A Royal Gala Evening in the presence of TRH Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, starring Jose Carreras with Agnes Baltsa, Katia
Ricciarelli and Ruggero Raimondi. Accompanied by the London Arts Orchestra, conductor Jacques Delacôte and assistant conductor Paul Christ, the evening is a blend of operatic arias, duets and popular songs.
This glittering event is being staged in aid of The José Carreras International Leukaemia Foundation. The aims of the foundation, set up by Carreras, are to channel funds directly into research and to the setting up of scholarships to enable scientists to devote their entire energies to fighting this serious disease.
All proceeds from both the evening itseif and sales of this television presentation go to the Foundation.
In addition to the occasion's royal patrons, the patrons of honour are Their Excellencies the Ambassadors of America, Greece, Italy, Japan, USSR, Spain and Switzerland. Other patrons are Sir Colin Davis, Denny Dayviss, Dame Alicia Markova DBE, Janet Suzman and Sir John Tooley.
The Producer and Presenter on stage is Alan Sievewright.
Baltsa and Carreras are so expressive, you can sense the heartbreak of betrayal in the duet without even knowing the plot. Magnificent.
We do not often hear much about Katia Ricciarelli who had a beautiful voice but a short career. It is said that she had an ongoing relationship with Carreras while he was married. I pass no judgment as life happens and we cannot speak intelligently about what we did not experience ourselves. However because of this relationship she took on roles opposite Carreras that were difficult, too big, or not well timed for the proper stage of development of her voice. As Carreras was close to Montserrat Caballe, a devout Catholic, Caballe did her best to convince Carreras to end the relationship. However it continued resulting in Ricciarelli doing damage to her voice causing it to become small and thin without the necessary push to reach the volume or the notes that are essential to a world class diva. It is an unfortunate series of events as her voice was not only beautiful but had a delicate and fragile tone so important to many of the roles of the soprano in opera and in fact she had many of the qualities that Caballe possessed who Riccharelli admired greatly. Unfortunately she would never achieve the combination of the light pianissimo that contrasted with an Earth shattering volume that became Caballe's hallmark. I have many of Ricciarelli's recordings which are now no longer released and I marvel at her delicacy and purity of tone.
Thank goodnes for Agnes Baltsa. She is reason enough to attend this concert.
This was the first opera music I ever bought and I still love it. I know it so well i have even used this concert to compare and choose music systems over the years. Agnes Baltsa started me on a love of opera and I still hold her highest of all in my heart.
The Brindisi was the highlight of the program! So funny, but in a good way
Jose Carreras you are the best tenor in the world.......and believe me I have heard many of them...... God bless you..... stay well.......!!!!!!!!!
God Bless you JOSE CARRERAS; Thanks for all the magnificent music at the MET and on CD.; Special thanks for all those great early Verdi recordings that were hardly known wheb you recorded them with your peers: Katia; Christina and more!
Love, Love.,.....love ! Thanks
Fabulous concert loved every minute
Oh che musso duetto was messed up at the end. That’s why they laughed, I think was under-rehearsed as Italiana in Algeri was stock repertoire for both Baltsa and Raimondi
😂😂😂😂😂❤❤ Hermoso. Espectacular💐💐💐💐💐😍🤩🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘 Bellísimoooo
La signorilità del canto di JOSE' CARRERAS è incomparabile con qualsiasi altra voce del passato e del presente. Non credo che nascerà mai più un tenore di tale e tante qualità vocali ed interpretative.
Carissima Katia quante volte ti ho ascoltato ed applaudito; i tuoi filati, la tua voce "angelo" sono inimitabili e riconoscibile fra mille. Quest'aria pare dipinta e scritta per le tue corde vocali ed interpretative.
A buon titolo Katia Ricciarelli venne a suo tempo definita "voce d'Angelo", ho avuto l'onore di averla spessissimo in compagnia e il suo timbro è sempre stato inconfondibile. Spiccava su tutti e lasciava tutti attoniti per bellezza di voce e per bellezza di canto, nonché aveva un volto "di porcellana"!
Il più straordinario è, rimane e rimarrà sempre JOSE' CARRERAS. La sua suadente voce, leggermente velata sempre di una profonda "nota melanconica2 ed un porgere ineguagliabile lo rende uno fra i più grandi tenori di tutto il melodramma di tutti i tempi.
Спасибо за прекрасную возможность прикоснуться к прекрасному!!!! Браво! Брависсимо!!!
We love CARRERAS
