Dos inmensos cantantes

El tenor de los tenores

Incomparables, una maravilla 🎉

Most don't know today (2024) that this was the last performance of the event besides singing Happy Birthday to the Metropotiltan Opera that fall afternoon in1983. I stayed in my dorm room to watch the whole thing and was entranced by all the great performances, and leaped up when I saw this finale!

Saw this on PBS in SoCal when it was 1st broadcast. Still waiting for the goosebumps to go down!

Wonderful!

Art is not a competitive sport. Do you guys place bets on opera? What really counts is what you feel, not what you think. Art is for feelings. Pkilosophy is for your thoughts. I can watch 10 year old kids play violin or basketball and be thrilled by the performance. I can watch a couple of 70 year old politicians or theologians debate and fall asleep

Whiskey tenors... No! Just stop! 🛑

I'll figure out a way to see if there is a way to do it in Ukrainian! I managed to figure out Maori I will do so.

Chairman Kaga!!! 😮

Ruggero Raimondi is one of the greatest opera singers of all time-bar none.

Con carácter y belleza!!! Bravisimo!!!

Love the Bonynge touch at the end, giving Peters the last word (note..)!

Glorious!

Needs to happen now

I was expecting Señorita Cucaracha!

People really do be sleeping on Craig's performance.

What marvelous singing from one pf the greatest sopranos of the last century and with Bernabe Marti, her tenor husband, a mentor to Jose Carreras. She was indeed a gracious prima diva. After one of her concerts, I said to her, "Mme. Caballe, you don't need me to tell you how beautifully you sang tonight"--to which she replied, "Oh, I do need for you to tell me so! I always leave the stage wondering if I have given my best." Her pride in Jose Carreras's singing is evident in the video of him singing "La dolcissima effigie" with her in "Adriana Lecouvreur." She could not help mouthing the lines as he sang the aria: ruclips.net/video/OfdFo-tigiI/видео.htmlsi=meahVZYg80QSq1Lh

When I saw the artists arrive onstage I couldn't help but think about a great "bon mot" I read about Rossini -- apparently composers and their associates referred to the obligatory end-of-the-act ensemble as the "row of artichokes." It's refreshing to realize they didn't take themselves too seriously.

Que hermosa...😒

No. It needed to be translated into one language for it to reach a worldwide audience: English.

Historic Night 1963

17 great artists from 16 different countries - all coming together in common purpose, to celebrate one of the greatest musical/artistic masterpieces of all time. We could sure use something like this unity now in this troubled world.

Rare footage indeed.

Leontyne and Luciano thundered out a fortissimo high C together!

Non è granché...

Wonderful! And more importent: Our heritage, the clssical music is hold high in the United States! James Levine makes an excellent job! Bravo! Viele Grüße from the Münsterland, in Northwestern Germany, Bernd.

Where is Africa Brasil and china and Russia?

Que bonito .Caballe voz aveludada e Carreras voz potente dourada❤🩵🎶🌹

Nicolai Ghiaurov's vocal and dramatic chracterization of Gounod's Mephistopheles is legendary..

TOTAL goosebumps ! OUTSTANDING

The soprano for Amelia must come on cold for this rather ungrateful opening aria but Harteros sings this as well I have ever heard it. Superb singing & I hope she continues after taking a pause in this 2023-24 season.

Voci soavi❤

Bravo! Brava !

It's crazy to think that there was just a moment in time, a sliver in the grand scheme of things, where a musical brought all these different people together for one performance

Jonas Kaufmann being a tenor within a tenor, and doing it brilliantly, acting such a smoothie. 😂 His singing is exquisite ❤

Ok I recently saw Funny Girl at playhouse square and I really enjoyed it and I'm just now learning more about Fanny Brice and from watching this clip she truly was what the musical says. What a talent she was!

This is simply awesome

incredible singing!!! magnificent voices!!!

She was brimming with talent. Wow.

Have to support the Irish on this one that guy have a set of pipes on him

Anecdote about Miss Peters: I sang in a professional opera chorus in the 1970s when Miss Peters was hired to sing Violetta in La Traviata. She was brought in prior to our first rehearsal so that we could be introduced to her. She was a gorgeous, diminutive woman dressed head to toe in frothy pale lime green, from her dress to her stockings, kitten heels, short gloves and small hand purse. All in pale lime green. Even her tiny poodle who was carried in the arms of one of her entourage had a lime green collar. She haughtily looked us over, nodded once, turned and left with her entourage. Not a hello, nothing. On the day of the dress rehearsal which was open to the press, she wore a - you guessed it - a pale lime green ball gown over an enormous hoop that extended at least three feet on either side of her. The hoop was so wide that it was larger than the opening to the wings and she was unable to exit off the stage. When faced with this dilemma, she didn't bat an eye and grabbed the bottom rim of the hoop, squished it and hoisted it above her head and all you could see below it were two slender little legs clad in lime green tights that scurried off into the wings. Quite the memory! Oh, and she sang brilliantly!

Grateful I got to see Les Mis in its first run on Broadway. Craig Schulman was my first Jean Valjean but Colm Wilkinsonwill be the best!😊

Yes, Wow!

The 10th anniversary concert is the best.

Superlative... et qui l'aurait cru au début des années 80 ? Une Elvira ou encore une Mireille qui n'étaient pas pour elle (vue à la scène Montpellier Avignon)... Puis arriva le miracle quelques années plusieurs tard. Fabuleuse ♥️

Damnn Jenifer Lewis sexy as hell!!
