This was Maria Callas' farewell concert in London in 1973. It was held at the Royal Festival Hall. She sang with Giuseppe di Stefano. They were accompanied by Ivor Newton. The programme is:
1. Verdi, Don Carlos, Act II duet
2. Lalo, de Roi D'ys, Vainement ma bien aimé (di Stefano solo)
3. Poncinelli, La Gioconda, Suicidio (Callas solo)
4. Bizet, Carmen (duet)
5. Mascagni, Cavalliera Rusticana, Voi lo sapete (Callas solo)
6. Mascagni, Cavalliera Rusticana, Tu qui Stanuzza (duet)
7. Puccini, O Babbino caro (encore, Callas solo)
One of the very few artists who knew when to end her career on a high note. A great soul who the world did not deserve.
So true on ever level.
Why didn’t they world deserve her
Stupid comment
Całkowicie zgadzam się😢.
Her voice did not go anywhere. It matured and time added a warmth and humanity to it that made it a million times so much better. You can finally connect the voice and a human. It's beautiful. Brava! Brava! BRAVA!
There will only be One Maria Callas…..She has marked the history of Opera for ever …….
Bine zis. ❤
Callas didn't just sing a song; she lived every word. Truly one of the greatest of all time.
i am glad you are here Because you have a great taste in music 😊

So true
В какой то момент, посередине арии, её голос приобрёл особенною чувственность и трагизм...это воспоминания...или мне одной так показалось?
i was one of the very lucky ones to be there
Can you explain why didnt you people stand at least? I just found out her today but i think she deserved standing ovation no?
Повезло. Услышать в живую такой голос!!!
I really envy you ......
@Silversled Do you know if she smoked?
@Silversled If true,then that's what damaged her voice. I don't understand why people think it's a mystery. Smoking can destroy your voice almost beyond repair. A sopranos nightmare.
Für mich, die schönste und beste Sopranistin der Welt. Danke Maria Callas ❤❤
She was 50 years old at this time. She had lived 5 decades full of success and admiration as an opera singer, but also full of misery in her personal life. Yes, her voice had changed and was not as perfect as it was in her prime, but she remained a great artist until the last moment.
La divina , la absoluta ❤❤❤ Maria Callas!!!! ❤❤❤
Let me say this again. Mario Callas was the Soprano of Sopranos. And what physical beauty. Her smile could bring the Angels to earth.
The way this amazing woman looks directly at the camera on the last note is breathtaking, as are all of her performances. Even at the end of her brilliant career, her voice was rich with emotion and beauty. She will always be the one and only La Divina. ❤
Eine wunderschöne, unbeschreiblich wertvolle Atmosphäre und eine traumhaft schöne Interpretation von der wunderbaren einzigartigen Madame Maria Callas❤schlafe in Liebe RIP ❤

She sings "O mio babbino caro" with only the remains of her voice. And yet no other singer has made the text as understandable to me as she has. She not only sings, she tells a story ... There was only one Callas.
La diction est impeccable comme toujours.
How is this merely the remains? How much better was she?
@@seu6238 Ha yes she was very special. She may have been the greatest actor the opera stage has seen. Her voice was a wonder. Truly remarkable. But the voice, the beauty, and her acting abilities set her apart. I’m so glad to read these positive comments.
@@VocalEdgeTV Actress
Actually, her voice greatly improved in later dates of the tour. Especially the ones in Japan where she sang arias in their original keys. She was actually retraining herself for a comeback before her death. She never actually lost her voice, it was her confidence that got badly shaken by the pressure of fans, critics and she put on herself. Just when she was starting to find again, she died.
Каллас великая, слушать ее можно до бесконечности. Сколько лет прошло, а она осталась такая живая,.. Голос который поет вечно!!! 🌹🌹💐💐
The most amazing soprano singer ever..
Легенда и абсолютная звезда... 💯💥❗

