Pure Pavarotti. Power, purpose, perfection. Honestly, who comes close? He is otherworldly. He truly was kissed by God to have such a gift.....and he knew it.
This is training. Almost everyone has the gift of song. All it takes is much hard work, and something genuine in the heart. Many do lack the second. They go their whole lives singing on fake emotion rather than just existing as they are and singing from the heart plainly without need for any acting
@@stone301 Yes, Pav spent 6 yrs just practicing scales for the most part when he first was taken under wing. Opera singers are athletes and they must train their bodies and voices with hard work and sacrifice. However, you can have a lion heart for singing, you can work like a mule, but without God-given talent, most will seldom make it. And if they do, they will not last decades like Pav did. Be well.
The ease is evident not just in the release of his High C, but how gently his tongue rests behind his teeth, no shaking of jaw or tongue. Its easy, seamless...just great.
I have always loved this aria, nearly five minutes of full on singing (nowhere to his with this one) towards the end of the aria you hear him soar above the orchestra without any strain simply brilliant singing.
He was larger than life itself. I also love his performance in Paris, for a concert of this song, around 1977. One thing I did wish was for him to sing together with Soprano Julie Andrews. They received the Kennedy Center honors together however.

1979 film made in Modena with Cond. Leone Magiera and a model for the Mimi, as it was not a performance of Boheme, but a video of the aria, he recorded several more arias that day in 1979.
@@georgioverini2299 It was a film made in 1979 in Modena at the opera house with the lady model you see, she isn't a singer and Leone Magiera Cond. it was not a complete performance, but a film they made and recorded under good studio Conditions, that was why no applause at the end of the aria, they video recorded some arias and among them this Boheme aria, also Vesti La Giubba, Recondi Armonita (from Tosca) and Nessun Dorma, probably even more that I don't know about.
Peg Chandler while wish to sing like him my whole life. What is ironic for me and kinda akward is that my singing voice is bass but I sometimes try to sing life him. It is suicide. XD I tried 2X, a christmas song, Adeste Fidele (Oh come o ye faithful). At least a co-sister recognize it and told me "like I like that Pavarotti way... (something like that). But my breath effort was hard. The second time was in actual mass. Yes. Well at least I tried. What a waste he passed away.
PAVAROTTI IS TRULY THE KING OF HIGH Cs. I listened to Caruso and Bjorling singing this same song earlier and they cannot match the power and high level notes of Pavarotti.
@@ursmue1937 Well i said my opinion but that's true. Gigli and Caruso were phenomenal. Lanza decided to start singing after hearing the Great Caruso. Gigli had a great voice but i prefer other tenor of his period like Pertile
I realized the first time I became aware of Pavarotti was during the 3 tenors. I thought to myself yes he can sing opera but I am not a fan. It’s when I started to listen to his earlier works, I was being wowed. What’s the difference between his voice on this video and the three tenors circuit?
Quite magnificent. Pavarotti at his best, better than one or two versions he recorded in the studio. I do think that the little known lyrical tenor from Azerbijan, the late Rashid Bebudov, rendered the aria's High C more beautifully than any of his fellow tenors, including Pavarotti here.
@@jaytamayo4694 I believe this was a taping of individual arias (in costume) for the BBC. You can see this same clip in the tribute documentary "Luciano Pavarotti a Life in Seven Arias"... there are clips of that documentary on youtube, I think.
@@edwardcaulfield67 Look at her face! There's a great profile shot, early in the video. Plus, I've seen videos of Freni playing Mimi, with that same wig!
Perfection does exist.
The greatest tenor ever.
AGREE!
of course he is
The one and only Maestro Pavarotti. Bravo forever!

@@stone301 hah! A little bit there, but thats okay, I meant for the high notes. His voice is extremely stable in general.
A very beautiful rendition by Luciano Pavarotti. We may have taken him for granted while he was here with us, but not anymore.
Very well done, one of his best versions of all.
Wish Luciano Pavrolotti was still alive
The emotions and soul he puts in invites my soul to float. When he shakes the head 2:22 wow!
Best high C ever👍
Game set and match Pavarotti....untouchable on that form
My ansolute favorite opera aria and my favorite version performed with perfection from the maestro!
MERAVIGLIOSO LUCIANO PAVAROTTI!!!
@TheWiseMonkey8888 year?
Esta es, sinceramente, la mejor versión que le he escuchado al Pava. Está divino, en su época dorada, un legato envidiable!!!
Non si puó essere piú bravo ,MAESTRO PER SEMPRE ❤️❤️
Godly voice! More than magnificent, that is the best thing I can discribe his voice.
I have always loved this aria, nearly five minutes of full on singing (nowhere to his with this one) towards the end of the aria you hear him soar above the orchestra without any strain simply brilliant singing.
El mas grande tenir de todos los tiempos..!!
Una verdadera voz celestial, un milagro y un prodigio de la naturaleza y la belleza vocal. Bravo maestro Pavarotti, cuántas cosas bellas nos legó!!!
2021 He is perfect, and still the BEST of the great Masters!!!
Without a doubt one of the very best Che Gelidas I’ve heard and I’ve been listening to opera for a loooooong time
Agreed, from a film he made of it, but no date is given.
@@shicoff13981977
Спасибо Большое! Браво! Bravo !!!🙏🙌💐💐💐

