Maria Callas and Franco Corelli "In mia man alfin tu sei" (1953)

[@mariaruskova6054]

I am addicted to the voices of the young Corelli and Callas. Forces of nature. One can understand what was the price of her losing weight.

[@olofholm8612]

It has of course nothing to do with her losing weight.

[@saelind73]

Exactly. Idk why some people keep repeating this bs.@@olofholm8612

[@ci6473]

I agree!!!!!

[@edithhenson6917]

Everybody in that opera house had better have been on their feet after that. They were unbelievably lucky to have even been there!!!

[@sarah1897]

Questo duetto è mitico!! La Callas e Corelli sono di un' altra galassia!! Potentissimi con una interpretazione artistica incredibile!! Ascolto questo brano da anni e l' emozione e l'adrenalina che sanno sprigionare è sempre indescrivibile!! Grazie 🙏🏻 per questa perla preziosissima!!

[@vittorinabarbosio6373]

Che dire di due dei della lirica?Semplicemente una favola....Mai più ci saranno voci che ti prendono il cuore e ti conquistano completamente .Sublimi

[@SteveODonnell25]

The greatest Norma and Pollione ever. They will never be equaled.

[@awokwok1029]

I prefer Monaco in this role. He's more exciting...

[@familypondman]

@@awokwok1029 Use your eyes and ears!

[@natalino501]

Callas e Franco Corelli ..sublimi ...mi incantano, bravi entrambi...li adoro..

[@artdanks]

Wow! Her chest voice in her opening phrase is so massive, she sounded like a tenor! (In an incredibly good way, of course!) Thanks for posting.

[@fzpe856]

Art Danks indeed.

[@joaocampelo3725]

YES !! I’m shocked!! Early today I listened to a tenor that sounder weaker than that ahahah

[@impresariopazzo]

I was shocked too. Callas is the definition of the soprano sfogato voice. This is the voice of Norma. I am in awe.

[@milanetc4865]

Yes it's incredible. What a moment!

[@aliaguerin1266]

what was it .... 9 octave???? Callas.

[@renepaccard7914]

Bonjour un sublime duo les deux monstres sacres de l opera jamais egales tant par la voix que par l elegance incomparable merci pour ce beau moment de plaisir

[@Samuel6969ify]

Brividi ed emozioni che si provano solo quando canta Callas. Se si aggiunge la meravigliosa voce di Corelli siamo in un'altra dimensione.

[@renepaccard7914]

Bonjour un regal les deux plus belles voix reunies dans ce duo immortel grace a ces fabuleux enregistrements merci vraiment ca fait plaisir

[@josedomingosgiffonirosa8362]

Maria Callas e Franco Corelli! Duas das vozes mais sublimes do século XX!

[@fzpe856]

Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! I am in heaven. I adore them. Callas always divine. ❤️❤️

[@pammyjones1151]

Could it possibly get better than this??!!!......glorious! Thank you 😚

[@celesteaida48]

Inimitabili. Non interpretano, vivono le parti! ❤❤ Toccano il cuore e l’anima.

[@marlenehartley7742]

The greatness of Callas is that she was able to inhabit whatever role she was singing including Lucia, Violeta and Anna Bolena.

[@folliefollymops7676]

WOW...this is simply to die for! Grazie! Grazie!

[@pablocarrascosamiguel7680]

Es increíble la densidad vocal y su capacidad tanto para el canto spianato como para el canto fiorito. Los trinos en 4:28 son asombrosos, la agilidad de fuerza incomparable, el contraste entre las notas de cabeza y de pecho impresionante...

[@SpecialtyHorseTraining]

I saw Corelli in Fanciulla, Chenier (with Tebaldi), the Verdi Requiem, and Tosca with that "Vittoria" that went around the world. Fantastic voice and looks. And I got his autograph. I had a chance to hear Callas, but it was the end of her career and I didn't as I want to hear her having vocal problems.

[@kristeeharding]

Beautiful!!