Чудесная Мария Калас.Прекрасная и печальная судьба.
Божественное пение- талант, есть талант!!!
I was just 19 yrs old when I heard her on her farewell tour in Los Angeles and it was historical to be in the same space with her. Her vulnerability and the love poured forth from us the audience was unlike anything I've ever encountered. Was her sound perfect? No. It didn't matter to her adoring fans.
Indeed a voice so utterly unique. May she rest in peace. She gave us moments of beauty❤️
ome to your week of success and next level. May you move to the next higher level this week. Happy New Week ❤🙏🏻😊
What a beautiful, and talented lady.
Она прекрасна!
It is very heart-warming to hear the true appreciation and love the audience is showing to Ms. Callas. There is something indeed very special about the opera audience of yester-year.
The audience at La Scala was vicious though 🤔
Великая! Слышно что голос не тот уже. Нервы, стрессы и потрясения дали о себе знать.... Вечная память❤
И я это услышала!Даже не поверилось.
Тем она и прекрасна! Она не только великая певица, но и ГЕНИАЛЬНАЯ ТРАГЕДИЙНАЯ АКТРИСА! НЕПРЕВЗОЙДЁННАЯ!!!
Спасибо
Божественная Мария Каллас! Люблю ее и жалею....💝💞👏👏👏
Слушать можно бесконечно этот волшебный голос. Браво!!!💐💐💐
As an elderly voice teacher in Boston said at the time: "It was worth the price of admission just to see Callas walk out on stage."

Still more than 40 years after her death she is the best selling classic vocalist and searched and streaming digitally more than any other opera singer. People go to the opera not only to hear "good singing ". For each of her detractors she has thousand of admirers. She is a legend.

She was simply SUBLIME! 😊
Как же прекрасна эта женщина! Грациозна, красива внешне. А как она одета?! Смотрю и смотрю на неё.Какое счастье, что она запечатлена для нас на плёнке навсегда. Скучно жить жить без таких людей,талантливых,красивых,необычных.Любимица публики во всём мире. Разве это не величие? Останется в веках она, Сasta DIva, Мария Каллас!
К сожалению,такие уникальные,в хорошем смысле слова не от мира сего люди не бывают счастливыми .
Even when her vocal cords were tired after all these years of so many extremely stunning and flawless performances of hers, even then she once more, she delivers perfection and for all of you who criticized her voice about not being at its best, the only way, even for the best of you, to reach 1/3 of Callas vocal ability is only possible if Callas was mute. So stop all these comments of idiotic insecurity and accept the fact that you will never be like her, not you, not anyone.
Most of us know that she was a genious singer... Something that will never appear again. After her it's difficlt to listen to another opera singer... But the real tragdy is , she sounds here often like a broken Stradivarius... And she feels that...
@@martinliebig8677 so what
She can make me wheep
Well said
❤ Браво на 100
Wonderful she was beautiful held the audience spell bound before and after singing, look at how she soaked in the applause

Wow! She sang with such emotion...right from her heart and soul! It's too bad she had such tragedy in her life. You can die from a broken heart and I think that's what happened to her back in 1977. May peace find her.

Maria is an actress, 👏 and amazing singer ...and probably much more 🌠❤
This year 2023 on December 2nd Maria Callas would be 100 years old. Probably the greatest opera singer of all time had to leave the world far too early at the age of 54, she died of a broken heart
A wonderful woman! An impeccable artist! An unforgettable Diva! I love Maria Callas❤️
She died of a broken heart. Her baby son from Onassis died shortly after birth. She left her first husband to be with Onassis who married Jacqueline Kennedy. Tragic and sad. Her gift and talent made her the most talented opera singer.
Belíssimo!!! Emocionante!!!! Voz Maviosa!!!!!
Died so young. They said she died of a heart attack. I say she died of a broken heart.. A rare talent and intellect. Such a huge loss.
For sure! A broken heart... I loved her. You can listen to a new Brazilian soprano Aline Legrand, is the same coloratura.
Chalice Guard beautiful comment. I think so. It’s so sad to see wonderful people like her end in such a lonely, sad manner. Admired by millions; loved sincerely by nobody. Sad and typical case of alone in the multitude.
The genius died so young ⭐
I love her 💖

