Her voice is so warm and bright, powerful yet delicate. She was as great as a singer as anyone -- a class onto herself.
Moffo and Verdi ... this makes my heart stutter and brings tears to my eyes.
Pure beauty!!! She was in her prime back then.
Stunning singing.
Her voice is beautiful and expressive and she is gorgeous.
End of all discussions! MOFFO was simply one of the greatest singers ever.
What a fine document , so nostalgic, with the voice of an angel. Almost heavenly.
O you cannot know how absolutely BELOVED Anna Moffo was back in the day, with prime time television shows in both the US and in Italy, presenting both opera and interviews and informative entertainment-she brought light to and lifted so many lives. This number may seem hokey-dokey but as a measure of how her character, and talent, and visionary musical magicianship was welcomed by the masses, it is an apt illustration.
una meraviglia per gli occhi e per le orecchie una voce bellissima e una bravura eccelsa
A gem from the past. Wonderful performance by the always lovely Anna Moffo.
Moffo was and still is the best Nanetta ever.
Unbelievably beautiful! Untouchable!!
That's an angel singing...
Oh my god she's so fantastic. I love her so much !! I am so happy whenever I find a piece I'm looking for with her. It's usually her version that's the best. And DAMN she sang EVERYTHING !!! LOVE her.
She recorded the role with Gobbi, Panerai, Alva, and Schwarzkopf under H. Von Karajan in 1957. It's a wonderful recording and this excerpt is superbly beautiful.
Rare beauty.
I could feast on this opera for the rest of my life. thank you again for posting this.
Anche se la Moffo avesse cantato solo quest'aria in tutta la sua carriera, il suo nome sarebbe comunque entrato nell'olimpo.
Signori: qui non ce n'è per nessuno.
It's a shame that, obviously, so many have not yet heard this incomparable version of this beloved aria!
Nothing short of ‘Pure Perfection!’!
Che dire della moffo, lucia e' un esempio di interpretazione, merito anche della regia di lanfranchi. Lei oltre che bella , tra i meriti vocali ed espressivi aveva un corpo e due gambe da sogno, il che non guasta visivamente
In bocca sua questo pezzo diventa davvero un canto di fate un po come succedeva con Toti dal monte negli anni trenta !inutile naturalmente sottolineare il fascino di questa di questa donna ma lo faccio lo stesso! anche il il resto del cast eccelso(per me ) rendono questo Falstaff uno dei migliori in assoluto e sicuramente il migliore in video! Le ultime parole del buon vecchio verdi nell'opera sono state : tutto il mondo è burla ! Tutti gabbati tutti gabbati !! Dopo più di un secolo dalla prima di questo capolavoro chi può dargli torto?
Anna Moffo was a complicated, brilliant,and vastly talented human being. During her too-brief vocal prime I think that she was,overall, the finest singer/musician whom I have ever heard. {And I've checked out MANY!}
Magical.
unique soprano voice. it shines.
And who else in the world could ever sing that last phrase without breathing??? It's totally extraordinary.
Lissette Oropesa
@@elenazamudio286 ho scritto questa frase 12 anni fa prima di ascoltare la mia amica Lisette. Sono d'accordo con Lei.
absolutely perfect!
Straordinaria musica, grande interpretazione.
Thank you so much for posting, I am in tears to see her sing such beautiful aria, I agree with most of you she is the perfect Nanetta. Not only she does the last phrase in one breath "le fate, hanno percifre, i fior" : Fairies have for alphabet flowers" they do when she is singing ,most magical piannisimo Bravissima
Siempre maravillosa.!!
The BEST!
Grande cantante, sempre bella
thank you,thank you,thank you. Falstaff is the greatest opera and this scene and music is among Verdi's best. Thankfully Serafin is conducting here and not vonKarajan, who seemed to conduct this deathly slow- not at all the 'quicksilver' as suggested by Toscanini.
Brava e bella.
magnifique!
MAGICA E AFFASCINANTE! EVVIVA ANNA!
Such a beautiful voice and fine musician...a concert pianist also!
Hasn't anyone noticed that Moffo closes her mouth at 23 seconds into the aria? It is amazing that she is able to sing so beautifully with her mouth shut tight! :)
rnlevin She's a pro! Lol
@@norwegianforestcat7471 2 different sound/film tracks. Splicing problems. The beginning of the aria has quite a lot of echo on it and it looks like she is singing playback - the lip-sync is off. After 0:23 the sound is much more direct and it seems that from then on she is singing live. They obviously did many takes because the fading in and out of the kids at the end is post editing. It is of course to be forgiven as in 1956 they were technically still in the stone age regarding live opera performances :)
@@Yves_Ka I adore Anna Moffo, splicing issues or no! One of my favorite opera singers 😁
@@norwegianforestcat7471 me too
Seems pre-recorded and not well dubbed. That said, she is the most exquisite Nanetta ever!
Anna=Anima
Goddess! Viva La Bellissima!
Ahhhhhh, the Windsor Great Forest scene, where poor foolish Falstaff gets the scare of his life! "Falstaff" is one of my favorites . . . Verdi's last and perhaps greatest work, showing that not only did the the Old Man still have IT, but that he could write a convincing comedy - although, I have to say that I like his "Un giorno di regno" pretty well; I don't share the view of the Italian critics who panned its premiere, or the audiences who stayed away. Take it on its own merits.
Meravigliosa Anna!! La migliore Nannetta! 😍😍😍
Solo una domanda...chi ha potuto mettere 5 pollici in giù a questa stupenda performance??
Possibly the finest Nanetta of all time
At her best Moffo was untouchable in certain roles, above all Violetta Valery. But her Gilda,Marguerite & Liù were incomparable. And this is exactly the way she sounded live, except for one thing you which can't tell here: this was a big, full lyric voice which filled the MET.
Que bella era la Moffo, no tenía nada que envidiarle a Callas o a la Tebaldi, cada una dejo una marca imborrable en la historia de la Ópera, Moffo tenía la voz más pura que se alla escuchado jamás.
brava si ma non esageriamo! la Callas e la Tebaldi non si toccano. la Moffo è stata bellissima si ma dopo l'intervento di chirurgia estetica al suo naso.
no importa, Callas comió gusanos para adelgazar y nadie se lo reprocho
although there are pretty beautiful version to here on youtube, this is a very interesting one: it seems the most "italian" to me; the voice is silvery and slim and one feels she still comes out of the belcanto school: great!!!
Dolce, fine, eterea in questa parte
The only singer to match this was Battle live i 1985, its on my account. These two are by far the best at this.
dificil!!! aria
@HeidelbergSoprano It's been a while but she sang Alice Ford I'm 99% sure. :)
I still can't cognitively understand how she manages this deceptively simple (in reality quite perilous) moment in the opera so perfectly.
PS. At 0:24, the sound does not sync up with the video. I wonder if we have any truly live recordings of Moffo singing this exquisite aria.
Great! Thats before she had a Nose Job! lol But,She still was beautiful than Also!
I think she was much more beautiful with her gorgeous Roman nose!!
@@lesleyheller2271 agree. Lesser symmetry adds to charm.

Aye-yay-yahya...
I have seen Moffo, Freni, Bonney and Battle on RUclips and I narrowly prefer Freni! She Falstaff with Gobbi, Tebaldi, Di Stefano! Perhaps the quality of the cast dazzled me!
Her nose was so pointy like Callas. I dont know why she had a nose job
