Arthur de Silva: Yes this was truly a spectacular performance at the MET 1972 during a special Verdi festival. The Duke was Luciano Pavarotti and Marti Talvela was Sparafucile with Bonynge conducting. Unfotunately, there is no video of this performance. A studio recording on Decca-London is still available in CD format. From 1960 to 1980 was another Golden Age at the MET with iconic singers like Tucker, Corelli, Price, Nilsson, Domingo, Carreras and Merrill to name a few.
A recording of Rigoletto with Callas, Gobbi and di Stefano was my first opera recording, EMI ,cica 1964.I played this dudetto over and over again.Sutherlands Lucia at Covent Garden 1973 made me obsessed with her and her voice.I loved her as Lucrecia , Norma , Elvira and Anna B. Caballe also became a favorite of mine as Semiramide and in reciatal with orchesta. First prima donna was Nilsson in many roles live in Stockholm.
Aren't we the most lucky recipients of such phenomenal talent?! All of these immeasurably talented voices and artists for us to enjoy. Their gift, along with Verdi, should be well guarded and well shared.
If a duetto doesn't excite an audience (as here) enough to applaud over the concluding chords of the stretto---why bother? What a final E-flat! The picture is to-die-for. Sutherland + Milnes + Verdi = Divine. Those were great days....
Sutherland, Pavarotti, Milnes. Rigoletto. That's nothing like that at the Met now. I agree with the poster on the PURITANI vid that the Met should just be turned into a movie theatre. It's an embarrassment to the tradition and history of opera now.
You may get your wish that the Met is nearing its end. If you go to the DJS forum, you'll find an article regarding the financial problems it's having. And remember the New York City Opera went out of business in 2010... Netrebko is filling up stadiums right now. And so has Meade. They are going the Pavarotti route to attract as big a crowd as possible before their voice is history. Did you know that Netrebko just use her lyric voice to sing a "triumphant" Macbeth in Munich. She looked ridiculous wearing a orange wig. Macho, we HAVE to find a way to PM each other. It seems my YT mail is not receiving mail. I can send them, but can't receive them. Matey and Anne are having the same problem. I may just get a yahoo email and use that to pm my opera friends. Meanwhile, just use the replies in videos to comment to each other. Matey just posted DJS's last E flat she ever sang from an outdoor concert, 1986. You MUST hear it. She also posted a Boston Bel Raggio that's may be her best. Then a post of the entire wonderful 1966 Paris Concert which is one of my favorites And also this entire Rigoletto complete, opening night 1972.
diana ventura DV - I see you've got a pulse on the "underside" of the big grist mill. Good for you. Sorry about the message problems with YT. A real pain. Who is Matey? Have a channel?
I guess we can talk to each other on Matey's newest post. He just posted the entire 1972 Live Rigoletto on the DJS website...ho there to see the post of rigoletto to link to his videoHe figured a way to pm me so we've been talking for a while. Matey is the biggest poster of Sutherland's Live videos on the DJS site. He posted 3 Esclarmondes, the Live 1987 Trovatore plus many others. Go to the DJS site and see the complete 1972 Rigoletto with Sutherland/Pavarotti/Milnes singing not one sour note in the entire performance. The way it was tapes give super dynmatics to the size of their voices. Sutherland's Caro Nome was sublime. You've got to check it out. If you figure out how to pm me, we can communicate that way. Netrebko's fans are not as annoying as Gruberova's fans. They are constantly on coloraturafan's videos saying she's the greatest coloratura of all time. And as you know, I rarely confront anyone. So I have to bite my tongue reading their ridiculous remarks that Gruberova at 68 is better than Sutherland at 33. And they actually think Gruberova has the vocal weigh to sing Norma better than Sutherland!!!
Dear Macho...just type the following on YT's search bar to get to Matey's newest post. This is a stunning Rigoletto of Sutherland/Pavarotti/Milnes Rigoletto: "OPENING NIGHT! Sutherland, Pavarotti, & Milnes in Rigoletto"
diana ventura Wow Diana I would like to hear some of those recording you mention here. And YES Netrabko is ridiculous. She got plump and started pushing the middle voice and the very idea of her trying to sing Donna Macbetto is a desperate one. I saw her in the rehearsal for Anna Bolena and the voice whilst dark was a bit lyric al la Freni. No more . No less. But these days in Opera at the MET Battle would be singing Lucia and June Anderson Tosca. It truly is absurd really. But its all in the training most simply want a fast in and get out of the biz..
@@TheRegulated I was at the final dress for this run (this is the first of the four Sutherland Met Gildas). She made the same mistake at the dress rehearsal! And if you listen carefully to the studio recording from 1971, she STARTS to do the same thing but catches herself (the "Per-" of the word "Perdonate!" is too high, this octave jump taking her to a high Cb, instead of an Ab). Thankfully, she corrected it by the next performance on June 14, 1972).
I usually like Bonynge`s conducting because he has done some great performances on record but here he is absolutely appalling sounding like a compete amateur.
Tibor Dr. Szabados: You need to get your hearing checked. Find a good doctor. One better than you! Milnes is excellent and so is their complete recording although both Gobbi and Taddei are very good on their recordings.
I was there. One of the greatest nights ever. Back when the Me did a June festival.
Sutherland bravisima!!!!! Milnes excelente!!!!!

