Surta è la note...Ernani! involami - Joan Sutherland, 1979

Richard Bonynge conducts this legendary performance live from the Lincoln Center.

[@pauliberg3492]

the voice of an angel, absolutely divine.

[@lastupendaboy]

Magnificent…..

[@davidallen508]

My main reason for living is to be able to listen to Dame Joan until I die. It’s impossible to explain the joy she brings me.

[@user-hr6li9nu7y]

Get some help...

Once one has heard the voice of Joan Sutherland live the first time., One's life is transformed. And i'm an opera singer myself.

[@joshuamcpherson007]

Richard was right. She had no idea how great she was...but we did. Thank you as always!

[@user-gt7xs1fc6g]

What an inane remark. She knew exactly how great she was and thus felt no need to keep making others say how great she was. No singer of her stature is without self knowledge.

[@joshuamcpherson007]

@@user-gt7xs1fc6g It was Richard's remark, I just repeated it genius. He was married to her for over 50 years. Maybe give him a call and straighten him out. You knew her so much better after all.

[@davidhansel4198]

Dame Joan makes it all sound so easy - but even she admitted it was hard work!

[@camilaschuster8445]

Es maravillosa ,una gran voz y técnica., los agudos los canta como nadie.

[@santosgeorgeg]

Truly her voice is magnificent, so very nice ...

[@lastupendaboy]

I’ve commented before… but again, I’m stunned by this powerful, feminine performance… Brava sempre, beloved and greatest lady

[@machovoce6826]

Superb job on the audio clean up! If anyone stood and sang this aria half this well today, the audience would be on its feet.

[@zambakanengue9966]

Impecable y algo para aplaudir durante horas Mandan Sutherland aquí nos da una Clase Magistral de como abordar una obra tan difícil como está sin dejar de destacar que poseía una voz bella y bien colocada debo decir que adquirió una técnica muy evolucionada para su época para mí Es y será la soprano Estrella de todos los tiempos elegancia y distinción la hacen brillar junto a una espléndida voz llena de una belleza insuperable desde Madrid quiero agradecer a las personas que hacen posible videos como este de una de las más grandes figuras del arte de la ópera

[@acitipo]

Los dos Luciano y Joan son las voces más hermosas que han existido.

[@drtremolo1]

nobody trills like Rosa !

[@nwdixieboy]

She sang this earlier in her career but the low passages were much better here in her more mature voice.

[@jacksontremaine8382]

A V-Shred ad played before this. ?. What a waste of time. The V-Shred, that is.

[@topazinoz6150]

I was Joan's understudy in The "Tales of Hoffman", the first role she ever sang at the Sydney Opera House.

[@johnpickford4222]

So that likely means you never had the chance to appear, colorectal, as she never canceled

[@MiguelArcangel-zi7xd]

Feliz tu!!! Que la tuviste cerca!!!

[@brunoantony3218]

She’s the only one who gets this transition right 👉 7:00 not to mention the incredibly gorgeous trill.

[@aaronmalone7065]

Not the only one LOL. Price got it right. And she had trills too.

@@aaronmalone7065 Only extremely early in her career. Love Price and her voice lasted a long time but the flexibility didn't last but for a short time.

[@patrickandrew122]

Different voice type!

[@patrickandrew122]

And Price sang the role on stage, Joan didn't attempt same.

[@ahogbin2644]

She was not her usual perfect self in this concert. Minor mistakes in the cabaletta and later in the Hamlet mad scene. Apparently she had been spooked by the lightning and the fact that every famous singer and agent in New York was present.

[@larrywoods6318]

She may not have been her usual perfect self in this concert but she far better than any other soprano in second place

[@sutherland9]

She also forgot the words in the Brindisi from La Traviata. But she was still amongst the greatest.

[@joshuamcpherson007]

She admitted to being prone to lapses of memory as time went along...and we saw a few in this performance. The singing itself, however, was still head and shoulders above most of her colleagues.

[@sutherland9]

@@joshuamcpherson007 It was common for Dame Joan to sing recitals with the sheet music in front of her - no crime, but not the norm for recitals.

[@joshuamcpherson007]

@@sutherland9 Yes, that's true, and she almost always insisted on a prompter during a staged performance...later in career. " I have a lousy memory" was her usual explanation.

[@richardvergara]

I love her wig!!!

[@fido652]

Surely that is her own lid ?

[@user-hr6li9nu7y]

She had the same one for her entire career...lacquered with crazy glue to stay put!

[@brunoantony3218]

Price can’t sing the cabaletta 😅

[@patrickandrew122]

Nonsense!

[@ramongerman6440]

Yes she definitely can

[@brunoantony3218]

@@ramongerman6440 just listen to both and if you think the speed, the dexterity, the clarity and delivery of the coloratura are the same, we have nothing to discuss.
