I love Celeste Aida. It’s the benchmark for me for tenor arias. Luciano is a master. No doubt. Thank you for this clip

[reafro]

So beautiful! I love to sing this aria myself, but will never be able to sing it as good as the Maestro himself!
Pity he's no longer among us... But fortunately we have the videos and recordings!

[DrJaniceLester]

Magnificent! What a beast of an aria: He masters it.

[tenorschofield]

Bravo che bel' canto di Luciano Pavarotti, una vera "master class" in scena, bravo!!!!

[dobermanism]

Thank you Luciano for the wonderful memories of meeting you on that moonlit evening in May 1980. Thank you for your time. We will meet again someday across the beautiful Rainbow 🌈 Bridge.

[aidacabrera]

Luciano te adoro, mi niño santo ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[trilobit]

Luciano is perfect as always. His voice is very lyric, but no doubt ... he is Radames. Nice phrasing and very nice singing. Roberto Alagna listen and learn, please

[vitorhaase]

Se quel guerrier
Io fossi! se il mio sogno
S'avverasse!... Un esercito di prodi
Da me guidato... e la vittoria... e il plauso
Di Menfi tutta! E a te, mia dolce Aida,
Tornar di lauri cinto...
Dirti: per te ho pugnato, per to ho vinto!

Celeste Aida, forma divina.
Mistico serto di luce e fior,
Del mio pensiero tu sei regina,
Tu di mia vita sei lo splendor.

Il tuo bel cielo vorrei redarti,
Le dolci brezze del patrio suol;
Un regal serta sul crin posarti,
Ergerti un trono vicino al sol.

Celeste Aida, forma divina,
Mistico raggio di luce e fior, ecc.

English Translation in Lyrics

If that gurrier

I were! if my dream

It must be... A soldier's army

He drove me ... and the victory ... and the applause

Of Menfi all! And to you, my Sweet Aida

Tomar of lauri cinto ...

I tell you: for you I have pugged, for that I have won!

Celeste Aida, divine form.

Mystical serpent of light and flower,

Of my thinking you are queen,

You of my life are the splendor,

Your beautiful sky I want to crush,

The gentle breeze of the patriotic salt;

A regal serene on the crin posarti,

Pick up a throne near the salt.

Hear is your Lyrics in English Version

[mercury-pavarotti]

apesar de no tener un buen dia, sigue siendo el que mejor canta esta aria.el final no hay nadie que lo haga como el.gracias luciano.

[parsifal]

Who decided to cut the last couple notes of the winds?! The aria isn't over with the last note of the singer!!

[aidaparra]

Que Radames más precioso, bella Romanza ❤❤❤❤

[Հայյա]

Beautiful Man beautiful powerful voice 👏🤍✨

[EmiliaCanon]

❤quiero escuchar y enviar Aída por L. Pavaritti

[arbiter]

Si dice che "Celeste Aida" sia ancora più complessa di "Nessun dorma". Per me nulla è coinvolgente come il terzo atto della Turandot. Ma il Maestro rende memorabile ogni suo pezzo.

[ILBARONE]

THE Best aria to judge everyone by is 'UNA FURTIVA LACRIMA' From Elixir Della Amore.
Listen to Pav then play others and pay close attention AFTER he sing softly he rises up a crescendo, sustains and ends in a TRILL.. He utilized that aria as a 'Esercitazione le Voce', day of Concert or Opera.If he felt resounding he would drink a few oz of PURE Balsamico and More 15 min b/4 going on stage. Always had bottles from his Hometown MODENA. I know I have seen him do it and so do I.

[AD-qwru]

Como sabías tú !?!; Ô Verdi muy cerca de verdad !

[ILBARONE]

ROB Froeling;NO ONE CAN Luciano was the GREATEST 'SINGER' Beyond OPERA Far advanced over Caruso whom had mostly a high BARITONE Voice, Placido as well. Notice Placido when in Duet with TENORS resorts to screaming, he can't help it as he is true Baritone. When he duets with Soprano he even sing One octave LOWER than aria was written.. Andrea Bocelli has Great Voice and his upper register Close to Pav however no TRILL Nor sustain, M. Lanza great his staying power wanes, hear him Live you will KNOW.
