Die vielleicht die beste Interpretation dieses Duetts. Giuseppe Scandola habe ich vor vielen Jahren als Amonasro gehört und gesehen. Eine grossartige Stimme mit einer enormen Intensität. Maria Chiara war eine der besten Aida, die es je gab.
MARIA CHIARA è stata l'Aida di riferimento per ben 10 anni consecutivi più altre presenze in Arena, sempre al top... G. SCANDOLA il miglior "" Amonasro"" di ogni tempo, voce piena possente, brunita ti penetrava nelle vene, un uragano di voce!!!!!!! in Arena aspettavamo questo duetto come uno dei momenti più importanti di tutta l'opera. Eccelsi entrambi!!!!!!!! (un vecchio corista) beautiful🌹
When I was a child (8-9 year old), in a remote small town in the Alps of the Veneto region, I had a school teacher who taught us pieces of opera, one of which was ‘Va Pensiero’, Nabucco, Giuseppe Verdi: he was Giuseppe Scandola. Pity that even in Italy now arts and music are so much neglected, everything revolving around business.
In my previous post I forgot to say thanks so much for this homage to my dear great school teacher in my mountains home town in Italy: it brings back so many memories... Giuseppe Scandola was not only a great opera singer, but a great person too, making us children love music because of his human approach to teaching and his contagious passion.
Strepitoso duetto,eseguito da due grandi Interpreti!!! Avevo ascoltato questo baritono in Arena e fu una meraviglia...una voce piena di armonici in ogni registro forse il migliore Amonasro insieme a Guelfi (Giangiacomo)!!! L'Aida della signora Chiara non è da meno!!! Grazie
My beloved primary school teacher in Italy: Giuseppe Scandola. He was a great teacher! He thought us children Va Pensiero, from Nabucco, and I still remember it.
io l'ho cnosciuto, è un personaggio molto simpatico, canta con le mani in tasca, che voce paurosa!! girava l'Europa in macchina da solo di teatro in teatro, un personaggio d'altri tempi. Coi soldi guadagnati ha fatto la casa a tutti i figlio, un vero padre di famiglia di una volta, senza grilli per la testa, tutti i soldi andavano alla famiglia. un grande oltre che simpatico una voce veramente paurosa e timbro stupendo.
It's one the best Nile's scenes who I have seen.Maria Chiara has the possesion of a phenomenal dramtic voice,and Scandola,well,to add something over his Amonasro it's only redundant.
It's the best considering all the versions than I've listen of this "Nile scee"Aida whit her father,Wonder,the perfect clearly voices and register are a wonderful exposition.
@XP11XP A fat record contract with either DECCA or DGG I guess. Then he might have had a career like Cappuccilli who (let's be honest) did not have half the voice of Scandola.
I did not know Scandola, but he is an authentic baritone with a very natural, non-artificial voice ... like that of many of his best-known colleagues. Ms. Chiara was a great Aida.
TREMENDOUS! I was just browsing around youtube and thought, I haven't heard the Nile Scene from Aida for a long time and ...Chiara...WOW, what drama and passion and a voice to match. Where have you been all my life? And Scandola, a real baritone with real dramatic presence. BRAVI! to the tenth power!
This rarity is certainly another sign of the decline of opera singing over the past couple of decades. Dramatic in the true sense, no scooping up to the note, no excessive vibrato. Both are excellent. Having said that however, it doesn’t quite reach the sublime musicality for instance of Price and Merrill on their early 60’s recording, their singing on that occasion is simply beyond glorious.
Having seen both Price and Chiara in Aida ,on stage, and admired both, my preference would be Chiara/ Scandola, it has , for me, more dramatic impetus being live, and of course, they are Italian, which adds so much, and also, this post is not about Price
Wonderful voice from Scandola but people seem to think 'the louder the better' as though that's all that matters. Sure he is louder than Cappuccilli, Taddei, Gobbi. He has little of their artistry.
Steve Bell in opera voice comes first. Having voice is artistry in opera. It is like vocal olympics after all. The most developed powerful voices are most able to impart the dramatic impact of the music
meravigliosi entrambi .
grazie di questa bellissima testimonianza.

Aiuto, due mostri! E non temo smentite ... non smetto di ascoltarli

Che meraviglia! Non conoscevo né Scandola né Chiara che trovo sublimi interpreti, soprattutto Scandola trasmette dramma e passione ad ogni nota.
Oh my God, this is the best Verdi baritone i have ever heard! I stumbled across the VHS in a library today. Pity there aren't more recordings of him.
Amazing singing! This is real opera!
Phenomenal Baritone 🏆🌟
Esplêndido.
Grandi
TREMENDO!!!! SIN PALABRAS!!!! Gracias por compartirlo!!!

Un Amonasro titanico !
Enrico Maria Marabelli he is. Amonasro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only just found this singer,what a surprise and a fantastic voice for Verdi. Thanks for posting, one learns something new every day.
Great cast! Wow

How sad that this is the only video of Scandola on YT, but I am most grateful. Thanks

Superb, this is such a key moment in the opera, and my particular favourite, they capture the mood exactly, bravo !
Dove si può trovare il video integrale di questa recita?

Wonderful voice from Scandola but people seem to think 'the louder the better' as though that's all that matters. Sure he is louder than Cappuccilli, Taddei, Gobbi. He has little of their artistry.
Steve Bell he is great in his own right!!what a baritono!!!!!!!!!

He is not louder than Cappuccilli!!!!
Undoubtable,the Amonasro's Guelfi is the best.
Amonastro - Titta Ruffo,Danise,Tibbett,Reali,Bastianini,De Falchi,Taddei, Petroff,Popov etc. etc. etc....
Strepitoso Scandala! Maria Chiara è forse l'ultimo grande soprano nel classico stile italiano?
