These two are sheer magic to my ears. They say they both have a marvelous chemistry. Of course; they're both from Modena. They drank from the same fountain of beauty.
Gracias Amigos. Subir esta Joya es muy placentero para los admiradores de esta magnifica y bellísima soprano y el Maestro Pavarotti. Yo soy Krausista total pero me rindo ante estos FENOMENOS. 🎶🎶🎼🎼🇪🇸. Un vijo tenor.
My favorite opera. A sad tale of lost love. I always cry at the end. When he yells Butterfly, Butterfly. And her life ends Her heart/life broken. 😢 He was so callous.
This is the first recording I heard of Pavarotti and Madame Butterfly. It was one of the most transformative moments in my life, as a small child listening to audio recordings at the public library in my town in Alabama. An extra thanks to a public library where someone not white and/or privileged could listen to music like this from around the world. It inspired me to travel around the world and then finally really appreciate what had been erased and destroyed of my cultures in what was renamed the USA.
We ALL must keep working to retain/reinvigorate classical music in our kids' schools. It (classical music) is FAR too precious to allow mindless bean counters to just cancel from our society.
Meravigliosi insieme Freni e Pavarotti. l'emozione mi attanaglia ogni volta che ascolto questo sublime duetto e l'intera opera dello straordinario maestro G.Puccini.
What a glorious version of this superb duet. I adore Freni in this role (or any other role, she's marvelous). I am so grateful to youtube for having these magnificent moments that light up my life.
I have listen, many great sopranos do Madam Butterfly, from Maria Callas, Renata Tebaldi, Kiri Te Kanawa, and many other , but this, with Mirella Freni and Pavarotti, sends shivers through my body. It never fails to capture my soul.
It is almost unmatched, however Ermonela Jaho is currently performing Butterfly around the world to probably the highest standard in decades. I have seen her sing the role three times, amazing, she pours her soul into every note and her voice is very beautiful, not the biggest soprano voice, and not the celestial sound of Freni, but a very beautiful sweet voice still. Listen to her full versions on here, the one from Madrid a few summers back, her entrance scene is divine.
@@sophiabaldaracci5523 Freni's voice had a celestial sound that can hardly be matched. But is you get the chance once the world returns to normal to see Jaho sing Butterfly you wont be disappointed. She pours her heart and soul into in and her voice, although not huge, still copes well with the demanding piece, there is a sweetness to her sound and she hits the notes and resonates beautifully.

They first performed publicly at La Scala in 1965 in a production of La Boheme. They were childhood friends! Freni starred in the 1975 film Madama Butterfly opposite Plácido Domingo. This definitive 1974 with Freni is the only Pavarotti performance that I'm aware of.
The best Mirella Freni and Luciano Pavarotti

That's an interesting way of saying they shared a wet-nurse...
Remarkable talent that has now sadly gone for ever. Just remember them for the legacy that they have left.
How beautifully Von Karajan phrases the postlude...so touching...
Best rendition éver!!!!!

Freni and Pavarotti - perfection for Butterfly.
My favorite opera. A sad tale of lost love.

Her heart/life broken. 😢

Weltklasse, unerreicht !!!
Without question the best version of this masterpiece.
Pavarotti et Freni, les 2 merveilles de Modène... comme le vinaigre balsamique...
Dúo de amor espléndido. En la vida real, amigos entrañables❤

Thank you so much for your passionate thoughts in your post. I too think this is a life changing piece of music.xx
Thank goodness for recordings
grande soprano grande tenore
What a glorious version of this superb duet. I adore Freni in this role (or any other role, she's marvelous). I am so grateful to youtube for having these magnificent moments that light up my life.
There is a fantastic chemistry betwin Freni and Pavarotti In every role they sing together! Here is no different!
due bellissime voci per una incantevole composizione.
Yes. Absolutely superb.
普契尼写了很多柔情又美好的爱情故事。觉得他很懂得女人的心。。赋予角色丰富的个人色彩。我也很喜欢蝴蝶夫人这部歌剧，也唱过晴朗的一天和二重唱。芙莱尼是我最喜欢的女高音。。深情，甜美
Bravissimi la Freni e Pavarotti😍🥰😘😻

@@markdrinkwater1508 just watched a video of one of her Performances in Paris. I agree she is very good. But Not like Freni. Almost....😊

@@markdrinkwater1508 thank you, I am looking forward to the day we can go back to the opera houses. I will most certainly try to see her😊
I was truly moved when I heard this. Just beauty from two of the best.
das ist Musik für die Ewigkeit
che coppia meravigliosa mi sento in estasi
Just Beautiful - Love them RIP
Hi manny
На 5-й фотографии с конца не Мирелла Френи, а Рената Скотто. Но это не беда, обе певицы просто класс! Mille grazie! Огромное спасибо!
Mirella Freni insuperabile! Pavarotti supremo!
My mom had albums of opera music eventually I got into it the older I got but it at times is soothing .
Da pelle d’oca! Li adoro! ❤️❤️
Maravillosa versión
Karajan ❤
Mirella always had a little girl look and was a super soprano. Luciano was among the best RIP
maravillosos..........................precioso.....................
Wunderschön!
Bellissimo!!bravi.bravi!!
Fantasticos! Únicos! Grandiosos!
She was a wonderfully beautiful soul
RIP MIRELLA!!! 😔
Incantevole!!!! Enchanting! Pavarotti is incomparable even though there are many great tenors. No one had his power. No one.
Corelli did and more power but never sang Pinky
@@gerontius3 Not in my humble opinion.
Freni - my favorite soprano for Butterfly. Soars.
Perfection.
MARAVILLOSOS
Maravilloso
Great !!!
Lindo, e o seu comentário é maravilhoso, obrigado.
When this duet took place?? This is so wonderful. Incredible...
Mirella Freni…la voce più bella della Butterfly…
Sublim!
我最爱的女高音

Wunderful
EXQUISITOS
Freni is absolutely perfect for this role. Pavarotti is sounding a little more pushed and heavy than usual, not his usual lyric self.

6:57 Renata Scotto
Did these two ever perform the opera, together or separately, on the stage?
They first performed publicly at La Scala in 1965 in a production of La Boheme. They were childhood friends!
Freni starred in the 1975 film Madama Butterfly opposite Plácido Domingo. This definitive 1974 with Freni is the only Pavarotti performance that I'm aware of.
@@Streisand70 They performed together in La Boheme 1989 at San Francisco Opera, and the performance is available on DVD.
Sorry there is no video of this. Pictures are distracting.
Looks like Scotto was in there by accident!
Please!!!
I prefer the version of Beniamino Gigli and Toti dal Monte.
Preferisco la versione di Beniamino Gigli e di Toti dal Monte.
6:45, Did Pavarotti crack? Ir is it just me?
Zero crack
@@esporadico73 yeah, maybe i Heard it wrong
La grabación es de baja calidad, pero no rompió Pavarotti en esta ocasión. En alguna otra si...
@@esporadico73 que bien, hablas español jajaja, preguntaba porque no lo escuchaba bien
Jajaja, soy catalán. Se puede encontrar algún crack en alguna grabación como anécdota, pero son pocas, y menos entre los 60 y los 80.
Sorry, I seem to be the exception, but it doesn't do it for me in the way Carreras and Scotto's version does.
I actually prefer the Bergonzi/Tebaldi recording.
Me too. No one can top those sounds produced by bergonzi/tebaldi. But I do admire freni and pav
@@voilosapete4731 Me three.
Incantevole!!!! Enchanting! Pavarotti is incomparable even though there are many great tenors. No one had his power. No one.
There were more powerful tenors than him.....no doubt.
