Oggi si preferiscono i maneskin o come so chiamano. Tristezza infinita per la cultura, l'arte, l'opera le voci indimenticabili e tutto il sacrificio che c'è dietro
Gent.ma sig.ra, non siamo rimasti in pochi ad apprezzare la bella musica. Siamo tantissimi. Glielo assicuro, anche perché il nostro melodramma è il più ascoltato nel mondo. Così come sono tanti i canali social dove è possibile ascoltare la lirica ed esprimere il proprio "like".
Educated and culturally astute audience who know this opera. They have the respect and awareness to wait till the final note before expressing their appreciation of a magnificent performance.
I attended the season finale concert for the Orange County Philharmonic Society just a few months ago, and it featured as the final piece a performance of Tchaikovsky’s magisterial 5th Symphony! You know the rest, the breath the orchestra takes in the 4th movement before launching into the coda? The audience started to clap thinking it was over. I mean, goodness gracious🤦🏻♂️ It’s Tchaikovsky! How do you not know Tchaikovsky??? I was already pissed off that they were clapping in between movements (I know it was fashionable in Beethoven’s time to do this, but I prefer silence as is done today), but when they did this, it just destroyed the vibe for me🤦🏻♂️
@@Tennisisreallyfun I feel your pain. We happy few who appreciate the “finer” things in life need to live among the masses of musically/culturally illiterate that wouldn’t know the difference between a symphony and a sonata or a coda from a cadenza. But then again, I couldn’t name a Taylor Swift song, so whatever rattles your can.
There is/was no one better than Luciano when he was young. Not even the magnificent Mirella Freni. These two are so fabulous (together and on their own). So wonderful to listen to, but so painful to listen to such magnificent talent that has been lost.
Interesting you say "when he was young". This is one of the first songs I heard when he was younger. I was never a great fan of his. Oh, technically, he was the best, no one could touch him, but "heart" I never heard from him. I guess I was spoiled by Giuseppe diStefano😃
О боже ,какая красота ,какой тон...! Вот "под рукой..."Нетребко Виланзон...Ну, люди - слышите эту разницу , эту технику ,этот тон ,дикцию ,этот итальянский аромат ?! Отдал бы всё за присутствие на этом концерте !!
The best performance of these arias in the last half of the 20th Century. The range of dynamics is unbelievable. They were made for this. Extremely gorgeous.
Господи, как прекрасно!!! Много раз переслушал-пересмотрел, и не перестаю это делать....Великие Певцы, Великий (даже, скорее, ВЕЛИЧАЙШИЙ) Оперный Дирижер, Гениальная Музыка Пуччини... Мирелла, Лучиано, Нелло, навсегда в моем сердце!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sensational performance...and so few others. they sang it in key. That was a true high C they ended the duet with, as written, and a brilliant high C at that.
"high C [...] as written". Not in my score, which is the piano+vocal score: there's no copyright date, but I must have bought it in the 1970s. It was published by Ricordi. I'd be delighted to learn where you got your information: not all publishers of music got it right. In the Ricordi, the soprano and tenor get to (optionally) finish at her A and his F. The main line has Rodolfo dropping to E and Mimi rising to C. Both pp perdendosi. No willy-waving "bang it out loud" C for the tenor or, indeed, for the soprano. Also in that score, the tenor's C in Che gelida manina is optional and the (perhaps) original makes a better melody. Not so many bragging rights for the tenor, maybe. Perhaps Puccini was having trouble finding tenors with the right tessitura to sing the high notes. It is, however, odd that the high versions are the optional ones and not the main lines. I might be entirely misinterpreting the score and would be delighted to be put straight on it.
@@davidgould9431 I can't comment on the specific details you quote, but I do know that Puccini suffers badly, worse than most composers, from unauthorised modifications to his music. I am reasonably certain that Ricordi was the original publisher of all his operas, so trusting their score is a reasonably safe bet. Late in his career Alexander Gibson conducted a series of Puccini operas with Scottish Opera. He insisted that all markings be removed from the orchestral parts before he started rehearsal, and the players were startled and thrilled at how much better the composer's version of the score sounded. I have heard similar stories from the Royal Opera House.
Two of the very best pupils of the great Ettore Campogalliani, 1903-1992. With them bel canto has survived into our time. A lovely document of fabulous singing.
Ya no existe tal disciplina como la de aquellos grandes artistas de la ópera.. transmiten cada frase con el alma entera que te estremece el cuerpo y te llena de emociones... bravo
There were brother and sister singing together since kids, they have been changed the sort of the voice and Opera. Both borned in Modena in 1935. Absolutely beautiful
Luciano en su plena juventud hace al final un do sostenido con su voz portentosa. Mirella Freni, si no la mejor, la mas afinada de las sopranos que he oido. En una grabacion de Don Carlos de Verdi, en tres horas no pude conseguirle error alguno, esto no es todo, tenia una capacidad expresiva extraordinaria.
Gracias por compartir y regalarnos felicidad escuchando a estos extraordinarios cantantes que deberían ser recordados por emocionarnos y traer paz y serenidad a nuestras vidas. Enhorabuena por esta gran iniciativa
I’ve never seen Pavarotti so young and so handsome. I was fortunate to see him in person at Madison Square Garden and at the Garden States Art Center (as it was called then) in the seventies. Fantastic performer. 😮 All the Italians from New Jersey were there in full force. Puccini was my first introduction to Opera when I was six. I have had a long-standing love affair with opera since then. Now today with the Metropolitan simulcasts and opera on demand opera is affordable for all.
Thanks so much for posting this rare gem from 1965, Mirella Freni and Luciano Pavarotti in such great form, brilliant orchestral sound too under the baton of Nello Santi. I think this is the earliest Pavarotti clip I have ever seen. He was 29 at this point, so handsome. Mirella Freni is amazing. Am I right in thinking that the two grew up together in Modena ? Or am I thinking of someone else ? This is stellar singing. What a time to be alive for the audiences back then, when the importance of this great music was truly understood. I so wish I had heard these two live. Pavarotti is my all time favourite tenor, a voice that is as warm as Italian sunshine on a field of sunflowers. I think Mirella Freni passed away just recently in 2023. Magical music.
That age lasted until well into his sixties; unfortunately it took him several years to realise that it was time to stop. There is a saying in the world of opera that it takes ten years to be found out, so perhaps he was ahead of the game.
l'Emilia Romagna non ha soltanto visto nascere artisti della musica classica e lirica, ma anche voci che fanno parte della tradizione della canzone leggera, come Milva e Mina. Mirella Freni è stata la Mimi' di riferimento per le interpreti successive: una artista esemplare. Grande
Yes Pavarotti is young and so dashing, but Freni is gorgeous and they both sing so incredibly! This is the first opera I heard in person as a 16 year old, although I had been listening with my father to the Saturday Afternoon performances from the Met since I was a child. I still am emotionally moved by the passion and the perfection of Puccini's masterpiece, as well as this performance which is as close as I feel we will ever get to heaven, until that day comes. And they are so sweet together!
HI!! WOW LUCIANO IS SO YOUNG AND HANDSOME WITH NO BEARD AND SINGS PURE GOLDEN. THE WOMAN IS A GREAT SINGER AS WELL. THANKS AND STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY ❤️ 🙏
Luciano e Mirella, the greatest . Saw them both in operas here in the US and in Italy( Milano La Scala), . Unforgettable performances , that to this day, move my heart and soul. Bravi Bravi , indeed! ❤❤❤❤
Quant'è bella giovinezza che s'en fugge tuttavia, del doman non v'è certezza chi vuol esser lieto sia....Sono stati giovani e belli anche loro, tutti e due qui avevano trent'anni.
La vita di questi artisti è legata dalla nascita. Coetanei, entrambi figli di operaie della manifattura tabacchi di Modena , sono stati allattati dalla stessa balia della fabbrica. Erano fratelli di latte, sembra una leggenda invece è parte del grande destino di questi due meravigliosi artisti.
Grazie della condivisione. Che coincidenza!!! Ma,lo è??? sembrerebbe impossibile,,non credo nelle coincidenze,,da lassù li hanno fatti Rincontrare,,,,,
Always loved this recording. Pavarotti and Freni together, they had true vocal chemistry, the double High C at the end rings so perfectly, though that isn’t even the highlight for me. Freni’s Mimi is my favorite overall interpretation. Her perfect support of even the most quiet moments is unmatched. ❤💙
In 1965, I was in my last year of high school. Though I listened to some arias in Italian operas, I didn't know any Italian words. Now I knew enough Italian to understand most of Puccini's operas (and others). Watching this aria and the great love duet put a lot of emotions in me. I have a CD set of this opera sung by these same great opera singers recorded in the 70s with the BPO conducted by von Karajan and keep listening to them.
Me too, just finishing high school. Was brought up listening to to the Saturday afternoon broadcast from the Metropolitan Opera on the radio. Never liked Karajan, though.
What an absolute treat...in passing I would comment on the resemblance between looks of pavarotti at this age with Scottie the engineer on the starship Enterprise.
Simply exquisite.
And Pavarotti’s final note seemed almost effortless. He looks so young.
What a treasure this clip is. Thank you for sharing it. ❤️
He was 29.

