First time I've heard this performance of the Verdi Requiem. The quality of the orchestra, soloists, and chorus all sound superb. It's unfortunate the quality of the recording is so poor. I would love to have heard this performance live. Very powerful.
I was privileged to have been part of the chorus of this production. The chorus was made up of the Phildelphia Opera Chorus, Phildelphia Choral Arts Society (i think that was the name) and the Baltimore Symphony Chorus which i was part of. It was a once in a lifetime experience !!
Hello @JohnFranklin. What an amazing experience it must have been! I have to admit, I am new to this “genre” (for lack of a more appropriate/respectful description) and I am extremely curious, it says it was at the Philadelphia Spectrum, was the Spectrum merely a stage, a set, a recording studio if you will, or was this a live event in front of an audience? A search for the Philadelphia Spectrum is what brought me here, and I’m surprisingly confused by the setup. I did not watch the entire performance from start to finish, but in scanning through I found the setup quite unique to put it mildly. I understand that I am replying to a nearly decade old thread, but decided to throw it out into the World Wide Web with the hopes that maybe somebody can shed some light on this or this type of event. Was it live at the Spectrum in front of an audience, or was it merely staged at and recorded in the Spectrum? I never hear applause, so I can reach some sort of conclusion on my own, but I’m still rather intrigued by such an event staged in the historic arena. I would think that there would be many places in Philadelphia to stage such an event; was the Spectrum chosen or known for it acoustics or sound? As I mentioned, I’m just intrigued; thank you in advance for any and all contributions.
@@krachel99 I can answer for John, as I was also in the enormous chorus! :) This was a live performance in front of more than 10,000 people at the since-demolished Spectrum arena, where the Flyers and 76ers played for decades. There was no applause heard until the very end because of the nature of the requiem mass. It's one large work, start to finish. No "breaks" in any conventional sense. It was truly one of the most exciting experiences of my life.
Having sung in the chorus for this performance, I can tell you it was the SECOND full taping of the day for the piece. Each of the four soloists were as fresh and superb as they were in the morning.
My one and only time here on RUclips that I can say, "Hey, that's me!" Granted, just one of hundreds in that very large combined chorus, but still... My God, what an extraordinary experience it was for a then twenty year old member of the outstanding Choral Arts Society of Philadelphia to be singing one of the great works, led by Lorin Maazel and headlined by Luciano freaking Pavarotti! A peak life experience, for sure. "Thank you thank you!" to the poster of the video, as my VHS copy was lost along the way somewhere these past 35 years.
I was also a part of these choruses as a member of the Temple University Concert Choir directed by Alan Harler. These performances (two in one day) were life-changing!
Fabulous soloist starting with our dear Luciano. What an exquisite jewel. God bless you wherever you are. Susan Dunn had an incredibly beautiful voice. What a pity she stopped so soon singing. A fabulous performance. Thanks for posting.
I was in this performance as well (Opera Company of Philadelphia chorus) and I've always said that the the Requiem is my favorite Verdi opera! I'm actually riveted at how good it really is. Back then, it was so huge, it seemed just a bit gimmicky (at least to me). Very grateful to be able to hear it again from a distance. The soloists, including Pavarotti, are all committed and are all excellent. A very moving performance. Thanks for posting.
Susan indeed shines in this concert, like a truly star with a undeniable talent and a great voice. Bravo! At the end, in Libera me part, we can see a amazed Pavarotti before Mrs. Dunn's interpretation.
I must say that was my favorite performance, and I listened to a lot. The Soloists, the Orchestra, THE Conductor!!!! Superb! Goosebumps and tears when listening, and long after. Thank you for uploading such treasure!
Che dire? Meravigliosa esecuzione. Quanto ci mancano Maazel e Luciano. Pochi giorni fa qui a Milano ho assistito ad una esecuzione del Requiem. Sono disperata:: ho dovuto venire du RUclips per consolarmi un po':
This performance is even better than I remembered. All four soloists use their amazing voices beautifully. Burchuladze must have one of the biggest voices ever heard in this music. And both the ladies sing as beautifully as any of the more famous singers that have recorded the Requiem. And the chorus is among the best among all youtube performances of the Requiem.
I was in the chorus and remember it well. It really must have been a great night in the arena. A number of people in the audience commented that it was surprisingly clear even though the reverb in the room was 7 or 8 seconds. The audience was around 14,000 or 15,000 if I recall. It was well organized and Maazel was able to keep it together beautifully. Its great to see it here and relive the night.
@arnoldziffelpig there was a live audience; an audience of 14,000 - 15,000? Because it was from the Philadelphia Spectrum, I’ve been trying to recognize anything even remotely familiar to no avail. I just inquired about the same thing on a different comment. I don’t recognize this as a packed house at the Spectrum.
Absolutely sublime, beautiful and magnificent, I shall listen & watch over & over never tiring of it. Bravo to everyone, and thank you so much for giving me this wonderful performance.
This is a very good video and sound recording , these are 4 excellent soloists , the balance between is very important , this isn't opera and purity of tone is all important . I accept the compliments to Susan Dunn , but Ildiklo Komlosi is a superb mezzo soprano and their voices combine in perfect harmony . Pavarotti has been unrivaled for many years , Paata Burchuladza is a great bass . The Verdi Requiem has been a great favourite since I was given a complete set on 78s for Christmas when I was 16yrs . The singers were Maria Caniglia , Ebe Stignani , Beniamino Gigli and Ezio Pinza , I have always considered this 1939 recording the best ever , having 4 of the greatest principals of the 20th century . Another great recording is with Karajan 1967 , Leontyne Price , Fiorenza Cossotto , Luciano Pavarotti and Nicholai Ghiaurov . I am enjoying this recording immensely on my 55" TV with surround sound , thank you LiricaMondo .
