ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. This is truly GREAT singing. And to get the Scala audience like that. It is a singer’s DREAM to achieve what she did there. Legendary. Historic. DIVA ASSOLUTA.
SHIRLEY VERRETT was one of the greatest ever...... She went from Mezzo to Soprano and switched back and forth. She was able to accomplish this like no other female singer. I cherish my Verrett recordings and absolutely venerate her. REST, well, Dear Miss Verrett.
Con orgoglio posso dire di aver assistito a tutte le riprese di queste edizione ..tutte ..ero ragazzino e per l'occasione imparai tutto il libretto a memoria . Grandissima Verrett
idem. non ero tanto ragazzino. indimenticabili veramente tutti in stato di grazia. che periodo meraviglioso quello di Abbado anche le repliche inizio anni 80 con Dimitrova
Verrett is the best mezzo in many decades, probably of all times! And sung fantastically well many soprano roles, even in the belcanto repertoire like a sensacional Norma I applauded at the Met. Goddess!!!
La plus grande Lady Macbeth de tous les temps avec Callas bien sûr, simplement sublime avec la direction magistral de Claudio Abbado avec les forces de la Scala de Milan, tous en état de grâce
Extraordinaire ! Il n'y a pas d'autres mots ! Une tigresse avec un chant ciselé comme un pure bijoux !! ( On ne peut que pleurer quand on voit ce que propose la Scala maintenant !)
It is such a pity we don't have this performance commercially recorded on tape or dvd. Probably the best Lady alongside Callas and Dimitrova. Golden age of opera.
Great heavens..... a voice that is one a century, without doubt.... the power, the range, the passion, the everything!! Having heard this I am completely taken aback.. as we say in England.. "enough to take off the top of your head"
Shirley Verrett sang both Part 1 and Part 2 of 'Les Troyens' on very short notice at the MET in the early 197'0s. It was a triumph.. She was always outstanding in her many roles. A truly outstanding singer for any era.
Great as Lady Macbeth Her facial gestures and body language is also very important.I love singers that are able to perform such large tessituras like Simionato. Sometimes they can be a soprano and others a mezzo. I m not surprised about the long ovation.Very good election. And of course,you ll love the part of Macbeth with one of uour favourite baritones... Bright aria JURISMICH.Nice you brought it in.Even the long cape helps makes an impressive mise en scene...
Davvero oh. Meli soprattutto è come il prezzemolo, lo trovo dappertutto; Don Carlo, Un Ballo, Ernani. Due produzioni di Ernani nel 2022 (Opera di Roma e Maggio Musicale Fiorentino) e tutte due con Meli. Un altro no eh? Pare brutto.
Anch'io ero una giovinetta, e conservo gelosamente il cofanetto con i 3 dischi di questa edizione: Shirley Verrett, Piero Cappuccilli (assai compianto!) e Placido Domingo nella parte di Mc Duff. Splendida realizzazione!
Quelle lubie de mettre tout en rapport avec la Callas et ne pas pouvoir se sortir la Callas de la tête. Il y a eû d'autres interprètes qui ont été magnifiques dans ce rôle : Léonie Rysanek, Elisabeth Connell, Birgit Nilsson, Grace Bumbry, Renata Scotto, Gwyneth Jones, Raina Kabaiwanska, Christa Ludwig, Ghena Dimitrova... Il serait temps qu'on déloge la Callasmanie du répertoire lyrique. L'ovation pour Shirley Verrett a été plus que méritée. Quelle merveille!
@@rowley555 Estoy absolutamente de acuerdo. Y añado que, afortunadamente, esa lista de grandes artistas es larga y en ella se encuentra Verrett, por supuesto.
Can you imagine the surprise of the Milanesi, having heard her in Dalila, or Eboli, when they heard her reaching her high D flat pianissimo with such ease in the sleepwalking scene? And she sang Lady Macbeth from 1975 regularly until 1988.
Certi commenti sarebbero da evitare,non foss'altro che tendono a stilare classifiche del tutto lecite ma alquanto soggettive e perciò opinabili. Ogni quadro ha i propri toni ed i propri colori che possono o meno incontrare i nostri gusti,ma dire che Giotto è meglio di Caravaggio lascia il tempo che trova. Comunque, buona giornata.
This is a case of Spain's classic singing LaTonadilla For ages critics have been talking about who was the best singing it. Until.one of them with good criteria said.I can tell who sings it best.But it doesn't coincide with who moves it best.In this aria in particular you have to step very strongly...The idea of the cape is very important because it helps her develop the part immensely.And How she moves it.. You should sometimes consider these things plus the fact that a mezz sorano for me is the ideal tessitura.

