Maria Callas was truly the only one to make this song truly dramatic. A true Greek goddess. I feel so thankful that she lived in an era where we could record her soprano voice. She will forever live on.
Actualmente estudio música, me llamó la atención un video de puccini y entre la búsqueda llegué a madame butterfly. He escuchado a varios de mis colegas hablar sobre esto… decidí poner este video y cerrar mis ojos, me dejé llevar y comencé a llorar a mares… me imaginé cantando esto con un gran sentimiento aún sin saber de que habla. La ópera es hermosa, no muchos pueden entender lo mucho que puede llegar a tocar tu alma. Grande Puccini y Maria Callas
God bless your grandma. She had exquisite taste. How great that you have this beautiful masterpiece to remember her by. Puccini was my daddy's favorite composer. I came here tonight to remember him, and my childhood. He's battling brain cancer and I don't have much time left with my beautiful father. He's loved Puccini all his life and I have a love for this music all because of him. He heard a Puccini song tonight and it brought him to tears.
Sono musiche come queste che sprigionano emozioni tanto forti da far venire un nodo in gola anche a persone come il sottoscritto, che non sono troppo inclini al sentimentalismo.
I will never forget being g introduced to such a phenomenal and Brilliantly well written piece. I was the 1st young black African American to be blessed to attend such a beautiful event out of the project's where I grew up. At 11 yrs old my mind was forever changed💜
Maria Callas in this and other roles overwhelmed me, you, and everyone else. Jessie Norman did as well. we are all lucky to have had Maria and Jessie in our lifetimes.
Music -- especially good music -- knows no barriers. I hope your being exposed to this amazing piece was just the first of many opportunities in your life to hear beautiful music.
@@micky4fun ABSOLUTELY!!!!! this was not the first incredible musical experience in my life, but a great many more have already been experienced on youtube. what a treasury. you might want to check out Jessie Norman. she was a gift from god to all of us!!!!!
the story is about a Japanese girl who married an American who became pregnant by him then he went to America , after 3 years he came back with his American wife to get his baby and take her with him to America and the Japanese girl (madam butterfly) killed herself, very tragic .
Maria Callas, Madame Butterfly, my beautiful mothers favorite. My Mom had season tickets to the Lyric Opera. Worked her way from the cheap seats to her favorite spot. I grew up listening to Opera, I listen to it now to embrace my Mom. I am an old fart now, still brings me peace, joy and love. Stay Well!!!
My parents were Lyric subscribers. Dad traveled a lot for work and if he had to miss a performance mom would take me. My brother and sister had no interest and I think at first I just like the dressing up and being a pretend grownup escorting mom (we became a fixture among the other patrons as I was maybe 10 I think) which I would have liked but soon the spectacle and the music gripped me
This is so beautiful to the point that I can't fandom that a human sang this. I'm in tears. Thank you Maria for blessing my ears and thank you Magnetic Rose for introducing me to such a transcended being.
Maria Callas, a true Greek Goddess who briefly came back to Earth and who now sits, again, in her rightful place beside Zeus on Mount Olympus. The utter wonder of her singing makes all of us immortal for a small while we listen to her glorious voice.
Her total package is there, no one is even close, Total Class. Even today, still olympic Gold crown, sold out opera houses anywhere... She gave people reason to be passionate and going to Opera instead of TV and mcrophone Pop Stars, Badly needed more young Callas to move forward into future operatic stages... Love your words,
Passionately, profoundly straziante. One and Only. Callas's powerful voice moves me into the abyss of despair of an unrequited love Madame Butterfly feels.
My name is Frank. Would you believe she only sang this opera on stage in ONE production? It was not part of her regular repertoire. One critic wrote something to the effect of not wanting to hear her Butterfly again because he/she will end up liking this dreadful opera. The only time she sang it onstage was in Chicago with Giuseppe Di Stefano.
Благодарю за очередной прекрасный ролик. Каллас действительно уникальное, отдельно стоящее явление в опере 20-го века. О ее исполнении, вероятно, можно спорить, но не восхищаться ею нельзя.
I don't know much about opera but one thing I do know is that I love this song I remember hearing it on a old movie as a little girl and I never forgotten it. 🦋
...quanta passione, quanta femminilità, quanta forza nella sua voce...abito a pochi passi dalla sua casa veronese ed ogni volta è un'emozione pensarla li mentre la sua voce riempiva la strada di possenti note prima del debutto areniano: quando l'arte si sublima in tale potenza è eterna e lei lo è
Thank you very much for sharing ! I am from Brasil, but love Opera Very much, with all my heart and my soul. I was born in the wrong country. Maria Callas is the only one! She is my Diva 😍😍😍
A un certo punto quando dice: un po per non morire sono stato investito da un onda d'urto che ha frantumato una diga, mi sono uscite le lacrime e non capivo perche'..una vampata di calore, una sensazione disarmante e spaventosa focalizzata nello stesso punto, quasi provassi un senso di colpa per aver dubitato, dubitato che potesse esistere tanta potenza e passione. Mi cadeva addosso come stessi nudo sotto a una cascata. Che emozione, grazie
J'ai cru mourir lors de l'épidémie de Covid. J'écoutais Maria et, était est-ce dû à la fièvre, mais sa voix si belle m'aidait a accepter une éventuelle fin. Depuis, je vais bien et j'écoute Maria Callas avec encore plus d'émotion.
Heartbreaking voice and drama. Ms.Callas was perhaps the only exceptional soprano to embody Cio Cio San's both soul and sound and make her character truly credible.
Ms. CALLAS makes Puccini come into your heart,and to truly feel this great work of Opera......She does this through her voice,when she inflects her voice after asking" do you see,he is coming" In a second you you can feel her heart..
