Great and most enjoyable voice to listen to , all my compliments

To think she is 55 years old here is absolutely phenomenal and she was still able to sing at 65 like this too

The INCOMPARABLE Madame Mary Violet LEONTYNE PRICE!! Still with us in this realm of existence at the DIVINE AGE of 97 years old!! What a BLESSING of LONGEVITY!!

I witnessed her farewell 'AIDA' and will never forget seeing her fall to her knees, as tears fell from her eyes and roses covered the stage.

Esa ópera Aída de su despedida la tuve primero en Betamax y luego VHS. Qué afortunado de haber estado allí.

We will neither see nor hear her like again.

Indeed. You are so correct.

Short comment: The BEST spinto soprano in history of the opera. That's it!❤

All throughout and capping the rendition: that beautiful voice soaring and spinning above the Staff, that mean gaze, that powerful stance, and work that cape she did!😂 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Happy 97th birthday! Long live the Queen!

The amount of times I have watched this particular performance. Without exaggeration at least 100 times.

Ms Price came to SING on this evening! Beautiful woman! Astounding talent and glorious presence!!

El final de esta aria es insuperable, ninguna soprano le llega al nivel de la Price. Lo siento mucho por las grandes de la ópera, Callas, Renata, Tebaldi, Monseratt pero el final que hace Price las aplasta a todas, bravo ; cada vez que escucho el final digo que hasta ahora absolutamente nadie la supera.

No solo el final del aria, sino todo el recorrido. El fraseo, legato, fiato, y todo lo que termine en "ato" es insuperable. Ella fue la perfecta Leonora.

Good Heavens! Simply hair rising... her closing "maledizione" is unrivalled!! Grande grandissima Leonessa... an immense applause!

Magnificent.. absolutely magnificent

Thank you so much, Mister Verdi, for having written this incredible aria specially for the phenomenal Leontyne Price !

My God!!! It's funny that she got me once and she gets it again whenever I hear her. Her voice is a natural phenomenon. No one has a voice like her, you will recognize her as soon as she opens her mouth. In my opinion, she is the greatest of lyrical sopranos. My beloved Maria and Renata, you will have to forgive me. You're right behind her. Leontyne is my first opera love. The first woman in your life that you either hate, kill or love forever. The latter worked for me. This terrible woman has changed my life more than anyone else ... by her singing. Endless admiration.

Same here! I went to see her in a recital as a student, and fell madly, passionately in love. On my mantle is a signed photograph that shall never move as long as I am alive. She really started something for me.

Voce meravigliosa e suadente che ti entra nell anima.Meravigliosa Leontyne Price.Col grande Jimmy Levine!!! Grazie di ❤👍

Mi Dios, Yahvé, Como Se Puede Cantar Así.......

I came to listen to this after reading comments made on the Met's latest production of La Forza with Lise Davidsen. Leontyne's rendition is superb.👍

La escucho y la escucho y es incomparable❤

Those last 30 seconds of the video are remarkable. That thunderous voice ! It’s as if the heavens opened up and the gods applauded.

It gave me chills

The unmatched glory of that voice and the brilliant artistry of this amazing woman, are simply sublime. What a stunning performance! That imperious look on her face at that staggering end of the aria, and the thunderous applause from the audience say it all. BRAVISSIMA!!!

I could listen to 5'40 - 5'59 forever. That flash of her eyes as she comes off that last spectacular (and spectacularly sustained) final note just says' Yes, audience. I nailed it.' The the slightest hint of a smile as flicks her right hand across her torso and turns to her conductor. I almost expected James Levine to fall at her feet. What a joy for them both to create that.

I love her dramatization even in a concert. She's playing the role!

Maravillosa voz e interpretación.

Such musical integrity and clarity. Combined with the passion of her soul. Thanks also, Verdi, for writing this. ❤️ PS notice on the last note, she doesn't cut it off, it's as if she empties her soul in her cry to God.

Never heard applause like that. Love it

Happy birthday 97 on February 10, 2024

No need to comment on the glory of Leontyne Price's voice. If you can't discern that, you should have your hearing checked. Seldom does one acknowledge her stage deportment and her attire, both of which are a lost art these days. Ms Price knew how to "dress for the occasion " and she knew how to carry her stature. Every aspect of her artistry is evident in this stunning video.

I coached with David Garvey when I was a graduate at UT..he remarks to me how Leontyne new all the all the angles of her presentation physically and vocally.

Brava!!!!

Great Leontyne Price, BRAVO ! Now in February 2022: Congratulations on your 95th birthday! 🌹🌼🌷 All the best for you! 🌺 .

None like her. Thank you, God, for allowing me to have experienced her live.

Une fois de plus, lors de la même soirée, le triomphe de la voix et l'adoration de LA diva prima assoluta !

One of the most thrilling performances of this amazing aria! Leontyne, you are a legend. Thank you to Onegin65 for posting.

Divina y perfecta interpretación.

Happy Birthday 🎈🎁🎊🎂🎉 i love u so much!!Diva assoluta a very happy 95th birthday❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩!

Happy 95th, Ms. Price. You have given us sooooooooooooooooo much!!!! Blessings upon you!

Such a gracious and beautiful artist. Her singing is just so rich and stunning.

💐🌹💐♥️Bless Ms. Price and the day of her birth.🌹

Incredible 👏🏿❤️

Tebaldi...Callas...Milanov...sadly none of these sopranos had the opportunity to be recorded at the HEIGHT of their powers like this so we are left to consider ourselves SO FORTUNATE to hear such quality video of that which may have been matched but certainly unsurpassed

It's a joy knowing Leontyne is still with us. 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️God bless her

Fabulous!!!! My favorite version from her! She is just phenomenal!

The best of best! 💖💐💖 My favorite Leonora ever! 🙏🏻

I just got scolded for dueting with price!! Here I am deep into here performance and..... "You can't sing opera in here!" The Blasted @#&$#!

Increíble. Impresionante ❤️💕

Simply perfection!

Takes my breath away

Fantastic pacing on the last note which let her put a final gust of emotion into it after a long duration and finish the note with full intention, which made it so that even if she had sung the piece badly before that (which she of course didn't), it would have made enough of a final impression to warrant all the applause.

una veu fabulosa. no em canso de sentir-la

The best of the best.

BRAVA!

I aspire to sing like her,she was the best!

Que linda!!!!!