LUCIANO PAVAROTTI SINGING BLESSINGS FOR EVERYONE TYVM ♥
Único a cantar essa ária devidamente perfeito
Talvez a melhor interpretação desta ária! Impressionante!
nem de longe. Pavarotti abusava da potência. Uma voz linda, sem dúvida, e poderosa, mas o lirismo sofre as vezes.
Linda voz. Es uno de mis tenores prederidos.
Brilliant performance
Beautiful
That's what you call a live performance. Take that ABBA....
Luciano Pavarotti sempre il meglio te per sempre
he gelida manina,
se la lasci riscaldar.
Cercar che giova?
Al buio non si trova.
Ma per fortuna
é una notte di luna,
e qui la luna
l'abbiamo vicina.
Aspetti, signorina,
le dirò con due parole
chi son, e che faccio,
come vivo.
Vuole?
Chi son? Sono un poeta.
Che cosa faccio? Scrivo.
E come vivo? Vivo.
In povertà mia lieta
scialo da gran signore
rime ed inni d'amore.
Per sogni e per chimere
e per castelli in aria,
l'anima ho milionaria.
Talor dal mio forziere
ruban tutti i gioelli
due ladri, gli occhi belli.
V'entrar con voi pur ora,
ed i miei sogni usati
e i bei sogni miei,
tosto si dileguar!
Ma il furto non m'accora,
poiché, poiché v'ha preso stanza
la speranza!
Or che mi conoscete,
parlate voi, deh!
Parlate. Chi siete?
Vi
Dizione unica grande Luciano!!!

Incredible.
Luciano!! E mai più
This is so beautiful! Thank You for giving us this treasure!! Hi Peg Chandler, I wish I could have been there! He was so wnderful!
I don't know if it was a studio recording or a live performance but one thing is unanimous: perfect rendition.
It's pretty clear that it was live perfomance. The fragment of a show.

@@shicoff1398 Ok, but I meant he really sang it all. Without this TV stuff like opening his mouth while studio recording sounding on background.
@@georgioverini2299 Yes, it was not lip synced, and they video taped the aria's he sang that day in the opera house.
@@shicoff1398 What are you talking about? Absolutely obvious he sang it in studio and the better take is what we see.
Thank you so much! This is wonderful! :-) I wish I could sing like him for one day!

incomparable brilliance from the tenor who had it all including the kitchen sink
Che dire... Splendido!!!
amazing !!!!

Sin palabras.

Absolute perfection😊
This gives me goose bumps!😯🤭🤗💪❤️🌹🎭👍✨✨✨✨✨❗
The Best.
BRAVO MAESTRO
And he nailed the Hi C.
bravissimo👏
BRAVO !!!
omg...never die..
Best rendition of this Aria . He and Corelli
Andrea Ottelli - no, The big Lanza.
@@ursmue1937 Lanza was good for being an Hollywood actor. But he was no match for Corelli o Pavarotti or Del Monaco
Andrea Ottelli - 🤣 The great Pavarotti, in Interview in French TV, 12. Dezember 1984, says , the greatest tenor in history, Gigli, Lanza, Caruso 😜
@@ursmue1937 Well i said my opinion but that's true. Gigli and Caruso were phenomenal. Lanza decided to start singing after hearing the Great Caruso. Gigli had a great voice but i prefer other tenor of his period like Pertile

Aucun défaut jamais en ne t'oublie pas jamais

Qué voz
Luciano, Luciano 🥲
...and this is in the original key.
Bravo !
Very good 👍 👏 👌 😀 ☺️
Fantastico
5 1/2 seconds of high C........and it coulda been 10. Is there anybody else?? NO!
Beautiful

Age, primarily. His voice was unbelievably crisp and even had more color when he was younger.
It was still incredibly beautiful in later life. Listen to his Rondine al nido from the first Three Tenors in 1990. Stunning.
Sen ne güzel bi detaysın ya
The King tenor.
Bravo!!
(Hawever, What is the "leo us pe reonzeo'?)
What year is this extraordinary aria? Bravi maestro!!!

Please, do you have details of this performance? And could you please put them into the description?
when & where did he perform this aria?? Rip...Maestro Pavarotti!

Looked like Mirella Freni was Mimi!
@@brookeggleston9314 don't think it's Freni though their is a complete recording of the opera with Freni and Pavarotti .
