Two great singers. I just wished a little more warmth between the two. But I'm proud of Marton, our Hungarian diva. Giacomini had an enormous voice. No more such voices!
2 chanteurs à la voix éminemment puissante nous rendent forcément nostalgiques tant il est difficile d'avoir l'équivalent aujourd'hui. Ces 2 grands artistes unissent leur technique vocale incroyable et leur "urgence" communicative. Que d'émotions devant cet investissement musical et théâtral bien qu'en situation de concert. Merci à jamais.
I first heard this duet in college in a live concert with Domingo and Scotto in Houston and was completely blown away...I cried like a baby. I bought their full recording of the opera the next day. Thank God Marton and Giacomini sang the last part of the duet in the original key without transposition down! For me, the duet never catches fire unless it's in the original key!
@@morisilweindal2848 Corelli usually sang it in the original key. Whenever he sang it transposed, it was for the soprano. But yes, MDM always sang it transposed, except in studio.
As usual you are totally 100% correct. The thrill and excitement you get from voices like this is why opera was more popular at this time. Not the hotness, not the staging, not the silly contemporary diretion. Powerhouse voices that tingled your spine and raised the hair on your arms. Awesome.
Fantastic. I had forgotten how great a singer Marton was at this stage of her career. And Giacomoni, his incredibly brilliant, powerful and inexhaustible top register astounds here.
How truly magnificent-both of them. I only discovered this today. This is the top-the ultimate pinnacle of italian verismo. I feel shaken to the depths of my soul Stefan Korrinz
Giacomini, un grandísimo cantante con enorme despliegue de facultades y con una extensión extraordinaria.Una colocación que lleva la voz con sonoridad hasta los agudos donde a otras voces se rasgan.
Stupenda performance!!! Maddalena di lusso con la signora Marton e Chenier di qualità con Giacomini,sicuramente l'ultimo grande, degno di questo repertorio!!! Dopo Giacomini,in questo ruolo, è esistito solo interpreti di valore modesto!!!!! Una delle poche volte eseguito nella tonalità originale!!!!! Grazie
Marton is an immense artist and singer..but just after that I heard this duet with Ghena Dimitrova and the same Giacomoni..and I just realized what Dimitrova was..a flame impossible to capture and still totally underrated..this is a great rendition but the best were Mario del Monaco with Renata Tebaldi and Ghena Dimitrova with Giuseppe Giacomini at least for me ..Thank you!!
Eva Marton fut une émouvante Madeleine de Coigny, ici en duo avec Giuseppe Giacomini, un Chénier tout a fait remarquable...qui n'a pas toujours obtenu de bonnes critiques, très injustement d'ailleurs...Il suffit d'écouter pour s'en rendre compte...
That is SOOOO thrilling ! Two magnificent singers, perfect for this particular duet, singing their heart out ! Giacomini possessed a beautiful, very baritonal voice. Perhaps not ideal for the rest of the opera, which pictures Andrea as a youthful, sensitive man : think of Carreras, who sang (and recorded) the role at the very limit of his vocal power, but so moving and attractive, and of course of Corelli, the epitome of vocal sex-appeal. As for Eva Marton, she is here at her very best, and that is saying a lot.
I heard an interview with Marilyn Horne on Clyde Martin's opera program on KCSC in Oklahoma City several years ago. Ms Horne expressed her opinion that Giacomini had one of the most beautiful tenor voices in her experience. I heard Giacomini in a Forza in St. Petersburg Russia in 2001 and he could sing the tenor role and excite the audience.
I was there that fantastic night!!as Everyone can see now thanks to UA-cam!!. They were fantastic!! Two greats dramatics voices!! Glorious voices!!where are those Voices now?
EVA MARTON y GIUSEPPE GIACOMINI interpretan el Dueto de Amor culminante de la Opera ANDREA CHENIER, del compositor italiano Umberto Giordano, basada en un texto literario en el contexto de la Revolución Francesa. Este dueto retrata el sacrificio de dos amantes que entregan sus vidas para salvar a una madre inocente. La música es altamente descriptiva, en cada pasaje se refleja la intensidad del momento que se aproxima, cuando las sombras de la noche se desvanecen con el alba. La suprema magnificencia de las voces, la fuerza expresiva de la orquesta y los redobles atronadores hacen de este cuadro un final de ópera como pocos se han escrito en el catálogo de cuadros musicales intensamente dramáticos.
well maybe it missed some overtone for a clean-cut B-natural but at least he gave it a try in the original key... which you do not find on youtube that easily... the voice was apparently too big to be drowned -for better or for worse- cuz then we wouldn't hear it, would we? Petty to pick on that isn't it? After such a generous live performance...
Es difícil hacer que las notas agudas no se estrechen y suenencon la misma anchura que la zona central.Del Mónaco,Corelli lo hacían Y también Giacomini.Posiblemente uno de los últimos tenores que podríamos considerar de la última escuela de cantantes de "otra época".*Yo, como cono,co algo la ópera y sé lo difícil que es cantar, y cantar bien,rezpetomu ho a los cantantes, precisMente por la dificultD, pero cuando se escucha un tenor de la categoría de giuseppe se afianza aúnmàs la ilusión por elbelcanto.Y concluyó diciendo que los grandes tenores,aquellos que impostany hacensonar lo mismo un mi o un fa que el si el sobreGuxo o el de te la favorita o mas aún,los hugonette,estirando todVia màs la voz, suelen echÉ algo atrÀs el cuellolevantàndolo ligeramentd
Totalmente de acuerdo. Estoy estudiando la misma técnica, y realmente hoy en día ya no hay cantantes actuales, o al menos no conocidos, que sepan usar el diafragma y la proyección correcta como Giacomini, Del Monaco y Corelli.
I think someone here is not a fan Of. Giuseppe. Giacomini,well,too Bad for you!!. I saw him so many Times at the. Met in. New. York City,which is a much bigger theater Than the. S. For opera,I went to S. For and is not half of the big Met. Let me tell you Mr. Giacomini Sounds really big!!and always he Delivered!!a powerful dramatic Tenor with a great timber!!
Both of these artists sing VERY well in this clip. Marton is hardly wobbling here! Her vibrato was always a little thick, but in her prime in the opera house it was stunning. Giacomini was so underrated (because of the big three). You know, at this moment you would not hear anything close to this at the MET. It's just the truth. Jonas Kauffman is the closest we have and I love hearing him, but most of the tenors now are either "buzz-saw" tenors or hoarse pushers. Sad!
Bravi! I'll leave it to to the "experts" to sort out the B naturals from the B Unnaturals or whatever other picky crap they can come up with but this was a beautiful performance by two veteran artists who knew their way around the Naturals and the Supernaturals. Under the pitch, indeed/
Great comment. They forget that every performance is unique, not a carbon copy of previous ones. Probably sad loners who take a score to the opera so they can appear clever when they go tut over a supposed wrong note. I say just enjoy it. No singing like this now.
Giacomini, un grande tenore !
Magnificent Giuseppe Giacomini!! Heaven will be more pefect with him in it...RIP Maestro.
Two great singers. I just wished a little more warmth between the two. But I'm proud of Marton, our Hungarian diva. Giacomini had an enormous voice. No more such voices!
I was fortunate to see Eva Marton as Elextra at Covent Garden about 1990 and she was stunning right to the last bars!!

