Una interpretazione credo mai fatta da nessun tenore al mondo.Al di la della meravigliosa voce sulla quale nessun aggettivo è sufficiente per definirla.Mamma mia cosa è stato Corelli....mai più altri come lui...
Corelli è il più grande e il più bello tenore di tutti i tempi. Questa scena drammaticissima è veramente imparagonabile interpretata dai due protagonisti. Oggi non abbiamo più tali cantori. È inimmaginabile come l’uomo si è cambiato nella sua sensibilità in meno di cinquanta anni. Oggi non sente più niente. È una vera tragedia,e non è teatro,ahimè !
Avete notato l’espressione di dolore che il nostro grande Corelli mostra in questo finale tragico di Carmen. Un Don Josè grande , bravo, bello, per me unico . Nella ultima sequenza si vede la disperazione dell’uomo che non riesce a capire quando una donna dice , basta è finita. Uccidendo Carmen accetta il suo taccio destino
Guardo continuamente questa finale di Carmen, trovo che Don Josè di Franco Corelli oltre che cantato in maniera divina sia interpretato magistralmente.Tenore e attore allo stesso tempo.Mio amato Corelli
Oh my goodness! Well I'm a complete fan anyway but these 1950s recording of him put you on the edge of your seat. You know you're listening to a masterpiece of sound - a legend in action. The control, the power, the passion! Youth is universally envied for good reason.
Bellissimi e strepitosi artisti io non vedo nessun altra coppia che interpretano Carmen alla loro altezza non parliamo poi di questi tempi moderni. Sono perfetti nelle loro parti e meravigliosi da vedere e sentire. CORELLI FRANCO io l.adoro Per la sua bellezza per l.immensa voce e per il suo squisito modo di muoversi sulla scena in ogni opera che interpretava. GRAZIEGRANDE MAESTRO FRANCO.
Instead of tormenting the poor guy, I would rather be very, very gentle with him and caress these gorgeous curls of his :-)))) He truly was a stunner particularly in that recording, with his hair undone and his three-day beard!
Herrlich, dieses brennende Feuer und dieser Wahnsinn in den Augen in der Schlussszene! Aber den hatte er eigentlich immer ein wenig, oder? :-))) Ich wünschte, die heutigen Regisseure würden die Sänger auch einmal so von der Kette lassen, wie es die alten Meister getan haben. Diese Oper verlangt Leidenschaft, Leidenschaft und nochmal Leidenschaft!!! Schaaadeeeee......
I’m amazed at Corelli’s riveting performance. He seems truly crazed! Passion! And his singing is strong and emotional even when he is on his knees. What a gift he was. Thank you for the post! I have to go recover now....
Corelli strepitoso. Parte perfetta per le sue qualità. Voce di violenta passione, in un controllo musicale del canto che esprime bene il contrasto insanabile fra l'etica borghese misurata e le esplosioni di passionalità che travolgono Don José e distruggono Carmen.
A prescindere dai mezzi vocali,sui quali si dovrebbe scrivere un libro per elencarne i pregi,vive con una tale intensità il personaggio che ti lascia sbalordito
E non mi vengano a dire i cantanti di oggi che tali interpretazioni sono fuori dal tempo! questi sentimenti e la loro potenza sono sulla cronaca tutti i giorni (purtroppo)...Tali giustificazioni coprono invece un livello bassissimo di capacità e preparazione artistica del"recitar cantando".
What's ridiculous about Corelli here is that---obviously---no woman, let alone Carmen, would have said no to his José...... Carreras, sure. Corelli? no way....
