Impresionante concierto

[@wallshootout5616]

Überragend die Darstellung der Charaktere durch Nikolai Ghiaurov. Die Stimme ist männlich und ausgereift. München war, ist und bleibt die Musikstadt Nr.1 in Deutschland ❤❤❤❤❤. Das Publikum ist auch sehr aufmerksam, das Orchester sehr gut vorbereitet. Bravo Bravissimo

Direttore fantastico Pretre. Un ricordo unico

[@UlianaClark-ry5mk]

С гордост и благодарност слушам няколко пъти вече това изключително изпълнение на младия Гяуров . Това е не само естетическо удоволствие , но и отворен учебник по пеене на тези арии , защото за оперното пеене не се изисква само глас и техника , а лингвистична култура във вокалния артистизъм , колосална физическа концентрация и издръжливост . Аплодисменти за прекрасния Николай Гяуров !

[@critic9216]

No bass today can approach this standard. What a pity.

[@avecantarina]

Ghiaurov, gorgeous bass. One of the best voices of the century..... great Artist.

[@ГрицькоГудевітер]

He sounds like baritone.

[@tadmilewski]

@@ГрицькоГудевітер he was a basso cantante ( not basso profondo ) and was here relatively young . Every voice (if properly trained ) matures with age , gains depth and color . He had a great technique

[@justicefora11]

​@@ГрицькоГудевітерAbsurd... what type of voice do you think is bass? Are you gonna name an oktavist? I hope not because that would just reveal your ignorance.

[@TheGuidogeno]

La voce di basso più bella mai ascoltata. Grazie!

[@moliendo102]

davvero insuperabile

Fantastico. Punto.....ah e grazie per questa perla di vocalità.

[@nickcowie]

A masterful performance. Truly one of the best of all time, he had it all.

[@bradycall1889]

51:30 That type of ending is one of the most popular aria endings in lyric operas.

[@levoni81]

Incredible how he can sing, his technique is perfect, the most beautiful bas voice ever I have been heard. ❤

[@skisunfb]

This was one of the most impressive and gorgeous voices I ever heard in performance; he had it all and could actually stand close to the choir during the biggest scenes in Don Carlos and Boris and project easily - like a bass trombone - without forcing at all - a jaw dropping experience. Even his speaking voice was a marvel of beauty and resonance. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@HellasItalia4]

La seigneuriale présence de Nicolai Ghiaurov, 37 ans, à SON SOMMET, dirigé par le beau et charismatique Georges Prêtre, 42 ans - ah, ce merveilleux sourire enjôleur. Quel orchestre ! Quel timbalier ! Quel choeur ! Quel programme ! Quel enregistrement ! Un vibrant concert ! 🌹💐🌹💐🌹💐🌹 ENCORE !

[@johnmatthews8480]

I just realized that you haven't posted in about a year. I just discovered your channel and it seems as if it is dedicated to the greatest bass in the 20th century, Nicolai Ghiaurov. I have never seen this performance and it is one of the most glorious accounts of this man's artistry. I cried when I heard the Don Carlo aria and again in the Boccanegra one. No one sang Boris better than Ghiaurov. I was in a production of Boris Godunov in San Francisco in the early 1980's with Ghiaurov. I played a small role but working with this man was awe inspiring; so kind and generous. He acted as if you were a friend even though he could not speak English very well. We got on okay in my broken Italian. I will cherish that memory forever. Thank you for this fantastic performance. Bravo!

[@charlescoleman5509]

My favorite singer of all time! I’m so glad to have discovered this Ghiaurov gem.

[@adamastorBassBar]

What a shame we did not get to hear the wonderful postlude to the Fiesco aria at 1h30m. Devastated!

[@donaldmccormack7580]

Wow !! I really did enjoy this concert. Thank you for uploading it. Most impressive , indeed.

[@achmedmohamed4708]

Niemand kann sich vorstellen, wie laut Ghiaurov war in dieser Zeit, der ihn nicht persönlich gehört hatte. Dieses Konzert kenne ich nur aus dem TV. 1969 war ich dann endlich im Deutschen Museum in München bei seinem 2. Konzert drin. 1961 war Ghiaurov zum ersten Mal im deutschen TV zu sehen bei einem Konzert aus Varna/Bulgarien. Er sang damals auch das Rondo, die Verleumdungsarie und Philipp II. Bis jetzt ist leider noch kein Band davon aufgetaucht.

[@ulrikewermann1268]

ja, wenn man, wie ich mit Ghiaurov in Wien mehr oder weniger aufgewachsen ist, tut sich schwer, je einen anderen Bass gut finden zu können...

[@ДмитрийВасильев-в8щ]

Спасибо большое! Я уже слышал аудиозапись этого концерта и был невероятно счастлив, узнав, что есть видео. Здесь собраны мои самые любимые арии Гяурова (хотя в его исполнении любая ария звучит прекрасно).

[@PolinaStoimeoa]

Великолепен! Благодаря.

[@allenjones3130]

Ghiaurov is perhaps best known for his portrayal of Gounod's Mephistopheles. Rest in peace, Nicolai.

[@NestorSigalesnestor]

Este concierto debe ser recetado para los jovenes que se inician con la musica clasica. Fue un concierto muy cercano a la onda rock. Muy bueno!!!!!

[@allender9]

Superb

[@homagetogreathistoricalsin9711]

Thank you so much for posting this concert! I searched KZbin and this was the first thing that came up this morning. This is a phenomenal concert. Ghiaurov is in his prime here, and of course he was a legend. This whole concert is outstanding though. Wonderful repertoire choices, wonderful orchestra and chorus, and of course one of the great conductors.

[@andressoriano5485]

Thanks so much for posting this jewel. Happy new year.

[@marcoslimalima4242]

Fantástico. The best...

[@liedersanger1]

This is marvelous. PS Someone at the Bavarian Radio and TV must have the FULL video of the Leontyne Price recital in the same hall in Jan.1968. It was broadcast and two snippets of that performance are on KZbin. But the whole thing would be splendid.
