Few artists of the 20th century possessed Eileen's remarkable versatility, which is abundantly present in this video. Eileen's unshakable technique and vocal splendor remained constants no matter what she sang, while her command of style was nothing short of chameleonlike. Here she is heard torching Gershwin's 'But Not for Me' and singing several melodies that convey her deep love of French song. She also performs a wide range of arias, including a wonderfully conversational Un bel di, a lustrous Divinités du Styx, and a stirring Ritorna, vincitor! that will make fans regret she never tackled the complete role of Aida. This program showcases Eileen Farrell's extraordinary artistry across repertoire and genres.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the archives of Radio-Canada and the CBC (1968)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRepertoire and credits:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGluck: Alceste – Divinités du Styx\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePuccini: Madama Butterfly – Un bel di\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVerdi: Aida – Ritorna, vincitor!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePonchielli: La Gioconda – Suicidio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVerdi: La forza del destino – Pace, pace, mio Dio!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFauré: Les berceaux\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDebussy: La chevelure\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGershwin: 'But Not for Me' (Publisher: Warner Chappell Music)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerformers and credits:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEileen Farrell, soprano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOrchestre de Radio-Canada\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJean Deslauriers, conductor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith John Newmark, piano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDVD added feature:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEileen Farrell on The Bell Telephone Hour (in color)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWagner: Tristan und Isolde – Mild und leise (Liebestod)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduction notes \u0026amp; technical details:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Radio-Canada production © 1968\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePackaging \u0026amp; Design © 2004 Video Artists International, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCover photo by Louis Melançon, courtesy of Miss Farrell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAudio: Mono\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVideo: Format 4:3; Black \u0026amp; White \/ Color\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRegion Code: 0 (All regions)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSubtitles: English (optional)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRunning time: 51 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor DVD Player (North American NTSC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Video Artists International \/ CBC Home Video","offers":[{"title":"Used In Sleeve","offer_id":51132370092310,"sku":"130170","price":12.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/0377\/1710\/files\/2026319191914262scan_db8476ee-815c-415a-8743-91a7038ae4b4.jpg?v=1774390829","url":"https:\/\/www.neverdiemedia.com\/products\/eileen-farrell-an-american-prima-donna-2","provider":"NeverDieMedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
