The emotion she ... ( 1 week ago by TheMrMarilyn)
The emotion she puts into this...her LIFEFORCE,is just incredible!!Maria really did change 'the world' by her existance in it,and in a positive way as well!!SHE is what the term 'Diva' was invented for...not like these days,when every new little strumpet that comes along,peddling their latest piece of trash,is called 'Diva'...it's LUNACY!!MADAME Callas IS 'Diva' and even more 'La DIVINA' (the DIVINE one) as the Italian audiences dubbed her!!Magnificent suffering here in Tosca!!Awesome!!A++

Let Nilsson sing a trill...oh wait, she could not. Yes, Nilsson was LOUD and had a HUGE voice. But her technique was hardly Callas' equal. (Did Nilsson EVER perform Lucia, Norma, Amina, Violetta etc.? No.)

it's easy to get so caught up in the visceral strength of Maria as an actress that one almost doesn't notice all the subtle nuances of the reading and the superb musicality of this amazing artist. there is so much anyone can learn from her. thank you for posting.

She has to be the best ever. Thank you for putting this on. Heaven for a real Callas fan.
Birgit Nilsson was ... ( 1 week ago by toscadonna)
Birgit Nilsson was definitely the better technician and that's proven by her many, many years of singing the hardest music ever (Wagner)and pretty much never missing a note. Birgit was a singing machine! But Maria's expressiveness and musicality trump Birgit's.

Birgit Nillson can kiss my ARSE!!!!callas CHANGED the whole fukkin WAY that great operatic singers and singing (and operatic PERFORMANCE too!!) was and ARE defined!!!!"Birgit Nillson...eatin those burgers ALIVE"Agh ha ha HAHA!!Twat...
This was really ... ( 1 week ago by aplumer)
This was really Maria Callas farewell to her public. Anna Moffo was singing in Rigoletto on alternite nights and was Callas friend. She tells the story of visiting Callas in her dressing room, and Maria clutched her hand and said with real anguish and tension, "Anna, I just can't give them what they want anymore! The expectations, the irrational hatred by some in the public towards her, it had become too much. This "Vissi D'arte" to me her way of giving her love and saying goodbye. A.Plumer

I think Italian opera is the most difficult thing to sing.
Wagner's music it's big, thick ,polyphonic and therefore not designed 100% for singing.
I'm not a musician but it looks easier to sing because you are not as exposed as in the Italian style.
Nilsson great voice and technique indeed but Callas had an answer for all things in music.
For me, before anything, Callas was a musical genius in her understanding of the composer's intention,and her choice of musical material.

callas sounds awful still, even if she does trills. he vibrato makes her sound just like a goat

Birgit Nilsson was great in the german repertoire but she can't be compared to the greatest opera divas of all times : Kirsten Flagstad and Maria Callas!

Honestamente me da mucha pena tener que decirlo pero la actuaciòn y la prescencia de la soprano norteamericana Maria Callas es lo mas parecido que he visto a una bruja de dibujos animados, inclusive hasta la peluca de plastico que tiene puesta, es grotesca, ordinaria y sobre todo fea, muy fea y es artificial su actuaciòn, todo fingido, emociòn postiza y feisima
La voz es mediocre, ... ( 5 days ago by bisigato)
La voz es mediocre, entubada, chica, el centro es pobre, los graves son todos forzados, su sector agudo siempre fue espantoso, acà ya inexistente, acabada desde que tenìa solo 35 años de edad, en 1959 sus actuaciònes en opera tocaban fin

Claro, y por todo lo que tu dices llego a ser la más... (si tu quieres, una de las más grandes o al menos conocidas sopranos de la historia moderna de la ópera).
Quizas no lo sepas, pero a la Callas, se le atribuyen muchos más aportes y logros que su de por si impresionante canto (sea como lo quieras catalogar, porque eso es cuestión de gustos).
Cualquier buen conocedor de lírica al menos mostraría respeto por la figura que representó, porque ella es un antes y un después de ésta música...

Latest research has determined that it's unlikely the universe will last for ever.
But until it dies, Maria Callas will be the best soprano in it.

Her resonant, thick timbre and richness, that is Callas' signature quality & style never fails to amaze me. Brava!
