Regrettably there’s not a soprano in the world, to my knowledge at least, you can perform this aria to such a high standard. The 50’s and 60’s were truly a golden age for opera, probably gone forever.
Keşke yeni nesilde böyle olağanüstü yetenekleri bilse..kendimi bu efsanevi kadını bildiğim için çok şanslı hissediyorum. Mükemmel ses, oyunculuk, asillik...
I have heard of Leyla Gencer for years, but not until today did I have the wonderful revelation of this fantastic soprano. The sheer voice is beautiful, even more so than Tebaldi's. Her delivery is effortless and the size of the voice is all one could want for Leonora. Her musicality is faultless, and her stage presence is regal. Gencer belongs in the first rank of great sopranos.
Not only is she a spectacular singer but her acting is fantastic…..not just her visible acting but her acting in her gorgeous voice. The line down from her soprano voice to her mezza voice is like a dream. This clip ought to have 1 million views at least. From 6:03 onwards she is so totally a Leonora in love - full of joie de vivre and excitement. Noone, not Callas either, convinces me as this spectacular artist does. Her musicality, her attractiveness, her spectacular voice, her intelligence, her artistry - all of those qualities make her into the stuff from which legends are born. And she sure is one legend among true musical lovers around the world. 💞
I could not agree more…that TV production and it’s Studio Recording mad me fall in Love of Gencer’s artistry …If we would only have ONE Soprano today I would follow here all over the world to se here in Live . But unfortunately this age of Golden Opera Interpretation is gone for ever……..
My goodness, a lifetime of love of opera and I hadn't heard the name Leyla Gencer until yesterday when the radio station France Musique dedicated a special to her - a true belcanto voice. Such a pity there are not more recordings!
No ! In the western Catholic ( I’m not religious) Leyla herself claim in multiple Interviews that is was a whole new culture and a whole new world ,not beeb Italian and coming from a far different culture,she had to Adapt all these meanings and understandings. But a great Artist Leyla was she got the “Wipe ” and adopted in to this…..without loosing her Turkish Roots…That is true understanding of Style an cultural differences…She was a TROOPER..Viva la Gencer….Greetings from Germany
Stupenda!Meravigliosa! Ho avuto la fortuna di ammirarla all Arena di Verona molte volte....erano i favolosi anni 60.Prestazioni STRAORDINARIE Mitiche rimasero le sue mezzevoci come Aida.... Poi x risentire una Leonora come la Sua ho dovuto attendere oltre 50 anni con la Netrebko. PER ME UN AMORE MAI FINITO.
Una GRANDE DEL MELODRAMMA...GENCER...magnifica Eleonora...i suoi pianissimo filati...e la sua estensione nell'acuto...ne fanno una degna rivale di MARIA CALLAS...
That is if you are technically secure have a concept and understanding of the role not only the part you singing( like it is unfortunately today) but also have a charismatic character Brava Gencer, Callas, Gheorgiu Charesmatic singers , better said “Darsteller” we seldom find today
Diva turca cok da guzeldiniz 10 yasimda istabuldan taniyorum beni yetistirdiler cok buyuk kurturlu operaya hayranlik leyla gecerden ogrendim 50 tesekkur ederim bir omur boyu size saygi larim la desiree
Gencers pianissimos are legendary ....this requires absolute command of the voice....listen to Gencer in Cavalleria ....she does it agin...from cruel voce di petto to heavenly piani...via bel canto.
@@sandorkonya8005 her musicality is beyond perfect, I agree about her Cavalleria too, which has been sang and pirate recorded later in her carrier, earlier would be even better.
She skips all the written trills in the cabaletta. How can you be the best in something if you can't even sing what's written? Nevertheless, this is one hell of a performance, dramatically and lyrically exquisite delivery indeed.
Zeynep Oral'ın kaleme aldığı 'Bir Tutkunun Romanı'nda Leyla Gencer'i okurken , sesinin eşlik etmesi, az mutluluk değil. Tıpkı Leyla Gencer'in varlığı gibi...Büyük ses, gerçek sanatçı, büyük onur... Işığı, sonsuz yaşamını aydınlatmaya da yeter.
Yes, this is as good as it gets. The cadenza of the aria is beautifully conveyed. Despite the absurdity of the costuming, where since it's time to prepare for bed, she should come down in her nightgown, it's good to see a performer acting at such a high musical level. And the cabaletta gets just the right approach to near but not quite hysteria, which belies the appraisal of Julian Budden, who called it tinselly and insignificant: not when sung like this.
Özgün olmadiğı için istedigi kadar bir kişi ses oynaytsın... neredeyse çabası boşuna olacaktır. o kadar dinledim ki bende hiçbir şekilde kabartıya vesile olmadılar.
daha önce sizi tanımadığım için kendimden utanıyorum ve sizi tanıtmayan bu eğitim sisteminden de ayrıca nefret ediyorum, elimden geldiğince hayatım boyunca sizi heryerde anlatacağım
the plot takes place ( Libretto) in Aragon 1410 and regarding to Fashion in these Days Women wore these Head Dresses….maybe distructing to our modern Eyes ,but it matches the Staging,and Time the Plot took place

Yes It's sad. Callas and Gencer (and Verrett) were never boring but always exciting, even when less than perfect. Some singers just had it.....
One of the best Leonora’s that ever existed
Such intense musicality, why is such an art no longer existing today. The sad situation the opera world finds itself today.
Mio Dio che soprano !!!
Keşke yeni nesilde böyle olağanüstü yetenekleri bilse..kendimi bu efsanevi kadını bildiğim için çok şanslı hissediyorum. Mükemmel ses, oyunculuk, asillik...
hakikaten gurur duydum
Какие легкие, изящные верхние ноты! Прекрасная певица! Берет за душу!

