It very much IS a prayer! Mourning the loss of love, and hoping that her suffering will benefit the whole world! Just as much the Chaplet of Divine Mercy as Desdemona's prayer from Verdi's Otello. I can see in Maria's eyes that she gets it, and it makes me wonder who she was thinking of in that scene... Thank you, Maria! Thank you for your prayers!
Ci sono persone che sono nate per diventare grandi medici, avvocati, presidenti, compositori, cantanti, direttori d'orchestra. La CALLAS e nata per donare amore
This is Callas almost at the end of her career, but despite a couple of minor vocal blemishes she moulds the cantilena of Bellini's aria with such perfection. How can we fail to be moved ? She sings from deep inside the words and the harmony. She is the frail Amina , sleepwalking and singing of her lost love. I can understand that some don't like her voice, but her artistry, communication and emotion are beyond question.
Perfect interpreter of Amina in this beautiful melody! Many years ago my father had said he had seen the first sentence inscribed in gold lettering on Bellini's tomb!
Lezione di canto per qualsiasi voce.. stessa posizione dall’inizio alla fine. Canto sulla corda e risonanza del petto sempre presente. Voce vera senza camuffare nulla. Numero 1
Peccato che gli insegnanti (invidiosi falliti senza arte né parte) dei conservatori isegnino che la Callas aveva una pessima tecnica e brutta voce. No commenr
One of the remarkable things I find listening to Callas is the detail in her performances, this is ravishingly beautiful and she uses the finest gradations of tone and shading of volume, and a huge range of so subtly different facial expressions to make this just sublime. I enjoy many other ladies singing this but Maria Callas makes every moment come to life... each time I listen it seems like there is more to relish...
Just look at her:she sings with her eyes and mouth and her whole body as Bernstein pointed out. No one has ever been able to do that like her: Pure musicality.
I am so in love with this woman!!!! I don't care if there are any better sung versions out there. For me she has "IT". She connects so deeply to the music she sings, she has that untouchable charisma and pathos...it goes so above and beyond the perfect technique, beautiful timbre, accurate musicianship, etc. She communicates so well - and that is where it is. This aria is incredible.
E nulla...quando sul "potria novel vigore.." il volto di Maria si apre alla luce della speranza ogni separazione fra l'artista e il personaggio svanisce e l'arte diviene sublime
Callas always sing the text. When she sings grieving arias, your heart melts and sways with her tremendous singing. I don't care if her voice deteriorate too early, it is the emotions that give life to opera not just the singing. Brava La Divina!
@@himmatsingh1593 we are talking about Callas's interpretation. We don't care you and your another great singer. Thank you very much, but we don't need!
Trois monstres sacrés, le compositeur, le chef-d'orchestre, la chanteuse. Quel compositeur ! quel maestro ! quelle diva ! Ici, pour l'Histoire de la musique... 😑
Yo i think she is da truth!!!! I love her.... I dont care what anybody says bout maria's voice cause thats proof she can sing beautifully!!! She made me like opera!
One of the things that always amazed me is that Callas barely seemed to open her mouth when she sang coloratura. Unlike most other singers who contort their mouth every which way to try and hit each note. Much love.
Ah! non credea mirarti Sì presto estinto, o fiore; Passasti al par d'amore, Che un giorno solo Che un giorno sol durò. Passasti al par d'amore... Che un giorno Che un giorno sol durò. Potria novel vigore Il pianto, il pianto mio recarti... Ma ravvivar l'amore Il pianto mio non può. Ah! non credea Ah non credea Passasti al par d'amore che un giorno sol durò che un giorno sol durò Passasti al par d'amore Che un giorno sol durò.
Why and how is this woman able to sing this way?in Philippine idiom we say "she was wide awake and with a big basket when God showered the earth with talent"
Yes the voice can be ravishingly beautiful and is the vector for her artistry. This recording surely puts to rest the claims of those who say she was simply a good actress. No , Callas was above all a phenomenal singer who even late in her career, as here, could move us to tears with her voice.
the only artist who has ever provoked a genuine emotional response from me with Bellini. What comes off as quaint or even cartoonish from others is heartbreaking from Callas.
Bellini et Callas, une rencontre miraculeuse ! C'est à nous qu'elle s'adresse, elle semble nous murmurer les paroles que la musique porte en elle. Quelle émotion de la voir si vivante ! Un témoignage de son art pour l'éternité, sans aucun doute !
What a truly great, great artist. Each note, each phrase was imbued with magic and true understanding beyond us all. I applaud you La Callas. May your recordings live forever.