John Blasiak :: I think his performance w / Price is the best the two of them have ever done --- vocally ... but Belen has a very nicely-balanced, rich mezzo-soprano sound ... better than I thought it would be as I've never seen this film before ... but, honestly man, who can sing this role as Price ? Her "acting", on stage in other roles, was unfortunate ; fortunately, she & Corelli acted w / their voices, especially Price as she wouldn't have pulled off _Carmen_ histrionically ... in my opinion. I sure Corelli must have been a vocal challenge for her to interpret this role vocally if not actually on stage & she was vocally magnificent !
I would have avoided the grotesque close shots! Especially with play-back! But there is no sexiest Don José possible (and vocally magnificent!). And the sudden unveiling of his chest at 09:25-09:28 is a mastepiece of male erotica!!! Amparan is just perfunctory with a bad tendency to overuse chest voice and off-tune notes!
Yes, this Jose is really handsome and virile but what people don't realize is that in the time of this opera women needed a male's financial foundation to support them. It is written in our DNA. These days we can bloody support ourselves. That may be why Carmen would reject Jose and run to the successful bull fighter.
I can't believe I wrote this. Maybe someone wrote it in response to what I had written. In our DNA? On what planet? She was already a successful smuggler. Remember, Jose didn't do so well at smuggling. Carmen would not have wanted to be with a failure. "Just a corporal is just fine for me." The higher ranking officers were not of interest to Carmen. But when Jose was seen as a failure th sax
Is it really so hard to understand why Carmen would not give in to Don Jose at this point? He lost his military commission and was not a good smuggler, whereas Escamillo was a successful bull fighter. No matter how beautiful Jose/Corelli was.
I love these discussions even if you don't agree with me. I still think Don Jose was a loser in Carmen's eyes. She, as did all women in the past, needed a strong man for their support. Notwithstanding that Franco Corelli was truly appealing. Not all who portray Jose were that attractive.
Shirley Rombough :: I don't think _Carmen_ needs any man to support her --- she takes care of herself --- she's working two jobs ; loves her freedom which would be jeopardized if some man controlled the money. In my humble opinion, _Carmen_ thinks about sex as a lot of men do ... not content, for long, w / one woman ... she isn't content w / one man ... when she's ready to move on ... she moves on ( the bull-fighter knows about this aspect of her character ... he knows what he's in for & still, being a man, wants to experience ... she doesn't need Escamillo's fame / fortune ... he just showed up for a future reference when she dumped _Don Jose_ ...she doesn't need any man's support ... they're only good for one thing ... _Don Jose_ isn't a loser in her eyes ; she said to herself :: "He's just a corporal" ... & good enough for her ( she's not a fortune-hunter ) ... where _Jose_ made his mistake was becoming too possessive ...
Una interpretazione credo mai fatta da nessun tenore al mondo.Al di la della meravigliosa voce sulla quale nessun aggettivo è sufficiente per definirla.Mamma mia cosa è stato Corelli....mai più altri come lui...
Come si fa a non amare questo grande artista. Sembra che viva realmente quello che sta interpretando. Divino!!!
Corelli is about 35 here. Terrific
Corelli è il più grande e il più bello tenore di tutti i tempi. Questa scena drammaticissima è veramente imparagonabile interpretata dai due protagonisti. Oggi non abbiamo più tali cantori. È inimmaginabile come l’uomo si è cambiato nella sua sensibilità in meno di cinquanta anni. Oggi non sente più niente. È una vera tragedia,e non è teatro,ahimè !