Maria Callas, what a great voice, what a loss to the world. She diserved more love than she received.
She was one of the most human woman ever yet there was something divine in her, she was a phenomenon. I adore her.
C Henrique I agree with you !! She is THE BEST!!!
La Callas. Un moment de grâce... Un immense bonheur.. La Diva pour toujours.
So incredible. I can only speak of Maria Callas in superlatives. She was beyond superb. What a loss that she left us at so young an age.
Desde chiquitita he escuchado opera a través de mi padre que falleció el pasado 25 de febrero. Unos días antes empecé a escucharla de nuevo en el hospital mientras el moría y desde entonces es lo que calma mi dolor

God, I love her outfit here. So majestic!
Back when gowns were gorgeous.
Such an elegant stage presence; what an incredible persona.
she can be great even wrapped by brown paper bags...how can you resist the voice plus this, on any stage, pray to have a new Callas asap.
Simple but elegant fitted for her.
@@joegy9944 or made of sik and not polyester.. and fitted properly . Did you see Meghan markle's wedding dress? looked like off the back of Mrks and Spencer's sale.. I wonder if she has bad nerves and threw up after her final fitting or somthing.. but a plain dress it was and not well fitted.

The wonderful Maria Callas who will live forever in our hearts. The most beautiful opera voice in this world. My heart hurts when I think about the reason of her early death. This was her last concert after a long suffering caused by her broken heart..
No , she had the performance in Japan after this.
I hate how the media and critics were so harsh at her. I wish she found contentment and peace in her last performance.
Absolutely beautiful, The Kenney's brought me here. I was doing some digging on the past and I ended up finding this beautiful lady with a very amazing and unique voice. Something new to me for 2020 a good way to start my year listening to this kind of masterpiece that should still be listened to.🥰💝💞🙏🎶
Eloisa Aguilar 2020 at these heights we are have lost and still are losing amazing talents like this so going to looking at this is so refreshing. Let’s keep this alive for the rest of the future generations
The original diva.
Maria Callas the best forever, because she is singing from her deep soul that it touches and this last forever, it's heaven voice on earth ....bless her...
Mariac Callas so beautiful and graceful. We will never see another one like her, nor will anyone match that voice. she was loved and admired all around the world.
Even when not at her best, Maria Callas could sing any of today's so called stars to a standstill. With respect to Dame Joan, who was a miracle, Maria Callas is the standard against which others are tried and all fail.
Yes, the gold standard, but not all fail. Others have greatness too.
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Its nonsense to suggest the small harsh voice of Callas from 1956 onwards was ever a match for the true power and beauty of the voice of Renata tebaldi .

Late Callas or not, this recording ranks among the best ever of this lovely aria. No one criticizes the Parthenon for being in ruins. No one should criticize Callas for a couple of dodgy notes.

She was like a bright comet that streaked across the sky then fell to earth too soon. But while it was there none other was brighter.
What a unbelivable high level of performance!!!! WOW WOW
Посмотрела Елену Образцову. Как она отзывалась о Марии Каллос, восторг. Решила посмотреть саму Марию, восторг. Одновременно грустно, нет их в этом мире. Елена ушла счастливой. Мария-несчастной. Прости их, Всевышний!
И обе наградили этот мир, украсили своими чудесными голосами.

Who is watching this in 2021 what a voice so said she never lived long
La Callas sara' ricordata nei secoli a venire. Regina immortale, indimenticabile. indimenticabile
Her voice got better by the end of the tour. Watch the performance from Tokyo to see. So her voice was far from her zenith but the sheer magnitude of her acting and stage presence more than made up for it. She could have stood there and read the phone book and people would still have packed the auditorium.
Não há como comparar esta maravilhosa e talentosa soprano!!!Mesmo no pior momento de sua vida,ela simplesmente cantou!não tive o prazer de ouvi-la cantar ao vivo.Porem,me encanta ouvir estas gravações.Deixem as comparações para os que não sabem reconhecer o verdadeiro valor de uma joia preciosa.
