STRONG, AND SWEET, BEAUTIFUL THRILLS, LONG STANDING NOTES...........GALLI CURCI THE ITALIAN NIGHTINGALE.LA SUPREMA NVIQUEZ
Her duets with Schipa are among the greatest ever recorded on disc -still unmatched almost a century later and probably will never be equalled let alone eclipsed .
Thanks, Doug. Lovely transfer. The voice has presence!
Thank YOU, Father Cornelius!
superba
De sokszor hallottam a rádióban, még gyerekkormban ezt az áriát. Édesanyám nagy kedvence volt az énekesnő.
Beautiful
The great tallents never dies !!!
Leccion de como se cantaba de forma perfecta. Para futuras aspirantes. ..
Her voice floated in the air magically, but she sometimes had intonation problems, her final high E is flat, or it might be the recording
That was purposeful
Her final E-flat is perfectly in tune. Her intonation is flawless or as flawless as any soprano can be.
@@DavidSmith-kc4hz The final note in the Bell Song is an E, not E flat.
@@MrRicksStudio Hi Rick. That came out wrongly as I was referring to the writer who said about her E was flat and somehow I typed E-flat. I know not how that occurred.
Sad what happened to her voice though :-(
Here is an example of where truly wonderful singing is undercut by the muddy and idiosyncratic quality of an acoustically-recorded orchestra.
Alas... so.it.seems.to.go.... but all said and done unable to disagree with Lyndon Blaylock's comment (see below).
I guess, I've just become accustomed to the sound, but I actually like the acoustically recorded orchestra. No, it doesn't sound like a modern recording, but it has a charm all its own.
@@lyndonblaylock6165 I too find that it does not spoil the voice of this wonderful famous singer.
