Esto es una maravillosa rareza de hace casi cuarenta años. Vestuario que parece de ciencia ficción. Unas Caballé y Horne en plenas facultades. Una música, la del último Rossi (de menos de cuarenta años) menos repetitiva que otras veces, aunque él siempre fue genial. La obertura se interpreta mucho. Estas son las cosas que hay que recuperar. Thanks, Merci, Danke, Grazie machikokio san
Oui merci beaucoup... j'ai beaucoup cherché cette représentation à laquelle j'ai assisté à Aix et à Paris au théâtre des champs Élysées. Dommage le décalage images son. La magie joue encore pleinement... quelle distribution extraordinaire..Samuel Ramay inoubliable et royal le couple Montserrat CABALE Marilyn Horne au sommet. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗🤗
Gran dirección también, que evita que la partitura se haga en ningún momento aburrida. Hay Semiramides más perfectas, con una coloratura más ajustada (aunque Montse tenía una coloratura asombrosa en el centro de la voz). Pero esta versión es especialmente emocionante, llena de detalles e imaginación, con un fraseo intencionado magnífico (al menos hasta el la, y en los momentos más dramáticos especialmente). Aunque son evidentes la dureza del do y del re, que hasta se atreve con esas notas, y algún sonido agrio, esta es una de las últimas grandes interpretaciones de Caballé, que empezaba a declinar, pero está rutilante todavía. El resto, también insuperables. Y el montaje, la puesta en escena, superoriginales y superinteresantes.
Even in decline Caballe gave us unbelievable performances, and in her prime she was like a miracle, i love many sopranos, Horne also started off as a soprano, switching to mezzo later on, she was amazing always. Director made a great job here, used both voices and orchestra as one all the time, i enjoyed this opera very much
Tout à fait d'accord avec vous. C'était tellement moderne et surprenant.. j'ai assisté à 3 représentations et je suis toujours reconnaissant à ces grands du chant.
Wonderful reminder of Caballe's amazing understanding of how to sing bel canto Rossini.Beautiful understated cadences & liquid coloratura. Horne unsurpassed as Arsarce. What a voice! Nice traditional production. Story rather absurd as it is is set in Assyrian times. ! Really enjoyable . Thanks for posting on youtube.
Thank you for this performance. Especially for how I don't need to watch the ludicrous physical production and can get exactly as much joy by just listening.
Thank you for this glorious production and the subtitles, too! Great singers! But for amateurs like me, could anybody tell me who is playing which role?
Does anyone know the EXACT date of this performance? It was done in Théâtre de la Cour de l'Archevêché, Aix-en-Provence, in July-August 1980 and also broadcast by Radio-France in STEREO (the video is mono only). Various sources indicate the following four possibilities: 15, 19, 23 July 1980 and 23 August 1980. So which one is it? The Aix Festival archive only specifies the date of the premiere - 15 July 1980 - and that's it.
The costumes are weird, but the strong voices compensate. E.g., the trio beginning at 16:12 is well executed and a lot of fun, except for the lack of sync between the visuals and sound track.
beautiful !!! Caballe's bel canto is so fantastic,Horne and Caballe are like best mach, enjoyed every second of this opera
Sublime, oltre ogni aspettativa umana
Grazie sig. Horne e sign. Caballe per averci dato questa meraviglia di bellezza
Great Ramey in his prime!
I love Araiza's amazing dark voice! Super performance of Caballe' and Horne. ❤🙏
Voci splendide, perfette! Bravissimi ! ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

Pena que no estén sincronizados sonido e imagen...

Ramey looks so handsome
Cose così non si sono mai sentite in passato e non si sentiranno più in futuro purtroppo. Caballè e Horne a livelli stratosferici!
Grazie mille!!! 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Esplêndida Ópera...Música! Interpretação! Perfeição!
Ich war dabei, im Juli 1980 in Aix, mit meiner Frau : ein einmaliges Erlebnis !
La più bella rappresentazione della Semiramide di tutti i tempi.
Però peccato che sia molto tagliata. Manca circa un'ora dell'opera intera!
@@mirjamdevries9376 È un'opera talmente noiosa che spesso sembra interminabile, quindi va bene così.
GORGEOUS SINGING
The tenor is Francisco Araiza.
Great singing, great affection between Horne and Caballe. Very touching.
Изумительно!!! Божественно!!!
Monteserrat...Divina!
LES COSTUMES ET LE DÉCOR CELA RELÈVE DE LA MAGIE ET DU MERVEILLEUX
Tout à fait d'accord avec vous. C'était tellement moderne et surprenant.. j'ai assisté à 3 représentations et je suis toujours reconnaissant à ces grands du chant.
INCOMPARABLE
I love the entire cast- especially Montserrat Caballe.
Horne surtout !
@@paddydesetoiles Surtout Samuel Ramey !
Muchas gracias por compartir esta maravilla ❤

Stratosferica la Horne in questo ruolo e così gli altri
Thank you thank you thank you for this absolutely beautiful RARE performance....you can't buy it, thank G-d for UA-cam. NONE BETTER!!!!
Sublime !
Thank you for this performance. Especially for how I don't need to watch the ludicrous physical production and can get exactly as much joy by just listening.
haha. Those costumes! But I still like to see how Horne and Cabballe communicate on stage. In Spite of Hornes funny helmet etc.
I thought it was quite neat..
maravillosa
Люблю.
Es ist nicht schlimm ! Meine Erinnerungen aus dem Jahre 1980 werden wach…
Omaggio x montserrat caballé
Dedicarle un teatro nella sua Barcellona
Wow!
Я думаю,что Россини был бы доволен этим исполнением.
thank you
48:30 Bel raggio lusinghier
58:20 Serbami ognor
2:02:49 Ebben, a te...
2:07:54 Giorno d'orrore
2:14:15 Madre, addio
Thank you!
Thank you so much.
Does anyone notice that the voices and the visuals are not in sync?
Great!
Thank you for this glorious production and the subtitles, too! Great singers! But for amateurs like me, could anybody tell me who is playing which role?
Caballe is playing the title role, Semiramide.
Marilyn Horne, Samuel Ramey
Rossini - Semiramide Con Montserrat Caballé, Horne, Ramey; López Cobos 1980 Aix En Provence
Samuel Ramey is the best Assur ever.
La mancanza di sincronia si rimedia non guardando le labbra. Non si può avere tutto.
16:24, A quei detti
Does anyone know the EXACT date of this performance?

Brava
The costumes are weird, but the strong voices compensate. E.g., the trio beginning at 16:12 is well executed and a lot of fun, except for the lack of sync between the visuals and sound track.
The crazy amazing singing takes the focus off the totally absurd costumes.
The video was advance and the audio was late 😭😭. Great performance especially the pants role
1:05:27
This is such an excellent cast. Such a pity it is impossible to watch as it is so wildly out of synch. !
Cela ne devait pas être facile de chanter avec de tels costumes !
pas écoutable. le son est interrompu toutes les 10 secondes, suivi d'un CLIC quand le son revient.
Lo que sucede en el 2h 12 minutos no tiene nombre
Horne!
Epoche finite stupe de
il tenore non si può sentire
Castone, Araiza, Ramey, Caballe, Horne. Samuel had in front a glorious carriera
Well that's definitely not June Anderson... Caballe was overrated in Semiramide. By that time, she no longer had the ability to sing it really well.