Pavarotti's technique was exceptionally good - something which few critics ever commented on.

They are not in this world, but the art they left behind is eternal.
He was handsome back then too. But voice, his voice is so natural, powerful.

Sadly gone but their soul, their voice lives on.
Thank you for reminding me of the wonderful Mirella Freni. Such an exquisite voice.
As a lowly hotel employee I met Mirella Freni many times. She was a truly modest and charming lady (and adored her grandchildren).
Agreed. This takes me back decades.
Too much soprano vibrato for me but Pavarotti was perfection
Ich fühle mich überflutet von Schönheit, von Dankbarkeit, dass diese Momente absoluter Schönheit dokumentiert werden konnten. GRAZIE!❤

The two right now singing in heaven.!😏
Grazie d'avverci lasciato questo reale regalo....pace pace a voi.
Mirella and Luciano, two graeat friends and two outstanding singers
Brother and sister..
They were both breast fed by the same woman.
They were born next to each other and were friends ever since.
Si la perfección existe , este es un ejemplo inolvidable . Gracias eternas a estos artistas .
Wow!
What a natural gift they both share. The music flows unforced and beautifully. Thank you for sharing this rare moment in history with us.
Pavarotti was just 29 years old ! The quality of recordings at that time hardly makes justice to his perfect voice at this time.
Young Pav. So young, so handsome, so unaffected. Glorious.
The best performance of these arias in the last half of the 20th Century. The range of dynamics is unbelievable. They were made for this. Extremely gorgeous.

Паваротти ещё и красавец какой был в молодости и голос свежий, впервые вижу и слышу его такого. ❤

Nothing makes you feel closer to the Creator than beautiful music which moves your soul.
Dos estrallas del belcanto nos encantan per siempre .
