Turandot Act TWO (Verona 2018)

(July 18, 2018) Act 2, scenes 2 & 3 of the Zeffirelli production, one of the most opulent presentations ever at the Verona Arena. Camera and editing Norman Frizzle, shot entirely hand-held.

I was on this performance. It was my first experience with this opera. And I got Turandot under my skin. Since then I have heard it thousands times in different theaters and tv productions. And yet this very performance gives me goos bumps. Anna Pirozzi and this young Turkish tenor I don’t remember his name, they were fantastic.

[@pingviniwe]

his name is Murat Karahan

[@jefolson6989]

Can't find the cast list

[@leonardogiacobbe5422]

Grande Turandot e grande Calaf.Penso che il giovane Karahan sia uno dei pochi tenori drammatici di oggi,forse il piu' grande

[@giorgiojvladiqt6060]

Great TENOR. Beautiful voice.

[@gianlucabrunetti3214]

Brava Anna Pirozzi❤

[@BNL75]

Una Liù che canta Turandot

[@gnop355]

Exactly… sad…

[@ulkugurisik]

Murat Karahan’s performance was splendid last night at Ankara Opera

[@josefhormann7698]

VERY GREAT !

[@stevenburton7922]

Wow! Really good cast!

[@JoseAntonio-ki9tn]

Turandot de Verona 2018 dividiram os atos. O 3o- ato já entra com tudo sem uma introduçaõ. O 1o- e 2o- atos gravaram juntos com trechos. Esta apresentação do 2o- ato é o único ato que está completo. Está uma esculhambação. Por que não gravam completo sem cortes? Esta gravação é uma das melhores.

[@Matt-cm8hh]

Great voices!!!

[@rhythmnation2004]

If this isn’t a Zeffrelli production it’s certainly a close reproduction lol.

[@petersaunders6571]

Looks like they borrowed the scenery from the MET...

[@kennethwayne6857]

It is directed and designed by Zeffirelli. Slightly different from his production at the Met. (Different costumes, lighting, etc.) They'd have to be careful about 'reproductions'. Zeffirelli when alive had been known to sue over things like that.

[@SilfredoSerrano]

@@petersaunders6571 Zeffirelli did one for La Scala quite similar as well.

[@luca200177]

Anna Pirozzi e Murat Karahan ❤️

[@ErenButur]

14:54 straniero, ascolta

[@OlyaGusseva]

io ricordo tenore meraviglioso Martinucci Nicola in Calaf ma anche Radamès stupenda voce, questo non conosco e non mi piace

[@Janinka34]

Who is singing Turandot, please?

[@ndfrizzle]

Janinka34, Act 3 is also on RUclips and all major credits appear at the performance end.

[@Tsm9494]

Murat Karahan

[@ismaeleguren8545]

La soprano con un magnífico registro agudo pero muy pobre registro grave. Pena!

[@joepad1831]

la signora anna pirozzi è una cantante meravigliosa che canta sul fiato e non emette suoni intubati e spinti . La sua è una voce musicale e molto elegante

[@gnop355]

But a Liu, not a Turandot , no middle voice

[@emmanuels2192]

this is super rcaist

[@ndfrizzle]

Please explain.

[@TheLeonmafioso]

Shut up gringo, nobody cares your opinion.

[@mangiafrani]

That's not Corelli.

[@supernastja_art]

wtf is Corelli?

[@TheFrankozzi]

No . Salvo il tenore stop. Turandot senza spessore.
