Review by Zachary Burns

The album "Madama Butterfly Selezione Dall Opera" by Giacomo Puccini, Maria Callas, Nicolai Gedda, Mario Borriello, Herbert Von Karajan, Teatro Alla Scala, Lucia Danieli, and Renato Ercolani is a stunning collection of performances that showcases the beauty and power of Puccini's masterpiece. The album features some of the most renowned artists in the opera world, including the legendary Maria Callas, whose interpretation of the role of Cio-Cio-San is a highlight of the album.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "Un bel di vedremo," sung by Callas with a delicate and poignant grace that perfectly captures the character's longing and hope. Nicolai Gedda's portrayal of Pinkerton is equally impressive, with his rich tenor voice conveying both the character's charm and callousness.

The album is expertly conducted by Herbert Von Karajan, who brings out the intricate textures and emotional depth of Puccini's score. The orchestra of Teatro Alla Scala provides a lush and evocative backdrop for the singers, with the strings adding a particularly poignant touch to the tragic final act.

The supporting cast, including Mario Borriello, Lucia Danieli, and Renato Ercolani, all deliver strong performances, adding depth and nuance to the opera's various characters.

Comments

Sadly the Callas voice is not for Puccini far too thin and harsh .
tellement magnifique , poignant ...!
Madame Callas at her ultimate
belle beauté, quelle voix exceptionnelle
Maria e' eccelsa ma Gedda un pesce lesso...terribile..rovina ogni cosa..come glie' venuto in mente a Karajan e alla Emi di preferirlo ad altri...
magnifique !!!
Maria Callas & Nicolai Gedda. en una gran interpretación
Love this so much! The very beginning of the duet... ah, those strings make me feel as if I lived in a dream.
legendary
What more is to say? Callas the Divine...she deserves no less a title...for eternity!!!!!
Simply wonderful. Few singers have the incredible mastery of legato that Callas demonstrates here. All Karajan's opera recordings from this period are heavenly. The C at the end bothers me a bit--perhaps they didnt want to tamper with an otherwise perfect take.
R.I.P. my dearest James L. Vandenberg. I will always think of you as long as this recording is in existence.

Si le portrait de Butterfly par Callas est aussi émouvant, c’est en partie parce qu'il recrée, pour ces premiers épisodes, une fillette capable de dignité tragique, puis, dans la seconde moitié de l'opéra, lorsque l'expérience plus que les années auront apporté la maturité, parce qu'il associe de façon constante le timbre de l'enfant et la voix de l'adulte. Son approche imaginative du rôle est ainsi merveilleusement complète.

Tout l'enregistrement est d'une grande richesse de détail. De manière plus forte peut-être que dans aucun autre de ses enregistrements, chaque phrase semble ici avoir quelque chose de spécial, et l'on pourrait écrire un livre entier pour mettre l'accent sur ce que nous appelons "interprétation". En un sens, ce faisant, nous ne rendons pas justice à Callas. Car son art était avant tout celui du chant, et derrière du talent de l'interprète, on en finit parfois par perdre de vue la cantatrice.

A cette époque, en 1955, sa voix pouvait encore être un instrument d'une beauté très particulière. Dans cet enregistrement de Madama Butterfly, certaines notes aigües sont à vif, sous l'effet d'une pulsion capricieuse— le ré bémol
concluant la scène d'entrée en étant le premier exemple. Mais, globalement, son chant est beau en tant que chant "pur
genios !!!
Bellisima en todas sus dimensiones! Vivir con honor o no vivir!
Éste 10 de NOVIEMBRE de 2022 en el Teatro del Libertador de la Ciudad de Córdoba Argentina tendré la gran responsabilidad y el inmenso honor de interpretar a Mándame Butterfly, bajo la dirección del maestro coreano Jongwhi Vakh Park con la Orquesta Sinfónica de Córdoba y el Coro Polifonico de Córdoba! Vengan!!!
I played in the pit orchestra in Australia and we did 9 performances in which I witnessed Madame Butterfly die 9 times !!!
Thank you very much!
She really makes the role of Butterfly sound maneagable, putting less emphasis on the lesser dramatic parts allowing one to save up all that passion for the big scenes
I know it's said that Tosca is Puccini's most Wagnerian opera, but I think this one is even moreso. Mainly in the eroticism of the love music, but also in a lot of other details. 1:44:37 for example is essentially Hagen's leitmotif straight up lifted from Götterdämmerung, almost note-for-note
Y más al ser interpretada por la mejor soprano de la historia: María Callas
17:05, 49:00
Una magnífica y bella voz con gran inteligencia musical y afinación perfecta no definen ni hacen a un o una gran cantante de ópera si no tiene un perfecto y gran y clarísimo fraseo y dicción. El fraseo y dicción si marcan una diferencia y " hacen" a un o una cantante de ópera de primerísima calidad de lujo.
Yo estudié canto y mi profesora de canto fue a su vez cantante de ópera en Italia y ella fue alumna de canto del célebre "maestro Lari" y del también famoso maestro profesor Paolo Antonio marido nada menos que de Toti dal Monte y profesor y hacedor de esta famosa cantante y mi maestra de canto ponía énfasis y hacia casi prioridad en el "fraseo" y dicción como le enseñaron a ella estos dos grandes y célebres maestros profesores de canto. Sobre todo Paolo Antonio y esa es la perfecta escuela operatica estilo italiano periodo Toti dal Monte. Callas la tenía tiene y tendrá pero hoy la calidad ya está perdida! Mucho marketing...
Mi ópera favorita, nunca me cansaré de escucharla