It's so wonderful to read all the different ways people came upon this song. For me, I first heard it in the first part of the anthology "Memories" by Katsuhiro Otomo. The first part is called "The Magnetic Rose" and has a script by Satoshi Kon (who made Perfect Blue, Paprika, Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress and Paranoia Agent). This piece is a central part of the film's soundtrack and informs the narrative somewhat. The part that amazed me is that you can feel the sorrow of the song, the emotion, the power behind it, even having not seen Madama Butterfly before. I loved it so much I made it a point to go see an opera of Madama Butterfly live. When I did, I somehow got a seat just 2 rows back, center stage. When the diva began to perform this song, it was beautiful. So much emotion in the lyrics, they incredible artistry she performed with her voice. I remember looking up at the Diva and seeing tears in her eyes as she performed. It was so beautiful it moved me to tears with the song. Music is amazing.
like Callas, the opera singer who lived on that space station/ship also lost her voice and suffered a fall from grace, so i think Satoshi Kon must have drawn inspiration, to some extent, from the real Maria Callas.
That's the thing esp with opera... sometimes understanding the words isn't necessary.... the voice and music tells the whole story. 🥺 makes me cry everytime.
@@Ali-kb8gr Music is a universal language. I can listen to Japanese hip-hop, understand like 3 words tops and just be like "Man I dunno what this guy is saying but he is SPITTIN FIRE I can tell ya that much." It's just the FEELING you get from a song.
Thanks A Million Zillion Always Always Always, Dear One for Posting & Just Because^^ Xoxo... My late-Father's Records include this Exceptionally Beautiful and Soulful and Spiritual Opera: Puccini Lives Forever & A Day,💖♥️💖♥️💖♥️💖♥️🌌🌠🎇🍀☔💒💝🎆⚓💟🎆🌌🌠🎇🎇🎇🎇💖♥️💖♥️⚓😇😘
Incredible! I first heard this in a botched suicide scene from the Indian movie 3 Idiots which starred Aamir Khan. Then I heard it once more in the final scenes of the movie version of M. Butterfly which starred Jeremy Irons and John Lone or Russel Wong, if I'm not mistaken. You can really feel the pain and tragedy of this song. Maria Callas is truly a legend and wow, her voice is so powerful! Wish to listen to more masterpieces like this and talented singers like her who are bursting and cascading with talent.
La más grande voz, la más grande alma. No es un desatino pensar que la más grande fiera se postra sin pensar ni media ante la grandeza de Puccini interpretada magistralmente por la diva de divas, la enorme Maria con esa voz angelical que te hace morir y resucitar para continuar escuchando su voz, esa voz que te atrapa y te rompe, te eleva y te suelta en un vuelo que te lleva al suelo para posarte con la sensibilidad de las notas que te embriagan. Si existe la felicidad en este mundo cruel, por seguro que se parece a estos minutos....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"just to tease him a little, just to save myself from dying" For some reason that line hits me hard, it's as if butterfly admits that if Pinkerton won't love her back she will either die or kill herself, yet she still does her best to ignore that thought, finding it much easier to convince herself that he still loves her than to face reality
Brutal. It really is. My wife doesn't understand why her "white husband" crumbles to puccini. Doesn't understand its only through the opera that real shit is said.
it's more of about the dying as in heart ache she will feel viewing again the loved one after such a long time of not seeing him. "just to not die at the first meeting (after the long wait)" she will need to prepare herself mentally and emotionally, just to be not fall ill for such an immense joy. But yeah, I agree that in some sense this mention of death alludes to the fact that despite the aria meaning ("I promise, he will come back, I wait for him, do not worry") she is uncertain that will ever see her loved one. And in case he won't come, or even worse, he comes but just to say adios one last time (he doesn't love her) she will die
Thank you so much for this. Maria is the one true love of my life. Her voice has touched my heart since I was a child. She was 'one of a kind', and so am I; perhaps you are as well. Take care, my friend.
This aria from Madam Butterfly is magnificent, takes me to another world and always brings me to tears. No one can sing it as superbly as the great Maria Callas. ✨
I remember this when my mom introduced it to me when I was around 8ish, I didn't understand Italian so my mom explained the opera, I thought of it as so sad. As I became an adult. I cry so easily when I hear it. It's so sad & tragic.
My lovely Mum loved Madame Butterfly. Maria Callas was her favourite opera singer If this came on the radio she would turn the sound right up and stop doing whatever she was doing.
A totally unique voice and woman. Listening to her gives me shivers, always a sign of a great artist, almost on the point of sobbing at the true emotion she is feeling. You will always be in our ♥️ Maria Callas
I have lost count of the Times I've Lost myself in THIS haunting song. Just listening again Sunday morning (clocks just gone back ONE hour here in the UK).
@@billybabu thank you same to you and thank god we can go on you tube and listen while we are isolated. just some info listen to sophie loyd playing guitar to this piece just came out
@@littlebigjohn69 Thank you for sharing this information much appreciated. I don't know if you like to listen to stories, I have recorded three stories on UA-cam. Just type in Billy Babu the story teller on UA-cam.
I heard this for the first time when I was 13. Synchronized swimmers in the 1988 Olympics did their numbers to it. And that's when I fell in love with opera music. Still moves me to tears now.
Oh how wonderful was Maria Callas?I treasure everything that she has performed. What a magical gift she had. Thank you so much, your voice brings so much joy and l will always be in debt to you. RIP to you.😊
Cuando escucho a Maria cantar esta maravilla ,, algo dentro de mi se desgarra ,,, cuanta pena siento , pero a la vez me encanta ,,, es tan increible esta musica se me caen las lagrimas por la voz,,, me meto en el papel como si fuera yo ,,, amo la musica de todo tipo me sirve para olvidar ciertas cosas !!