[@kristeeharding]

Before she lost all the weight and hurt her voice.

[@Iamsegesest]

Can’t get enough of this 👏👏👏

[@hectorhugomoyano9518]

ÙNICA !!!! ATEMPORAL !!!!! UNA BELLEZA ÈSTA INTERPRETACIÒN !!!!!!!!

[@hansvanbussel2999]

Yes, Callas truly IS Norma ...

[@morganchan2465]

Those alto notes are electrifying ~

[@familypondman]

Better then ever her low notes are so natural and so her high notes are!

[@marie-jeannevallecalle9991]

Enorme travail pour en arriver là bravo 👏 💕 💕 a tout les deux 💕👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️💖💖💖💖

[@raffaelamontanari2373]

Unico e insuperabile al mondo divino e stratosferico

[@ANNEAish]

Many voices sound similar for a few notes but are sung in a different position vocally unique to the singer.

[@kristeeharding]

God gave her a beautiful voice!

[@armandosanchez4978]

Chest voice for days.

[@nevena2001]

Двама велики в безсмъртна опера!

[@vivianbelissima]

la piu brava

[@DCFunBud]

Both of these giants acted with their voices. You can hear Corelli crying like Caruso used to.

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

Yes, Corelli had tears in the voice.

[@yaelpalombo4093]

💖💐💐💖

[@leedsuza1]

At the bottom of her range, she sounds like Correli itself. :,/

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

That is some exaggeration. But it does show why the role requires a dramatic tenor, if it was a lyric then it might have been true.

[@debbiejohnson2789]

She sounds like a man in the opening bars.

[@perlesbaroquesuniques]

Her voice is most naturally leaning to evil, menacing roles - Medea, Norma, Abigaille, Lady Macbeth, Tosca - all murderesses - where a lot of darkness is required. She is never as impressive in Traviata, Lucia, Anna Bolena, etc. Corelli conveys Pollione perfectly - one can sense from his singing that he is a beautiful man for whom all women fall.

[@kesinskii]

What bullshit

[@franekchlebanowski7222]

Imo one does not exclude another - she was perfect Lucia and Violetta, and many people find her Bolena interpretation unsurpassed…

[@moonlightelf591]

Her Anna Bolena was magical.

[@artdanks4846]

You obviously have no clue about the greatness of La Callas!

[@stavrosanthias2083]

I’m afraid I beg to differ - but it’s a very personal opinion, to which you are fully entitled. This is why each unique singer had his or her loyal legion of passionate fans. 😄

[@celloguy]

Callas sings him off the stage here. She is like a wildcat, the huge shifts in colour, the aching melancholy and pain in the sound, the incisive coloratura like a blade. Corelli had a magnificent instrument of course but it’s not his most exciting performance here - at times that fast vibrato sounds turns caprino here and he cannot match her intensity - his emotion sounds manufactured and very contained.

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

Perhaps you have never read the libretto of this opera. The tenor barely sings three lines here and they have to sing very low most of time. There are very few exciting tenor high notes, other than at the end. This is far more of a showcase for the soprano than for the tenor. Corelli's sings with pure emotion, as what is expected from his character at this point. Pollione is in a very compromised position he knows he has been caught and he is about to die, he is in a defeated position, and he knows he was wrong. Any punishment that he could receive is not unfair. He is being soic and taking responsibility for his choices that led him to this point. Pollione is a Roman proconsul, he is not an emotional teenager. The only place where he get agitated is when Norma mentions that she almost killed their children. Other than that he shows sorrow and pleads for the life Adalgisa. This is not Pollione's moment. To be honest this is not exactly the biggest role for a tenor. The story is obviously much more focused Norma. The tenor really only has one strong section at the start of the opera. Of course Callas sings with great emotion here this Norma's big moment, and Callas was a great emotional singer. But Callas certainly wasn't the only opera singer that sang with emotion. Corelli was also one of the most emotional singers you can find.
