There are very few performances which perfectly capture the essence of the respective piece of art. These are the ones for which it truely was written. Maria Callas performed in many of them
Quand le génie d’une voix transcende la partition pour se fondre dans l’esprit d’un compositeur génial (qui a composé cette scène sans jamais « l’entendre » pour de vrai) on a ici une toute petite idée de ce que quelques extrêmement rares humains peuvent atteindre dans certaines galaxies (mais sont-ils vraiment humains ???)
Very random fact: my car's number plate includes the letters DLZ. I didn't pick it, but I was delighted when I received the plates! Of course now my car's name is Delizia and I play this aria in my head whenever I walk up to it.
The contrast between the first act and the third... She was a genius, but then so was Visconti. How lucky was the public of the time! I recently watched this interview with Callas and Visconti: ruclips.net/video/NSGJVkonOks/видео.htmlsi=cd6cKQqgYc1AJFxj Their mutual understanding, respect, and affection was heartwarming. ❤️
Ι personally love Jolie, havent seen the movie yet, it is SO difficult to portray a Genius like Callas and Jolie declared she spent months trying to learn how to look while singing and she also said that Maria died being very lonely and she would have been so happy to see how much people LOVE her nowadays... so Im already biased positively towards her
@LohengrinO I'm sure she had enough people around her when she was at her "stardom" years and after that. Besides, Jolie nails this mid - atlantic accent. Except for the fact that she has a higher speaking voice and probably didn't smoke now.
29 May 1955!! Maybe the most Historic night at La Scala!! ❤️
Masterpiece!!❤❤❤
Unsurpassed! ❤❤❤❤❤
....Ecco la meraviglia per le mie orecchie!!!! Quanto mancate su questo pianeta....immensa Maria Callas....sempre nel cuore e nella mente..❤❤❤
I miss her too dear Elsa 😢
@@LohengrinO
So do I very much.
Anche per me❤

Nothing without meaning or by luck in life
Grazie Theo❤ Maria amava Violetta e la Traviata. E Visconti è stato un grande regista. Ho visto Sonnambula, ma non Traviata
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ooooooooo!!!❤❤❤❤
Traviata Scala 1955 ?🎉
For sure.

...and how lucky they found each other, Geniouses suffer when they collaborate with common minds
@@LohengrinO and as we know, sadly there was plenty of that for Callas
❤❤❤
By a look of 1st excerpt, i think Jolie did a wonderful job for portraying Callas