I was very lucky to have recorded this when it was done on TV. I only wish I could find out if the DVD is available for sale. Miss Dunn in Offertorio has the voice of an angel.
Thank you for posting this! I teared up when I realized what it was: a live performance of one of my favorite works featuring arguably the best living lyric soprano, Susan Dunn.
Een van de mooiste muziekstukken die ik ken. ik spaar uitvoeringen uit alle windstreken en elke keer valt weer op met hoeveel enthousiasme zowel profs als amateurs zich uitleven in het Requiem van Verdi. Grazie Giuseppe Verdi.
Majestic Performance, Indeed !! If you are watching in 2022, The Bach Festival Choir and Orchestra of Winter Park is performing this same piece Verdi's Requiem in the brand new and acoustically engineered Steinmetz Hall at the Dr. Phillips Arts Center in Downtown Orlando, Florida USA, on November 6th at 5PM. I am beyond grateful to have the opportunity and the satisfaction to sing Baritone (not a soloist, in the choir) for the second time with such incredible musicians. Omnes Generationes -JS Bach
Verdi trouxe a paixão e os sentimentos de suas óperas ,caldeando-os com o espirito dos valores que regem o mundo dosque se foram desta vida ,criando uma peça vigorosa e transcendente
I have the supreme privilege and honor to perform the Requiem 4 times- once in college and Crane School of Music and 3 times with the Philadelphia Orch. at their summer home in Saratoga Springs, NY with the Saratoga-Potsdam Chorus. Twice with Ormandy and once with Aldo Ceccato- Ormandy was my preference by far! I still get chills during the trumpet section of the Dies Irae!
Único, poetico, angelical. Estoy oyendo desde hace 40 anos pero siempre hay uno que otra interpretación no se ha oido. Este es uno de ellos. Para mi el Réquiem eleva el espirito a nivel místico.
WOW! What a gem. Much thanks for posting! In comparing this performance of Pava's to the early ones, one can tell a slight reduction in power, clarity of tone, and ease of production, but its more than made up for in emotion, color of voice, and placement. One can tell by the expression on his face that Pava was not pleased w/the first few notes, but settled in nicely tho it appeared to take abit more effort than usual---such concentration! The "Hostias" were exquisite, and I still expect to
@appeace1 to see a overflowing basket of lira being lowered from the heavens in front of Pava!!--lol What a sweet soprano voice and a commanding Mezzo and basso! Their winning of the vocal contest was well deserved. Overall a sensational performance by all!
პაატა 1986 წელს პავაროტის ედგა გვერდში და ქართულ ვოკალურ ხელოვნებას აცნობდა მსოფლიოს, ჭორვილელი ხიხო კი იმ დროს რუსეთში იპარავდა მაყუთს, იყიდა საქართველო და მთლად გაათახსირა, გარყვნა!
I just listened to that performance. Both are real good. One of Pavarotti's main virtues was technique. He sang well all his life. He was still on top at over 70. Similar tenors like Giuseppi Di Stefano or Giuseppi Campora lost their voices quite early.
To hear what Susan can really do with this piece (this TV audio isn't the greatest), get the CD/MP3 version she did with Robert Shaw and the Atlanta Symphony. Her voice is the purest clarion call over the entire orchestral tutti in the "Libera Me". She is absolutely astounding!
Shaw's is my very favorite recording of this sumptuous piece to date, and I must say that my decision decision rests largely on Susan's expert musicianship and impassioned vocal expressions. Her meticulous attention to textual nuances and resulting implications is likewise commendable. Brava, brava, brava!
OMG... those voices... always loved Dunn... and what about that HUGE voice Komlosi!!!! but who s that tenor? don t know him! LOL anyways... exquisite cast! love it so much!
Dunn's interpretation is beyond mind-boggling... The best interpreter of this work. However, I find Maazel's tempi too artificial, he drags/slows down a bit in some parts, only to direct attention towards himself. I think had Chailly conducted this, it'd have been the most important recording of them all. They had a special thing going on between each other. Also the recording with Robert Shaw deserves a lot of merit.
Wow Ildiko Komlosi has always had that wobble. Right from the start of her career. She sounded exactly the same in Santuzza at the Met a few years ago with Jose Cura.
Is the audio quality off? The high pitch feedback is unfortunately distracting me from the beauty of the performance. Does anyone have a link to a better recording?

Whatever happened to Susan Dunn? She obviously had a very fine voice but disappeared from the operatic scene after a few brief years. I hope she was not another victim of attempting too many heavy roles early in her career.
+Franco Pappalardo Credo proprio di si. E non per campanilismo, Mozart rimane il genio che e';. Ma la messa da requiem di Verdi e'; un viaggio di andata e ritorno all'oltretomba. Assolutamente impareggiabile.
My friend Ross was going to tell me the story but it never happened. I had tickets to hear her but she suddenly disappeared. I don't think it was vocal.

Neanche a paragone questo Requiem con quello grandioso del 1967 al Teatro Alla Scala, con un Pavarotti mitico.
