This is a miracle. A singer of Olivero´s age with an almost full register, the capability to still have a messa di voce, attacks and crescendo/decrescendo as if it wasn´t a problem at all. Sopranos who have this role in their repertoires are often less convincing than Olivero is here. Every student should study and listen carefully to such an example of wisdom in building a career and having a singing voice that seems to last forever.
For all of those who criticized her for her style and voice, nothing says, "kiss my ass", better than this performance. She's a true artist and had the blessing of the composer to do it her way
.......and at her age!!!! Lucine Amara also a true artist and sang into her 80s. Lily Pons giving a smashing concert at the age of 76. They were true artists. Singers had voices then!!
Cantare " Io son l'umile ancella" cosi a 83 anni e semplicemente un miracolo della natura. Io soffro quando sento dei soprani abordare quest'aria con 40 anni di meno. Gli acuti calanti sono quasi di rigore.
Penso che La Magda Olivero, Angelo Loforese e Lauri Volpi sono stati e sono tutt`ora esempi di longevità vocale dai quali c'è sempre piu` di qualcosa da imparare.....
Concordo , Magda Olivero aveva ( ha ) una tecnica sbalorditiva e una tenuta dei fiati degna di una ventenne e così si può dire di Angelo Lo Forese e Lauri Volpi, ma sono stati anche fortunati ad avere una salute di ferro.....
And the beautifully Pianistic accompaniment? Who was that? Singer : at 83! Lived until 2014= 104 yrs old. Difficult to grasp. I'd like this Pianist to accompany me if and when I live to 83 and can sing this Aria. Such musicality.
It is creepy to watch an 83 year old woman singing this kind of music. She can still sort of do it....it's true....but it's very creepy. She just couldn't let go of her career. Narcissists are steadfast in their need for approval and acclimation. It makes me sad for her. Personally, I never liked her edgy old sounding voice which was even like that years earlier. She was certainly an acquired taste. I never got it.
Aveva dovuto interrompere la sua carriera precocemente per ragioni di salute. Questo forse può spiegare l’assurdità di questi recital (questo non è il solo) all’età di 80, 90 e più anni. Il 15 agosto di ogni anno (che in Italia è una festività religiosa, Ferragosto) Magda Olivero cantava nella chiesetta di Solda (un delizioso paesino di montagna a 1950 metri di altitudine, dove trascorreva le vacanze) un piccolo brano liturgico, ad es. il Panis angelicus. Era una cosa bella e dignitosa. Avrebbe dovuto limitarsi a questo. Ma evidentemente era circondata da giovani o meno giovani cattivi consiglieri
I don't understand these kinds of complaints. She still wanted to sing, people (I think rightfully, but whatever) still thought she had something to offer. She wasn't dragging herself all over the big stages anymore, singing large big roles she wasn't fit to sing (unlike some older star nowadays), but sang in recitals, private gatherings. Especially the reference to narcissism seems entirely unfair. Having a hard time saying goodbye to a career does not make one a narcissist. I'm grateful we have this record, because if anything it proves how big a chunk of singing comes from technique, not the intrinsic beauty of the voice.
This brought tears of joy to my eyes. Music is timeless. And her love of music gave her her long and beautiful life. Brava!
Да,именно она ухаживала за голосом и он благодарил её и служил

Blijft en is , de fenomenale Magda Olivero ,de intensiteit,is teveel om op te noemen, thanks
A miracle of style, technique, expression, and sheer voice!
a miracle of unintuned voice
One of the great verismo sopranos of the 20th century.
the greatest
The diminuendo at the end is unbelievable for a singer of this age.
Everything in this recording is unbelievable for a singer of this age.
For a singer of any age.
Che fiati lunghissimi che aveva. Non è usuale tra i giovani, figurarsi a 83 anni. Veramente eccezionale, bravissima!
she made me cry
True!!
Un Miracolo Vocale! Che Dio la abbia in Gloria!
Bella dama la Olivero, fantástica interpretación..canta con todo su ser, alma y cuerpo...belleza de perfomance. Gracias
La più grande interprete di Adriana ❤️
Brava!!!! She was the best Adriana Lecouvreur. Amazing voice !
Una tecnica perfetta e un finale di aria da far invidia a una ventenne....
Maşallah teyzem tebrikler bu yaşta ne kadar güzel okuyuş
Bravissima !
Unglaublich fantastisch
Grande, grande. La sua Fedora è per me indimenticabile!! Oltre alla voce, la musicalità aveva una presenza scenica e una eleganza, insuperabile!!
la olivero me es increible por su gran talento, tambien por su facilidad en cantar cuando ya tenia cierta edad. saludos, magda!
señor: no se dio usted cuenta que la señora Olivero no pudo encontrar la entonacion de la romanza desde el principio hasta el final ?
¡Admirable! Qué dominio de la técnica a los 83 años... sin palabras.
what a career to sing this at her age................bravo magda................sing your golfen tones with the angels

Fantastic last note!! Unbelievable for a singer of this age. Bravo indeed!!
fantastic unintuned singing since the begining to the end
È il suo personaggio ed è rimasto suo per sempre
Concordo!

Un mito
And the beautifully Pianistic accompaniment? Who was that? Singer : at 83! Lived until 2014= 104 yrs old. Difficult to grasp. I'd like this Pianist to accompany me if and when I live to 83 and can sing this Aria. Such musicality.
Unsurpassed
Голос так то не стареет,голосовой аппарат нужно держать в гигиене..и он будет служить до 90 лет может
Terrific!!!!
Augusto, tu sí che hai capito tutto...

Maybe you are narcisst and you have projections?

Wanting to perform when one is still able to perform has nothing to do with "CAREER".
