We loved your exquisitely detailed characterization and musicality,dear Ms Scotto. You are missed. And where is a tenor like him today? ❤️

[@margybickerton1016]

I have never heard a voice to beat Jose Carreras and his stage presence was incredible, the emotion he sang with was beautiful, No one ever has and I doubt ever will beat him

[@masonmcgowan2825]

Carreras was 28 when this was recorded. 28 years old and executing an incredible high C above a full orchestra. Absolutely incredible.

Qui mi è piaciuto

This is so beautiful Carreras in his prime and Scotto in a role she excelled in. They worked very well together.

[@Huaimek861]

Magnificent singing from both !!!

TRAUMHAFT ❤

[@ER1CwC]

Scotto’s sense of rubati here is incredible. It is ambitious but still always maintains the pulse - just right! A tremendously musical singer.

[@zeagen1487]

I was there in 1974!

[@larrywoods6318]

Carreras has always been my favorite of the 3 T's. And certainly better looking of the 3 as well. Even though his voice changed later in his career, I still loved him. Scotto in her prime was great. A very intelligent singer.

David H. I was also there in 1974. Retired now but surgeon then, newly in practice. I was overwhelmed and still remember it as one of my favorite opera experiences. Scotto was fresh and young, Carreras at his peak.

Absolutely beautiful. Both singers in their early unforced years. If only they had continued to sing this way….

[@micaelklein1799]

Addio Renata ❤

[@williamburnett4585]

I was at this performance. Carreras had been scheduled for all performances, but his arrival in San Francisco was delayed because of illness. Aragall and Merighi had performed in his place prior to this. It was an exciting performance, not just the singing, but the surprise, because I had not heard that Carreras had finally arrived. His San Francisco Opera debut had taken place the prior season as Rodolfo in "Boheme".

From here to Heaven..

[@carlosoliva5706]

Que belleza de voces, de musicaldad, de deseo musical en los ritardandos y accelerandos!!! Absolutamente genial!! Se me saltaron las lagrimas varias veces ante tanta bellaza.

CARRERAS dueto magistral, como sempre CARRERAS deu um grandioso show na execução deste concerto magnífico. Tradução para o português do Brasil. Da sua fã do Brasil desejando muita saúde e grandes sucessos, prosperidade e sua obra social cada vez mais fiquefortalecida em benefício de seus semelhantes. Parabéns pela magnitude do mundo do insuperável coração bondoso que tantas vidas foram salvas pelo seu grande amor pelos semelhantes não viu raça nem credo. Boa tarde CARRERAS.

Dos de los grandes

[@tomlaw2707]

Tremendous

[@georgehand7027]

Thanks to whomever. I have a Butterfly from around that time with Luis Lima and [my spelling] Yasuki Hyashi that was an "official" SF Opera recording intended for release on 'QXR and other like stations and the sound is notably better. Was this a "pirate" done from the audience? Is there an "official" version out there? Regardless: I'm on my second go through and it gets better. Grazie mille!

[@TheBaronescarpia]

Carreras IS Pinkerton. No way .

[@jesusmunoz2400]

Scotto maravillosa, Carreras estaba en su esplendor vocal. Una pena que su declive fuera tan rápido incluso antes de la enfermedad. Tenía una bella voz pero los mismos defectos que Pippo a la hora de emitir la voz. Su plenitud vocal sólo duró unos 15 años.

[@charlesrhodes1358]

Carreras makes a mistake!
