MARIA CALLAS, ALWAYS made EVERYBODY around her better. That said, what stands out for me besides the singing is the photograph you accompanied with the post, here is a photo taken clearly by an Opera fan who succeeded in capturing by a snap of a camera the great Verdi moment, Callas in total captures the crisis and embarrassment of the moment and Di Stefano in total manliness and scorn. WOW!!! A perfect picture of history in La Scala. GREAT POST LOHENGRIN!!! Whenever I see a CALLAS post I wag my tail with K9 excitement.

This is the most heart breaking scene from Traviata. Callas' singing of: "Alfredo, Alfredo in questo core" speaks of a profound love and hurt at her lover. It is impossible not to react to this without crying and sometimes sobbing. This is the recorded scene that forever got my heart to love Callas and opera.

When asked why Maestro Di Stefano walked out on this fabulous La Traviata he answered: “I was always against doing this Traviata. I hated having to do it. I didn’t hate the production itself it was beautiful. However, I did not want to sing Alfredo at this stage of my career, at La Scala. I felt that at La Scala, where I was singing important, leading roles, to sing Alfredo would be a step backward, for the role is subordinate to that of Violetta. The conductor was supposed to have been de Sabata. He asked me specially to sing Alfredo for him, and I respected him so much, I couldn’t refuse - - although, I protested that I was no good as Alfredo. He said, ‘No, no, Pippo, you must sing, and make this cast (which included Callas and Bastianini) stronger. I told him that I always went off pitch in the last scene, and he swore that he would himself give me my pitches then. So I accepted. Then I learned that de Sabata had himself withdrawn, and would be replaced by Carlo Maria Giulini. To me, this was one more reason not to do the opera, but the management insisted.” “During the rehearsals, I did everything I could to make them mad, to say, ‘Enough of Pippo! Let’s get someone else.’ All to no avail, and when I did show up at rehearsals, Visconti snubbed me. He had me facing upstage so often that I finally stopped a rehearsal to remind him that I sing with my mouth, not my derriere!" “At the end of the first performance, Callas said to me, ‘don’t come out for a bow, let me go out alone!’ I said, ‘Maria, you can go out alone tonight, and every night from now on, I’m leaving.’ And so, although the audience acclaimed me, I walked out of La Scala, went home, and told my wife to tell Ghiringhelli and de Sabata that I had left Milan.” “Years later, when Callas and I were together, she asked me, ‘Pippo, why did you walk out on that Traviata at La Scala? I never understood that.’ And I told her, ‘Because you insisted on that solo bow.’ Callas began to weep, and begged my pardon. ‘It’s true,’ she cried, ‘the sound of applause could make me do something like that!’ Imagine that!”

I noticed that to. That opening was from the La Scala recording and one of my favorite renditions of this. A bit of back story. Di Stefano walked out on this production after the first performance. He didn't like the direction Callas and the conductor were taking. They fought, so he left. The people were livid because the tenor who replaced him, while good, was no Di Stefano. Just a little back story to the 1956 performance and possibly why his anger sounded so realistic. He was mad lol

La Callas, ah! La Callas, LA DIVINA, que maravilloso final del concertante del segundo acto de la maravillosa Traviata, una ópera de apenas tres personajes, etéreos, profundos y maravillosos. Sólo di Stefano es el tenor dd la Callas, habían tenores con mucho más volumen, pero el fraseo, el sentido dramático y la capacidad actoral ( sin saber una gota de música, sólo instinto) la tenía únicamente di Stefano, la pareja ideal de la Callas y, en esta parte de LA TRAVIATA, todo queda en segundo plano, hasta el coro, con el enfrentamiento musical de este par de monstruos maravillosos de la ópera. Inigualables, irrepetibles, ese ardor, esa entrega nunca más. Era un verdadero desafío entre ambos y al final de la vida de la Callas, di Stefano pasa a ser un amigante, como se dice hoy a “un amigo con derechos”. Callas, siempre Callas, la diva entre divas, la soprano que se prendía fuego en el escenario y se quemaba a sí misma en cada función, y al día siguiente cual ave fénix en una nueva representación o en una nueva ópera. Distintos personajes, pero la misma entrega, el arte más sublime de todos. El de la ópera, también el más difícil. Me gustaría que pusieran de ser posible la fecha exacta de las grabaciones y hasta el día mismo de la función. Es tan misteriosa la capacidad de LA DIVINA, que hasta el día de hoy nadie la iguala, peor la supera. O me pueden decir si alguien más desde ella termina el concertaste con un mi bemol sobreagudo pianissimo. Aclárenme por favor si alguien más lo ha hecho, aunque no sea en vivo como ella, aunque sólo sea en grabación. No creo que haya otra que se atreva. Qué pena para la ópera y qué pena para el mundo.
