The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

Another great opera performance! This romantic duet is from Act One of Puccini's "La Boheme."
Thank you for publishing this gem in good quality! 💝 Please keep the Franco Corelli clips coming 👏👏👏👏👏
So grateful to Ed Sullivan to bringing great stars: Corelli, Julie Andrews, Joan Sutherland to the screen and his people saving the copies of the shows in good quality! Say did Maria Callas ever make an appearance?
Thank you! So well people used to sing.
Beautifully done, and well dressed. 😊
This is what I’ve been waiting for. Thankfully my request has been granted.
Another HD video of maestro Franco Corelli. Very thank you!
Bravo! Thanks for sharing. This video brings back memories of the movie “Moonstruck “ 😊! I’m sure happy that the sixties audio technology had progressed enough to preserve yesterday’s stars in High Fidelity!
Have a great day!
I remember listening to the Saturday Met broadcast. The first time I heard Franco Corelli I was thrilled Je had such beauty and power in his voice. I was sad that his career was cut so short .
At least there are recotdings. Dorothy Kirsten I remember her beautiful voice from The Great Caruso with Mario Lanza, another incredible voice silenced way to soon.
Fantastic La boheme ...Rodolfo Mimi Love you so much!!!
One of the most exuberant and vivid settings of love to music ever.
Thanks For Sharing This ❤
I Love It ❤
It reminds me of that 1987 movie Moonstruck 😮❤
Sublime ❤👏👏
Thank you so much for this jewel ❤️
Nowadays there is nobody like Corelli….with due respect to others….

The correct date is Apr 17, 1966 (Season 19, Episode 31)
Corelli was one of the great tenors of the 20th century. Together with Mario del Monaco, Giuseppe Di Stefano and Carlo Bergonzi he marked the era of the four tenors, in whose shadow many more sang. As can be seen in this recording, he had an imposing physical presence, he was tall, good-looking, which aroused quite a bit of envy. He completed a brilliant career before his retirement in 1976 with 368 performances at the Met, many of which he shared with Tebaldi, Callas's great rival. In an interview after his retirement he stated that in his career there were two sopranos with whom he felt a greater degree of affinity: Callas and Birgit Nilsson. With the latter, with whom he sang countless "Turandot" over 20 years, there is a funny anecdote. In one of those performances at the Met, the soprano maintained her dramatic final C of the second act more than she should. Corelli announced at halftime that he planned to bite Nilsson on the neck in the duet of the third act, so Nilsson, warned of him, asked for his anti-rabies certificate to continue singing. Of course, none of that happened, but it gives an idea of the great trust and rapport of the artists.
The anecdote has taken many forms, but what was recounted by Birgit herself was that Corelli was upset during the break (some might ask why, but Corelli was a very nervous man who was always concerned for his voice, and maybe he thought Birgit had him beaten too much on the high C) and to raise Corelli's spirits Rudolf Bing suggested he bite her instead of kiss her when that part comes. Corelli's spirits were indeed lifted and he went on with the performance, but he didn't bite her (or kiss her for that matter). But by that time Bing had left the house because he was afraid of what might happen. Birgit learned about Bing's suggestion to Corelli and also knew Bing had left and not seen what happened. So she telegraphed Bing and wrote: "Must cancel next performance. Badly bitten. Birgit"
@@Bravilor This version is undoubtedly just as fun or even funnier... When the egos of great opera singers get involved, anything is possible...
@@edufau815 I like the old school, or, which would now be considered "old person humor" that often arose in the shenanigans of opera stars :) Birgit was a master of that.
Magnificent singing from legendary artists. BUT did they have to be dressed like aristos going to a ball?
Wikipedia states that each singer died after suffering a stroke later in life.
