Voce sublime, mi commuovo ogni volta che la ascolto, una vera artista che canta con il cuore, per me rimane una delle più grandi interpreti del bel canto. Grande Leyla!
Tutto ciò che cantava Leyla Gencer diventava oro, magia, meraviglia. Questa pregevole edizione de Il Trovatore, in cui ci sono anche Del Monaco, Barbieri, Bastianini, Previtali, é indimenticabile ed è passata alla Storia. Leyla Gencer è immortale e rimarrà, per sempre, la regina dei nostri cuori.
Ascoltando Leyla Gencer....in questa celebre aria del Trovatore...la sua voce e spratutto la sua espressività ti porta ...anzi ti fa spaziare e capire il dramma...del momento che l'eroina vive...e tutto questo è supportato magnificamente dalla sua strordinaria voce dall'estensione che nei filati è oltre ogni capacità umana...grandissima Leyla Gencer. 🙏👏👏👏
LEYLA GENCER Regina della Lirica❤👍❤👍che per mia grande fortuna ho potuto ammirare all Arena di Verona ,sia nel Trovatore(1968) e prima ancora in Aida (1963 e 1966) ,Norma nel 1965 e Forza del destino 1967. GRANDISSIMA E INDIMENTICABILE.
Conmovedora interpretación. Una creación de Leyla muy íntima, excepcional. Me encanta Leyla en este rol. Por favor suban la ópera completa ..este arte no se ve hoy. Muchas gracias.
It will forever remain a mystery why Gencer wasn't signed by one of the major recording companies in the 50's and 60's - such a fine singer towering above almost anyone of today.
I agree with Robert Donkers and Dragan Vidic. How wonderful she was as a singer and beautiful as well. Why? Why have I never heard of her? But I have now, to my great fortune.
I have this whole recording on DVD . Out of curiosity I have been listening to others singing this role of Leonora , Callas included . I think Leyla Gencer here is far the best in interpretation and very controlled singing .
@@fan2jnrc To you and many Callas is the name , nobody better than Callas . Callas had a remarkable voice and was a very dramatic singer , but that does not mean she was always perfect beyond any other singer . This is an aria that requires thought and skillful interpretation which I think Gencer gives the best .
This is SO simply magnificent!! Those high pianissimi in the aria are without equal. You just melt at what she achieves! I LOVE Leontyne - but Gencer is without equal in this role! And the expansiveness in the Miserere is phenomenal!
The golden days when such singers could fill the auditorium with the clearest and lightest of pianos instead of screaming and often miked as they are today, great artist of an art totally extinct.
There are good singers out there today but the sound they produce is not wanted by directors anymore. True story: auditions were held by a German house for Tatiana in Onegin and a singer I know was told her sound was “too heavy and loud” so she didn’t get the part; meanwhile, the house has a wonderful singer who didn’t get the part either because the director wanted “girlish” sound and looks. The fest singer was disappointed and sad, of course. In Germany Tatiana is being sung by light lyrics as I write this. A true disservice to ART
@@claudia_957 Perhaps I wasn’t clear being ‘heavy o loud’ has nothing to do with the “Art of Singing” where, intonation, musicality and more importantly ‘interpretation’ has completely disappeared. The use of house filling ‘piano’s’ are a thing of the past! The great singer’s and I was luck enough to have seen live nearly everyone of them even when physically ugly and advanced in year could easily paint a vocal picture of youth and beauty and that is good no great singing!
Yes. I agree with you. I only meant to state that there are some really good sopranos out there today that are not being offered roles because they are perceived as being to heavy or loud for roles that are given to much lighter sopranos (who might have lovely voices and decent musicianship), but are not “right” for the role. I do not wish to name names because that would be unfair to the singers. A classic example of a singer who was not appreciated for her work is Vogt. A good example of a singer who is doing well right now is Saioa Hernandez, who probably wouldn’t have gotten as far as she has without Monserrat Caballe’s support. I know there are others singing today who should be given more opportunity.
She virtually equals Callas in so many ways. She would have been more famous had the 2 greats come to us at different times. I think she's the queen of high soft singing, which I believe was her signature feature.
Well, the piece is beautifully sung, but she sings all those passages without the trills, when the trills are the biggest challenge in this aria. Remove the trills and it becomes easy peasy. Callas didnt only sing the trills but she added colors to them. In this aria the trills are so hard because they are binded into the melody and in middle voice. They way it is written in the music score is 100x harder to sing and Callas sings it like its nothing. There is virtually a huge mountain between this singing and what Callas sang. But Leyla's pianissimos here are legendary.
All trills are there, exceptionally well integrated with the rest parts sang. Trill should not always stand out or remind sound of the male turkey. Never have heard other soprano which has sung this so ''easy peasy'' even without trills.
J'ai ecoute deux foix Cette Diva Turque a l'eglise Aya İrene d'istanbul. A 1984. C'etait magnifique pour moi. En plus toutes les hirondelles d'Aya İrene ecoutaient Leyla Gencer.
Да, забыть такую Ленору невозможно. Как и многие другие, исполненные Генчер партии. Только после того как услышала её Норму, я смогла до конца понять героиню этой оперы. Настолько глубоко и проникновенно было пение госпожи Генчер, что не могла слушать эту партию в исполнении самых именитых певиц. Лейла Генчер великая певица, интерпретатор и музыкант. Дива, настоящая Дива.
Brilliant singing. Unusually evenly registers, diminuendo and crescendo are beyond praise. Compared to this, the singing of Mario del Monaco turn pale.