невероятно прекрасны....
Grande cantante e grande attore,era in uno stato di grazia.
Guardo continuamente questa finale di Carmen, trovo che Don Josè di Franco Corelli oltre che cantato in maniera divina sia interpretato magistralmente.Tenore e attore allo stesso tempo.Mio amato Corelli
Mamma mia... che emozione!!!!
Franco is 34 here! My God! How handsome he is! What a voice! Adorable! Unforgettable!
I love this man!
insanely good
Interpretazione da brivido, immenso Corelli, grande voce e grande attore!!!.
divino Corelli !

Trop de beauté...à tous les niveaux...trop de beauté.
No other singer ever displayed such physical beauty and magnificence of voice as Maestro Corelli.
Instead of tormenting the poor guy, I would rather be very, very gentle with him and caress these gorgeous curls of his :-)))) He truly was a stunner particularly in that recording, with his hair undone and his three-day beard!
Magnificent ,Maestro Franco Corelli .
Don José deserved better
Especially when it’s Franco Corelli!
Herrlich, dieses brennende Feuer und dieser Wahnsinn in den Augen in der Schlussszene! Aber den hatte er eigentlich immer ein wenig, oder? :-))) Ich wünschte, die heutigen Regisseure würden die Sänger auch einmal so von der Kette lassen, wie es die alten Meister getan haben.

О, Корелли, какая игра, какая страсть в голосе! Белен прекрасна.
Согласна! Аж мурашки по коже🤦♀️
I’m amazed at Corelli’s riveting performance. He seems truly crazed! Passion! And his singing is strong and emotional even when he is on his knees. What a gift he was. Thank you for the post! I have to go recover now....
Watch Del Monaco if you want crazy 😜
You can't "recover" after hearing Corelli in this role.
@@cliffgaither yes! Thank you for the smile...I never did recover!
Brilliant 👏
Honey, when she ripped his shirt open, my heart skipped a beat!
Una interpretazione eccelsa , una voce divina , grande Corelli, bravissima Belen
Belen surely is a very "authentic" Carmen, a skilled actress and wonderful singer.
She most certainly was the best and most authenit Carmen I have ever seen!
The best actor, singer, when there is no man like that Opera will die evantualy!
Corelli strepitoso. Parte perfetta per le sue qualità. Voce di violenta passione, in un controllo musicale del canto che esprime bene il contrasto insanabile fra l'etica borghese misurata e le esplosioni di passionalità che travolgono Don José e distruggono Carmen.
Corelli grande interprete di questa Carmen in italiano
nn riesco a credere a tanta bellezza ,voce unica tuttora ...nessuno ha questa potenza oggi giorno
e non l'avrà mai più .
A prescindere dai mezzi vocali,sui quali si dovrebbe scrivere un libro per elencarne i pregi,vive con una tale intensità il personaggio che ti lascia sbalordito
L'amparàn con un imposto eccellente nel " medium " . voce magnifica.
Corelli è semplicemente stupendo.
coppia magnifica
Adorable Belén.... su presencia era electrizante....
Gracias....
Such a good actor apart from incomparable singing...
How loud must it be to have him sing 6 inches away from you?
E non mi vengano a dire i cantanti di oggi che tali interpretazioni sono fuori dal tempo! questi sentimenti e la loro potenza sono sulla cronaca tutti i giorni (purtroppo)...Tali giustificazioni coprono invece un livello bassissimo di capacità e preparazione artistica del"recitar cantando".
Yes!!!
What's ridiculous about Corelli here is that---obviously---no woman, let alone Carmen,
would have said no to his José......
Carreras, sure. Corelli? no way....
Oh dang. You murdered Carreras that hard
The size of his larynx tells a story as Pavarotti said vocal cords of steel
His recording with Price and Merrill is much better and in French
John Blasiak ::

I think this is an RAI telecast sung in Italian.
plyas great crazed men at the end of hi rope

When Jose failed as a smuggler that was the end of her desire for the hapless Don Jose.
Is it really so hard to understand why Carmen would not give in to Don Jose at this point? He lost his military commission and was not a good smuggler, whereas Escamillo was a successful bull fighter. No matter how beautiful Jose/Corelli was.
I wouldn't care - The man is soooo cute and full of passion for Carmen. What more could she possibly want??? Money and status is not everything!
I love these discussions even if you don't agree with me. I still think Don Jose was a loser in Carmen's eyes. She, as did all women in the past, needed a strong man for their support. Notwithstanding that Franco Corelli was truly appealing. Not all who portray Jose were that attractive.

però preferisco la versione francese!
No no no, only Italian version!!! Don’t compare !!!
