  • Imogene is, IMO, one of Callas's great roles, up there with Norma, Violetta and Medea. By the time she did this 1959 recording -- live in concert -- her voice could no longer do justice to the more stratospheric regions of the role. But the intensity and commitment of her performance are evident, as is her understanding of the desperation and madness in Bellini's creation.
    Donizetti is said to have been affected by Bellini's treatment of madness in his composition of another bel canto masterpiece, Lucia di Lammermoor; but whereas Lucia's madness haunts us with the crepuscular virtuosity of the mad scene, Imogene's grips us by the throat. There is no greater manipulator of the voice than Bellini, and no better exponent of Bellini's music than Maria Callas.
    Her visualization of the entire situation through the long introduction (not shown here) is a lesson all actors should be made to watch. Its extraordinary.
    IL PIRATA (The Pirate) is an opera in two acts by Vincenzo Bellini to an Italian libretto by Felice Romani. It premiered at La Scala on October 27, 1827.
    Sicily. 13th century. Final scene. Gualtiero has killed Ernesto, Duke of Caldora. He gives himself up to justice, and prays that Imogene may forgive him. She appears in a state of anguish and sees visions of her dead husband and her son ("Col sorriso d'innocenza"). Meanwhile, the Council of Knights has condemned Gualtiero to death...

    I clearly remember seeing this clip by chance on TV long ago, and back then I already thought "God, how one is absolutely mesmerized by her glance, her tiniest move or change of expression throughout this gorgeous piece !" And she doesn't sing a single note here !!! She really was a magnetic force onstage AND an exceptional musician... I love the way she said to Lord Harewood once "If you want to know how to act a part, all you have to do is... LISTEN TO THE MUSIC." And, as on many other occasions, she fully proves it here !

    “An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down. It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I've left the opera house.” - Maria Callas

    La Callas aveva lavorato con Visconti, Pasolini, Zeffirelli ecc certamente questi registi ( penso soprattutto Visconti) l' hanno plasmata anche come attrice.
    un'espressivita' che in pochi gesti definisce subito il clima musicale e le emozioni del personaggio senza gigionerie alcune. Lectio magistralis da far studiare d'obbligo. Sublime.

    « Sorgete ! » the first word she sings. And everything is there. She sounds like a giant !
    She WAS Imogene even more than she was Norma.
    When people talk about Callas, it’s always about her Traviata, Norma, Tosca... Of course she is the best ever Violetta, the best ever Norma, the best ever Tosca, she is actually the best ever in all the roles she portrayed. Unmatched.
    But Imogene is different. She is not only the best ever Imogene. She is the incarnation of Imogene. Not only by her voice and the way she sings the role.
    To me, Imogene is Callas and Callas is Imogene.

    Maria Callas è più di ogni altra cantante un fenomeno di interpretazione. Imparagonabile alle pur bravissime Signore del Belcanto e dei coccodè.
    L’intensità dello sguardo, sempre proteso alla ricerca di una costruzione dei rapporti dialogici e l’attenzione estrema dell’uso del corpo e delle mani, ci fa pensare come la moderna teoria delle scuole di palcoscenico sia a tutt’oggi molto carente e superficiale.
    Pochissime si sono avvicinate alla Divina, (quando scrivo “avvicinate” significa che hanno studiato il personaggio da interpretare con estremo scrupolo non solo dal punto di vista vocale ma anche come recitazione ).

    QUE GRAN CANTANTE Y MUCHO MEJOR ACTRIZ!!! Hoy en día ya ninguna CANTANTE interpreta las partes instrumentales, sólo se preocupan en cantar notas sobre-agudas, y nada más, artistas eran las cantante del siglo XX...

    Notice she didn't sing a note in these 2 minutes. But, then, she did. No one since has been able to sing through their bodies quite in this way. There have been lots of imitators but they remain poor country cousins at best, relatively.

    December 2, 1923 - September 16, 1977
    She became reclusive in her last year and died at her Paris apartment without receiving medical attention at age 53 from a heart attack (Sept. 16, 1977). She was cremated and her remains kept in a niche at the cemetery of Pere Lachaise until the spring of 1979 when the urn was taken by plane and scattered over the Aegean Sea off the coast of Greece. A niche plaque was placed as a memorial by the cemetery while indicating the now empty space was the initial resting place for the urn containing the ashes of Maria Callas.

    I don’t agree! Callas was in the best shape the night the Pirata recording of the concert form was done...
    Ofcourse a year earlier with Corelli she may have had even more control over her high notes, but she must have gained more insight in the mean time. Her fast glorious fioriture passages are out of this world. Nobody even comes close to her in this role. Maybe in others but this one is hers from beginning to end

      mario jimenez yes, I know, it is a well known fact, clearly visible during her Lady MacBeth aria ( and not only). I was referring to the full Pirata recording from Carnegie Hall versus how she may have sounded in the 58 Scala interpretation