Speechless! The voice is there and is obedient to her intentions. A mastercloass in how to handle a recitativo, the phrasing, the colouring etc. Fantastic to see how little she moves, her facial expression in total control (Madame Bartoli! That one is for you and your horrible grimaces). The pianissimi like a violonist....and then Amina s sadness sopratutto. How she keeps to the dramatic core ...all that you can only find with the one and only " Maria Callas"....In some of the comments they line out Patti and Melba, Well, Patti never was an expressivo singer (she even said that as a singer you should not go into emotion because emotion distorts the vocal line) and Nelly Melba. The vocal line of Maria Callas is somewhere inbetween Luisa Tetrazzini and Rosa Ponselle. Muzio also comes alive in her voice when it comes to be heartbroken....But Callas was Callas and I do not think that any of those ladies inspired her (even if she liked Ponselle very much quoting that she Ponselle had the better material...this means also that Ponselle did not use all her possibilities). Callas was the genius and that is something one cannot explain and it was something she haedly understood herself....Rest in Peace Maria...You are the one and only for eternity....
agree, but not everyone is able to have "Callas face expression"........obviously Mme Bartoli does not have this capacity, but she has a terrific spectrum of expression, as well as the inner sense of interpretation !!!!! she's also a wonderful musician....to "take on her facial expression" seems to me very superficial a comment, especially as we don't have many artists of this caliber ! it's "small", and show the limitation of the critic.......
i love closing my eyes while listening to her and hearing the emotion in her voice... and when i open them again, the feelings are also reflected on her face... beautiful and very touching...
Her voice is the most divine, deeply and perfect that the world had seen.....no one will have this voice ....she's was unique....the last greek goddess that existed....the goddess of music...thank you Maria, for your work and inique voice.
Interpretación insuperable, un dejo de tristeza y añoranza que ninguna otra voz alcanza, no solamente llega al corazón y se hace repetitiva en la cabeza, va más allá, atraviesa la piel y se queda en el alma. Callas eterna.
10 years after the sublime performance at la scala she is more dramatic, more tragic and more heartbreaking in her mourning for her lost love! MARIA CALLAS PRIMA DONNA ASSOLUTA!
DEAR ALL, DO NOT FORGET SHE WAS A GENIUS AND CAME TO THIS WORLD TO SHOW TO ALL SINGERS WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WHEN SINGING AND INTERPRETING. THIS IS BREATH-TAKING AND DIVINE. ALCE2008
Siamo nel 1965 e nonostante le "cadute" degli ultimissimi anni, qui è di una bellezza e musicalità celestiale. Ciò che rende eterna questa artista è che ti arriva direttamente al cuore. Resti fermo, non respiri per sentire la pace, la speranza che emana dalla voce e non solo. Che meraviglia!! Nedo Marco - Italia
Com esta ária, ela corta o coração de qualquer um. Prova de que ela é a ponta de um grande iceberg, as outras apenas deslisam na música. Grandiosa e devastadora, essa é Callas.
Où va-t-elle trouver tout ce souffle qu'elle expire si prestement et qu'elle reprend de plus belle ? C'est poignant quand Amina chante son amour malheureux lors d'une crise de somnanbulisme. C'est la meilleure interprétation de ce magnifique Ah! non credea mirarti de Bellini.
Ante tan magistral soprano no hay que ser un erudito para reconocer que interpreto de manera perfecta y unica esta aria, inigualable, mis respetos y admiracion asi ya no este entre nosotros, que valioso legado artistico nos dejo.
it's really late, meaning her voice was far from her best, but the only thing I notice is the beauty and the incredible emotion she conveys in every single note, every single word. She looks so fragile. Divina siempre
I have loved her forever and after seeing the movie about her my admiration only increased. What a gift to the human race!!!! She truly was the great artist. Honest and true to herself at any cost.
Maria really loved music. One rarely sees and hears famous musicians surrender mind, body and soul to this degree in a live performance. I agree with other comments that her art transcends the notes Bellini wrote and lives forever as an example of how poignantly beautiful human sadness can be expressed.
The magic is how she became the character...vocally and physically. How I wish her performances of Traviata, Sonnambula, and Norma had been videotaped! There was only one MARIA!
This is not singing. It is a PRAYER!!!!!! Thank you MARIA!
I totally agree with you👍👍
It very much IS a prayer! Mourning the loss of love, and hoping that her suffering will benefit the whole world! Just as much the Chaplet of Divine Mercy as Desdemona's prayer from Verdi's Otello. I can see in Maria's eyes that she gets it, and it makes me wonder who she was thinking of in that scene... Thank you, Maria! Thank you for your prayers!
C'est complètement, totalement, absolument ça. Etourdissant !
Possibly my favourite of all Callas's filmed performances. The fragility and sadness are tangible.
Yeah, like, wow.
Ci sono persone che sono nate per diventare grandi medici, avvocati, presidenti, compositori, cantanti, direttori d'orchestra. La CALLAS e nata per donare amore
This is a good example of why María Callas was the twentieth century’s greatest singer. There will never be another like her.
Unica per sempre!
I know. She made Elisabeth Schwarzkopf cry (too).
She was BORN to sing Bellini!!! and Verdi, and Donizetti, and Rossini, and Puccini, and pretty much EVERYTHING!!!
She was BORN TO SING! Fullstop.
Immortality.
Civilizations will rise and fall
A voice like this will lift Mankind up.