I LOVE EVA!!!!! She is my favourite soprano- amazing power and beauty.
Such a powerful pair of dramatic-spinto voices! Fabulous!
both artists at their best.
Splendido Giaccomini!

You are absolutely right. The passion in their acting enhances the power of their voices. That last note should live eternal in opera.
❤😂 both missed sooo much😢❤

Stefan Korrinz
To think the critics at the NY Times panned the entire Richard Tucker Gala saying that everyone sang too loudly. I'll take this over anything now.
Totally agree with you. No one sings like this now.
What do critics know? They’re just frustrated singer want a be’s.
Giacomini, un grandísimo cantante con enorme despliegue de facultades y con una extensión extraordinaria.Una colocación que lleva la voz con sonoridad hasta los agudos donde a otras voces se rasgan.
DIVINE!!!
meravigliosi stupendi!
Bravo grandissimo maestro!!!!
would love to hear voices like this in person. maybe someday.
Unlikely these days.
Magnificent! They deserved a recording of Chenier.....
EXTRAORDINARIO DÚO, EVA MARTON YGIUSEPPE GIACOMINI.
Immensi ❤️❤️❤️❤️
what a duet
Bravooooooooo ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Stupenda performance!!! Maddalena di lusso con la signora Marton e Chenier di qualità con Giacomini,sicuramente l'ultimo grande, degno di questo repertorio!!! Dopo Giacomini,in questo ruolo, è esistito solo interpreti di valore modesto!!!!! Una delle poche volte eseguito nella tonalità originale!!!!! Grazie
BRAVI!!!!!! Duetto torrenziale ma privo di quel fascino che dona a questo brano FRANCO CORELLI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Prolly my favorite ending to any opera, what a way to go out! Bravi!
Bravi gli due!!!, che bello duetto con questi artisti bravi; penso che e il piu bello duo per soprano-tenore d'all repertorio spinto. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!
Giacomini when on form was legendary
Gosh, that was terrific real verismo singing. Loved it.
Both were stars! I saw them in Barcelona many times !❤
Marton is an immense artist and singer..but just after that I heard this duet with Ghena Dimitrova and the same Giacomoni..and I just realized what Dimitrova was..a flame impossible to capture and still totally underrated..this is a great rendition but the best were Mario del Monaco with Renata Tebaldi and Ghena Dimitrova with Giuseppe Giacomini at least for me ..Thank you!!
"The best" is always difficult to define, but Corelli and Tebaldi certainly qualify...