Great singing, of course, and conducted to maximise applause (nttatwwt).
No voices today even come close! Divine!

What a final E-flat! The picture is to-die-for. Sutherland + Milnes + Verdi = Divine. Those were great days....
They blended well together
Stunning singing.
Love the two of them together.
Extraordinary! Perfection! Wonderful recording and remastering.
merveilleux un pur moment de félicité
I was at that performance, Pavarotti sang The Duke
Brilliant duet! 👏
"There is only One God, and One Joan Sutherland!"
there are quite a few divinities (some active "gods", many historical oners) but there was, and will always be, only one Joan Sutherland
There are no gods. However, there is only one Joan Sutherland.
amazing
Two mega voices - where are their like today?
Milnes = divine. Milnes was one of the few baritones that absolutely held his own in vocal and personal charisma w JS---which says everythng.
Milnes is...But do you know he thinks Sutherland had the most phenomenal voice he has ever heard?
@Barone Vitellio Scarpia Not to mention Taddei’s recording.
@Barone Vitellio Scarpia Indeed!
We have this studio recording on 2 cd’s. Decca I believe. Great.
STRAORDINARI!!!INCREDIBILI!!!
The most exciting moment from “Rigoletto” yet it is not featured on any highlights recording so you must buy the complete opera.
Sutherland Greatest of them all.
Lotta tra due GIGANTI di Bravura!!!!!
braviiiiiiii
Milnes is one of the best baritones of this century.
Magnificent singing. Haven't heard anything at the Met like this in over 30 years. The Met seems to like Tweety Birds in the role these days.
th-cam.com/video/a07-7XtfTnI/w-d-xo.html
No other soprano/baritone couple has ever sung this more brilliantly.
Suth Pav listen Gobbi-Pagliughi....
You ever heard Maria Callas and Tito Gobbi, they surpass this.
Ivan, Sutherland/milnes has more squillo.
@@IvanHernandez-gx4rt never
That's your personal opinion.
I attended one of those June festival performances
FANTASTISCH !

Grande Milnes
2:00
What was that weird thing Joan did at 1:37? Lol.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed. She seemed so eager to go up high that she forgot the actual melody was lower.
I remember her final curtain call. She took off the man's hat and bowed like a man. We went wild. 45 years ago!

@@richardholmesmusic2128 Your thoughtfulness, expertise and personal history are wonderful for me to read and absorb!
I don't think it was an accident. It seemed to be done for dramatic effect. I liked it.
Callas and Gobbi in Rigoletto hard to beat.
I usually like Bonynge`s conducting because he has done some great performances on record but here he is absolutely appalling sounding like a compete amateur.
Milnes erreicht nicht in dieser Duette die sängerische Qualitæt von Tito Gobbi und Leo Nucci.
Tibor Dr. Szabados: You need to get your hearing checked. Find a good doctor. One better than you! Milnes is excellent and so is their complete recording although both Gobbi and Taddei are very good on their recordings.
