It's rare that a mezzo can resolve and hold from the same open fifth that Sutherland does, but Horne manages to make it look so easy here, to end the final section of the work. Simply wonderful. They were truly an unequalled duo in opera. Thanks for posting this.
How blessed I am to have heard these divas live. So long ago. Opera today is a total mess. Truly a dying art form. I'll die with memories of the golden age ringing in my ears.....
Never had I ever felt, nor never will I ever experience the feeling of so much love in any one place or time. as was expressed in that auditorium after that legendary performance.
Questo e' un concerto stratosferico. Io invece ero in 6 fila nel 1972 a Roma e ad Asolo nel 78 e poi a Venezia al Malibran...piu' 8 recite di Lucrezia Borgia...credo ce ne sia abbastanza per affermare che le Devie e company non esistono e potevano essere accompagnate a casa. Seguito a ripetete che la Callas e la Sutherland sono stai i soprani piu' grandi e importanti del XX e XXI secolo. Cordialissimi saluti.
Tout cela semble couler de source …d’une perfection et d’une grande beauté . Leur duo est parfait . Deux immenses musiciennes et on ressent une complicité musicale et amicale totale.
Horne sang in duet with Sutherland; Sutherland sang in duet with Caballé; Caballé sang in duet with Horne. The three were very good friends and not rivals. I dream of a concert where they could have been gathered...😌
Espetacular! A voz da Horne é linda! A voz dela tem muitas cores, brilho e poder! A voz da Sutherland tinha beleza e ela a técnica dela era impecável... A dama Joan é eterna...
There are a lot of opera crazies in there. Can you hear the lunatic screaming "Brava Brava" at the top of his lungs? Surely HE lost his own voice very shortly!
This is probably the best performance I’ve seen of this duet by these two… and there are many floating around from throughout the years/decades. Question…Do you happen to have the full concert that Joan and Marilyn did at Lincoln Center? It used to be on UA-cam a few years ago, but it was taken down for some reason. Thanks 😊
She sang brilliantly with Horne; a great colleague tends to inspire further artistic and musical expression. But I wouldn't say she sang "better' than with all male colleagues. I heard these two women in NORMA at San Francisco and they broke they place apart. But her Lucia's with Domingo, Tucker and Pavarotti, her Amina's with Gedda, her Violetta with Bergonzi and Kraus, her phenomenal Esclarmonde's with Aragall are all breathtaking partnerships in the lyric theatre.
Never equalled, and never surpassed. The closest one can get to human perfection!

Cantar Traviata con más de 60 años y cantarlo estupendamente bien, es ser de otro mundo.
They don't get much better folks then these two. They are PHENOMENAL TOGETHER....!!!
Фонтастика, божественное исполнение, какое наслаждение слышать такие голоса,БРАВО ,БРАВО, БРАВО,преклоняюсь перед настоящим талантом.

My God!!!
It doesn’t get any better than this moment And Never Will!!!!!!!!❤
I am in the second row in front of these legends. I was 25 years old. Unforgettable. Bravissime.

LUCKY

Amazing, how would you describe their voices!?
Seriously.....listening to this is like floating on clouds in heaven!!!
They blend neither trying to outdo the other a perfect match we will never see their like again Superb.
I’ve been having a hard time finding Sutherland on UA-cam. So happy I found this channel.
Perfection. Marilyn sings like Italian is her native language.

Tiempos de gloria de la ópera!!!!! Maravillosas!!!!
8:30 a true embrace of friendship 😊
Perfect!
I am on row 10❤
OMG. I just noticed for the first time when Dame Joan goes to shake the hand of the concert master, some first-row lunatic grabs her gown.

nothing but the best
Meravigliose. Ho sentito la Norma ieri a Parma cantata da Angela Maede anche lei splendida

Did Sutherland sing better with Horne than with men? This partnership seems to bring out the best in both of them
She sang brilliantly with Horne; a great colleague tends to inspire further artistic and musical expression. But I wouldn't say she sang "better' than with all male colleagues.

Horne is consistently. She overhang the low notes anc it weighted her voice so that she lacked the higher partials to keep her voice ‘in tune’.
A bit too slow but they're gorgeous
Indeed a bit slow, but it brings about the splendid blend of voices. A miracle of singing…
