Simionato is the greatest Amneris I’ve ever heard, Nilsson is Nilsson, one of the greatest dramatic sopranos ever, this is just a marvelous 10 minutes of music
Just wonderful. This is opera as it should be sung. Technique combined with musical sensitivity and passion giving us the best we can hear from these great singers.
... Un duo spettacolare!!! Giulietta Simionato ed Birgit Nilsson favolose interpreti stellari del Belcanto passato!! Voci indimenticabili ed indimenticate del teatro lirico. Ascoltare La Simionato con un fraseggio perfetto ed il suo recitativo è impressionante!! Un grazie di cuore caro Lohengrin0 per questo regalo!! 👋👋👋👋👋Elsa.
@@NLidar..... Ave caro Nuri... forse bella come una tigre la Simionato non era!! Ma la sua grinta e personalità erano doti che le si confacevano e che sprigionavano in Lei tanta sicurezza e beltà!! La Nilsson è tutto un discorso a parte!! Potenza e voce meravigliosa dotata di una duttilità da togliere il respiro!! Doni di un tempo... doni lontani!! Verranno o si scopriranno un giorno tali personaggi! Aspettiamo fiduciosi.... ma questi tempi moderni non promettono un gran che di esaltante!! Una buona giornata e buon caldo ahahahah! Ave Nuri 🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋Elsa.
My father bought me this recording of Aida for my birthday when I was a kid I was used to Birgit Nilsson’s voice but later on this became my favorite recording Of Aida thanks Lohengrin O
Es interesante como la Nilsson manejaba su voz. Era diferente cuando hacía ópera italiana a cuando hacía ópera alemana. En Wagner ella se oye inmensa u hasta estridente. En Verdi y Puccini dulcifica su voz y no usa todo el caudal que tiene. Bellas voces ambas cantantes son admirables e irrepetibles.
Two polar opposites - Italian fire and Nordic ice - creating explosions. Specifically 3:14, 7:48 and 11:24 are the ones that caused the most pandemonium.
Simionato might not have been the most powerful mezzo but she possessed the perfect voice for Verdi. The best description for Nilsson here is to quote a famous critic from that era - “A great singer singing Verdi but not a great Verdi singer”.
Quizá no sea la más poderosa, ciertamente; Cossotto, por ejemplo, tenía una voz más densa y voluminosa; pero la variedad, la incisividad del canto de Simionato, siempre digno, majestuoso y elegante (Amneris es una princesa), su personalidad, la musicalidad y el talento para el fraseo, la variedad e imaginación, la facilidad en todos los registros, la hacen, en mi opinión, la más completa para este repertorio. Si comparamos esta parte, por ejemplo, con Azucena, nos podemos dar cuenta del asombroso conocimiento que tenía de la esencia verdiana. Aunque no era solo eso, claro, no podemos olvidar su Bolena, Hugonotes, Santuzza, Carmen...
At the risk of repeating myself, Simionato and the divine Dominguez owned this role utterly.....not a fan of Nilsson, great top though......thank you 😚 xxx
Ma è imbarazzante fare commenti.. è come essere difronte alla pietà di Michelangelo e la Cappella Sistina....Simionato insuperabile e Nilson una dea ... grazie ,solo grazie si può dire.Che i giovani non perdano questi riferimenti...
...χαμός... τα δωσε όλα η Νίλσον... γιαυτό όμως λίγο παρακάτω στην O patria mia, της σπα το κόντρα Ντο... σε αυτή ακριβώς την ηχογράφηση... αλλά οι Μιλανέζοι της το συγχωρούν, ούτε ένα boo… το στρες στο οποίο υποβάλει τη φωνή, το να τραγουδάς σαν τη Μαρία, έχει το κόστος του
Ασφαλώς κι έχει κόστος, αλλά η προσπάθεια αξίζει. Αυτό που δεν μπορεί να κατορθώσει η Σουηδή Νίλσον είναι να δώσει το χρώμα και το συναίσθημα τής Ελληνίδας Μαρίας. Άλλο παγόβουνο κι άλλο μεσογειακός ήλιος... Ακόμη ηχεί η φωνή τού φον Κάραγιαν "Περισσότερο συναίσθημα, κ. Νίλσον, περισσότερο συναίσθημα!" (Mehr Gefühl, Frau Nilsson, mehr Gefühl!).
@@aetion ... Αξίζει εάν έχεις ένα Μπαζούκας σαν τη Νίλσον μέσα στο λαιμό σου που δεν παθαίνει τίποτα... εάν έχεις ένα όργανο που πεθαίνει μέσα σε δύο χρόνια (Σουλιώτη) σαφώς δεν αξίζει.. σου δωσε η Φύση ένα Δώρο τρομερό και από τυφλή φιλοδοξία το κατέστρεψες σε δύο χρόνια... Η Κάλλας τραγουδούσε έτσι από 16 ετών και έχασε τη φωνή της στα 36... 20 ολόκληρα χρόνια... άλλη ιστορία... αλλά όταν κάτι εύθραυστες φωνές τραγουδούν έτσι από υπερφιλοδοξία... ας τραγουδάνε Handel όλη τους τη ζωή :D
Outstanding from both! I most say that Oralia is a better Amneris, for some reason Oralia’s voice is way bigger in the theater when we was in the zone doing the damn thang!! Simionato had more lyric qualities while Oralia was a real dramatic volcano. Nilsson is great her, so much weight and vibrancy!
Scala 1960s? Simionato, Rita Gorr and Oralia Dominguez are my Amneris holy trinity. Nilsson , although not a great Verdian singer (think Milanov, Callas, Leontyne, Tebaldi with some reservations ) does an excellent job here.

There are not singers like those now. What a great opera lesson is this.
My god this if wonderful. Ice and Fire, Gold and Silver.

@@elsaasta5164 Grazie cara Elsa, non c'è piacere più grande dell'alta arte dell'opera, vero? Soprattutto se cantato da italiani 😉 Buona giornata 🇮🇹☀️
@@NLidar... Thank you dear Nuri... Elsa
Plus, how goddarned exciting is Simionato's delivery of chest voice at 9:39?

Incredibili, travolgenti. E Giulietta Simionato è la mia preferita su tutte!
Singing that is truly alive!

En Verdi y Puccini dulcifica su voz y no usa todo el caudal que tiene. Bellas voces ambas cantantes son admirables e irrepetibles.
Deux divas hors normes !
Aïda et Amneris. Sublime
Just WOW! This is epic opera.
Two polar opposites - Italian fire and Nordic ice - creating explosions. Specifically 3:14, 7:48 and 11:24 are the ones that caused the most pandemonium.

Goddesses of singing!
Dive entrambe!!

A music critic from the 60's summed up Nilsson perfectly, a great singer singing Verdi but not a great Verdi singer.

Bellísimo, creía que era el dúo del segundo acto. Quién es el tenor??????
@Alberto Negron El tenor debe ser Pier Miranda Ferraro en una representación del año 1960 en el Teatro alla Scala. El director es Nino Sanzogno.
Jose Latorre muchas gracias don José. Valiosa información, muchas gracias 😊
@@mstreepnegron Me sobra el "don"😁

Who is the Radames here?
Pier Miranda Ferraro.
As great as Simionato was, she couldn't top Bumbry in this role.
