Rossini - Semiramide Con Montserrat Caballé, Horne, Ramey; López Cobos 1980 Aix En Provence

[@mirjamdevries9376]

Great Ramey in his prime! I love Araiza's amazing dark voice! Super performance of Caballe' and Horne. ❤🙏

[@armando25868]

Sublime, oltre ogni aspettativa umana Grazie sig. Horne e sign. Caballe per averci dato questa meraviglia di bellezza

[@PABLOCARRASCOSA]

Gran dirección también, que evita que la partitura se haga en ningún momento aburrida. Hay Semiramides más perfectas, con una coloratura más ajustada (aunque Montse tenía una coloratura asombrosa en el centro de la voz). Pero esta versión es especialmente emocionante, llena de detalles e imaginación, con un fraseo intencionado magnífico (al menos hasta el la, y en los momentos más dramáticos especialmente). Aunque son evidentes la dureza del do y del re, que hasta se atreve con esas notas, y algún sonido agrio, esta es una de las últimas grandes interpretaciones de Caballé, que empezaba a declinar, pero está rutilante todavía. El resto, también insuperables. Y el montaje, la puesta en escena, superoriginales y superinteresantes.

[@PABLOCARRASCOSA]

Pena que no estén sincronizados sonido e imagen...

[@rafaelgomez8595]

Esto es una maravillosa rareza de hace casi cuarenta años. Vestuario que parece de ciencia ficción. Unas Caballé y Horne en plenas facultades. Una música, la del último Rossi (de menos de cuarenta años) menos repetitiva que otras veces, aunque él siempre fue genial. La obertura se interpreta mucho. Estas son las cosas que hay que recuperar. Thanks, Merci, Danke, Grazie machikokio san

Oui merci beaucoup... j'ai beaucoup cherché cette représentation à laquelle j'ai assisté à Aix et à Paris au théâtre des champs Élysées. Dommage le décalage images son. La magie joue encore pleinement... quelle distribution extraordinaire..Samuel Ramay inoubliable et royal le couple Montserrat CABALE Marilyn Horne au sommet. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗🤗

Esplêndida Ópera...Música! Interpretação! Perfeição!

[@Samuel6969ify]

Cose così non si sono mai sentite in passato e non si sentiranno più in futuro purtroppo. Caballè e Horne a livelli stratosferici!

[@susamigos8642]

Muchas gracias por compartir esta maravilla ❤

Great singing, great affection between Horne and Caballe. Very touching.

Изумительно!!! Божественно!!!

Ich war dabei, im Juli 1980 in Aix, mit meiner Frau : ein einmaliges Erlebnis !

[@franknettleton6527]

Wonderful reminder of Caballe's amazing understanding of how to sing bel canto Rossini.Beautiful understated cadences & liquid coloratura. Horne unsurpassed as Arsarce. What a voice! Nice traditional production. Story rather absurd as it is is set in Assyrian times. ! Really enjoyable . Thanks for posting on youtube.

Thank you thank you thank you for this absolutely beautiful RARE performance....you can't buy it, thank G-d for KZbin. NONE BETTER!!!!

La più bella rappresentazione della Semiramide di tutti i tempi.

[@mirjamdevries9376]

Però peccato che sia molto tagliata. Manca circa un'ora dell'opera intera!

[@fan2jnrc]

​@@mirjamdevries9376 È un'opera talmente noiosa che spesso sembra interminabile, quindi va bene così.

[@robertotorres9945]

The tenor is Francisco Araiza.

[@thricegreatart]

Thank you for this performance. Especially for how I don't need to watch the ludicrous physical production and can get exactly as much joy by just listening.

[@Flyghumlan9]

haha. Those costumes! But I still like to see how Horne and Cabballe communicate on stage. In Spite of Hornes funny helmet etc.

Does anyone notice that the voices and the visuals are not in sync?

[@angeliamilanovic6476]

Thank you for this glorious production and the subtitles, too! Great singers! But for amateurs like me, could anybody tell me who is playing which role?

[@SilfredoSerrano]

Caballe is playing the title role, Semiramide.

Marilyn Horne, Samuel Ramey

The video was advance and the audio was late 😭😭. Great performance especially the pants role

[@Athanael74]

Does anyone know the EXACT date of this performance? It was done in Théâtre de la Cour de l'Archevêché, Aix-en-Provence, in July-August 1980 and also broadcast by Radio-France in STEREO (the video is mono only). Various sources indicate the following four possibilities: 15, 19, 23 July 1980 and 23 August 1980. So which one is it? The Aix Festival archive only specifies the date of the premiere - 15 July 1980 - and that's it.

The crazy amazing singing takes the focus off the totally absurd costumes.

[@RichardTaylor1630]

The costumes are weird, but the strong voices compensate. E.g., the trio beginning at 16:12 is well executed and a lot of fun, except for the lack of sync between the visuals and sound track.

Well that's definitely not June Anderson... Caballe was overrated in Semiramide. By that time, she no longer had the ability to sing it really well.
