Fanfukintastic!!!!!
I saw James King in München at the Bayrische Staatsoper in 1979 sing the Kaiser in Die Frau ohne Schatten. From the fourth tier, the Falke aria absolutely blew the roof off. Humongous and gorgeous voice.
FANTASTISCH
Due rasoi, beautiful . Best ever remain Callas and Fedora Barbieri
make some talk with him at Vienna stage door.....
Absolutely incredible.
Bravaaaaa
Beau!!!
One technical reason for the longevity of Sutherland's vocal brilliance, as every singing teacher would know, is her extraordinary breath control which allows her to float her sound in what appears to an effortless manner. The onset of her notes is always supported by a column of air, so the notes form beautifully, as if out of nowhere.
If I recall correctly, she used to say "breathing is the basis of all singing," and it should be done as "breathe, control, support." She had no time for singers who didn't breathe properly. She didn't teach Pavarotti how to breathe, but she did help him approve his technique.
She and Sills actually spoke to each other? (Sutherland is in exceptionally good voice for the period.)
Joan was not a diva, and to my knowledge did not speak ill of any singer. Marilyn Horne stated that in all those years and productions together, she and Joan "never had a cross word with each other.". She was not the jealous type, and why would she be? She had the greatest voice of any singer in recorded history, so who was there to be jealous of? She loved Callas, Tebaldi, Flagstad, Caballe, Horne, Pavarotti, Domingo, Kraus and Aragall.
Perhaps the greatest heldentenor of the last 70 years and a man whose gentle Christianity informed his great art. How much we miss him in our lives.
Fantástica!!
Great!
He has been almost forgotten today, even though he was one of the greatest tenors of all time!
Why transpose down?!
She’s 56 here
Joan Sutherland. Anna Moffo makes me cry because of the beauty of her voice. Joan Sutherland makes me cry because she is vocal perfection!
the ideal helden tenor sound. Saw him at the "old Met'
Lucky Bastard 😊
To the open air....no mic, no fake, no forced gesture...REAL technique from a TRUE GREAT soprano. Divine and missed.
And what a fantastic bash was it not. What a voice. Beautiful, heavenly. One cannot get enough of listening to her. Brilliant pianist.
This is Voice!
In great form here. Gorgeous as usual.. you can tell she was disappointed in the little tweakee pookee at the end of the last note. Still.. la stupenda!
The entire performance is fabulous but oh, the beauty of Joan Sutherland's trills!!!!!
Fantastic!
Stunning performance, in her last decade as a singer. There will never be another Sutherland.
What a big voice
WOW.
i keep returning to this performance which I find profoundly moving and exciting.
That's quite a bash! Thank you for sharing this wonderful clip ...
She was THE ONE AND ONLY !!! I'm so glad I got to see her twice, once in opera and once in recital.
I only heard her once, in her third last performance of Les Huguenots in Sydney. I met afterwards and told her it was the first time I had heard her sing. She said “Well, you left your run a little late Dear!” She was just so wonderful.
My God.. thank you for gifting this remarkable woman with this voice...and for trusting dear Joan to use it to bring sheer joy to all who experience it.
A confronto laCaballe' la batte senza confronto,pur essendo la grandeSUTHERLAND
Non ci pare proprio.
SUTHERLAND can sing her butt off and no one can come anywhere near her in today's world SHE WILL BE MISSED
Btw, the woman at 6:23 is Gwyneth’s daughter. Jones is my desert island singer, although I acknowledge her issues with scooping and tremolo, because she always gives 200% and is endlessly fascinating. The comments here are funny - Sutherland never once sang Turandot on stage, and she probably couldn’t have; she never had to scream over a huge orchestra in her repertoire. And Nilsson has her vocal problems too, especially in later years; she was either flat or sharp, often out of tune. Hey, they’re human too. As for Gwyneth’s agility, she was a marvelous Verdi singer in her early days, and she could’ve given all the “Verdi ladies” a run for their money, if she’d stayed with it. But she took the Wagner/Strauss path, and ultimately paid a price for it.
Superlativa , grandisima Joan.
She killed it.....
And quite a successful “bash” it was, dear Dame Joan!
Modern sopranos can never compare to Sutherland. She was and is Prima Donna Assoluta
Amazing.
I just LOVE this woman!! She makes the rafters shake! I get pure enjoyment from her incredible instrument. (She and Joan Sutherland were born on the same day....lol....the two great vocal "instrument " opera singers)!
I'm impressed with the FLOW of breath.....she really had a COMMAND of her instrument!
I'm shocked, a delight shock with her voice! (According to Norma's biography, 1981 is the correct year)
Stunning
Stunning a special singer.
Listen to Sutherland and Lewis singing Si vendetta, tremenda vendetta from Rigoletto in January 1986.
OMG who is this woman?? She is gorgeous!!!
Please post the whole concert, if possible. Kohn a great accompanist and Sutherland La Stupenda always.
This represents the end of her career; the last years were variously marred by stretches of (for her) 'old-lady' singing. She had (rightly) wanted to retire earlier than she did...but Bonynge had disagreed. Sutherland = divine
You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
@@machovoce6826 OH YES. He fucking knows what he's talking about. What he says is the pure truth.
The one and only! Fabulous accompaniment!
La Stupenda!
The Incredible Hulk strikes again! Her French is not bad at all; but, with Sutherland, it is the gushing coloratura that one listens to rather than diction or even high notes, beautiful as they are. And her voice has such a solid middle, which is the starting point for a well-balanced, healthy vocal mechanism. Robert Merrill classified Sutherland as a dramatic soprano d'agilita, or what we might call a dramatic coloratura. Sills was essentially a lyric coloratura although she pushed her voice to be more dramatic, which, as she herself admitted, probably cost her at least 10 years of vocal longevity.
