The bel canto sopranos are my favorites (the baritones, too). This rendition of "Casta Diva" is so exquisite it makes me weep. Such lyrical beauty, with great depth and complexity. Love you always dear Montserrat Caballe. Thank you.
Para o mundo erudito, ela era considerada, e com razão, "La Superba". Mas, para mim, ela será sempre "a veludosa". E os aplausos da plateia nesta gravação histórica que o digam...
Intricately beautiful and complex, what a wonderful, skillful, and clean rendition of an already amazingly composed aria. I am taken aback by the dynamics of this performance. Personally, I think this is better than Maria Callas’s version, perhaps even better than Joan Sutherland’s version, which is another one of my favorites. It’s cleaner than Callas’s, with more control. Her timbre’s light, but her voice is so powerful; yet, she restrained herself on the high notes, and her sustained note on the end coloratura was stunningly formed as it turned into an almost echoey ribbon - gorgeous. Wow.
Hubert Joseph, Jr. I have always put this recording in 1974 at Orange, France above both Sutherland's and Callas's. The real video is a must see, her high priestess shroud floating on in the wind as her voice soars with such divine clarity. It's phenomenal. The DVD of the filmed opera is an absolute must-have.
well... the thing is that we cannot compare Callas with Caballe... they are totally different. Apples and pears cannot be compared. They are fruits, though.... But they are both the best!
La vi en directo con su marido Bernabé Martí, Bianca Berini, en el Teatro Principal de Zaragoza, siendo yo muy joven. Todos SUBLIMES. CABALLÉ era lo mejor de lo mejor y la he visto en numerosas óperas. Descanse en paz con sus seres queridos. Gracias maestra!!!.
I hear the call for the Silver Goddess and the prayer for peace in this chaotic world. This is truly a beautiful performance and by non other than the prima donna Montserrat Caballe, Whom in my opinion is the rarest of superior sopranos. Thanks to the wonderful lirica or opera in two acts by Vincenzo Bellini with libretto by Felice Romani after the play Norma, ou L'infanticide (Norma, or The Infanticide) by Alexandre Soumet.
Magnífica interpretació. Si es que no es pot comparar aquesta meravellosa música amb la d'avui. No dic que sigui dolenta, però crec que davant d'aquesta preciositat no li pot ni descordar-li una sabata
Fantastic. No other soprano could match the beauty of her voice, her colors and her control. Callas' s voice was too edgy for my taste, Caballé's was pure silk. Callas was the singer of the people, Caballe of the Gods.
I've heard several voices singing this opera , to my opinion, she is the best, better than Callas, more better, magic voice, Montserrat forever!! Silver voice.
Everything is in place. The pianissimosinging are divine, and one can hear every note. Never too much voice. La Divina Superba! Rest in peace, Montserrat ❤
La voce della Caballè si avvicina a quella della Callas, la considero una via di mezzo rispetto alle voci della Tebaldi e Sutherland che sono più vellutate
These were the best years of Caballe. She sings beautiful and so velvety in every note of the aria. But I believe that if we would have the opportunity to listen to Maria Callas in her best years (mid 40's) the question of who is the best Norma would so easily answered. There is no doubt that Callas owns the role, even Caballe said it, she admired Maria and continued with the path she started in order to bring back to life the bel canto.
Maria Callas gives here the best performance of Casta Diva. If I am not mistaken there is another recording of her when she was younger and it was even better. Being at a later age it was less good. There are performers today like Aida Gariffullina and Anna Netrebko and more. But in my opinion Maria Callas was and remains the best performer of this aria
The best Norma......ever!!!!!Love Montserrat so much and for ever!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Spanisches Juwel💎💎💎💎💎💎
The divine voice of all time!
Yes, you better believe it....!!!! I agree 1000%......!!!!
Ninguém cantou ou catará Casta Diva como Montserrat, seu pianíssimo é incomparável e sua dramaticidade abraça a alma.
Боже мой! Какая красавица была!
Thanks Monserrat Caballé for blessing all of our lives with this piece. The most beautiful rendition I've ever heard.
Casta diva.....chaste goddess....by Bellini.....Sung to perfection by the ultimate diva.
Неповторимая лучшая Норма.Браво Монтсеррат !!!
A beautiful angel just kissed my ears and melted my heart! What a woman!!!!!
She was sublime....!!!!

Qué voz más irrepetible. No habrá otra igual .Su voz embruja, relaja y aporta una enorme sensación de paz
Descanse en Paz
Às vezes penso que a verdadeira "casta diva" da música erudita era mesmo ela, "la superba". Obrigado.
Purement Divin 🙏🏻🕯💖. Que d' émotions. Merci ❤️.

How I always remember Montserrat...
A portamento that tickles the soul.
Hommage à cette grande Soprano....merci

This is divine! We have always preferred Montserrat above Callas, in everything!
Orange, France 1974. That's my answer to the where would you go if you could travel back in time question.
Great Voice!!!!!!!
Hubert Joseph, Jr. expresses my feelings exactly. I listened to this recording on Spanish radio and wept
Simply magnificent Montserrat 💖💝💘

Que voz más angelical!. No me extraña que Fredy, se fijara en ella.
Что значит заметил? Она не бумажка на обочине дороги.

Why to compare?
@@carlnuernberg3273 Because Cabalie was the best soprano spinto for this Aria
Wie schön! Himmlisch!
Voce divina.am spus bine prea prea frumos frumos cînta acest cîntec soprana monserrat.genial genial cînta acest cîntec.
Spania a avut o mare artistă pe fata pământului.doamna
Monserrat este favorita mea
Soprana din lume.este regina mea.
THE BEST SINGER FOR THIS ROLE EVER! Bravissima.
Rodrigo no the best was Elena Souliotis second to none
The role belongs to Maria Callas. She is best Norma ever.
@@MrAleflores83 never
This is human experience in voice.

Incompatível com este mundo cheio de coisas feias e dolorosas, está agora com Deus...

There are performers today like Aida Gariffullina and Anna Netrebko and more. But in my opinion Maria Callas was and remains the best performer of this aria
She did not ever have enough strong voice for this aria.
