Apart from her beauty which everyone has already commented about, her acting is superb. I got chills while watching her put her finger in front of her mouth when she sings “e non si dice.” Absolutely love Moffo and her genius!
Anna Moffo is the class act. Such delicacy in phrases, elegance, beauty, absolutely beguiling. A voice of flexibility, interpretation that makes everything alive and relevant. Overall superb. What a wonderfully crafted performance.
Not only was Madame Moffo beautiful. She had an incredible beautiful lyric soprano voice. My parents loved her as we listened to the Mets Saturday afternoon broadcast in my Dads library /office. Both my parents sang beautifully together but they were also deeply in LOVE. I was about 10 yrs old & My older brother did not particularly care for Opera but sometimes he would sit with us and listen. After he heard LA Boheme with Madame Moffo he said to me now I'm beginning to understand why you & Mom & Dad like Opera so much. My Dad had some of her albums & said here son listen to this Opera & the translation in English is inside the cover and it took him a while to listen to it in between baseball games basketball Etc he was a great athlete.Danny was the best athlete of the year 2 years running in High School. At the awards dinner towards the end of the school year my mom and dad took him to buy a new dark blue suit for this very special occasion. We are very proud of him. And he was kind of shy. Once he got his trophy and the special jacket with his name embroidered on it with the school colors They asked him to say a few words he was so nervous and red-faced my mom got teary-eyed and when he was done I stood up and applauded and he looked at me and smiled. Once he listened to Madames Moffos Traviata he was hooked. LOL. Thanks for triggering this great memory my friend. VIVA ANNA MOFFO 👑💙 Per Semp. Arnold Bourbon Amaral
Olha esta ópera é uma estoria muito triste de dois jovens de familias antagônicas. Há arias lindíssimas, essa ária em questão é a ária da loucura que exige da soprano um desempenho fora do comum. Lúcia enlouquece no seu casamento arranjado e mata seu marido na nite de núpcias, pois tramaram uma cilada para impedi-la de se casar com Edgardo, e sai louca e desvairada cheia de sangue do quarto com o punhal assassino na mão(mata o marido). Essa ária foi brilhantemente interpretada por Callas, aonde impressionou sos criticos com sua capacidade vocal. E agora vejo tb que Anna, fez um magnífico trabalho, pena que ficou incompleto. Que pena! Mas vale a pena ver esta estória que envolve fantasmas da gruta do amor, juras e muito mas muito amor. Inclusive o último ato vemos Edgardo que ao saber da morte da amada Lucia, acaba realmente sabendo da cilada entra em desespero e da cabo de sua própria vida para ir ao encontro do seu amor. Neste contexto o tenor interpreta. com muito sentimento:"Oh bella anima inamoratta"! Io te vengo amore mio...para quem tem apreço ao bel canto chega-seca chorar de tão linda essa ária. E assim acaba a estória de Edgardo e Lucia! Salve Donizetti! Amo essa ópera!
What a wonderful woman . I’ve loved Anna Moffo already as a teenager.. more than fifty years ago ... and still...!!! Totally in league with Montserrat Cabaret and Gruberova and Callas....!!! and above Netrebko, Cecilia Bartolommeo...

진짜 미친 것 같다. 어떻게 광녀 연기를 그렇게 실감 나게 하냐? 안나 모포의 그 아름다운 모습에서는 볼 수 없던 모습을 볼 수 있는지... 집안끼리 원수인 남녀의 사랑 나는 로미오와 줄리엣보다 더 비극적인 사랑이 람메르무어의 루치아라고 본다. 루치아가 미처서 결혼 첫날밤에 신랑 아르투로를 칼로 난자한 후 부르는 광란의 아리아 에드가르도의 아리아 조상의 무덤이여! 신의 곁으로 간 그대! 내가 좋아하는 노래이다. 특히 베냐미노 질리의 격정적인 음성으로 듣기를 좋아한다. 그런데 여기서 세기의 미녀 안나 모포 노래와 연기로 감상하게 될줄이야! 미처서 신랑을 살해하고 난 모습을 사실적으로 실감있게 보여 주었다고 본다. 정말 무서 웠다! 소름이 돋을 만큼!
