Listen to her perfect eveness of tone from top to bottom. It all sounds like one register.

My opera loving Mom adored Lily Pons. She was on TV back in the day...and our yellow cocker spaniel, Wendy, sang with her, trying as hard as she could to modulate her voice to match Ms. Pons trills. We didn't have the heart to stop her as Wendy too was clearly a fan. (She only sang with the best singers, and preferred Coloraturas.)

Beautiful both visually and vocally, an amazing achievement. I wish |'d been at that performance - ah well!

Parece una Ave presiosa su voz ❤ saludos cordiales desde México😊😊

there is a little brain in the human voice .....a little soul and when it speaks .....it silences everyone

if there was ever perfection in coloratura soprano this gets pretty close - thoroughly enjoyable - Lily Pons is simply marvellous- just mind blowing how she sustains that final note to perfection!

戦後，カーネギーホールと言う映画を観てリリーポンスのファンに成りました❣️スタイルも良く透明感のコロラチュラソプラノ❣️💓💓🍀🍀

This film clip is in great condition, clear image and sound. Am enjoying seeing this singer for the first time. Thanks for posting.

Did they film entire operas back then for distribution in art-film houses?

EIN SINGENDER TRAUM

Bae ro na must be watch this video

Is this film Ai enhanced?

This sounds so weird, with the tempo all crazed…

Nope. Sabine Devieilhe has ruined this for everyone else, and she sang it LIVE. Her pianissimo is like nobody’s I’ve ever heard.

Ez rettenesen rossz 😢👎😱💀

No black people in the audience?😵‍💫
