So good to hear Sutherland singing more Puccini.... Many said she was not italianata in style. Here she fits right in, sounds very Italianate. Also, what great music in this last scene. Some of my favorite Puccini.
It’s July of 2024 and I’ve just seen Il Trittico at the Sydney opera house. Wonderful to imagine an audience in the same auditorium 47 years earlier hearing this ❤
La voce di Joan Sutherland è uno spettacolo della Natura: ascoltandola, si ha la sensazione di poter girare su se stessi a trecentosessanta gradi, continuamente e vorticosamente, in vista di miliardi di splendidi paesaggi! Nella sua estensione e coloratura, vi sono miliardi di sfumature di colori. È una voce che esprime un profondo senso di intimità e di profondo amore per la musica. È una voce davvero speciale: come di una mamma affettuosa e perennemente presente! È difficile scrivere altro, ascoltando nel frattempo questo assoluto capolavoro Pucciniano: mi prende inesorabilmente una grande commozione...
She was really wonderful in her later roles - Angelica, Carmelites, Adriana - but the public wanted to hear the pyrotechnics and high notes. She still had her bel canto capabilities up to the end, as I can say firsthand when in saw her in 1987-88 in Puritani and Trovatore.
su voz y su forma de impostarla siempre sera sublime e impresionante......de una belleza especial...........la perfeccion ni se pone en duda por un segundo.........su nota sale del corazon total...............
Broadcasts were done at huge expense by ABC TV not the opera company. That year they broadcast her in the new Borgia production. This particular performance was oddly coupled with a very weak production of Pagliacci. I believe they broadcast the complete performance on ABC radio.
I agree. I think I've heard them all. Bonynge did a super job. I'll only say that the Mazel "Suor" has Marilyn Horne. Horne trumps the German Ludwig any day.
This performance is far more dramatic than her recording. Her voice was powerful, easily overpowering the orchestra and chorus. It's a shame she didn't record more Puccini. I understand that at the end, many were upset that she committed suicide and that her vision was the hallucinogens of the poison. Others say it was divine intervention. I
The unrivalled vocal brilliance in bel canto which was Joan Sutherland's unique gift had sadly declined by the mid 70's, but this role suits her admirably in her mature years.
Bullshit. I heard her live in concert in 1979 and she sang with an incomparable blend of beauty, opulence and virtuosity. You could hear the audience not breathing she was so magnificent. And her 1980 LUCRETIA from Covent Garden, not to mention her Live From Lincoln Center outings with Horne and Pavarotti, stand as some of the most spectacular evenings of her entire career.
Macho Voce, you are spot on.........Did her voice change as she got older? Of course it did, but Cameronpaul comment of sadly declined probably was due to his sadly declining hearing, sure wasn't in her signing.
cameronpaul Rubbish! I saw her onstage in New York in the later-1980s in Puritani and Trovatore. She still had all her vocal powers, even if it was produced with more effort.
I agree with the other replies here. I saw her in Anna Bol0ena at the Chicago Lyric in 1986. She was spectacular although her sound was not as scintilllatingly silver in the coloratura, the dramatic qualities she brought to Bolena were better in the service of the role and she still had the power to ride over both orchestra and ensemble in the most dramatic scenes of confrontation.
What kind of performance was this? Was it a staged "Trittico"? or a concert? Regardless, it's magnificent. Thank you for uploading it. Would love to hear more.
hey Roadfrog99, it wasn't a full Trittico - the opera company did Pagliacci and Suor Angelica as a double bill. Strange pairing but as you can hear, Angelica was worth waiting for!
No sólo Stupenda...¡Espléndida, fabulosa, inmejorable!👌🏻❤️🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Joan was unbelievable. The beauty, power and emotion bring me to tears.
RIP... We all miss you. Not just because of your great voice, but who you were.
Indeed.
Sutherland may have been a perfect mimì, or butterfly, why not? I can just imagine that high D of "ancor un passo or via" with that sweet voice
WOW. I've heard Sutherland many times but this is the most "moving" performance I've heard.
I can agree

THRILLING AND EMOTIONALLY TOUCHING

Thanks endless, dear Cristian, for your comment👍!
Ever great 🎼 in our everyday life!
Hi 🤗!
This was posted on her 85th birthday.
Simply divine to listen to. Thank you, Dame Joan, for all the joy you continue to bring.
She was really wonderful in her later roles - Angelica, Carmelites, Adriana - but the public wanted to hear the pyrotechnics and high notes. She still had her bel canto capabilities up to the end, as I can say firsthand when in saw her in 1987-88 in Puritani and Trovatore.
Love this performance.
Wonderful performance, sent shivers down my spine only with the sheer power and emotion of her voice .Can you please upload the complete opera?

What a precious recording. My forever la Santa Stupenda!!
i know it is kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good website to stream new tv shows online?
@Nicholas Brock i would suggest flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
Happy Birthday Dame J~! BRAVA~!
The tragedy is that the Australian Opera didn't choose to video one of the four performances which are the only ones she ever gave on stage.
It's unbelievable they did not flim Joan in this unusual, (for her)and beautiful role. Shame indeed.

pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee upload it all
Yes please (if you can upload the entire opera)!!!🙏🏻❤️
I didn't know Jonathon Winters sang opera -- and opposite Joanie, no less! ;)
Would have loved to seen her in this.
SHE WAS NOT 85!!!!!!!!!!
AMsamification would have turned 85.
Michele 81 - it says Joan "at 81".
The title just just wrong and misleading.
The unrivalled vocal brilliance in bel canto which was Joan Sutherland's unique gift had sadly declined by the mid 70's, but this role suits her admirably in her mature years.

@vocalissimo1 Indeed! Would said person please stand forward with a few extra copies! ;-)

She loved this role but only sang it a handful of times in Sydney. Shame.
Sutherland at 85? 85 what? She died at 84!
1985...
I believe the title is meant to honor Joan's 85th birthday, rather congratulate her on reaching that date.
She was born in 1926 she was dead at ,83.. so I would have loved to hear her sing this from the grave
a sydney forse andava bene...........
musica tiranna55...a Sydney? a noi c'e' toccata la Dessi..la Nizza...Frittoli...altrove pure non mi pare...ma andiamo...non siamo ridicoli.
