Luciano Pavarotti - "Che Gelida Manina" - RARE TV BROADCAST (Paris, 3/3/1965)

I upload some days before the audio recording of the broadcast of Pavarotti's Concert version of "Che Gelida Manina" from Paris (3/3/1965)! And now it's time for the Video ;) Hope to enjoy!!!

As a 30 year old tenor you can hear his green and freshness. He's more covered than open, yet his high C is so bright and open like no others! His diction became so much clearer in his later years, as he admitted that he learned it from Giuseppe Di Stefano. His changing in style and perfection in techniques allows him to be one of the greatest tenors of all time! RIP.

It was about this t ime that I heard him in this role as a substitute for an ailing de Stefano at the Royal Opera House. We were very disapponinted to read the slip in the programame that told of us of this unknown tenor.But our ears pricked up as soon as he sang his first notes and by the end of the Act he was a star!

I'm 76 years of age, he's the best tenor I've heard in my lifetime so far.

Even if you don't like or understand opera, the power and control of his singing is mindblowing

[@blinkape3957]

I’m surprised that people actually disliked this mesmerizing performance, performed by one of the greatest tenors to ever live.

This man is one of the greatest tenors ever. I love to watch him as you can tell he loves what he does. Later on in years he was wonderful singing with all kinds of performers. He was an amazing person. He is missed. I don’t see anybody as his replacement or even close at 5hisntime

I’m here because of Pogo and Data.

The greatest Tenor of all time .I feel it is the beautiful controlled temblor in his voice that adds such nuance to all the roles he sang .

[@markovelikonja5399]

I once read someone say that a man is most interesting when he’s on the way to becoming who he’ll be. So true with Pavarotti; young and fresh, super talented and sincere; not the caricature of himself we would see in his later years.

How lucky we are to have recordings. Even at 55 years, this one gives us a great experience of that incomparable voice.

[@andrewcockburn3227]

Such a fantastic voice, so pure and full of unique energy! Pavarotti was one in a billion!

[@WakeUpJoshua80]

No one has ever performed this aria as beautifully as Pavarotti. Unparalleled to this day. An untouchable voice of the ages. His power, subtlety, and range will endure in the halls of memory as long human conciousness endures. And maybe even beyond that.

Classic Pavarotti. I love the look in his eyes every time he sings. You can tell he would rather be doing nothing else in the world but sing. Truly a man who was born to do what he did. Ti amo e mi manchi, Pavarotti. <3

Being Italian his pronunciation was succinct, but the joy and love of his craft just shone on his face…he was destined to be a Star, and indeed a Star he became! What a treat for those who were there to listen to this wonderful performance. There will be other great tenors in the future I’m sure, but they will have to go an awfully long way to match this man who we all still greatly miss. Thankyou Luciano for all the joy and up lifting of our actual Souls which you brought us. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏💕😘💐🦋

That control is unmistakable and that high c made me stand up and hold my breath!

[@tamerlano]

His voice was made for this music.

[@eberlinpascal2837]

[@MrOlogramma]

there is always something worth living for, this is one

[@klokheten]

A singing school in himself. Charming, beautiful and irresistible and with loving passion.

[@maisonsacre]

Eternal, mindblowing, you can only weep with gratitude that you can hear such a voice on Earth