This was 1965? Unbelievably great. Still greater than any version by any other singer.
Just look at her:she sings with her eyes and mouth and her whole body as Bernstein pointed out. No one has ever been able to do that like her: Pure musicality.

NO ONE SINGS THIS ARIA LIKE CALLAS! PERFECTION.
It is sublime.
E nulla...quando sul "potria novel vigore.." il volto di Maria si apre alla luce della speranza ogni separazione fra l'artista e il personaggio svanisce e l'arte diviene sublime
Maria Callas is the best opera singer ever!
Callas always sing the text.
When she sings grieving arias, your heart melts and sways with her tremendous singing.
I don't care if her voice deteriorate too early, it is the emotions that give life to opera not just the singing.
Brava La Divina!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastic! But this was sung better by Anna Moffo. Much better.
@@himmatsingh1593 we are talking about Callas's interpretation. We don't care you and your another great singer. Thank you very much, but we don't need!
Well said!
@@himmatsingh1593 it’s not about perfection. It is about emotion. Nobody can carry this emotion better ten Callas. Nobody. Never
She is the reason I started singing opera. La Divina
Trois monstres sacrés, le compositeur, le chef-d'orchestre, la chanteuse.
Quel compositeur ! quel maestro ! quelle diva !
Ici, pour l'Histoire de la musique... 😑
Yo i think she is da truth!!!! I love her.... I dont care what anybody says bout maria's voice cause thats proof she can sing beautifully!!! She made me like opera!
Jaśnie Pani Callas, to nie śpiew, to poezja, dziękuję.
È sempre una grande emozione sentirla...una voce sublime...incomparabile!
What a beautiful singer and conductor! The orchestra is impecable 💕
The conductor is Georges Prêtre
Divine, magnificent and perfect. This is opera!
One of the things that always amazed me is that Callas barely seemed to open her mouth when she sang coloratura. Unlike most other singers who contort their mouth every which way to try and hit each note. Much love.
Non esiste nulla di più bello e intenso di questa struggente aria di Bellini interpretato dalla Callas. Bellissima e unica !!! Grazie.
this voice was not ugly. it was wonderfull filled with magic. she was LA MAGICA.
Ah! non credea mirarti
Sì presto estinto, o fiore;
Passasti al par d'amore,
Che un giorno solo
Che un giorno sol durò.
Passasti al par d'amore...
Che un giorno
Che un giorno sol durò.
Potria novel vigore
Il pianto, il pianto mio recarti...
Ma ravvivar l'amore
Il pianto mio non può.
Ah! non credea
Ah non credea
Passasti al par d'amore
che un giorno sol durò
che un giorno sol durò
Passasti al par d'amore
Che un giorno sol durò.

se esistesse un paradiso, Maria Callas starebbe alla sinistra di Dio e la sua voce riempirebbe tutti i cieli
+Luigi Mazzini Grazie per questo commento! Il più bello che ho letto. Sono sicura che Maria sarebbe molto toccata se fosse qua
Danae Komodromou sono parole che vengono dal cuore :)
Riempie i cieli e aspetto di andarci !
Alla destra di Dio, al posto degli eletti.
Perche' piango sempre quando canta? Mi tocca fino in fondo all'anima. So touches me to my core!
Some writer very sagely observed that while others sang in phrases, Callas sang in paragraphs... Χρόνια πολλά και Αιωνία η μνήμη αυτής.
i can't help but cry as i listen to this beauty...
She does it with so many emotions yet so effortlessly
You can't separate her artistry from her voice, a magnificent voice!
Maģhìfìça
Yes, a very unique voice!
Sublime, divino, qui si sente il vero e puro Belcanto! Bravissima Maria💖 ci commuovi tutti.
affascinante il direttore d'orchestra... e Maria... che classe!!!
What a truly great, great artist. Each note, each phrase was imbued with magic and true understanding beyond us all. I applaud you La Callas. May your recordings live forever.

