Mad Scene from Hamburg?

- Joan performed Lucia in Mar-Apr 1971 at Hamburg State Opera, alongside Domingo's & Raimondi's Edgardo. Professionally, doesn't exist any recording. However, there's a fallacy about an in-house recording in which this Mad Scene comes from. Now I ask you, 'care compagne' if in your opinion this excerpt is truly from Hamburg season?

Whichever performance it was, the singing was certainly magnficent!
Bravíssima 2000x!!!!!!
The Miracle. Saw her in concert plus Puritani and Anna Bolena.
Everything they say about her is true. The in concert performance when she sang the high C in the cabaletta from Norma I felt the roof shake.
Lucky you!!!
Fabulous. Thank you.
You should upload the whole Hamburg performance, or at least what exists
If you have the whole thing, just check if Kurt Moll sang Raimondo. He interpolated a low F# just before the chorus bit of 'Dalle Stanze'. He's only one of two basses I know to have done it, and the other one is still singing and in his 50s, so it can't have been he who did it. Moll's Raimondo was only ever recorded in Hamburg alongside Dame Joan, so if that low F# is in this recording, then you can be assured it was in Hamburg.
*Thank you, there's a low F*

Surely, if this is the Hamburg, you'll be able to tell when Domingo opens his mouth. He has one of the most recognizable voices in Opera.
Thanks so much for posting. Certainly, it is her early 1970s darker voice. I have never quite heard at the end of the cabaletta the cymbals like that and the baritone doesn't sound like Quilico who sang in the 1973 Lucias at Covent Garden, although it is rather muffled. I always thought that there was a "pirate" of the Hamburg performance. The sound is pretty good listening on headphones. Thanks once again. Do you have the entire performance? I gather in Hamburg they performed the Wolf's Crag scene unlike a lot of her performances - it was always cuts at Covent Garden regrettably.
A Hogbin I know Joan didn’t do the whole run, and said to Domingo that she was glad to be leaving as he was getting too good with each performance.
I first worked with her in 72 and this is the voice I fell in love with.
@@highbaritone How fascinating. May I ask in what capacity? According to Norma Major's book she sang 13 Lucias (that sounds like too many to me) and Domingo and Raimondi shared Edgardo. I heard 2 performances of her astounding 1985 London Lucias with Bergonzi and cherish them still as probably 2 of the greatest evenings of my life. I do wish I'd heard her in the 60s and 70s though.
