❗ EXTREMELY RARE ❗ R. Tebaldi & F. Corelli sing for J. F. Kennedy 1961, Washington D.C.

[@herbertkronzucker8367]

Three great people on that stage who are no longer with us and remind us of true greatnesses past. Neither today's opera singers nor today's politicians are in the same league. A touching way to commemorate Franco's passing.

[@janosvas8597]

also Sie haben das wirklich ausgezeichnet formuliert! Danke

[@herbertkronzucker8367]

@@janosvas8597 Danke auch Ihnen :). I had started the day with the legendary 1960 Poliuto recording, a good antidote to the mediocrity of our time.

[@Наталья-с6ю5й]

@@herbertkronzucker8367 Как хорошо и точно Вы заметили, именно противоядие в виде хорошей оперы. Обожаю "Полиуто", готова смотреть и слушать постоянно, опера хороша с любого момента, и хор замечательный, музыка божественна, ведь опера действительно на божественный сюжет. Многим церковным бонзам неплохо бы ее послушать и вникнуть в смысл. С уважением, Натали.

[@massimocassano2545]

Ciò che colpisce oltre alla rarità del documento storico contestuale al prestigioso ambito ,e' l ' attenzione costante col viso rivolto ai due grandi artisti del Presidente Kennedy. Esempio di massima educazione , rispetto e partecipazione .

[@annaschumate1565]

What a magnificent tribute to Corelli and Tebaldi and a precious gift to all of us! Grazie di cuore! 🩷

[@Наталья-с6ю5й]

Спасибо огромное! Даже небольшие фрагменты живого выступления Франко Корелли имеют необычайную ценность. Скажу больше - президент Кеннеди и Рената Тебальди для меня отходят на второй план, только Франко Корелли занимает все мое внимание. Волшебный голос и умопомрачительная внешность. С уважением, Натали.

[@leonardcohen5529]

Как я с вами согласна. Хотя я люблю Тебальди и уважаю харизматичного Кеннеди, но Франко Корелли настолько прекрасен и вокально и внешне, что других, даже ярких людей, перестаешь замечать при нем.

[@MarcENicholson]

What a moment! I spent my career as a US diplomat based at the State Department, but until know I did not know that that auditorium, with which I am quite familiar, had hosted two of my favorite opera singers of all time 15 years before I joined the diplomatic service. It's actually a pretty drab auditorium, so it's nice to think that at least once it was "lit up" by these great artists.

[@giusizarra9230]

Worth noticing that this is the Celebration of 100 years of Italy unification, held at the State Department Auditoriun on March 16, 1961. President Kennedy and the First Lady attended the ceremony and the President delivered a remarkable speech (you can find it online)

[@potusumanbibingka]

In my observation, this is the next available video of Franco singing live after the 1958 Forza. So happy to see him sing live during his prime days. Coincidentally, he's with Renata in both instances. I hope a lot of videos during his prime will emerge soon. Grazie.

what a find with both of them in their primes… A pity for the cuts, but still great footage of real opera singing!

[@davidnewton9496]

Incredible find. Thank you for sharing. Also, note how JFK is intently listening to the artists.

[@fabriziogarzi9892]

Kennedy era un rozzo. Non credo si interessasse molto a Corelli e alla Tebaldi...avrebbe preferito in quel momento sicuramente una canzone cantata dalla Marilyn Monroe.

[@21Placido1]

Thank you very much, I was heartbroken. It's incredible that you can see this footage now.

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

This is simply a fantastic slice of history, we are incredibly fortunate that you have been able to provide a small momento of this day. Franco is youthful and dashing, he is singing even more sweetly and sensitivity than usual. Of course Ms. Tebaldi also sounds amazing. Any footage with JFK is truly special.

[@RM-tc9pu]

I read somewhere that President Kennedy was not exactly musical, but he looks entranced... Did Corelli and Tebaldi perform a little miracle?

[@giacomovallati3104]

Noto che non solo Kennedy è l'unico, con gesto di vera signorilità, a guardare sempre nella direzione dei due cantanti (mentre quelli accanto a lui sembrano distanti, indifferenti), ma è anche quello che li applaude con maggior vigore.

[@romainlefsab2812]

Franco Corelli était splendide

[@christopherczajasager9030]

Sings a bit too loud

[@paules3437]

She sounds great in Pace, Pace. I think I read that there were two "camps" about who was better, her or Callas. I've never understood why people go ga-ga over Callas. Renata sounds very powerful here. There's a hilarious audio glitch, just as she's about to sing a high note at 4:30, the audio makes a sound like the sound effect of a cartoon character slipping on a banana peel.

[@ER1CwC]

They represented two different approaches to operatic singing (kunst v. stimme). But ultimately, they were both at their best when they gravitated towards the middle - when Callas had a voice, and when Tebaldi was dramatically involved.

[@toscadonna]

And the people who perform for the politicians these days cannot be heard without a microphone and auto tune. How far we’ve fallen.

[@labienus9968]

Well, particularly one politician we are cursed with.
