Sin duda la mejor representación de Norma que hubo en España el siglo XX pasado. La insuperable Montserrat Caballé en el rol protagónico difícilmente se repetirá en su tierra natal. Eran tiempos cuando la ópera se representaba con lo mejor de lo mejor del momento (la creme de la crema) y no con cantantes que no llegaban ni a los tobillos como ocurre en la actualidad. Esto es una joya para conservarla en vídeo. Un millón de gracias al canal de Machikokyo Kyosan por subir esta rareza de representación operística!!! Bravo !!!
Dear Caballe, at 45 years of vocal age, just staggers the senses. She was a tremendous achievement and deserved as the greatest 'Diva' of Spinto-Soprano holding Bel Canto at the highest quality in the 20th Century. I feel rich hearing not only her vocal ability, but how she could cut the mustard to perform her vulnerable nature as human being within the 'personal thoughtless lives to struggle out secrets' as Norma. Without a doubt, a woman who has made her mark for the opera world as DIVA in generous and humble style, she had us experience a transcendence we could not expect.. How she is going to be missed. RIP, Montserrat Caballe. 💖🌹
E Mitch, those were beautiful comments you made regarding the greatness. of Montserrat and her work! I agree with your wonderful assessment and I could have not said it that well! Thank you!
Η Μονσεράτ Καμπαγιέ είναι η μόνη αοιδός όπερας, που όταν τραγουδά δεν χρειάζονται υπότιτλοι. Έχει διάφανη φωνή και εξοχή αρθρωση! Την λατρεύω! Σε 6 μέρες κλείνει ένας χρόνος, από τον θάνατο του κορμιού της! Τα υπόλοιπα θα μας συνοδεύουν για πάντα!
The bel canto repertoire really brings out everything that is superlative about Caballe's vocal art, especially her incredible vocal limpidity. At the right volume in the right range her vocal timbre has a delectability that you can almost taste and smell. This is aside from her famous pianissimi. At her best, Caballe is the shining example of a true vocal virtuoso and one of the greatest exponents of the art of singing.
Magnífica,inmensa,supersonica versión,en mi opinion la mejor que existe en UA-cam,con una Montserrat Caballe formidable y el español tenor dramático Pedro Lavirgen que está a grandísima altura,el mejor de todos los intérpretes,todos estupendos,Bravissimi tutti

Grandissima opera la Norma, le interpreti femminili grandi cantanti e grandi attrici, degnissime di tanta grandezza e delle grandissime Callas e Simionato. Meno grande Pollione!
Anna Attanasio. Il publico italiano a spagnolo dovrebbero essere educati a non applaudere alla fine di ogni aria ma alla fine Di ogni atto. Alla fine di, In mia man alfin tu sei, la povera Caballè è sospesa col coltello in mano aspettando la fine dell’applauso. Norma non è una facile opera per la soprano. Queste interruzioni non aiutano.
Isn’t it hard on the performers when the audience interrupts with applause that holds up the opera for several minutes? I’m sure the performers are flattered, but it seems kind of like an annoyance.
Algo he leído acerca de declaraciones de una de las más grades Sopranos que interpretaron la Opera Norma. María Callas que dijo que en toda su vida ninguna Opera le demandó tantos sacrificios (algo así) sobre los cambios de "Temperamentos" de una soprano, como se los había exigido la Opera Norma de Bellini. (Pido disculpas, pero soy una persona ignorante de todos los temas musicales)
@@stevenlevasee6742 I don't know if you understand Italian. In mia man alfin tu sei... could be translated... " Finally I've got you bastard..." Only Caballet can sing like a very hangry lady...
Va siendo hora de decirlo: Caballé era una gran actriz. Bastante mejor que otras con fama de serlo y, por supuesto, infinitamente mejor que alguna que, aparte de cuatro trinos, tenía la sensibilidad artística de un rodaballo.
@@Antonio-qm3bi Pero si en España lo hemos tenido todo: coloraturas atléticas y fuera de serie las tienes en la insuperable María Galvany, voces dramáticas como una catedral que te clavaban un do sobreagudo sin despeinarse como Gulín. Y en Alemania, Erna Sack le daba mil vueltas a la australiana en trinos y llegando al doble Do sobreagudo.
