen
@@brookeggleston9314 , l'ha fatto!
To the soul and spirit as well.
Leontyne has an angelic voice, Pavarotti did the fold like in no other performance until today
This recording of Verdi,s requiem is after my taste the very best ever done. Listen to this singers..followd by a fantastic KARAJAN!!!
Absolutely perfect. Hard to believe this was recorded 52 years ago.
Not when you stop to remember that Ms Tyne is 93 years old!
She was 40 in this recording.
I love the passion in her eyes, facial expressions and voice the electric pulses she send through my body makes my heart race and blood cold from hearing her combined with this superb opera orchestra😍🥰🥰🥰
I love the fact that she performed her part from memory. That removes a barrier between the artist and the audience. Also, if a musician has learned a part by memory they know the music more thoroughly than if they hadn't.
@9:20 she starts to kill it. And @9:52 - climactic ecstasy. She slays it. Glorious the whole thing. I get excited every time I stumble on this performance.
That camera swing to Karajan bringing in the Dies Irae is one of the most iconic visual moments in music history.
Mr Karajan shows his own visuals whitch not help orchestra and choir
You got the point. So selfish. The orchestra and singers ? Just nothing for him.@@user-gz7qe8ls9j !
There has been many greats in this but for me this is pure masterclass! Beautiful!
extraordinaire Léontyne,interpretation insurpassable,50 ans après,elle me donne encore le frisson....
Can we talk about how she memorized it as well? She’s a genius!!!!
It is a liturgical text.
@@jamesupton4996 I know it’s a liturgical text. That’s what makes it harder to memorize…lots of repetition plus it’s been set a million times.
That's not what is admirable, it's quite common for professional singers and instrumentalists. What is incredible is her music making and vocal technique. Memorization is small pickle in comparaison.
That part! Lol
It's really easy to memorize

Simply the BEST!!!
God, she really was amazing. Nothing else to say. Sometimes just the pure ability to sing is enough.
That choir and Leontyne are putting on a clinic.
SIMPLY DIVINE!!! The Diamonds, Rubies, and Pearls of the Soprano Voice!!! A GIFT from GOD!!!
MYYYY GOD!!! HOW GLORIOUS!! FLAWLESS with ARTISTIC PRECISION!! A VOICE of PEARLS, EMERALDS, RUBIES, and DIAMONDS RESTING on a DUVET of LUSCIOUS SABLE!!
Her voice is made for this role, Verdi showpiece work.
Stunning..
MAGIC. EXCELLENCE. GOD'S ANGEL. DIVA. LEGENDARY. LOVE. TALENT. CLASS. GRACE. BEAUTY. UNTOUCHABLE. UNSTOPPABLE. UNMATCHED. BLESSED.
Gorgeous singing, and I always thought she was also an incredibly beautiful woman.
What a Glorious instrument ... it is my favorite rendition of all the other sopranos who have assayed the Libera Me. For me, it is as close to heaven as I may ever hope to get, Bravo Diva!
Do more than hope. Make sure you get there to hear her once again, one day.
Her phrasing here makes this Libera me so fantastic! Beautiful voice! I truly believe her fits Verdi like no other soprano.
She said that too in an interview.
She never said Verdi's music suited her better than other sopranos. She said Verdi, along with Barber and Richard Strauss, were the composers that suited her voice best. She was right, although her Puccini and Mozart were almost as good.

This is the definitive performance of one of the all time great soprano moments in music. How come we don't have great opera singers like Leontyne Price any more?
Lack of good voice teachers.
People want movie-star looks in tiny bodies, instead of VOICES!
There are many very good, even excellent, opera singers at present, but greatness comes along only once in a while. That is why she is such a treasure!
I recommend you listen to Michelle Bradley, Latonia Moore and Betty Garces. All fabulous black sopranos and Supremely talented musicians.
The training is horrendous these days.
Leontyne cantava con così tanto trasporto che riusciva a far amare l'opera a chiunque...❤❤❤
Talented genius at work here. No one can touch her on this. No one. Cannot get enough of this.
I love how Pavarotti with his distinct voice goes with the high note at 11:48. Never heard that in another performance. It enhances the angelic voice of Leontyne so much. Climax big way!
