Joan Sutherland & Marilyn Horne "Mira, o Norma" on The Ed Sullivan Show

[@paulevensen]

Opera on prime time Sunday night television, and brilliant performances from world-class stars. Could you imagine this today? Breathtaking!

[@wamsies]

thought the same ... the dumbing down and uglification of the world...but once, there were legends.

[@marilynbartlett1850]

Two of the most awesome female voices to have ever sung a note.

[@donallally4892]

They matched each other beautifully, and brought the whole world beauty and loveliness

[@LesPaul7677]

Everyone needs someone to look at them as Marilyn looks at Joan on 1:16 😊

[@AllenJones-w3p]

One of opera's greatest duets, brought to life by two of opera's greatest singers.

[@LoneWolf-bu6sh]

Oh Dear Lord, I'm so happy I stumbled upon this. Beauty and perfection.

[@amazon0971]

Magnificent! The duet masterclass.

[@stevensmall6043]

This is what they'll sing together when they are reunited at the last.

[@donallally4892]

Just beautiful and radiant singing, the true beauty of Opera, and of life

[@vanmusician]

I was at their very first performance of this opera - Vancouver Oct 1963

[@edwinruskinnordrikeparker2666]

Oh gosh imagine watching this live on TV the night the show aired! 🤩

[@dabeage]

Stunning. I love them both.

[@franksinatraalvesprates9933]

Impeccable.

[@Shahrdad]

What a beautiful creature and singer she was and is.

[@pragmaticcat7619]

[@dustymiller1178]

[@gabrielrueda9085]

GREAT ARTISTS

[@sgnmath1234]

This is the type of entertainment that is on late night shows today. Right???

[@Fedeilfico]

🤣

[@martasampaio9134]

Not even that anymore, with the exception of a few honourable public televisions.

[@judethaddeus9856]

Uh, no.... this performance is some 40+ years old

[@frahn1702]

I wish

[@amazon0971]

just perfect

[@gerdinabergmans265]

Breathtaking…! 🙏

[@ericfern8869]

Please include the dramatic climax of this duet! "Si, fino all'ore estreme Compagna tua m'avrai. Per ricovrarci insieme Ampia è la terra assai. Teco del fato all'onte Ferma opporrò la fronte, Finchè il tuo core a battere Io senta sul mio cor, si."

[@leonardozuid8733]

Heaven on Earth

[@desperatehell]

Se la perfezione esiste, è questa.

[@brendanmccann2455]

🎭👏👏

[@elenatroufi6263]

Why was it cut off? Can we get the rest?

[@MostlyBrenda]

No, Marilyn was not a tiny woman, it was just that Sutherland was an Amazon at 6' 2"

[@KajiVocals]

That has been disproven by Joan's husband. She was 5''9.

[@MostlyBrenda]

@@KajiVocals Thanks! Somebody should correct Wikipedia, although Horne is listed at 5'6" in some places.

[@sgnmath1234]

@@MostlyBrenda Marilyn Horne was barely 5 feet tall.

[@MostlyBrenda]

@@sgnmath1234 Thank You! 5' and 5'9" makes sense. I don't know why people, their managers, agents etc give out such false numbers. Often I've seen 2-3 inches taller, but this seems crazy.

[@LaDivinaLover]

@@KajiVocals no sir, Bonynge told me **In Person** that Joan was over 6’ and I’ll take his word for it over someone on KZbin’s comment section. Pavarotti was a proven 6’2” and she’s always been as tall or taller than him when she wore heels. Try again.

[@unclelouie3828]

WHY do these opera videos say "Ed Sullivan Show"?? None of them are from the Ed Sullivan Show.

[@erichetherington9314]

You don't suppose them hairdos provide extra resonance and that's why they sound so great, do ya?

[@richardvergara]

Best lesbian duet ever!!!

[@twainhouson-frederick1847]

Lol behave😁

[@markdarenvillanueva7740]

is marilyn not wearing any bra?

[@marcelbureau2753]

The perfect duo of singers ! They had the same horribly bad vocal technique! Both with an over-covered and muffled sound, both moaning and gargling perfectly together!
