[Live 1965] Callas and Corelli sing the Act 3 duet and finale of Puccini's Tosca (improved sound)

Музыка

Maria Callas (in one of her last stage performances, as well as in surprisingly excellent voice) and Franco Corelli (in top form!) sing the Act 3 duet and the finale of Giacomo Puccini's Tosca: "Ah! franchigia, Floria Tosca... O dolci mani... Com'è lunga l'attesa". The conductor is Fausto Cleva. This performance took place in New York, 1965. I've cleaned and improved the sound of this in-house recording a bit, and hope you like the result.

    Thank you!!! I love this performance so much. Callas for this stage in her career is fantastic and Corelli and Gobbi are my favorite tenor and baritone. It's perfection and you can feel the emotion in the house. Oh what it must've been like to have BEEN there. And the way her voice breaks on the word "cosi" when she finds Cavaradossi dead is heart breaking

    THIS WAS WELL PUT TOGETHER AND OBVIOUSLY REQUIRED A LOT OF WORK. NO AMOUNT OF TWIDDLING CAN COMPENSATE FOR WHEN SHE WAS NOT ACTUALLY SINGING.....ECCEPT I NOTICE THAT CORELLI WAS MORE DISTANT SOUNDING WHENEVER HE SANG SOLO....AND THE OPPOSITE FOR MARIA. THE ORIGINAL AS I HEARD IT WAS LOUD AND CLEAR......CORELLI YOU COULD HAVE HEARD IN BOSTON ...THE ORCHESTRA DEMONSTRATED VIVID PASSAGES THAT NORMALLY YOU WOULD NOT HAVE NOTICED...AND THE ODD NOTE RISING UP FROM MARIA AT THE CLIMAXES. THIS RESULT IS NOTHING SHORT OF A MIRACLE.

    She was in very good voice here but in spite of her vocal "problems" she did a great performance. She even manage to give an impresive for this time high C# at 1:36. (It supose to be a C) but when Callas is not in good voice, where others dont reach the note, she even go higher!! :p lol!!

    I understand the nostalgia of fans, but there is a huge hole in the middle of Callas’s voice. And the C - oh my. Corelli, who was two years older than Callas, is in his incomparable prime.

If we praise the performance, we praise it in the context of the decline. We don't need your shady comments.