I can't stop crying every time I hear her sing. She sings beautifully
Love ❤ her voice too.
It makes two of us.

Me too.
Same here, my dad had to cry too the first time i played this vid for him.

Мария прожила как истинная гречанка-ее жизнь это трагедия в лучших традициях этого жанра. А голос до сих пор никем не превзойден. Это божественно.
After listening to it, it is not the same with anyone else only Callas the best... 🌹
The only one that comes close or even matches Maria Callas IMO is Angela Gheorghiu

Maria CALLAS to byla fenomenální zpěvačka - takové už se nerodí, klobouk dolu před jejími výkony !!!!!😀👍👋👋👋
Que belleza poder escuchar a María Callas y más con ésta obra, mi opera preferida. ❤️
No nosso Planeta, não há igual, ela é Única. Callas aonde estiver, nós continuamos lhe amando.
She was the greatest of the great! Bravo!
By seeing the eccentric lyrics and hearing the beautifully crying voices, should know she's deadly in love. Love Puccini
Столько боли а голосе, плачет, как хорошо передала героиню.
I have lost count of the Times I've Lost myself in THIS haunting song. Just listening again Sunday morning (clocks just gone back ONE hour here in the UK).
Haunting, truly so,

I saw the 1970's Lyric Opera production, with the revolving house set... absolutely brilliant! Unforgettable!
I heard this for the first time when I was 13. Synchronized swimmers in the 1988 Olympics did their numbers to it. And that's when I fell in love with opera music. Still moves me to tears now.
Oh how wonderful was Maria Callas?I treasure everything that she has performed. What a magical gift she had. Thank you so much, your voice brings so much joy and l will always be in debt to you. RIP to you.😊
Это божественно,очищающий огонь в звуке!
Maria Callas,wanneer je naar haar luistert,hoor je hoe gedreven en passioneel ze was.Iemand met zo'n prachtige gave leeft voor altijd.
A truly stunning performance from Callas and so poignant with the English translation - thank you 😢😎😍
Cuando escucho a Maria cantar esta maravilla ,, algo dentro de mi se desgarra ,,, cuanta pena siento , pero a la vez me encanta ,,, es tan increible esta musica se me caen las lagrimas por la voz,,, me meto en el papel como si fuera yo ,,, amo la musica de todo tipo me sirve para olvidar ciertas cosas !!
