What a thrill to be able to hear this event. I couldn't sleep and stumbled across this, as I often do on UTUBE. Now I definitely won't sleep but for the best of reasons! A very special night!
Volevo solo prendermi un momento per esprimere il mio sincero apprezzamento per il tuo aiuto nel caricare quel vecchio programma televisivo con le leggende dell'opera. La tua generosità è stata davvero inestimabile e sono così grato per tutto il tempo e gli sforzi che hai dedicato per realizzarlo.
Truly, the term “star studded” had a different meaning than it currently does. It’s an overdose of legends all at the same time. I feel giddy! If the audience had hoarse voices for days, I’d understand - I’d almost feel incapable of functioning after attending something like this!
Was there. Never forget that entrance of Birgit in that Rosenkavalier set. It was very emotional. She pushed us back in our seats with that voice of hers. Sat, April 22, 1972
I seem to remember seeing a youtube video of her entrance and subsequent performance (although not the full 15 minutes of music, just this final part). But I can no longer find any video showing her entrance.
Sehr schönes Video mit großartigen Leistungen! Die "alte" Met eben! Für mich einer der Höhepunkte, Teresa Zylis-Gara u. Franco Corelli! Ich wurde etwas wehmütig, was wäre Corelli für ein großartiger und individueller Otello geworden/gewesen! Herbert von Karajan soll ihn ja mehrfach zu dieser Rolle gedrängt haben und versucht ihn zu überreden!
na was ich da alles entdecke. Ich bin gerade beim Staubwischen, und ich dachte mir gerade was kommt, das höre ich mir an, um nicht stumm hir heumzuhantieren. Und da sehe ich was du schriebst. Na ja wie immer absolut wahr! Lass Dir gut gehen, LG jános
@@janosvas8597 hallochen, wir machen hier in Polen Fronleichnam-Prozession.... Und bei Putzen stelle ich auch Oper an. Wir hatten unlängst wieder Livestream aus der Met Madame Butterfly mit Asmik Grigorian. Ich habe diese Livestream Sache entdeckt, wirklich gut ....nächster Termin ist 11.6 Chenier aus Govent Garden. Leider aber mit Jonas Kaufmann
Rise(pronounced REEzuh) Stevens lived from 1913 to 2013. She had a long and successful career at the Met and her roles included Carmen, Octavian, Orfeo, Cherubino and Delilah.
My God! These were the ones I grew up with (I was 6 when this took place).....their recordings Anyway.....some of them retired in my youth but most were still singing into my adulthood...and one....is ...still....singing.....NOW (2024) PLACIDO.....Opera fans of the 21st century just don't understand that singers like Nilsson ever existed. She could bring down the house every time. It is a marvelous debate as to from 1960 to her retirement, if Nilsson was the definitive Isolde, Brunhilde, Turandot, Salome and Elektra ALL......
For over 20 years olympic singing has sucked. Or most of the time. I could go into reasons for this, but I don't have time to give a dissertation about the science of singing. Thanks for this, dear man!!
@@allenjones3130 the good ol days! I think many have conditioned into the pop culture that we have today. Last year during the Kennedy Center Honors I heard from a few non opera fan who saw the Carmen/Faust excerpts and thought they were amazing.
No, Risë, and I love you dearly. The conductor of the "Manon Lescaut" Act II duet was not Molinari-Pradelli. Or am I somehow conflating my galas? The mind starts to go, especially about things no one else cares about anymore....
Well... THIS is a Gala!!!! THESE are TRUE voices!!!! These are TRUE ARTISTS!!! Thank you, thank you!
Sadly, there are no voices like these today. Magnificent!

Wonderful. Thsnk you. Nilsson is like nothing else. What a voice, what spectacular singing, what style, class and graciousness....❤
They were all very good!

Grandi voci. Grandi artisti tutti.
Ma Franco Corelli sta su un altro piano. Inarrivabile.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
don't be silly
It does not get any better then this GALA night...the GOLDEN AGE of OPERA rises into a time only described as breathless and goose bumps!❤❤❤
*Silver Age
Absolutely 💯
Some fabulous artists on show Tucker was brilliant for his age A truly great cast
Right. He was 58 here -- just 4 years before his death in 1975.