Ryan Engstrom: How realistic do you want to get where everyone is singing, in Italian, for as story set in Scotland? Yes it’s a film but it’s an opera so realism is hard to obtain.

Maybe I'm naive, because this isn't the repertoire I generally listen to (big fan of German opera), but l genuinely do not understand why Moffo isn't considered one of the great voices of the latter half of the 20th century (like Sutherland, Caballé, Nilsson, Price, etc.)
We love her in Germany and consider her one of the greatest Sopranos, together with Sutherland, Mirella Freni, Caballe. In some parts (Donizetti, Bellini, or Verdi -Gilda) I like her more than any other Soprano.
Ross Merchant: It is s very beautiful voice but it didn’t get to the core of the role. She was not as technical as Sutherland or interpretive as Callas but she made the roles and recordings her own. She developed breathing and support problems and left her career much earlier than she should. Her RIGOLETTO and LUISA MILLER are excellent but let’s not say anything about THAIS.
Non solo la Moffo, anche Zeani Gencer Carteri Callas Maria Chiara Eugenia Moldoveanu Rise Stevens Cebotari Sack Ricciarelli la stessa Tebaldi che era 1,75 avevano una bella presenza scenica.
Where are the wedding guests? Where is the blood on her nightdress? Moffo is superb, but her acting would be better set off with the guests and Alisa and Enrico there.
The director chose not to include them. It's not a requirement for her to be covered in blood, and lots of productions have the guests leave to make Lucia seem more alone.
Rachel Port: The Ashton’s are not a very rich family. The wedding invitations only offered light refreshments, no meal, no “plus ones” but gifts were welcomed. There is no blood because she stabbed her bridegroom with so many cuts that he bled to death internally but not enough to saturate her nightgown.
GeorgieporgiePie: We’ll neigh is Marni Nixon singing for Audrey Hepburn in MY FAIR LADY but short of filming a live performance, this was the best alternative. And it’s loverly. I want to dance all night after hearing it.
This is some pretty good singing, but it has many little flaws.. under pitch, unsupported notes , especially in the middle register... that speak of the many problems to come shortly in her career. The lack of a homogenous voice with supported notes, in fact screwed up her top notes too.
Mittelerde register muss so klingen beim hohen Sopran. Die Stimme ist ein Instrument mit natürlichen Resonansen. Was meinen Sie, wenn sagen, dass die Stimme in der Mitte nicht unterstützt wurde? Sie atmet richtig mit Diafragma. Worum reden Sie überhaupt? Eine große Sängerin. Ich glaube, dass Die einen nicht guten Lehrer hatten, wenn Sie so viel übrig im Kopf haben. Man soll mit Herzen hören, aber nicht ständig bewerten die Sänger. Ich sage Ihnen als Profi. Ich hab bei genialer Dies Beljavskaja studiert. Anna singt ganz natürlich, ohne künstliche Vergrößerung der Stimme, wie heute Netrebko zum Beispiel macht. Früher haben alle genial gesungen. Heute viele singen scheußlich. Ohne Kultur und Geschmack.
Moffo is my favorite singer, but you're not wrong, here. Anything she recorded after 1969, when she had her infamous vocal crisis, is subject to all those flaws you just mentioned. Personally I don't mind her later recordings--I like the husky quality her voice took on enough to sacrifice perfect technique--but I know it's not for everyone.
@@zariza62 Sorry. Moffo sang far from perfect technically. She admitted that herself. Regardless, she had a gorgeous instrument, Supreme acting and musical skills. Ava Gardner had nothing over the beauty of Anna Moffo.
poor anna ...no guests ..no blood ..she really does seem mad not in a good way ...she has just stabbed her husband ...Help a soprano out guys! she has to look like a nutjob! Not a woman having a dance in a nightie! Also you would imagine those guards trying to arrest her ....she has just killed someone!
