I am researching the date of this performance. It is lovely to hear the nice feedback from people who post regularly but quite another matter when people only pipe up when I have made a possible error...pity!
This is truly amazing! Thank you so much for sharing these treasures with us! Your dear Mum would be so proud!
This is amazing!!!!! I heard your mom at the Met as you know and she was first rate and thrilling!!!!!!
Just fabulous, the great Rita 👍 👌 😀 👏 😊
A great singer. Fabulous 👏👏👏
Thank you for posting this: an astonishing performance, everything you could hope for from a Brunnhulde and more. Never mind the blazingly wonderful conducting!
Dearest Reggie....he demanded excellence AND HE GOT IT!!! I watched a documentary recently on UA-cam and he said that he thought he has never quite got Walkure right. Personally I think he got it all, right! Take the play out of this Immolation. That break at the end. It takes excellence to get that right and be able to control the orchestra and to bring the orchestra back in juuuuuuust before the last note has faded in the ears of the listener. Oh I think he got The Ring right and I would argue even with him on that one :D
Sensationnel !!!
This is good 😊
If anyone today came close to this…
Her spot on attack on the high notes for example.
Could your date be a year out? - My Goodall listing has the following
March 6, 1971 Twilight of the Gods (Coliseum BBC broadcast)
Hunter Remedios Grant Bailey Hammond-Stroud.
It's not from the broadcast. It is from a dress rehearsal.
the broadcast was in 1971, there fore the dress rehearsal must have been before the broadcast.@@ritahunterlafavorita
BTW...glad you enjoyed the video
I have reached to ENO. Not an easy thing to get an answer from them because everything is behind an EMAIL wall and no one can talk to anyone there anymore. I have asked them to provide me with complete cast lists, dates or EVERY performance that my Mother was involved in. Getting an answer will be another matter. I am still waiting for the to provide me with details on something I uploaded 7 months ago and they still haven't contacted me. Wish I could go there myself. I would be hard to push aside and ignore if I turned up on their doorstep LOL Incidentally, I have been trying to get in contact with you regarding your video "The Valkyrie Act 2 Wotan's Monologue SW Oxford 1971 Godfrey Hunter". I actually found a newspaper article that supports that they sang together. I have also been working on sorting out the pitch/speed of the performance you posted as it isn't quite right. Possibly due to it originally being on a reel to reel.
only Gertrud Grob Prandl equalled Rita in all sizes...
