The Vienna people absolutely adore the Great Domingo, and with good reason. He and Agnes have collaborated so well over the years. Bravi! In this clip, they both still sound amazing once they get their feet planted, so to speak. Around this time, 2005, he does start to feel the years in the top of his voice and so he knew it was time to ease back. That he's interpreting baritone roles now is ok with me and all the people still buying tickets to see him perform. He's certainly not the first opera singer to foot the stage while well into their golden years, and he will not be the last, trust me. As long as he sells tickets, no opera house will turn him away. Mil gracias por compartir este documento historico de dos artistas finas.
This is a heartbreaking aria: so well sung by both. And many thanks for the lyrics. Beautiful singing, heartbreaking lyrics and the emotions are so heartfelt. One would think Radames would at least consider Amneris.
This is my opinion: Radames is more or less a bonehead. A man of valor yet conflicting loyalties. But he drew the line at love. (I would have tried to have it both ways.) I don't know what I'm talking about. There's international intrigue going on here that supercedes the lives of mere people. Awww, just let me say it. This opera points my attention towards imperialism. There, now you get my drift. And I don't have to talk about emotion and beauty and compassion, do I? No, I don't.
@@brucer9572 Yes you do. Why? Because this is opera. It is not just about international intrigue. It is about gorgeous music, heartbreaking lyrics, wonderful singing as well as character analysis and the forces affecting their choices.
E vuoi ch’io viiiiiiiiiiva : it’s one of the most great High B Flat Crash dome by DOMINGO , but he’s fine anyway . I love Him ..... and to be honest I love both of them !!!
Baltsa's unparalleled Amneris under Karajan was in about 1979 or 1980, this is 15 years later; Domingo has settled into his baritone roles, so I wasn't expecting him to sustain the B-flat, though I thought he might get nearer to it. But we're not here for high notes, we're here to watch two absolute masters who have sung these roles uncounted times for all the great houses. So it was all the more moving to hear Baltsa not only sing her first B-flat gloriously, but sing the whole phrase with arguably more abandon than in her famed recording. And how wonderful to see Domingo in recital, giving a full acting performance as well - singing to Baltsa as he would in performance. You can easily see why he was chosen to act in the movie versions of Carmen and Traviata. Check out the Karajan/Freni/Carreras/Baltsa Aida if you get a chance - Baltsa's performance is jaw-dropping in the judgement scene.
I was there ... The whole evening was so boring with all the stars in her prime .. and then these two old veterans in the dawn of her careers .. the audience was exited after 5 seconds ...
Qué hace Domingo?! Pués como siempre. Una voz espléndida, pero haciendo trampas y no siendo honesto a la partiutra. Como no puede con el si bemol tendido, lo acorta, roba el tiempo y se adapta unos tiempos rápidos para que no le pese. Cuando ya no sé puede cantar un rol a una cierta edad por motivos evidentes hay que ser honestos. Que quede claro que no soy un crítico de Domingo ni de nadie.
caspartanus1 no roba nada, mira la fecha del vídeo, 2005, placido sencillamente en un concierto le da el pie a la Baltsa como puede, una nota no invalida una interpretación no queramos ser unos talibanes del Belcanto, me quedo con este Radames antes que con todos los que se atreven a cantar hoy en día, si Kauffman es lo mejor que hay, habría que hacérselo mirar.
I love them as artists but he is old and she was never a dramatic mezzo even if she had temperament. She is somewhat a falcon in range but started as coloratura mezzo. Voice was never egalized but who cares?
Eh basta con questa storia della Baltsa che non è un mezzosoprano. Non si fanno 40 anni di carriera se canti in un registro che non è il tuo. Poi la voce della Baltsa ha i ben noti difetti che tutti sanno..ma a mio parere rimane comunque una grande artista,non per nulla amata da un direttore come Karjan. Altrimenti è come la storia di Leo Nucci che qualche "grande" intenditore sostiene che non è un baritono ma un tenore. E allora ribadisco anche nel suo caso che non si fanno 50 di carriera cantando in un altro registro..altrimenti ti massacri le corde vocali. Quindi per favore smettiamole con queste "novelle"!!!
I lost the count how many times I have seen this clip. Baltsa is unbeatable here. Bravoooo
viva AGNES
grande temperamento e bella voce.
So far the best amneris radames duet
Viva la Baltsa, the lioness!
Superba Baltsa !
To anybody who says that she cannot sing: You are crazy!
She was great in the 70s. She’s bad here.
Puikus duetas!
Profesionalai,atiduodantys save iki begalybės!
BRAVA AGNES ! GRANDISSIMA !!!
Brava!!!!!

They sound bad. And overpowered by the orchestra.
a 64 anni i tanto declamati colleghi o erano in pensione o concertavano canzonette onore alle armi testa cuore e voce grande placido

25 years later, this was 2005
She outshines domingo soooooooo easily
Baltsa bravooooooooooooooooooo ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
She spreads her voice so much. She is certainly not in the league of Simionato, Cossotto, Bumbry or many others. Domingo......nasal and throaty
Brava Baltsa!!!
And THAT folks is how the scene is sung! 😉
Really? Listen to Dominguez/Del Monaco ‘51 for how it actually should be sung.
Who is the excellent conductor?
Daniele Gatti !
Agnes Baltsa правит бал.
I was there ... The whole evening was so boring with all the stars in her prime .. and then these two old veterans in the dawn of her careers .. the audience was exited after 5 seconds ...
Both way past their prime.

Domingo deja de robar !!!!

Baltsa was great in the 70s.
due vocalità poco adatte à questo capolavoro .
non mi piace affatto .
Baltsa was great in the 70s, but not here.
Awful nasal Domingo
La Baltsa é é terribile...non é un mezzosoprano per cui pompa in basso per inventarsi un suono
stupito!!!
Eh basta con questa storia della Baltsa che non è un mezzosoprano. Non si fanno 40 anni di carriera se canti in un registro che non è il tuo.
Poi la voce della Baltsa ha i ben noti difetti che tutti sanno..ma a mio parere rimane comunque una grande artista,non per nulla amata da un direttore come Karjan.

Quindi per favore smettiamole con queste "novelle"!!!
She was fabulous in the 70s, but she’s bad here.
@@vima8680 Not really. Baltsa had lost her technique by this point in her career, so she sounds bad.