She looks the part definitely. That haunted mad look and her acting is superb, but no one come close to Dame Joan Sutherland’s Lucia. Her unforgettable performance at the Met in 1982, with the amazing Alfredo Kraus as her beloved Edgardo, sends chills down my spine every time I watch it on video. ( the only one ever recorded of “La Stupenda” singing this role.) And what is even more amazing, she was in her late 50’s when she made this appearance at the Met.
После Анны Моффо можно не стараться- лучше не споешь .....можно только наслаждаться...Спасибо, дорогая, незабвенная Анна.......
Спасибо! Я её очень люблю, она стиль, голос, традиции!
what a magnifcient performance ive never seen one of my favourent arias sung so breathtakingly.
the best. no one sings like this
Era la mia preferita, possiedo l' l'lp di tutta l'opera con lei.
fantastica bellissima voce incantevole
Non solo strabellissima!!!!!!!anche bravissima!!!!!! Che si vuole di più?????
Сотворит же Господь такую КРАСОТУ.
Самая красивая певица!
Apart from her beauty which everyone has already commented about, her acting is superb. I got chills while watching her put her finger in front of her mouth when she sings “e non si dice.” Absolutely love Moffo and her genius!
Your are right!
Anna's Caro Nome is also a stand out. Dimensionally far more advanced than Caballé, Sutherland and of course Callas.
Anna Moffo is the class act. Such delicacy in phrases, elegance, beauty, absolutely beguiling. A voice of flexibility, interpretation that makes everything alive and relevant. Overall superb. What a wonderfully crafted performance.
Ideal! Perfekt! The best!

C'est tellement fascinant, aussi bien à écouter qu'à regarder, quelle merveille...
Beautiful
Her acting is awsome! Excellent! Wonderful!
Look at her eyes as real madwoman!
I'm scared....
Her song? Magnificent! Marvelous
Meravigliosa Anna! Gorgheggi fantastici !!!
Moffo, one of my favourites hi-fi--era sopranos, roberta peters, ingeborg hallstein, natalia gruberova, edda moser, mado robin , lily pons.
I think that should be Edita Gruberova.
Edita .... Gruberova )
Gruberova bad soprano.
Exquisite 👏👏👏
simply unique!
Spectacular!
Strepitosa ,bellissima !!
Die beste! Brava, Anna!
Krása pro uši i duši.❤❤❤
such a beautiful woman!
brava!
Grandiosa !!!
La mejor coloratura y la más bella
impresionante, es la mejor versión que he escuchado nde esta aria, sublime.
Stunning!
Певица с великолепным голосом широкой тесситуры,да к тому же редкая красавица.Жаль,в советское время нам показали только "Королеву чардаша".
Здравствуйте, спасибо. Отлично : мне 62-а года и я впервые увидел это исполнение арии. У каждого поколения своя иллюзия : вариант из "Пятого элемента" имеет свой смысл. Извините
GREAT
La Bellissima ~
Sutherland will always be my favorite, but she is stunning in this clip. What a gorgeous voice she possessed.
I completely agree with you
super green
Perfection is a woman¡¡¡¡ Sweet Anna Moffo¡¡¡¡
진짜 미친 것 같다. 어떻게 광녀 연기를 그렇게 실감 나게 하냐?
안나 모포의 그 아름다운 모습에서는 볼 수 없던 모습을 볼 수 있는지...
집안끼리 원수인 남녀의 사랑
나는 로미오와 줄리엣보다 더 비극적인 사랑이 람메르무어의 루치아라고 본다.
루치아가 미처서 결혼 첫날밤에 신랑 아르투로를 칼로 난자한 후 부르는 광란의 아리아
에드가르도의 아리아 조상의 무덤이여!
신의 곁으로 간 그대!
내가 좋아하는 노래이다.
특히 베냐미노 질리의 격정적인 음성으로 듣기를 좋아한다.
그런데 여기서 세기의 미녀 안나 모포 노래와 연기로 감상하게 될줄이야!
미처서 신랑을 살해하고 난 모습을 사실적으로 실감있게 보여 주었다고 본다.
정말 무서 웠다!
소름이 돋을 만큼!