There are many recordings, all live pirates. Try her Norma or Roberto Devereux.
One of the best
She was absolutely perfect!
Leyla's talent was so potent, so magnetic, so disarming. Life changing. Brilliant. 💯
La Diva Turca! Sempre nei nostri cuori! Her zaman kalbimizdesin!
Olağanüstü olağanüstü. Dünyaya sanatta Türklerin de var olduğunu gösterdi. Her dinlediğimde bir Türk olarak gurur duyuyorum...

Поёт так, как будто ей это абсолютно ничего не стоит!!! Я в восхищении!!!
Bravo

Brava Gencer, Callas, Gheorgiu
Charesmatic singers , better said
“Darsteller” we seldom find today
What a stupendous singer
La Diva turca 🌟🌟🌟
Maravillosa interpretación.!!
Superb!!!! You cannot hear very often a REAL Leonora... Thank you for sharing!
Очень красивый голос, наполненный красками души. Впервые услышала эту певицу. Она уникальна по одаренности.
Assolutamente splendida ❤️❤️❤️❤️!
Fraseggio, agilità, stile e portamento vocali indiscutibili!
Grazie infinite per questo documento!
She's truly a Goddess❤
Leyla Gencer gururumuzdur, bu ülkenin başına gelmiş en güzel mucizelerden biridir 💙
Meravigliosa cantante
Genialità assoluta.

Bu mükemmel performansı bizlerle paylaştığınız için teşekkürler. Ne büyük bir değer... Işıklar içinde uyu la diva Turca...
La diva turca ⭐️
At 3:45 something exceptional happens, nobody does it this way.
Zinka Milano
@@joseluismoraleshernandez6808 Zinka is marvel as well! I adore her.

Beside Callas the most impressively Singing until today.....loveLeylaGencer...with all her mannerisms..impressions at its best
Sublime.
Magnífica.
une merveille !...
Maravillosa interpretación, realmente conmovedora
Brava!
Great singer, really love Miss Gencer.
Tek kelimeyle süper ötesi.
İtalyada türk dedigin zaman osmanlı,atatürk,ve Leyla Gencer diyorlar
Inanmıyorum eski kayıt ve videosu da var. Çok teşekkürler. Thanks a lot. Grazie mille !
Stupenda come sempre
divina .
Genius…brave la diva turka…
better than anyone I heard in this particular piece. Astonishing !
Please hear it with Maria Callas. Jussi Bjoerling said that there was never a better Leonora than Callas'.
Sergio Squeff Barcelos i heard a version of Callas when she was later in her career. Its a no.
There are beautiful performances available with Callas early in her career. At least as good are those of Zinka Milanov and Leontyne Price.
do you really have always to compare every singer to Callas? what for?
She skips all the written trills in the cabaletta. How can you be the best in something if you can't even sing what's written? Nevertheless, this is one hell of a performance, dramatically and lyrically exquisite delivery indeed.
Divamız ne kadar güzel ❤️
Che brava
Zeynep Oral'ın kaleme aldığı 'Bir Tutkunun Romanı'nda Leyla Gencer'i okurken , sesinin eşlik etmesi, az mutluluk değil. Tıpkı Leyla Gencer'in varlığı gibi...Büyük ses, gerçek sanatçı, büyük onur... Işığı, sonsuz yaşamını aydınlatmaya da yeter.

She lacks the necessary coloratura for the cabaletta: where have all the trills gone?
Her dinleyişimde hazdan ve gururdan başım dönüyor...
Fusun Pamukoglu benimde
Люблю.
Işıklar içinde uyu...
Exquisite.
Absolutely magnificent!!!!!
Spectacular singing, but what in God's green Earth is that thing on her head? Lord!
Sevgiler 💕

3.45- 3.56 ...
Where are the trills?
Is that Giovanna Vighi with Gencer?
NO. She is Laura Londi.
ni de cerca a las mas grandes.....................
Muy lejos de Zinka Milanov
Actuacion ridicula. Siempre trato de imitar a callas moria de celos pero sin duda un buen aparato vocal y una buena tecnica
Özgün olmadiğı için istedigi kadar bir kişi ses oynaytsın... neredeyse çabası boşuna olacaktır. o kadar dinledim ki bende hiçbir şekilde kabartıya vesile olmadılar.
daha önce sizi tanımadığım için kendimden utanıyorum ve sizi tanıtmayan bu eğitim sisteminden de ayrıca nefret ediyorum, elimden geldiğince hayatım boyunca sizi heryerde anlatacağım
What in heaven's name has she got on her head? So distracting. Sorry, yes, great voice.
the plot takes place ( Libretto) in Aragon 1410 and regarding to Fashion in these Days Women wore these Head Dresses….maybe distructing to our modern Eyes ,but it matches the Staging,and Time the Plot took place
l'unica che poteva stare alla pari con la Callas... specie in questi ruoli...voce, tecnica, stile e presenza scenica spettacolare