Giacomini's voice so strong.
Two great voices!!!

I heard Giacomini in a Forza in St. Petersburg Russia in 2001 and he could sing the tenor role and excite the audience.
He did have a wonderful voice but lost it. In his prime, his ping was a hairsbreadth from Pavarotti's, only lighter and fresher.
Fabulous pair...they ace it!
wow!
В Джакомини всегда трогало сочетание силы и нежности..
I was there that fantastic night!!as
Everyone can see now thanks to
UA-cam!!. They were fantastic!!
Two greats dramatics voices!!
Glorious voices!!where are those
Voices now?
Dueto fantástico. Fantastic opera duet.
Perfetto!
Just Fabulous!!!
Yet another glorious addition great opera duets on utube. Many thanks
Both are! Bravi!!!
Que inmenso talento el de Giacomini y Marton, bravi
Outstanding!!
Dos voces privilegiadas para un dueto excepcionalmente dramático y hermoso sobre el amor y la muerte.
💥💥💥COOL
A magnificent blend of two heavy duty, diesel-powered voices!
Great voices .....
Stupendi!!!
Bendita sea su memoria
Впечатляет!!!!
ÉVA MARTON! THE BEST!!
BRAVO!!! MERCI.
Sublime!!
Martons 83 Boston Turandots shockingly great.
grande Giacomini, Marton strepitosa, grande direzione di Guadagno
GÖTTLICH!!! Unglaublich!!! Ich liebe es!!!!
i heard Giacomini back in the 70s at the Met; Tosca I believe. He was a revelation. Ping very close to Pavarotti.
Giacomini was right up there with the best and Martin excellent. They are both not spring chickens here, but they sound gorgeous!!!
They were only in their 40s. Marton was born in 1943 and Giacomini in 1940. This is 1988.
giacomini arguably peaked vocally later in his years
❤❤
Thanks for posting this one. I have been searching this for many years.
Uno dei giganti del novecento
Bravo Giacomini; brava Marton. That is all I have to say.
He has some voice.. I would agree.
Bellissimo
Marton is fine voice here - sung in the correct key! Gaudagno is always so comical to watch - tiny little man with his arms flying around wildly!
Giacomini at his very best. Marton loud.
Bravo Giacomini! Brava Marton!
Nothing wrong with the final notes. Take into account the accoustics etc.
Very expressive and dramatic,,,,,,as should be.....JRT
MARTON is GREAT !!!!!!!
GRANDIOSO
Super
Mooi dit is er en komt ook.nooit weer!!!
❤😂Top Loud in NY😮😅
E nella tonalita originale!
La Marton e incredibile nel finale.

Donde dicen k son asesinados solo para salvar a la madre soltera??????
남녀 이중창 너무좋습니진
Exellent !!! what year was this recorded please?
OMG

"GRAN OPERA" ANDREA CHÉNIER.
Bellissima anche la direzione di Guadagno.. direttore troppo spesso sottovalutato
Wow! That conductor was on fire! Watch him at the final bars...he's possesed!
Very much unlikely Levine, the sonnambulist, conducting, half asleep.
Levine was dreaming of prepubescent boys
so beautiful, even with Giacomini a little flat on the 3 high notes of the duet.
Anche Eva Marton , Turandot di vaglia, fatica con gli armonici del nostro Bepi.Pero' , che bella donna.
I think someone here is not a fan
Of. Giuseppe. Giacomini,well,too
Bad for you!!. I saw him so many
Times at the. Met in. New. York
City,which is a much bigger theater
Than the. S. For opera,I went to
S. For and is not half of the big
Met. Let me tell you Mr. Giacomini
Sounds really big!!and always he
Delivered!!a powerful dramatic
Tenor with a great timber!!
Eccellente Giacomini.. La signora Marton buona
Both of these artists sing VERY well in this clip. Marton is hardly wobbling here! Her vibrato was always a little thick, but in her prime in the opera house it was stunning. Giacomini was so underrated (because of the big three). You know, at this moment you would not hear anything close to this at the MET. It's just the truth. Jonas Kauffman is the closest we have and I love hearing him, but most of the tenors now are either "buzz-saw" tenors or hoarse pushers. Sad!
When I heard Kaufmann singing this opera, he could hardly be heard at all. Only last C was OK from all that performance... Very disappointing
Bravi! I'll leave it to to the "experts" to sort out the B naturals from the B Unnaturals or whatever other picky crap they can come up with but this was a beautiful performance by two veteran artists who knew their way around the Naturals and the Supernaturals. Under the pitch, indeed/
Great comment. They forget that every performance is unique, not a carbon copy of previous ones. Probably sad loners who take a score to the opera so they can appear clever when they go tut over a supposed wrong note. I say just enjoy it. No singing like this now.
@danisouth I'm Italian, sorry... I think you could believe me.
