I was there. Very young, but mesmerized by these two incredible voices. The weather was perfect, as I recall, and the mood was relaxed and serene.

[@Fedeilfico]

You were very very lucky. That was the year I was born, much too young to witness that great era.

[@jennyzhang9125]

You were so lucky, which was that year?

Montserrat Caballé is magic

[@luisorlandijorquera3471]

In my 60 years of opera loving, that is my trilogy: Montserrat - Maria - Joan

Maria? You mean Callas?

Two of the greatest ever at their craft. And Kurt Herbert Adler, doesn’t get any better! And I was there! My first Opera in the Park!

[@terryhenson3350]

Smart and lucky you!!!

[@terryhenson3350]

I love the way these two friends love each other!!!!

[@rudyfan1926]

This was my first Opera in the Park. An incredible afternoon and I was sitting not too far from these two great singers

[@judyjones2475]

Just devine, Montserrat the best ever and Marilyn her beloved friend ❤️ ♥️ 💙

[@emitch9213]

This was great to hear and see them together, true pals. Harsh to feel these two greats have left us to the other side of the veil. Heaven must be a glorious sound!! 💜🌹💜🌹🎼🎵🎶

[@harrywinfield5119]

Last I checked, Marilyn Horne is still among the living. 88 is tough, but she’s still breathing according to Wikipedia. Lol

[@NickGreenwoodable]

@@harrywinfield5119 Yes indeed, still going strong!

[@SilfredoSerrano]

I know Marilyn and Joan enjoyed a long partnership, but Caballe and Horne, wow! I came together late, but better late than never! Their Semiramide is legendary!

We can feel he pleasure they have to sing together.

[@danielhughes441]

I was a kid when I attended this concert in SF. It was spectacular!

[@tomtalker2000]

Marilyn's range is incredible. She is what an opera singer is and should be all about.

[@DiomedesDioscuro]

Except she had a wrong ugly emission...

[@TimothyJonSarris]

Viva Caballe!!!

Какое божественное пиано в верхнем регистре у Монсеррат (1:39). Наверное, никто в мире так не мог, и не может. ❤

[@MiguelArcangel-zi7xd]

Sé que aún está viva Marilyn Horne, la Grande , le preguntaría: “Qué se siente haber cantado con las dos mejores sopranos del siglo Sutherland y Caballe sería interesante escuchar su respuesta.

Fortunately that band shell on the music concourse of Golden Gate Park wasn't demolished after being damaged in the earthquake eight years later.

[@johnpickford4222]

And to think that the American Opera Society was presenting LUCREZIA BORGIA for Marilyn Horne to see if she would transition to dramatic soprano when she had to drop out. And who replaced her: Montserrat Caballe! But I thought that Horne only sang this with Sutherland???

Ancora non aveva sviluppato quei suoni nasali fastidiosissimi nel passaggio basso.

[@robert111k]

Esto es un divertimento, un concierto en el parque, no ópera. Por otro lado, Caballé tenía ya casi 50 años y esto, seguramente, fue un bis (si me lee alguien que lo sepa de cierto, porfa, que me lo confirme o me lo refute). No pidamos peras al olmo como, por ejemplo, que canten en la tonalidad que Bellini escribió.

[@starlove7474]

Is that a real flower in Monsie"s ear?

[@Twentythousandlps]

Kurt Herbert Adler is conducting. This is transposed a half-tone down from the usual E-flat.

[@rugby8-Philadelphia]

It's written in the key of F Not Eb

[@Twentythousandlps]

Rugby8 is correct that it is actually written in F. I am correct to say it is usually done in E flat. And that here they did it in D.

[@theonlygoodlookinghabsburg2081]

@@Twentythousandlps That's because the day before they both sang Semiramide, so given how tiring, difficult and ornamental Semiramide is, they didn't want to over exhaust themselves here.

[@Twentythousandlps]

Interesting, makes sense. But I wonder how they had orchestra parts in those keys.@@theonlygoodlookinghabsburg2081
