    I understand there not being enough time for Dame Joan to perform (or even record) every great opera but I do wish she had done
    a recording of The Best of Puccini .Her recording of “Turandot” is a revelation and her Mimi, Musetta and Butterfly can only be dreamed
    about.Thank you for this wonderful posting.Leontyne Price was always my no.1 Tosca but Joan Sutherland is right up there with her.💕

    Beautifully done. She sings the aria as it should be done... a moment of introspection, a prayer, subdued with no hystrionics. She learned much from Callas. Gobbi is wonderful. It is no accident that he was chosen for her only outing as Tosca. Brivissimi.

      Non, la Sutherland n'a pas beaucoup appris de la Callas. Elle était elle même une grande créatrice, et avait une bien plus belle voix que la Callas. La Callas n'a jamais été la référence pour aucun personnage. La Sutherland a été une des plus grandes cantatrices de tous les temps. Plus je l'écoute et plus je l'aime. Et puis elle avait une versatilité formidable. Elle avait le talent de s'adapter à tous les répertoires. Mais étant contemporaine de la Callas, elle subit le malheur d'être comparée constamment à elle. Quand reviendra-t-on enfin au sens commun de prendre comme repère d'autres cantatrices qui ne soient pas la Callas?

    Never knew this existed. It's too bad she never performed the role complete in a staged performance. For her it would have been entirely within her grasp, though possibly repeated performances could have compromised her fabulous bel canto technique. But for whatever it's worth, she's very involved here, sounds flawless, and she's singing with the best Scarpia in the business.

    • @detectivefiction3701
      @detectivefiction3701 6 років тому +4

      Personally, the role I wish Joan Sutherland had performed complete is Verdi's Luisa Miller...It's interesting how good Tito Gobbi sounds here. Even though he's older than he was when he sang Scarpia with Maria Callas, his tone actually sounds better here, imo.

    • @wotan10950
      @wotan10950 6 років тому +5

      According to Sutherland’s biography, Gobbi begged her to sing Tosca onstage with him. He thought she was perfect. Bonynge wouldn’t hear of it though. He felt that Puccini was wrong for her voice at that stage.

    • @YortOK
      @YortOK 6 років тому +3

      Gobbi actually sang Scarpia, and Falstaff in Melbourne and Adelaide in 68-69, so maybe he was trying to lure her to do it there with him in her home country.

    I was prepared for her to be dreadful in this role, but I was surprised how much I liked her. She's very vulnerable, and I like the soaring voice. The downside is a lack of temperament and poor diction, especially the avoidance of the "ee" sound. "Vissi d'arte" becomes "Vassi d'arte."

    • @Eiswirth1
      @Eiswirth1 5 років тому +11

      I clearly hear "Veesee." She had what she described as a "round sound," which assisted in producing her untouchable bel canto singing. She had the greatest voice God ever gave a singer, IMO; whatever she may have lacked in clarity was more than made up for in vocal splendor, of which no other soprano has ever come close.

      When singing with open throat EE has to remain open and in the throat otherwise voice placement is compromised and you end up sounding shrill and slip into squeezed nasal tones.

      Notice how Sutherland tower over Gobbi in this live performance. Callas did not tower over Gobbi when they sang Tosca and Scarpia in their live video.
      This is not meant to say Callas was not the greatest Tosca in history. But to note that Sutherland had at least as large a voice as Callas.

  • @fan2jnrc

    Beautiful voice, Joan’s here. Even the diction is ok. But her sound is just so polished and kind of guarded/cushioned/filtered; Puccini/verismo is supposed to be more about direct, raw emotion. Also, temperament/characterization-wise, this is not a Tosca I would ever in a million years believe could actually stab a man to death. Wish somebody could have pushed Joan more out of her comfort zone with that divine vocal gift she had...

    Poi magari quelli che storcono il naso...applaudono "le cantanti fischietto di adesso" che sanno usare i Microfoni , ma non mi scandalizzo...all'ultima recita alla Scala di Tosca ero alla Prima...e mi è molto piaciuta....,nell'insieme un ottimo lavoro dove ognuno ha dato il meglio di sè...e sapendo che erano indagati come per una radioscopia...non è facile...il mondo va avanti...e Menomale.

    It is obvious here that Sutherland is responding to the challenge of Gobbi's spectacular Scarpia and that she is being helped by whoever is conducting [it is clearly not the second rate Bonynge]. With the right cast, conductor and director she could have been a fine [not great] Tosca. Her physical expression at the Quanto/il Prezzo is fine and her Vissi is also very good.
