    Quivar is just great!!! what a pity for the entire world of art to not have more recordings of her

    Notice Kraus, at almost 70, he sounds like a 25 year-old one. And he still can cover them in his upper registry. Not to forget that he still had high notes at that age. This is what I call performance.

      Like 25??? 25 years corpse! Come on, he sounds horrible.

      If kraus was around 70 in this video, he was struggling with his final stage of pancreatic cancer. He didn't sound horrible at all. In fact his technique was still intact.

    This is great! Kraus was very old here allready, but still nice colour of the voice, some tremolo, but nice. Florence is superb! She's mezzo, but here you'd say she's soprano.

    You know, this is a voice which is as good as it is and fell through people's fingers! She is an INCREDIBLE MEZZO-SOPRANO!!! And sometimes, she makes us think she is a soprano by the way she can hang around in the upper register like this does!

  • @ontologix
    @ontologix 16 лет назад +4

    Five stars for this cultivated and soulful rendering of the sextett plus choir. Alfredo at the age of 75 is just a miracle. Florence would have deserved more popular attention in her career. Sopranos have it a lot easier, unfortunately.

      @@TedinNY She's singing high, which is the point of a Soprano. Composers deliberately composed music so that, when the orchestra and chorus kicked in the soprano (or sometimes a mezzo) would soar above everyone else.

    • @TedinNY

      @@alleviation91 There is some truth in what you say.
      However, if you listen to other renderings of this septet, you'll hear the other singers.
      In most of her high lying phrases, the tenor sings right along with her and you'll hear him.
      In several other parts you'll hear the others, including Dapertutto, sing important phrases. There's also another mezzo, singing lower.
      In other words, this is a septet. We're supposed to hear all seven. Otherwise, what's the point?
      In this particular case, only one of the soloists is able to penetrate the chorus and orchestra.

    Kraus never sounded good, but here he sounds that bad that it seems it's done on purpose. And why is Quivar singing the soprano role? Odd.
