I met and chatted with her twice. Once in Newark, 1974, at Turandot with Birgit, Domingo and Albanese, and once after a 1977 Met performance while walking to her car. She always loved to talk to her fans, even at 90!
I grew up living next door to her. I spent a lot of time in her house and was given her old cat when she died. She died when I was 14. It's mentioned in my IMDB bio -- David D. Mattia.
True, but most of her recordings were made during the 1920s. This was during the '30s, where there was a massive leap forward in sound recording quality
This gives a much better idea of what is obviously a superb voice than the recordings I have previously heard.The sound seems to involve her whole body. We don't hear that much anymore
Bei so einer schönen und ausdrucksstarken Stimme ist es egal, in welcher Sprache sie singt. Und wäre es Chinesisch, es wäre wunderbar. Schön, dass es dieses Live Dokument von ihr gibt!
The old semaphore school of acting! Gorgeous middle and lower notes, open, present singing.... only the ultimate finish on the high notes (as at 5:15) is missing.

I think this may be footage of her actually singing, not lip syncing. 1933 could have been filmed either way. At age 46 she is still in vibrant voice.
The PROFESSIONAL (?) SOPRANOS TODAY should LISTEN TO JERITZA AND LEARN WHAT SINGING IS ALL ABOUT
They should listen, but they will not do it. We live in the era of Kitsch

In Forrest Hills?! Have you met Liesl?
You are very fortunate. From what I have read she was a charming character.
@@operabilia She lived at this time and died in Newark, NJ.
Sublime.
What a privilege to hear and see her sing. We are lucky this film , however imperfefct it may be exists. She was certainly a great artiste.
A Legend... great voice...and great character... Forgotten beauty and quality...
Wow her voice sounds much bigger than in her recordings.

Stupendous artist with a big beautiful voice. And so even!
A thrilling glimpse of a legendary diva!
....thank you for this!
Es maravilloso rescatar y remasterizar todas estas joyas musicales del pasado ¡Bravo!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
She sang on the breath, kept the voice in front of her, and didn't manufacture the tone.
Didn t know this existed !! Thanks so much for uploading this !!! Hope the complete film is available !! Bless you !!
WoW Wonderful
Jeritza, diva hasta la médula: una Aída rubia...
Wow, you adjusted the pitch? I can't imagine how you managed that. I'm impressed, as well thankful to you for posting this.
Wow!
Maria Jeritza (born Marie Jedličková; 6 October 1887 - 10 July 1982)
No wonder Puccini loved her.

I have a photo of me at het grave site.
❤❤❤
La voce è di bella qualità...ma l''intonazione è precaria in più di un punto.
Don’t people hear her a little under the pitch throughout?
Yes, I thought it was just me !
Yes - it's painful.
@@ralphoperaphileyou are apparently more sensitive to pain than Puccini and Strauss
@@onkelgreifenklau That's meaningless
@@ralphoperaphile you’ve got a point - to compare you with Strauss and Puccini is indeed meaningless :-)
Caspita ! In Tedesco
DAS WAR NOCH OPER
O czym ten dyrygent opowiada rekami ale to chyba nie jest jezyk migowy JERITZA PIEKNIE ale ten niemiecki no coz mozna i tak
mindless conductor!
