I'm sure you all know the story (recounted in Sutherland's autobiography) of when the stars got together to begin the recording sessions. Caballe brought flowers to Sutherland. Joan asked, "Flowers for the diva?" Montserrat responded, "Flowers FROM the diva!"

I love love LOVE Joan Sutherland - but something wasn't quite right with her middle and lower voice - maybe she was ill? Still - a respectable and ringing top D from Joan... Caballe sounds glorious! Luciano, who is my favorite tenor, didn't sound quite his usual best here either - maybe they had a cold or virus when they recorded this? Thanks for posting this though!

You’re right. The stars of this trio look great on paper, but Sutherland’s voice had thickened quite a bit and acquired a beat by this point. Caballe had also lost tonal quality. I’m a huge fan of both ladies, but Sutherland’s earlier Norma recording with Marilyn Horne and John Alexander is far superior.
@SymphonyBrahms5 жыл бұрын
@@wotan10950 Sutherland's early recordings are great. But by the late 1970's Her voice was beginning to deteriorate because of age. So why did she redo recordings of works that she had already recorded? (Norma, Lucia, Traviata, etc.) It was because she could record them with Pavarotti. He was the biggest ticket in town, a huge draw, the performer that everyone wanted to work with. And those new recordings would sell like hotcakes. So the real reason was money. Those remakes made lots of money. And sadly, sometimes money overrules art.

Sutherland squawks and has loosening tone (in 1984 she was a little past her prime which also accounts for her wild swooping to high notes) and has no pianissimo. Recording is not great (over reverberant). Caballé’s tone is perfectly focussed and of course was limpidly beautiful.

Etianno NONSENSE: Callas is one interpretation and Sutherland is another. There is a power and delicacy that Sutherland offers which Callas never could, especially after the late fifties. What was her vocal problem? Attitude, poor choice of roles or indifference to her art caused by a Greek billionaire who dumped her? Hmmmm, SUTHERLAND IS IT!!!

Je ne la trouve pas inaudible, le sans intérêt je vois très bien de quoi vous parlez; par contre elle avait une bonne étique et ses coloratures et aigus toujours au rendez-vous.. L'enregistrement a de l'intérêt en tant qu'expérimentation surtout, puis il est de très bonne qualité technique.. et il paraît qu'ils ont pris plaisir à le produire.

@@johnpickford4222 You shouldn’t be so rude about the vocal decline of Callas’ voice!. It was beyond her control. Everybody knows that in her earlier and middle years she was the BEST! She sang very difficult roles maybe too soon in her earlier years, while the others wouldn’t go near many of those roles because they felt they weren’t ready for them and most didn’t sing the repertoire she sang. As Maria said in an interview, she didn’t have any rivals because the others singers only stayed within certain roles. She sang them all! You just can’t compare these other singers to someone who had the repertoire she so successfully sang!!!
