I remember hearing this live on PBS and thinking “can this be a 59 year old soprano”? I heard her in 1970-1975, her prime. Those who were in the Glyndebourne theater that night (this was the opening of the newly renovated theater) got to hear Caballé as she sounded in her prime-steady, effortless, shimmering, gorgeous tones pouring from her in long, perfectly controlled phrases that defied description. What a great artist. Not only her singing and musicality are exemplary. Her stage deportment here is phenomenal. This is the work of a prima donna assoluta for sure. Future generations, thankfully, will no longer need to depend only on the written word when researching great performances by great singers. They have the historic videos. Thank goodness this was filmed . Imagine this transcendental, once-in-a-lifetime performance being lost for all time. That would have been a tragedy beyond description.
And Verdi has smiled, again. Another sublime, divine moment with lovely Montserrat Caballe. I had an MRI, recently, that two very young technicians assisted me. After all prep, they asked what music I would like to listen (spotif) while in my procedure. I humored them that perhaps you could pull up MONTSERRAT CABALLE? I had to spell her name and EXPLAIN who she was. While I listened to Caballe for 30 minutes, I learned after, they were listening, too, and were impressed she was "hit" 50,000,000 times on spotify. I said, "I am not surprised, MONTSERRAT CABALLE is very missed, as she was the last of the great DIVAS of the 20th century." Their stillness told me that they heard someone they had never heard the likes of another in their lives. I was touched as my first time I ever heard her sing. Thank you! 🌹💖

Love the Diva moment she gave at 12:14 ... raising her arms and the ways she put it together with such emotion... she was way more than beautiful singing , she knew how to create great opera moments.. with art and finesse .
Замечательное, вдохновенное и проникновенное исполнение. Кабалье восхищает своей влюбленностью в музыку, покоряет глубиной ее постижения. С небольшими оговорками очень хорош оркестр, особенно духовые. Это один из многочисленных шедевров Ютуба.
We love the fragility of Motserrat Caballe's voice, her Ave Maria with domain of the high notes without much transmission to the low register is the best interpretation of that aria, but Salce lacks the body of singing (the low notes are present and play very important rol in the development of the feelings of the protagonist of the opera)
And Dame Margo Fonteyn de Arias danced Juliet with Nureyev's Romeo at what was her age..fifty-? And Aurora at what age, 5-? Ha...she was not a grandmother. However, once a Diva always, my friend. Asking Montserrat at 59 to sound as her years of 1970 is like asking Montserrat to audition at 59 years for any opera house at La Scala or Convent or The Met...such an analogy always amuses me. And so it was...and still is. 🌹
Вы не оперу Отелло смотрите, а концертное исполнение. Это разные вещи! Вы должны понимать, господин хороший, если любите музыку, оперу и великих певцов!

Beautiful comment!

What a great story
Grandiosa Montsy, uno dei soprani nel mio cuore..
Forever the most moving for me in this aria. Such warmth and sincerity and peerless beauty.
What a voice control and musicality and charisma she had. There is such a sweetness about Montserrat!!!!!! 💜❤️🤩😢🕊️

Magnificent Montserrat, forever in our hearts ,the best ever ❤ 💙 ♥ 💖 💕
It's a wonderful thing to hear some of the most beautiful music ever written performed this well. The ideal aria for this amazing voice.
For me, the most empathic music Guiseppe Verdi has ever written. Heartbreaking.
Extraordinary for this time in Caballe’s career!
Love the Diva moment she gave at 12:14 ... raising her arms and the ways she put it together with such emotion... she was way more than beautiful singing , she knew how to create great opera moments.. with art and finesse .
What a liberation to attac that note so well

Tökéletes Ave Maria egy nagyszerü énekesnötöl.
Montserrat voz unica ... Tudo na sua voz é maravilha...
Sung so soulful......with her heart❤👍.........Montserrat!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
DIAMONDS !
A en chialer tellement c est beau.
Merci.

disfrutando de una bella voz
Brava sempre ❤ Deus a tenha.
How beautiful!
Great Caballè!!! 🙏
Verdi ❤❤❤
Grande cantante
With heart and soul 💓 ❤
Beautiful!

LINDISSIMO TALENTO!!!!
hers was the best
Excelente!
Superlativa...affascinante e commovente elegante....che dire di più......
c'est la meilleure interprétation de cet air sublime que j'ai entendu
EXQUISITA
П.С. .И ТАК..В КОНЦЕРТАХ МЫ. СЛЫШИМ,ВИДИМ. УЖЕ ОЧЕНЬ. ГАРМОНИЧНОГО. МУЗЫКАНТА ,ПЕВИЦА ВЫБЕРАЕТ. МУЗЫКУ. ПОТРЯСАЮЩЕЙ ГАРМОНИЧНОСТИ, 0:53 0:53 0:53 😅😅😅
could have done without the conductor's spa!smodic movements!
the strings are terrible
This music belongs to Renata Tebaldi, sorry.
Absolutely not. Desdemona is young and with a sweet voice, by Verdi. M. Caballè seems her grandmother.
Young sweet voices don't sing Verdi.
hahaha to me, to an italian, hahaha@@bobturnley2787
