At her cry of "O l'infanie" I was shouting. YOU GO GIRL!!!!
At "anatema sua voi"...I was already screaming. BRAVA BRAVA BRAVA
Listen to that cheering audience...Magnificent!!!!
Fun fact: Christa Ludwig only sang Amneris at the Metropolitan Opera three times. Once in 1960, the other two in 1970. All three had Lucine Amara as Aida.
I love Amara but Aida was not her role.
@@BestOperaMoments I was at this performance and remember it well. Thank you for sharing it with us!!!
By today's standards somewhat peculiar that the year before that 1960 Amneris Ludwig debued as Cherubino and in the 1960 season sang Octavian prior to the Amneris. I would love to have heard how she sounded in the role in 1960. She didn't have the big guns like Simionato or Cossotto or the fire of Bumbry and Verrett but she was always an intelligent and musical singer and an absolute joy to listen to
