This should be a recommendation at least once for all RUclipsrs.
That's Right!!^^ ✨🗽⚓🎆💌
Our marching band show will be based on this, cant wait👌
Evan Cardenas please tell me you’ve seen the phantom regiment show. That shit made me cry
What a great video. It is exceptionally informative! Thanks for putting this one up, hopefully I will be able to see the Cincinnati opera in person some day.
Thank you Evans, one more time. Your insight and additional color to the story of opera in general...and those you enhance in particular before the curtain rises in Music Hall....always puts an extra 'beat' into the work.
My keener interest in Puccini and his works is relatively recent and your Introduction was Most Informative. Thank You!!
This is an excellent invitation to learn about Opera and the different stories involved in great masterpieces. Mr. Mirageas speech here is perfect to understand the plot and meaning of Turandot to someone who doesn't know what's it about.
Simply abeautiful production
Turandot os the most amazing opera
Was this event filmed? I HOPE SO. Can it be purchased or watched?
As soon as he sang a quick “vincerò, vincerò”, I liked the video and subscribed 😉
How can someone dislike a video of this quality and content. What is wrong with the people....
Send for Pu-Tin-Pao.
Thank you
Turandokht is based on “Nezami Gangavi’s, Persian Poet, Haft Paykar” or “Seven Beauties” from 12th century.
It is not from China...
Thank You For Enlightening Us All🌞✨🗽⚓🎆💌
Surely the performance can be recorded and shown, via payment, later...
Where can I listen more from this Great orator?
Introducing Turandot without a comment on the spectacular " in questa reggia " and the vocal ability that the princess must have Is a big mistake..
It's a shame it premiered 2 years after his death.
Love triumphs? If ever two characters from Opera did NOT deserve a happy ending it's Turandot and Calif. He stands around watching them torture and murder poor Liù just to save his own ass, and Turandot is the one of the most unpleasant bitches in any opera. That said, the music and arias in "Turandot" take our breath away. They just need to change that ending.
Turandot could easily be classified as a serial killer who enjoyed cutting up her possible suitors heads. The excuse, sweet revenge on something that had happened way before her time. The music is great, the story, terrible. Bundy was sentenced to death, Turandot was redeemed. Calaf should beware, his wife could go back to her old tricks.....
I disagree, I think she was more so afraid she would be back stabbed again. But once she realizes he really does love her she doesn't have to fear it happening again and has no reason to kill any more suitors.
Also it's not murder if they new the conditions up front, it's more like suicide.
Mi análisis de Turandot: ruclips.net/video/974EoxMiqp0/видео.html
The three tenors rendition of Nessun Dorma is an abomination! Franco Corelli on his own is twice what those three could do together. If you haven’t heard this before throw away your three tenors recording and listen to Corelli. You won’t need it again after you’ve heard him singing Nessun Dorma. And the rest of the opera too of course.
Pavarotti is actually good, but there are a lot of better tenros. But Carreras and Domingo?! They are the most overrated tenros ever
@@fabriziosarcinelli7566 pav is decent. But it did contribute to Dorma being over hyped. Heck originally the high B was just a sixteenth note
@@fabriziosarcinelli7566 My late-Father's Favorite was Mario Lanza, but then Anything and Anyone From His Pennsylvania Was Always Revered^^ (& my Favorite is Andre Bocellii + Leontyne Price, Jessye Norman, and Others: the list can be endless given the Many throughout Time 🌞🌌☔💒💝⚓🎆✨

Amen hahah that's right
It is not pronounced TuranDOT. IT IS TURANDOE
The original play by Gozzi was spelt Turandotte so the the 't's were pronounced . The original word comes from Farsi and the 'dot' meaning daughter is a transliteration and should have the 't' pronounced. Turandot was composed by two Italians, Puccini and Alfano, has a libretto by two more Italians, Adami and Simoni, is based on a 12th-century poem by a Persian, and is set in China. No connection to France and its language whatever. It’s a hard “t” at the end. Hope this helps illuminate this for others who may be misguided on the pronunciation.
it's Not UPRA ... it's O'PPERA' . . . why can't Ameri-CANs say things the right way ???
