FILM: Maria Jeritza - Ritorna vincitor [Aida] - 1933 (CORRECT PITCH)

[@jeffreymiller4814]

I met and chatted with her twice. Once in Newark, 1974, at Turandot with Birgit, Domingo and Albanese, and once after a 1977 Met performance while walking to her car. She always loved to talk to her fans, even at 90!

[@AfroPoli]

Sublime.

[@МихаилХристов-л6г]

A Legend... great voice...and great character... Forgotten beauty and quality...

[@Tenortalker]

What a privilege to hear and see her sing. We are lucky this film , however imperfefct it may be exists. She was certainly a great artiste.

[@davemattia]

I grew up living next door to her. I spent a lot of time in her house and was given her old cat when she died. She died when I was 14. It's mentioned in my IMDB bio -- David D. Mattia.

[@operabilia]

In Forrest Hills?! Have you met Liesl?

[@anthonymcaulay6137]

You are very fortunate. From what I have read she was a charming character.

[@Lalaland-q2z]

@@operabilia She lived at this time and died in Newark, NJ.

[@TONEBHURT]

Extraordinairy character! Voice💎

[@MrSkylark1]

The PROFESSIONAL (?) SOPRANOS TODAY should LISTEN TO JERITZA AND LEARN WHAT SINGING IS ALL ABOUT

[@ioannisroussos8352]

They should listen, but they will not do it. We live in the era of Kitsch

[@walterbenjamin1386]

Stupendous artist with a big beautiful voice. And so even!

[@roberthorn1838]

This gives a much better idea of what is obviously a superb voice than the recordings I have previously heard.The sound seems to involve her whole body. We don't hear that much anymore

[@josefhussek790]

Bei so einer schönen und ausdrucksstarken Stimme ist es egal, in welcher Sprache sie singt. Und wäre es Chinesisch, es wäre wunderbar. Schön, dass es dieses Live Dokument von ihr gibt!

[@terrance7220]

Wow her voice sounds much bigger than in her recordings.

[@gregorywiederecht]

True, but most of her recordings were made during the 1920s. This was during the '30s, where there was a massive leap forward in sound recording quality

[@Nacidodelmar]

Extremadamente MARAVILLOSA! GORGEOUS!

[@miaovoo7161]

WoW Wonderful

[@sergiosanchezsanchez8712]

Es maravilloso rescatar y remasterizar todas estas joyas musicales del pasado ¡Bravo!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@ChristainSTARS]

A thrilling glimpse of a legendary diva! ....thank you for this!

[@ericaminer970]

Wow, you adjusted the pitch? I can't imagine how you managed that. I'm impressed, as well thankful to you for posting this.

[@jeffreymiller4814]

I think this may be footage of her actually singing, not lip syncing. 1933 could have been filmed either way. At age 46 she is still in vibrant voice.

[@robertoramossempere7252]

Jeritza, diva hasta la médula: una Aída rubia...

[@alfvillanueva]

Didn t know this existed !! Thanks so much for uploading this !!! Hope the complete film is available !! Bless you !!

[@GaryMckenzie-qy9hw]

She sang on the breath, kept the voice in front of her, and didn't manufacture the tone.

[@VivienShotwell]

Wow!

[@liedersanger1]

The old semaphore school of acting! Gorgeous middle and lower notes, open, present singing.... only the ultimate finish on the high notes (as at 5:15) is missing.

[@SilverSingingMethod]

No wonder Puccini loved her.

[@darlin.kleidoscope]

❤❤❤

[@gabribesanzoni7091]

La voce è di bella qualità...ma l''intonazione è precaria in più di un punto.

[@diamondking3421]

I have a photo of me at het grave site.

[@ransomcoates546]

Don’t people hear her a little under the pitch throughout?

[@jenylogan1]

Yes, I thought it was just me !

[@ralphoperaphile]

Yes - it's painful.

[@onkelgreifenklau]

⁠@@ralphoperaphileyou are apparently more sensitive to pain than Puccini and Strauss

[@ralphoperaphile]

@@onkelgreifenklau That's meaningless

[@onkelgreifenklau]

@@ralphoperaphile you’ve got a point - to compare you with Strauss and Puccini is indeed meaningless :-)

[@liricacantante194]

Caspita ! In Tedesco

[@BellaFirenze]

Maria Jeritza (born Marie Jedličková; 6 October 1887 - 10 July 1982)

[@wiesawrudnicki5303]

O czym ten dyrygent opowiada rekami ale to chyba nie jest jezyk migowy JERITZA PIEKNIE ale ten niemiecki no coz mozna i tak

[@alfredbernasek6761]

DAS WAR NOCH OPER

[@sachseco]

mindless conductor!