The most beautiful piece of Bellini music sung by the greatest ever.
Maybe the most beautiful soprano aria- Bellini wrote some incredible tenor arias.
I couldn’t agree with u more!
Capolavoro di musica e voce.
Why she is the only one that always transports me to another dimension. The best , Divina.
You're right. she doesn't simply sing, but she is (Amina, Violetta, Norma or whatever you want), every time she is.
Cannot believe that this has not had more hits! Absolutely beautiful.
Interpretación insuperable, un dejo de tristeza y añoranza que ninguna otra voz alcanza, no solamente llega al corazón y se hace repetitiva en la cabeza, va más allá, atraviesa la piel y se queda en el alma. Callas eterna.

Il mio amore per Maria è infinito. Bravissima. Unica
Una voce che nasce dal cuore e che al cuore va diritta.
This mixture of grief and love. Devine singing. The Great Callas. La Divina.
Die Stimme von Maria Callas berührt die Seele---keine andere Sängerin kann diese Arie so engelhaft singen!! danke Maria Callas-LA DIVINA
there will never be another Maria Callas --- ...vivva Maria!!!
Bravissima Maria! Primadonna Assoluta!
una delle memorabili interpretazione della divina callas, una personificazione così lascia incantati
basterebbe un video in muto in cui si vedono solo gli occhi per capire tutto ciò che dice, che sente, che canta
I watch this at least 40 times. Just can’t get over with it, even in my sleep. The voice, the expression like story telling. Viva Maria!
unbelievable！she is amazing
Just heart-wrenching beauty and emotion! She was the GREAT Callas!
Thank you for your wonderful words. I couldn´t agree more
My love, such passion, such soul. Best soprano ever❤❤❤
DEAR ALL,
DO NOT FORGET SHE WAS A GENIUS AND CAME TO THIS WORLD TO SHOW TO ALL SINGERS WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WHEN SINGING AND INTERPRETING.

Very impressive,her divine voice, the comprehensive and passionful interpretation,a feature of certain Greek Artists. Thank you!
Such haunting beauty ....but then again there's only one Callas.
Tears, so many tears! So Beautiful! Don't know what's more touching, Callas's voice or the lyrics?
Absolutely fabulous!
Greatest opera singer ever.
Grandiosa e indimenticabile!
It's wonderful - Maria Callas the Best forever!
No sé qué emociona más, cuando canta o cuando calla, mirando su rostro. Qué inmensidad.
Ante tan magistral soprano no hay que ser un erudito para reconocer que interpreto de manera perfecta y unica esta aria, inigualable, mis respetos y admiracion asi ya no este entre nosotros, que valioso legado artistico nos dejo.
¡Maravilloso! El final sobretodo es de una belleza indescriptible.
Maria takes you directly to Heaven.
Who comes even close to his magnificent singing. Her voice was till glorious in 1965.

I played this clip thousand times and compare this with other sopranos, none of them can be as good as callas!
Wirklich eine der schönsten Sequenzen von Maria Callas.
Me deja sin palabras verla en directo.Te llega al alma.Gracias.
Ineguagliabile!!!🎩🌹🎩🌹🌹🌹
Increíble dulzura de Dama Celestial...!!!!
I have loved her forever and after seeing the movie about her my admiration only increased. What a gift to the human race!!!! She truly was the great artist. Honest and true to herself at any cost.
It really doesn't get better than this. Not now. Not ever. Maria, you will forever be in our hearts!!!
Meus Deus! isto é pura magia. A emoção de ouvir Callas e sua interpretação
Amo essa voz que linda...amo Maria Callas
R.I.P. Maestro Georges Prêtre, 1924-2017
Maria really loved music. One rarely sees and hears famous musicians surrender mind, body and soul to this degree in a live performance. I agree with other comments that her art transcends the notes Bellini wrote and lives forever as an example of how poignantly beautiful human sadness can be expressed.
Insuperabile Maria Callas. Divina Bellezza...
Sublime comme (presque) toujours!
¡¡¡ Bellísima Interpretación !!! Que Hermosa Aria ...
This makes me weep. It feels more powerful than some of the earlier recordings. Living life does that.
María Callas, sin duda alguna, una grande entre las grandes!!
The magic is how she became the character...vocally and physically.
How I wish her performances of Traviata, Sonnambula, and Norma
had been videotaped! There was only one MARIA!