I love her. But the world deserves a more raw and realistic film adaptation of this opera. With less eye makeup and more blood 😉
Ryan Engstrom: How realistic do you want to get where everyone is singing, in Italian, for as story set in Scotland? Yes it’s a film but it’s an opera so realism is hard to obtain.
"the world deserves" The world deserves nothing, the artists deserve our applause...
O DOCE SOM
A ária do 3º Ato Mad Scene - Il dolce suono, da ópera
Lucia di Lammermoor, de Donizetti, traz a personagem
Lucia que se apresenta no palco com um vestido opala
Longo, branco, ensanguentado, vislumbrando a visagem
Surgindo em sua direção e, diante de seus companheiros
Do elenco, enfatiza: Ohimè, sorge il tremendo fantasma
e ne separa! Lucia relembra os encontros alvissareiros
Com o amado, junto a uma fonte. Surge o ectoplasma
Comprovando a existência de almas errantes. A amável
Lembrança do passado e as intrigas que de lá persistem.
O amor vivenciado na fonte e a perseguição implacável.
A Covid - 19 traz a reflexão do viver por nós apresentado
Nos sonhos que são as mensagens de amor que existem
Na simplicidade que nos traz o doce som acalentado. (*)

I agree with you Ross.
Creo que las cualidades de Anna Moffo como cantante no fueron justamente valoradas en su época.
We love her in Germany and consider her one of the greatest Sopranos, together with Sutherland, Mirella Freni,
Caballe. In some parts (Donizetti, Bellini, or Verdi -Gilda) I like her more than any other Soprano.
She's too pretty...a beauty
Ross Merchant: It is s very beautiful voice but it didn’t get to the core of the role. She was not as technical as Sutherland or interpretive as Callas but she made the roles and recordings her own. She developed breathing and support problems and left her career much earlier than she should. Her RIGOLETTO and LUISA MILLER are excellent but let’s not say anything about THAIS.
La piu' bella soprano
Occhi immensi
Ha ragione, è che corpo aveva e che gambe oltre alla bellezza
...bellissima e... bravissima
Non solo la Moffo, anche Zeani Gencer Carteri Callas Maria Chiara Eugenia Moldoveanu Rise Stevens Cebotari Sack Ricciarelli la stessa Tebaldi che era 1,75 avevano una bella presenza scenica.
ma questo è il castello di bracciano (orsini-odescalchi)??
She is not looking like .... from the grave )))))))))))))))))))))
Tram Tararam: If you want to see the picture of madness and death warmed over, LOOK IN THE MIRROR!!
Great voice nut a very poor staging decision by the director.
3:00 how high was she?
Where are the wedding guests? Where is the blood on her nightdress? Moffo is superb, but her acting would be better set off with the guests and Alisa and Enrico there.
director didn't read the libretto well enough and had five other projects going at the same time no doubt.
The director chose not to include them. It's not a requirement for her to be covered in blood, and lots of productions have the guests leave to make Lucia seem more alone.
Rachel Port: The Ashton’s are not a very rich family. The wedding invitations only offered light refreshments, no meal, no “plus ones” but gifts were welcomed.
There is no blood because she stabbed her bridegroom with so many cuts that he bled to death internally but not enough to saturate her nightgown.
No question about exceptionality, uniqueness and warmth, but the voice over aka lyp syncing is not of a very high standard.
That's what the technology allowed back then.
GeorgieporgiePie: We’ll neigh is Marni Nixon singing for Audrey Hepburn in MY FAIR LADY but short of filming a live performance, this was the best alternative. And it’s loverly. I want to dance all night after hearing it.
uniquement un chant de gorge et un faux vibrato, bien maitrisé, il est vrai !!!
Lovely but nowhere near Joan Sutherland. Sutherland owns this role
Thats if you can understand ONE SINGLE WORD.. Horrid diction, horrid acting
your opinion
This is some pretty good singing, but it has many little flaws.. under pitch, unsupported notes , especially in the middle register... that speak of the many problems to come shortly in her career. The lack of a homogenous voice with supported notes, in fact screwed up her top notes too.

Fantastic physical acting, but her vocal acting needed work. Not her best performance. Her performance as Amina was better.
Everybodys a critic
