Yes! The vocal delivery has to fit the part. Amneris is royalty, daughter of a King, with innate refinement and prestige. You cannot sing this role wildly. It needs legato, rich seams of colour and control worthy of a princess. It's the same principle that you can't sing Anna Bolena, Elisabetta in Don Carlo, or even Norma 'roughly'. But not singing them roughly does not mean singing them like a zombie. Like Callas said it has to have LIFE!

I would actually agree with Callas' remarks also by taking a good look at her prime career. She seldom applied verismo-like declamations and rough, almost parlando style of singing even in veristic or very late romantic roles like Santuzza, Gioconda or Turandot. Compared to other contemporaries and above all to the previous generation of the Golden Age of verismo singing, Callas noticeably sounds more contrived, "beautiful" and even than the verismo interpreters of similar roles. So I think she may have used rough and forceful phrases here and there, but the basis of her singing, even in dramatic non-Bel Canto roles, was always firmly set upon a Bel Canto training and relative "self-control", not letting beauty go away completely.
@Shahrdad7 жыл бұрын
She sang Santuzza as if it were bel canto, never distorting the music for "effects" but completely sounding like a desperate knocked-up Sicilian peasant. Once back in the 1980's, I had Callas's Cavalleria playing in the car (starting from Voi lo sapete and on to the duet with Turiddu), and one of my friends who knew nothing about opera was riding with me. After listening for a few minutes, she said, "She sounds so common. It's like she's a peasant or something." I don't know what else one can ask of an interpreter.
@danawinsor13806 жыл бұрын

I guess Callas didn´t like to become a rival for other soprano fellows on stage, like Cossotto made her be felt along one time when she sang Adalgisa along Callas as Norma, and she pushed the singing too much on what Maria was able to sing then, so Fiorenza will shine more. However that was kinda a common stuff she always did in her prime, being a rival for sopranos on her mezzo register - she somewhat didn´t like the supportive status that other mezzos as Simionato or Stigniani did before actually helping along Callas in a good way. Callas would have better followed her co-workers that aided her in a good sportish way, but as she was very pridefull on her soprano diva status then, she felt could have become into something as Cossotto instead that Simionato or Stigniani, so she rather choose to retire and depress herself to an early death later on.

Yeah I kinda knew about it on Verdi but he later choosed on Aida because maybe it was a more easy appealing theme than pushing into a highly complex role which maybe a lot of audiences will be to hard to grasp her relevance, and also that way smartly created some dramatic effect throught the story-flowing to make furtherly thinking on some people if Aida was really worthy of being the title-role of the opera or was actually Amneris all along aside her, but that became a surprise for the audience eventually. Kinda would be legendary and hard for the singer Bampton at the Met do both roles in a week alternating them, not meaning she couldn´t do it, but the main issue if mostly the tessitura differences regardless of vocal ranges themselves. She was maybe an assoluta-type of voice as Maria Callas, henceforth being able to sing both soprano and mezzo as needed (Callas only didn´t made mezzos aside of Carmen once time, because she wasn´t fond of the roles done by them and well she loved more the soprano ones.=

The more I listen to the Callas masterclasses, the more I think THAT play is a vulgar, gross characterization. Callas desperately wanted to pass down this encyclopedic knowledge of this art. She's a task master to be sure, but she's incredibly encouraging to these students. She addresses them by their first names in an effort to reach them. She was taught by the greatest conductors and teachers of all time. Her interpretations are still unmatched. She wanted the art of opera to continue to thrive. Unfortunately, no one respects it nowadays because all they need is a thin body and a pretty face and a passable voice. Opera is dying, folks. Callas could see it happening, in her own way. Just because it's considered "old fashioned" doesn't mean that it isn't right. I pity young singers nowadays, and glad I quit while I was ahead. Basta. Rant ended.

RicharddtheStar My dear, you yourself is the ignorant or idiotic one. After a Joan Sutherland performance of Lucia, Callas was so impressed, that she went to Joan's dressing room to congratulate her and told her: "I could never sing it like you. Therefore I will never sing this role again." And Callas never sang Lucia again. Sutherland is indeed known as the best Lucia ever.
