Their's duet is the best ever. I like the voice of Montserrat for not only its technique possibilities but for its beauty, passion and of caurse for her manner of performance.
At this point, Caballe had been singing professionally for more than thirty years. I think Caballe and Horne's voices blend so beautifully. Sutherland and Caballe are currently tied as my favorite sopranos.
Twee giganten van de opera. Prachtig. Ik vind Marilyn Horne de beste mezzosopraan die er is geweest. En nu geeft ze les in de Music Academy of the West.
Funny you say that, because she did consider learning Norma and she almost performed Semiramide. After singing Norma's entrance she said she felt like she just finished an entire opera. No Normas for her. As far as Semiramide, she was schedulued to sing a concert version of it, but had to withdraw as she was pregnant. She was replaced by Caballe (mid 60s I think). Glad you like her so much. As you can tell Ms Horne is my favorite singer of all time. Fantastic singer, teacher and person.
@BeauTenor That was in 1960 I believe at San Francisco after she sang it in Germany. I have a recording of her singing Brunehilda's immolation from the early 70s. She still has plenty of voice left at age 76, though she no longer sings classical music and rarely sings in public.
There's a 'complete' performance (audio & video) with these two. It's fabulous. Yes- here it's a little late. Listen to the other one. It is fanfukintastic. Trust me. Would I lie to you?
Don't you just have to love Montserrat Caballe? She was interviewed after she recorded "Barcelona" with Freddy Mercury and she said all the young Queen fans were asking: "Who is the fat lady who screams so much?" lol
haha she still hasnt retired, that was 20 years ago, shes 75 now i believe, and still performing. I dont think she sings intricate coloratura roles like this anylonger, however.
You don't have to be in the opera world to like something or not. And I'm not so sure if my ear is so untrained if I started learning classical piano at 3.5 years old and was in the ballet world (where they like classical music) all my life. Please listen to the Devia/Podles version on You Tube and let me know what you think.
I am looking for the first aria sang by Ms. Caballe on this Austrian/Swiss/German production with her and Marilyn Horne. Please could you tell me what the first aria was entitled. Please, please
I just have to wonder if going through Marliyn's head is "GOD, I miss Joan!!" Yes, Caballe was good in her prime, but nobody beats Sutherland in this role -- let alone the perfect harmonizing she and Horne did!
No matter what they did, no mattter how they sang...they are two living legends.
Their's duet is the best ever. I like the voice of Montserrat for not only its technique possibilities but for its beauty, passion and of caurse for her manner of performance.
I read "Not giving their best".... this was at 1990... Caballé with more than 30 years of career and 57 years of age. They are wonderful!
PERFECTION EXISTS!!!!!!! ARE THEY HUMAN? THE GIFT OF THE CENTURY!
I love to see them, and to hear. For ears, eyes and heart!
At this point, Caballe had been singing professionally for more than thirty years. I think Caballe and Horne's voices blend so beautifully. Sutherland and Caballe are currently tied as my favorite sopranos.
Are you kidding? As per the biography, Casta Diva, there was hardly a time in her long lasting career that she wasn’t singing somewhere!
Debbie Johnson I’m not sure I understand the tone of your comment. You seem to be correcting me, but in regards to what I’m not sure.
jrosings1 I’m sorry. I think I directed my comment to the wrong person. Sorry again, jrosing.
I put on my Airpods, I close my eyes and I feel like I'm in heaven... Marvelous also in "Giorno d'orrore".
Что за девчата были! что за артисты! Золото.
Two great voices.......👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶
Montserrat Caballé is superb. The best performance of Sermiramide's duet
@@lemgull7865 No, it's not.
Fight nicely girls
😎😎😎

Check out thé one by Caballé ans S. Verrett

Horne is excellent with outstanding, unique voice
Horne is cool too and a very nice lady as Caballé’ . They are friends and very close in age.
Marylin Horne Grande Arsace ❤
Marilyn* but yes - very true ❤

baritonebynight Yes, Norma is a Tour de Force. I can see why she said no.

I agree
meraviglia del creato

I love her humor
She was so darling
She certainly did began as a soprano and actually sang soprano arias until the early 1970s, though she stopped singing soprano roles in the mid 1960s.
haha she still hasnt retired, that was 20 years ago, shes 75 now i believe, and still performing. I dont think she sings intricate coloratura roles like this anylonger, however.
She has sang spanish zarzuelas 80 years old. Love it!

credo che the best duet of Semiramide is Sutherland-Horne prima del Caballe-.Horne
I just have to wonder if going through Marliyn's head is "GOD, I miss Joan!!" Yes, Caballe was good in her prime, but nobody beats Sutherland in this role -- let alone the perfect harmonizing she and Horne did!
What a disrespectful comment.
@@theonlygoodlookinghabsburg2081 You’ll be just fine, dear. 😘
@@ChrisStockslager After listening to Caballe? Damn right I will.
Who is this conductor?
Nicola Rescigno Conductor from Maria Callas
Montserrat kissed him💋👄
Very nice rendition. Surpassed only by Horne/Sutherland and Horne/Anderson.
Кто бы не любил МЕРИЛИН и сеньору Кабалье...
@adballet obviously you haven't been in the opera world long enough to obtain a trained ear. Give it another decade and try again
Camaraderie
М.Хорн вместе с Дж.Сазерленд исполняли гамоничнее Семерамиду..
cuanto trabajo
I don't like it. Caballe sounds too heavy and the highs to strindent. Doesn't seem agile either.
I like Devia and Podles in it.
Nor manners, for any matter.
Try not to be patronizing next time.
Unpleasant.
This duet, it's better singed bu Sutherland and Horne.
No, it's not.
@@weloveicecream2281 no way!!!!
Both not giving her best, but a little worse Horne than Caballe.
Caballé sounds like she should have stopped siging Rossini at this point!
Caballe was officially too old to sing Rossini here.
You wish! Her voice was still stunning here. Check your ears.
By the judgement of the Official Rossini Age Council???
😎😎😎
.....smacks of Mister Opera pablum 😁
Caballé was only 2 years older than Horne.