Thank you, forever, for this. I've always wished to see it. THIS is great singing.
All great singers! But sutherland and nilsson and truly the best
Great singing like this is gone and it is never coming back....
Найкраще , що можна почути !
Велика вдячність
I was overjoyed to come across this video of these magnificent artists. They dont make singers like this anymore. Thank you. Subscribing!
Як на мене, це найкращій концерт в історії оперного мистецтва. Фінал з Великою Біргітт - найкраще з того, що взагалі буває! Це шедевр на всі часи.
Caballé-Domingo , greatest in Manon Lescaut duetto !!!❤❤
My beloved Caballe'
I bought the recording of this event the minute it came out.
Che meraviglia. L'età d'oro della lirica

You certainly were fortunate. Thank you for letting us know the date of the event.

Once In A Lifetime !!

Unfortunately the performances are not complete. And not all of them are here. It would be great to see the whole recording.
This was the first time I saw Pavarotti on television!
1972 und jetzt haben wir 2024, 52 Jahre unglaublich! Großartig diese RUclips! E grazie a Domenico, saluti da Vienna
43:00 what an Otello he would have been.....

Love Risë Stevens..
Lincoln Center looks beautiful, even in black and white!
Steven's. So classy. ❤❤❤❤❤

The first and the final performance 👏👏👏👏👏💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
SO EXCITING! HOW I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE WHOLE GALA.
I've had this album for many years
Finally,it came out in cd years after this production
Anno 1971 quando Corelli era verso la fine della sua gloriosa carriera
Bravi, bravi...!!!
Соцветие гениев!) Великолепно....какая эпоха
For over 20 years olympic singing has sucked. Or most of the time. I could go into reasons for this, but I don't have time to give a dissertation about the science of singing. Thanks for this, dear man!!
Thank you!!!
I wish I had been there.
WHO is the soprano next to Corelli ?
Tersa Żulis - Gara
Sorry. Teresa Żylis-nGara
Divine Franco Corelli!
Ma non c'era anche Teresa Stratas con Donde lieta uscì dalla Boheme di Puccini?
thank you so muchhhhh for this
Wow. Was this actually on television?
Does anyone know when ?
Yes, it was on TV, but not on PBS. The show was aired on a commercial network, CBS!
@@allenjones3130 the good ol days! I think many have conditioned into the pop culture that we have today. Last year during the Kennedy Center Honors I heard from a few non opera fan who saw the Carmen/Faust excerpts and thought they were amazing.
What year ?
Date?
I wonder why Maria Callas wasn't there? Was this during her period of early retirement?
Callas had not sung at the Met since 1964. Her recital tour a few years later showed she was at the end of her career.
What year was this?
April 22, 1972
non lo so
Tebaldi ????
La Peters.... mai riuscita a parlare bene l'italiano... terrible accent...but ( però) voce d'angeli !!!!!
53:00 SOUNDS LIKE WE RE AT THE SUPER BOWL!
Qualcosa con del Monaco?
Mario si stava ritirando dalle scene. All'inizio degli anni '70 fece solo alcune registrazioni.
Veramente si è ritirato nel 1975
This was the Met gala, at this point Del Monaco hadn't sung at the Met in something like 13 years.
Luciano hadn't grown his beard yet!
Teresa Zyli Scara.. (sp!)
Tutti bravi ma manca il Divino Mario del Monaco.
Esatto manca lui ma essendo divino non poteva avere confronti e gli altri ben contenti..
hi luchiaon paver;tytl
No, Risë, and I love you dearly. The conductor of the "Manon Lescaut" Act II duet was not Molinari-Pradelli.

Abbastanza noiosi
Noiosi? Ma che dice? Se lei trova noiosa questa inarrivabile parata di star... quando va all'opera oggi che fa? Dorme?
Explain
Leontyne=perfection