Aquesta Norma es un exit , i , al Liceu ha passat , igual , jo he estat sempre al cinque pis del Liceu amb el grup que som liceistes , i , .....un exit ❤❤
1:46:47 En ese momento La Caballé demuestra porque fue “La Superba”, una actuación extraordinaria unido a sus grandes cualidades vocales, una mujer extraordinaria (Norma) que se ve orillada a casi matar a sus hijos, Caballé da esa dualidad, entre el amor por su hombre y el amor por sus hijos, aquí vemos que la Norma de Caballé es una mujer, no hablamos de la legendaria Sacerdotisa que creó Rosa Ponselle, hablamos del amor de madre (una mujer como cualquiera), sólo Caballé nos pudo regalar eso... ❤️
Amazing. And not pretentious at all. The choir is really good, too. 45:43 What? A near soundless trill? 46:00 the audience shot. That enthusiasm. Great.
Yes, She was such a pro, but that must have been so difficult. The role is difficult enough without the audience interrupting like that abs making her hold that dagger for so long like that. You are right, Stella!
@@debbiejohnson2789 I am not sure but I think this happened to Benamino Gigli. The first time that he sung in England when he came to the first big aria he belt it out trying to impress the English public. At the end of the aria he paused waiting for the big applause but none came. Dead silence. It took him a bit to regain his composure and carried on singing. Of course at the end of the opera he got the biggest applause ever. But he still couldn’t understand why there was no applause at the end of the aria. When he asked why they explained to him that in England don’t applauds not to disturb the concentration of the singer. Not the done thing...

Che voce metallica ha la Cossotto, ancor più della Caballè! Forse è la registrazione? Ma la Casta Diva di Orange rimane in assoluto la più commovente e coinvolgente di tutta la storia della lirica, superiore anche alla Callas , che è tutto dire! Grazie Montserrat!
Si,anch'io penso che la Casta diva di Orange sia il tributo più alto al belcanto di sempre.La Caballe' lì è stata inarrivabile,nonostante l'amore infinito per Maria Callas,che io considero sempre "fuori concorso",perché infine la Callas per me rappresenta la verità musicale
Credo che la Casta Diva di Mosca sia quasi superiore a quella di Orange. Qui devo dire che la voce della Caballe inizia a suonare "dura". La Cossotto anche a parte dura è spesso calante dal LA in su. Due grandi, ma con l'inizio del declino.
Norma de Bellini , m,agrada , aquesta opera La Cosotto , LaVirgen , la Montserrat Caballe l,ha vist i escoltada al cinque pus del Liceu amb el grup de amics liceistes , tits son perfectes ❤❤
She is fantastic in the last act! And Pedro Lavirgen is the finest, young and naive Pollione. For once not a shouting italian heldentenorm but a real singer.
Pollione non è un personaggio né fine né ingenuo. E non mi sembra che gli italiani possano essere classificati come urlanti o incapaci di cantare. Montserrat divina
Che dice mai dei tenori italiani del XX secolo!!?? Ne rammento solo uno: Franco Corelli, che nel ruolo di Pollione raggiunge vette inarrivabili. C'è la registrazione in CD di Norma con lui e Maria Callas!! Mai più eguagliata in disco, ma pare anche in teatro. Di La Virgen non dico nulla, rispetto il suo impegno e la difficoltà di quella parte per un tenore anche bravo.
There were times in this that they didn't look like they had enough room on the stage. This stage seems a little small. Maybe I'm just comparing it to the space they had at the ampitheatre in Orange, France. The choir and all the principal singers were great, especially Montserrat and Cossotto!
@@xxsaruman82xx87 Cossotto was starting her decline, all her high notes were flat. She definitely didn't have anymore the requirements for belcanto at this stage, but she was a GREAT Adalgisa until the early 1970s and remained a great Verdi mezzo for a while. And she was an unparalleled Amneris and Azucena in her prime.
Although perhaps rarely subtle, I actually think that Cossotto was a great singer in her prime. Unfortunately this is not a good evening for her. In addition to the obvious vocal problems the voice is less than beautiful and she certainly doesn’t sound anything like I would imagine a young novice priestess sounding.
I begin to understand some of the less than positive comments about Cosotto. She overacts, for one thing. Her stage style, even her facial expressions would better fit the stage of a tear jerker melodrama, not a performance featuring the finest soprano of the era. I do not find her singing that bad, except when her vibrato becomes too broad. A better balanced cast would have been better, perhaps a Marilyn Horne or someone likely not to play her character in such an unpleasant way.
