- A Singers' Roundtable: Joan Sutherland, Marilyn Horne & Martina Arroyo (18th April, 1970)
Host: Edward Downes
Aired during the Metropolitan Opera's matinée broadcast of Roméo et Juliette.
THANKS to Nick King for supplying the audio.
Three great ladies, 3 great voices..and great humour !
Marilyn Horne has the best laugh 😂
Marilyn is Amazing...ha ha ha!!!! That laugh is KILLING!!!!! :D
Thank you. This is brilliant! Arroyo is hilarious.
THANK YOU for this. Finally on TH-cam. This is one of the (if not the) most hilarious interviews I have ever heard. Martina Arroyo is a genius.
The funniest opera flub of all time!!!!
I think that Joan was probably born with the trill and certainly she had a flair for the coloratura so think her voice had very specific characteristics that were advantageous to moving the voice quickly! This was such a wonderful panel and interview. Hilarious and I had no idea Martina was so funny. I did know of Marilyn’s sense of humor and my, she loves to laugh.....such a great laugh! Thanks for posting....loved it! Such great singers!
Wounderful singers.Heard them,loved them.Great divas.Miss Arroyo is very nice person.Sutherland perhaps the greatest dramatic coloratura of all time.Arroyo underestemated.
Arroyo had a good voice but really it was monochromatic with nothing terribly unique about it.
@@orion8835 ::
It's kinda hard to believe that she performed the role of Turandot !
@@orion8835 Maybe, but she had by far the best technique of the three.
@@cliffgaither it's not surpising... she started out as a Spinto Sopano and matured towards the Dramatic fach territory- not a full dramatic, but a light dramatic soprano however
@@baritoneblazzin1965 :: I've never really followed her career and progression, but Turandot ! That's an extreme ! It's all the more amazing. Thank you for the history !
Thanks for finding this priceless Madam Butterball recording.
I miss Edward Downes! great voice ! EXUDES erudition without being pompous. A gentleman
Just love these discussions!!
I remember this round table very very well a lot of fun and informative!!
I love this and Horne’s laugh kills me!!!
“my husband is accommodating me splendidly.”
Lucky me! I saw each one of these stars several times onstage, never together though. They were each extraordinary in their chosen repertoire.
Any favourite roles of each or any performances that stand out?
MrQwerty88 Of course! I saw Miss Arroyo as a fantastic Aida and Leonora (Trovatore); Miss Horne as Rinaldo and Arsace; Dame Joan as Lucia, Elvira (Puritani), off the top of my head. I keep a list on my computer, so I’m sure there are many more.
I saw Sutherland twice and Horne once in rehearsal.
Arroyo appeared frequently on the Tonight Show and displayed a sense of humor..
Excellent conversation.
What a great post! Horne's laugh at "Madame Butterball" had my giggling! lol.
I love Joanie's ear-rings in this photograph. Martina is fun. I need to hear more of her singing. I believe she sang in Joanie's Huguenots, but I don't have it yet.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Martina Arroyo!!!!!! She’s funny, talented, and spectacular!
Priceless thank you!
The Met, Paris, London I was fortunate enough have seem them all live and all where incredible, Sutherland I met in person in 1971 a wonderful person!
Best interview ever ! Martina is hilarious !
This is just wonderful. But Martina Arroyo is just a scream. Horne's genuine gut busting belly laugh at the "Madame Butterball" line is hysterical. God bless these three and Martina's wicked sense of humor.
I loved that!
these women are killing me!!
😂😂😂, I love this! Thank you for the upload!
19:25 ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahaha and 19:44 OMG! 4:27 Madame Butterball ahahahahahahahahahahah 10:12 Brava! ahahahahahahahhaha BRILLIANT
The BEST!
13:50
Madam Butterbull ...oh gosh hilarious 😂😂😂😂
Madame Butterball !!!!!
kathryn ryder 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Very interesting that Sutherland says she was born with a trill.
I was too. Even when I was 13-15 I remember that it was just something that I'd just do. Then I heard people doing it in opera
@@MrQwerty88 same with me
Now wait a minute-- the story Arroyo tells about the prompter around 9:00..... I have heard Horne tell that EXACT same story, as having happened to herself.
It will take me a while to find video of the interview, but this New York Times article attributes the story to Horne. www.nytimes.com/1975/08/31/archives/an-operatic-performance-is-always-one-beat-away-from-chaos-always.html
Oh wow. Well spotted. I'm curious what happened.
@@bassbarelytone410 The time simply got confused! Obviously the story happened to Ms Arroyo!
I think I have heard yet another singer relate it!
@@minkoss I myself heard Horne tell this story about herself.
SAW ALL THREE. But not together of course.
Madame Butterball
Every person îs unique și îs a singer. They cannot be compared to one another .
Without comparison, the operatic artform and technique would never have developed.
Being able to make comparisons are absolutely necessary for a singer.
Люблю всех. Мартіни не знаю.
Hilarious !
I find Arroyo funny at first, then it becomes tiring and I think there some partly faked laughs
Rude.
Hardly! I was in List Hall at the taping. Totally spontaneous.
@@direfranchement Yes I think she is rude
@@richardholmesmusic2128 I mean fake laughs from her fellow interviewees
@@MrQwerty88 and I’m saying that all three ladies were laughing quite spontaneously that day. You’re entitled to think Arroyo was rude, but literally nobody I’ve ever spoken to since that day has ever thought so. The ladies all had a fantastic time. I think the “fakeness”. and “rudeness” may.be your own reaction.