Ne sono tanto geloso! Adoro La Verrett benche' lei sia da un'altra era! Grazie - dal Canada!
Shirley Verrett, American operatic soprano, a grandiose voice.
idem. non ero tanto ragazzino. indimenticabili veramente tutti in stato di grazia. che periodo meraviglioso quello di Abbado
anche le repliche inizio anni 80 con Dimitrova
Fortunato davvero
Bravo. Hai fatto bene. Beato te.
Verrett was one of many underrated great singers of the late 20th century ! She as sensational!
Verrett is the best mezzo in many decades, probably of all times! And sung fantastically well many soprano roles, even in the belcanto repertoire like a sensacional Norma I applauded at the Met. Goddess!!!
The great Shirley Verrett. She was possessed. WOW
La plus grande Lady Macbeth de tous les temps avec Callas bien sûr, simplement sublime avec la direction magistral de Claudio Abbado avec les forces de la Scala de Milan, tous en état de grâce
Truly magnificent! Oh, to have heard her live!
Drink it in, dearie. It's nights like this that will carry you for the rest of your days. Damn! Both Verrett and Abbado were on fire!
Fantastica vocalmente e di un fascino assoluto sulla scena. Meravigliosa in una edizione capolavoro del teatro❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely magnificent....
WOW! Beautiful voice and intensity unmatched!
Verrett, great Lady Macbeth !!!!
Восхищена ее леди Макбет!!! Ширли Верретт -- великая певица! Харизматичная и дерзкая! Браво!!!❤
КРАСАВИЦА !!❤❤❤ И ГОЛОС ...!! МОЩНЫЙ, , СЕКСУАЛЬНЫЙ....!!! ,,
Good Lord, this is a gold standard performance! Absolutely thrilling.
L'époque bénie où les chanteurs lisaient les partitions et chantaient les notes écrites et pas celles qu'ils veulent ou peuvent .....
Extraordinaire ! Il n'y a pas d'autres mots ! Une tigresse avec un chant ciselé comme un pure bijoux !! ( On ne peut que pleurer quand on voit ce que propose la Scala maintenant !)
Shirley was always wonderful
I never knew... such presence, power, and beauty. Haunting.
Una voz ESTUPENDA nunca la habia escuchado. Y me gusto mucho su forma y dedicacion a esa romanza. BRAVAA ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

She sounds glorious in this. Wowsers!
Großartig! Ausdrucksstark , perfekt in der Technik! Ein echter Hochgenuss!
FELICITO A LA RAI.
por su excelente trasmision .😊😊
Ella es sin duda una de las más grandiosas Lady Macbeth después de Callas.
Conosco benissimo quest' opera stupenda. Ho assistito a tutte le rappresentazioni! Ero giovane.! Che grande emozione
😊😊❤❤
quando alla scala cantavano e lavoravanodei VERI ARTISTI, non come i meli i salsi i mariti di soprani improbabili di questi tristissimi tempi
Davvero oh. Meli soprattutto è come il prezzemolo, lo trovo dappertutto; Don Carlo, Un Ballo, Ernani. Due produzioni di Ernani nel 2022 (Opera di Roma e Maggio Musicale Fiorentino) e tutte due con Meli. Un altro no eh? Pare brutto.
Era la mejor época de la Verrett !
Really perfect!!! 👏👏👏 Thank you so much for posting it ❤
Brilliant.Thank you for posting♪♫•*♫ •♫♪
Wahnsinn.
Vielen Dank!!
Immensa❤❤❤❤
Emperaora!
Amazing! Possesed!

And Nicolai Ghiaurov as Banquo, a master class of more than perfect singing.
Insieme alla gencer ed alla Callas...la miglior Lady di sempre!
Extraordinary
MARAVILLOSA MEZZO
This is truly up there with the Callas interpretation, wonderful.
Quelle lubie de mettre tout en rapport avec la Callas et ne pas pouvoir se sortir la Callas de la tête. Il y a eû d'autres interprètes qui ont été magnifiques dans ce rôle : Léonie Rysanek, Elisabeth Connell, Birgit Nilsson, Grace Bumbry, Renata Scotto, Gwyneth Jones, Raina Kabaiwanska, Christa Ludwig, Ghena Dimitrova... Il serait temps qu'on déloge la Callasmanie du répertoire lyrique. L'ovation pour Shirley Verrett a été plus que méritée. Quelle merveille!
@@pedromiguel2675 je suis d'accord, mais je dois dire que Scotto a mis sa voix à l'épreuve dans ce rôle
Nunca se podrá apartar a Callas de ningún repertorio. Nunca.
@@manuelprietohernandez4820 we can honor Callas without undermining and still appreciating other great artists.
@@rowley555 Estoy absolutamente de acuerdo. Y añado que, afortunadamente, esa lista de grandes artistas es larga y en ella se encuentra Verrett, por supuesto.
Goddess. Verrett ❤❤❤❤❤.
Straordinaria. Ma nessuna mai come la Callas ❤❤❤❤❤
Nessuna, of course
Can you imagine the surprise of the Milanesi, having heard her in Dalila, or Eboli, when they heard her reaching her high D flat pianissimo with such ease in the sleepwalking scene? And she sang Lady Macbeth from 1975 regularly until 1988.
¡BRAVA..............!
When singers could sing.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
An American ttreasure.....no one else was like her.
She's behind so often throughout. It's not the delay from the singer to the pit, the conductor and Verrett are not agreeing on the tempo. It's clear.
He doesn't seem to care if she cannot breathe. It's a heavy voice, to go faster would ruining her singing.
Quando la RAI era ancora un servizio pubblico e non SPAZZATURA
1:57 so intense
Not only
@@JURISMICH i just like that moment because the voices pierces everything
@@mugrad25 OK
😂❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
it’s powerful and better than modern average but at the trickiest part 6:13 singing line not smooth
Stratosferica
I only wish Abbado had been more sensitive to her and less driven. Great singing.
Many people here said that about Abbado, perhaps it's true.
Anbetungswürdig!
Ongelooflijk,geen woorden,top
Aquí mejor que Callas
If only the audio was better. It's distorting and spiking, making her sound absolutely shrill and awful.
WHY DOES THE COBDUCTOR KEEP PUSHING HER!!IT IS HER ARIA;NOT HIS!!!!
I think remember he said to me he was in a hurry because he had a rendez-vous after.
@@JURISMICH ¿Abbado apuró a Verret porque él tenía una cita? ¡¡Oh!!
@@aliciarealp it was a joke!
Abbado was and is so overrated. Interesting he’s so crude here, usually he’s so faceless.
The conductor is the boss. His or her word is law.
Eh no, la Callas non le allaccia i calzari
Altra voce!
Only Callas could do better.