@D L Are you serious? Price had one of the worst Italian dictions as she could not help herself with her thick southern accent which is audible in everything she sings. It is quite obvious that she slows down the tempo where an aria requires agility because speed worsens her Italian. Listen to her D'amor sull'ali rosee and right when she begins singing (where she says "La") you can hear her thick southern accent kicks in. You can hear whenever there are two letter "L" are in a word she can't pronounce them, which they have like truck load of them in Italian. For example, instead of saying "beLLa" she says "beELa". This accent and diction issue is troubling for many native English speaker opera singers as the phonetics are quite different, but her issues are one of the most obvious ones.
@@Verist4 Price owned this aria in numerous live performances. No other soprano ever came close to her in terms of musicality, nuance, head voice, power or any other vocal quality, EVEN IN THIS LYRIC ARIA CALLAS WOBBLED AND LOST RESONANCE ON LOW NOTES SOUNDING IN THE MOUTH. she rushed through the coloratura, she screamed on the loud. Callas was horrible. ANYONE who knows opera and singing knows better.
In quegli anni i trilli venivano ritenuti degli abbellimenti eccessivi dai direttori di orchestra che li eliminavano a loro piacere. Non era una scelta della cantante
@@80Mrmirko Di cosa diavolo stai parlando? I trilli qui non sono un ornamento lasciato alla libera scelta dei cantanti o del direttore d'orchestra, sono SCRITTI nella partitura di Verdi e devono essere cantati. Non c'è mai stato un momento in cui "D'amor sull'ali rosee" sia stato cantato senza trilli. Infatti, qui si può sentire che la Gencer cerca di cantarli ma non ci riesce.
Mario Jimenez. De acuerdo contigo, no es mejor que Callas, tampoco creo que la copie... pero es una gran, gran interpretación, mil veces mejor de lo que se escucha hoy. Saludos cordiales.

Gencer so young and so magnificent. Love her singing this aria setting the standard to the pianissimos, pathos, thrills, agility and drama.
İnsanın aklını başından alan bir ses ve teknik, boğazın serin sularında yüzercesine...
She sings and acts beautifully. She was the genius of the Opera in 20th century... 🙏🏻💗
Best rendition I ever heard of this aria. Early Gencer 1950-1967 was a miracle.
Adelaida Negri's. Vut my beloved Leyla was such a star...
Callas?
Supreme rendition. Unmatchable pianissimos. Uncomparable technique and emotion. Thanks for sharing this.
OMG gigantic! 😮😮❤❤❤
Well, she can sing!
Personal and dark tone, a true musician!
There are hardly any singers these days with this caliber of singing and artistry...
Omg is she ever great. What spectacular, inspired and moving singing. Divina Gencer!
Leyla Gencer makes you cry when you listen to her sing this aria. I think that is the Turkish blood in her, full of passion and fire! She is a legend!
La grande Leyla
Casi tan perfecta como la version de Caballe hermoso
Conmovedora interpretación. Una creación de Leyla muy íntima, excepcional. Me encanta Leyla en este rol. Por favor suban la ópera completa ..este arte no se ve hoy. Muchas gracias.

She is champion of this aria

Her voice wasnt considered pure enough as she herself said
@@chengducat Not pure enough? What does that even mean?
Because they where ignorant only profit orientated CEO ‘s
Sandor konya
Anita Cerquetti only to name a view
I agree with Robert Donkers and Dragan Vidic. How wonderful she was as a singer and beautiful as well. Why? Why have I never heard of her? But I have now, to my great fortune.
Shirley Rombough she was actually very famous competitor of Callas back then.
Shirley, welcome to the legions of her fans!!
I wish I could hear singing like this live.
Fantastisch!🎶👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I didn't know her! Magnificent voice, wonderful singer! What a fantastic interpretation! I am really surprised! Sublime Leyla Gencer!
She was wonderful. I saw her a couple of times in La Scala in the 60ties. In Anna Bolena and La Favorita, she was really perfect.
Magnifique travail de synchronisation, qui rend encore plus bouleversante cette version radiophonique !!!
La Gencer est inoubliable.
MERCI !!!!!!!!
Semplicemente....fantastica.❤
...exquisite...!
Spettacolare...da brivido!!!!
Meravigliosa ❤❤❤❤❤grazie
Grandissima
Divina.

Leyla also was trained by Elvira de Hidalgo for a while, the same teacher who formed Maria Callas.

Fuat Uğur çok şanslısınız, ben de kendisini dinlemiş olmayı çok isterdim
The only singer that truly can match Maria Callas in acting, feelings, musicality and voice. Claudia Muzio also came very close.
Canto meraviglioso e affascinante
Incredible, incredible.!!!
Bravissima!
One of my 2 favorite damor sullali alongside caballe
Wonderfull
Fantastic cast !
Sorry for the profanity but this is so fucking fantastic. Best rendition by far. I love those gossamer notes.
She was together with Callas one of the best !
Лейла Генджер самая лучшая Леонора в мире. ❤

divine
Amazing
Bayıldım. 🎉🎉
❤❤
OUTSTANDING
Del Monaco fait vraiment canard à côté de cette belle chanteuse.
Its hard to get any quality recordings of her
Слышен также голос Марио дель Монако!
I think,
no, I am positive that this is her fault, I can not truly enjoy the aria in the opera house :)
So unique!
Bravissima Gencer. Stupenda. Pero pur troppo sincronisazione fa schiffo.
I agree!
Brilliant singing. Unusually evenly registers, diminuendo and crescendo are beyond praise. Compared to this, the singing of Mario del Monaco turn pale.

Was she a dramatic soprano??
She totally blows Callas away!
Please. Don't be ridiculous.
Le sta alla pari e comunque le assomiglia parecchio, erano abbastanza simili nella voce e nell'interpretazione

@@DLJ2890 Keep dreaming
really wonderful, but Price has everyone beat on this one especially from 3:00 onward
Keep dreaming ;)
D L Indeed. Nobody can sing this like LP, especially the Miserere.
