Di Stefano sang Otello with Tito Gobbi in 1966 and the recording is on RU-vid. Perhaps past his prime but, like here, involved and with text enunciation like nobody else.

Chissà cosa ha fatto al Sig. Garzi la Tebaldi? Trovare qui in Otello un'affermazione su quanto la Callas sarebbe stata meglio della Tebaldi fa sorridere. Chissà, magari non gli è stata offerta una cena. E magari gliela ha offerta ai bei tempi la Callas, passata alla storia per la sua generosità e per la propensione a socializzare.
So heartbreaking 😢 What an amazing performance from both of them, but, my goodness, Jonas Kaufmann is so magnificent in this. His Carlos breaks my heart.
As often, Régine Crespin proposes something utterly orginal : not the horrible, frightening old witch we are used to, but a melancholic, almost endearing old lady who remembers her past. Despite the years, the timbre has remained beautiful, and she always had an impressive low register.
I've loved her from first sight; what a pity she became the fat lady what sings in less than twenty years. Anna I still see you in St Peters-burgh in 2003.
Callas , fue mejorando poco a poco , en la gira del año siguiente 1973 1974 . Los conciertos del Japón de 1974 hay una diferencia tremenda con este dúo del 72 . Qué pena que el disco no lo hicieran al final de la gira !
Basta maltrattare i ruoli da grande soprano con voce modesta, fiato corto e vibrato fastidioso. Soprano inutile, ingiustificatamente sopravvalutato per inspiegabili ragioni di mercato
Dear Marcia as you are so extremely kind maybe you know some source to download covid prison Parsifal with Kaufmann / Garanca / Texier / Koch etc? I watched it and it wasn't my cup of tea, but voices are here and it is worth of downloading, isn't it? Unfortunately I haven't done it un a right time so search it now Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
She was the greatest who ever existed, and he was one of the greatest. But let's face it : here they are extremely bad, their time was up and their voices destroyed. A moving historical document though, of course.
That these two artists who both gave so much more of themselves than most at the highest artistic level, were able to produce this flawless duet, despite waning vocal resources, is a heavenly gift. Only GREAT spirits could have produced such a treasurable memory!
This is from Karajan,s fantastic unnown recording of Verdi,s Requiem. The singing of Price and Cossotto is the most beutyfull singing of this parts in any recording,and will be standing for ever…
Callas worked well as Desdemona....she had the delicacy that the character required. Di Stefano, with an unmatched lyrical tenor voice, should never have sung Otello......poor casting. He sounded forced and tired...a role for a true dramatic tenor: listen to Del Monaco, Domingo and Martinelli ...and yes, even Gigli( believe it or not in 1951)
