[@irinadavidofflavrentyeva798]

This is one of the most dramatic and vocally most difficult role in the operatic repertuar, The year is 1962 and Callas voice is still so full, powerful and "flows" like untamed wild river, despite some "critics" ridiculous judgments that she lost her vocal power. She never did! From the first orchestra's notes her face expresses such pain and anguish of Elizabeth...She didn't even start singing, but she was already deep in the image of Elizabeth. Because she was not just phenomenal opera singer - she was also an extraordinary Artist. She lived with the music and follows the music with her soul...

[@HajimeIshii-dn6mz]

Maria Callas never lost her amazing voice. What she lost was her confidence as a diva, which eventually made her live as a recluse in Paris. It is sad to realize that a well-known diva like her had to lead such a tragic life. I wish she had gained her confidence when she gave her lessons of Master Class at the Juilliard School in the early 70s.

[@Amanda-CNH]

She lost control of her voice because of a rare autoimmune disease, which eventually led to her death.

Non ricordo quale genio critico disse che la Callas era brava, ma che purtroppo cantò per tutta la sua carriera soltanto la mediocre musica dell'opera italiana. Che monumento allo snobismo asinino. In questa pagina ineguagliata Verdi non sbaglia una singola nota, oro purissimo dalla prima all'ultima.

[@Марта-м4к]

Великая Актриса И Певица!!!! 🕊🕊🕊❤❤❤

[@christopherbaswell4415]

It's fascinating to compare this with Callas' Hamburg concert performance. of 1959, also on KZbin. Her face has aged a little, appropriate to the role, and her acting here is more restrained and subtle. It's a more mature mature performance musically too, though in the toughest passages you can begin to hear the beat in the vibrato that troubled her later singing. Still, an extraordinary performance. I don't think anyone comes near today. Asmik Grigorian's version is much praised, but hasn't this power.

[@sir.almasy4812]

마리아 칼라스가 왜 위대한 지 이제야 알았습니다. 이런 영상들이 있어서 그녀를 이해할 수 있었습니다. 물론 그녀의 성악적 기량도 훌륭했지만 그녀의 가장 뛰어난 장점은 감정이입과 공감 능력이라고 생각합니다. 칼라스는 어떤 노래를 부르더라도 자신의 재능을 앞세우지 않고 오페라 가수로서 각각의 캐릭터에 매우 몰입하는 모습을 볼 수 있네요. 정밀 시랑스러운 가수입니다.

@@johnlawrence2757 I believe you. I read a lot about the opera and it's history to modern day

[@rossmerchant8435]

​​@@mistersmith1883 Not necessarily. The orchestral introduction of this aria just sort of also functions as a prelude to the last act of the opera, as the character enters a monastery lost in her thoughts to a reprised version of a motif chanted by monks in the opening of the first act. It depends on the context whether an aria gets a long instrumental introduction, no introduction at all, or is introduced by recitative

Este video demuestra que la Callas fue una soprano dramática hasta el final de su carrera, pese a que a muchos les gusta decir que era una lírica, una spinto o hasta una ligera (!). El tamaño sideral de sus notas centrales y centrales altas es una prueba de ello.

This is one of her best concerts, and she's in very good voice, but even here you can hear the defects in her voice that overpowered her singing later on, such as 3.33 off-key, 9.45, 10.02 wobbling. I'm not a huge Callas fan, but I can appreciate her gifts in her singing from this period.

O Francia, nobil suol, sì caro ai miei verd'anni! Fontainebleau! ver voi schiude il pensiero i vanni. Giuro eterno d'amor là Dio da me ascoltò, E quest'eternità un giorno sol durò. Tra voi, vaghi giardin di questa terra ibéra, Se Carlo ancor dovrà fermare i passi a sera, Che le zolle, i ruscel', i fonti, i boschi, i fior, Con le loro armonie cantino il nostro amor. Addio, bei sogni d'ôr, illusion perduta! Il nodo si spezzò, la luce è fatta muta! Addio, verd'anni, ancor! cedendo al duol crudel, Il core ha un sol desir: la pace dell'avel! Tu che le vanità conoscesti del mondo E godi nell'avel d'un riposo profondo, Se ancor si piange in cielo, piangi sul mio dolor, E il tuo col pianto mio reca appié del Signor. -------- Source: Wikipedia
