else.\u003cbr\u003e The author said that he felt it was necessary to talk about Callas in order to properly understand her and, furthermore, to understand opera more deeply. \u003cbr\u003eNumerous books about Callas are filled with rumors and gossip, often of dubious authenticity, or are filled with lists of concert schedules and recordings, making them difficult to read for anyone but a dedicated fan.\u003cbr\u003e This book goes beyond simply collecting and listing information about the person Callas, but approaches it from a psychological perspective to bring Callas to life as a

enough to audition in front of Hidalgo thanks to her mother's enthusiasm.\u003cbr\u003e Hidalgo recalled the first time he met Maria. \u003cbr\u003e“It was absurd to ask such an ugly and country girl to become an opera singer.” But after hearing Maria sing, Hidalgo soon realized that he had found a student with the greatest talent.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Because Callas could not memorize all the lyrics to \"The Puritans,\" a prompter sang them from below the stage.\u003cbr\u003e Even though he occasionally got the lyrics wrong, it didn't stop him from moving the audience.\u003cbr\u003e Vocal-wise, it was perfect.\u003cbr\u003e Both operas ended beautifully.\u003cbr\u003e After hearing this legendary story, Zephyrelli explained:\u003cbr\u003e “So to speak, Callas is Birgit Nilsson today and Beverly Sills tomorrow.\u003cbr\u003e “It was a miracle,” one said. “It was like a player playing football in the National Football League one day and baseball in the Major League the next.”\u003cbr\u003e --- p.55\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOn days when Callas was on stage, the tenor sang better than usual.\u003cbr\u003e There are legends that say the conductor and orchestra were better, the ushers were better at guiding people to their seats, and the ticket booth staff were more friendly in selling tickets.\u003cbr\u003e Even the audience was better dressed and more quietly focused on the performance.\u003cbr\u003e So on days like that, everything in the theater was perfect.\u003cbr\u003e If a restaurant has a chef who is confident in his food or whose staff is proud of him, the waiters who serve the food will also have a more confident expression and be more friendly.\u003cbr\u003e So, it is the same reason why the dining atmosphere is good and the food tastes even better.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Scala's 1955 production of La Traviata remains legendary.\u003cbr\u003e Since then, La Traviata has not been performed at Scala. \u003cbr\u003eAs long as anyone living in Milan remembered Callas's performances, no soprano dared to sing Violetta.\u003cbr\u003e After that, it was 30 years before La Traviata was staged at La Scala.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- p.132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Upon arriving at Orly Airport, unexpectedly, many reporters and cameramen were waiting for her on the runway.\u003cbr\u003e It's just a transfer, though.\u003cbr\u003e Besides, until then Maria had never sung a single song in Paris.\u003cbr\u003e However, the reporters who had gathered were very friendly to Callas, and Callas liked Paris from the first impression.\u003cbr\u003e Thanks to the many cameras from that time, we can still see Callas's appearance and interviews from that time.\u003cbr\u003e Callas answers reporters' questions with a big smile on her face, wearing a stylish coat and holding a toy in one hand.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.162\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe performances traveled across Germany from Hamburg to Berlin, Düsseldorf, Munich, Frankfurt, and Mannheim, before moving on to Madrid, Paris, Amsterdam, Milan, and Stuttgart.\u003cbr\u003e So European fans were able to witness the ultimate tragedy right before their eyes.\u003cbr\u003e A washed-up soprano, accompanied by a washed-up tenor, sang a tragic aria in a high note that was too high to even reach, squeezing her completely broken voice as she accompanied a pianist on the verge of death.\u003cbr\u003e It was a funeral where the myth of Callas, which should have been preserved in a museum, was brought to the stage and torn apart before the audience's eyes.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Callas died in her apartment at 1:30 p.m. on September 16, 1977.\u003cbr\u003e Bruna had her long, well-combed hair elegantly draped over her head.\u003cbr\u003e The cause of death was announced as cardiac arrest.\u003cbr\u003e The funeral was held on the afternoon of September 20th at the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Georges Bizet. \u003cbr\u003eThe funeral was simple, but the numerous wreaths were different from other funerals.\u003cbr\u003e The wreath featured the names of the French and Greek presidents and the world's leading theaters.\u003cbr\u003e But the biggest difference was the sheer number of reporters and cameramen.\u003cbr\u003e The priest's voice couldn't even be heard because of the sound of the camera shutter.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Callas still lives on, until the countless recordings she left behind are lost.\u003cbr\u003e Just as the mother who passed away lives in everyone's heart.\u003cbr\u003e Even at this very moment, somewhere on Earth, Callas's song is probably playing.\u003cbr\u003e As long as the word art, the word opera, exists, its name will never be forgotten.\u003cbr\u003e She came to this land a hundred years ago.\u003cbr\u003e It is something to be thankful for.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e --- p.235\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \",\"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e

However, through record-breaking weight loss and constant training, she became a saint of opera that dominated the world for a century.\u003cbr\u003e But on the other hand, Callas was helpless in the face of love, to the point of throwing away her fiercely built career.\u003cbr\u003e He met the greatest Greek shipping magnate and became the subject of a scandal when he formed a love triangle with Jacqueline Kennedy.\u003cbr\u003e At one time, he seemed to have achieved everything: work, success, and love, but in his later years, he became a recluse, dependent on antidepressants.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Although Callas displayed natural charisma on stage, off stage she was awkward with people and had no eye for people. \u003cbr\u003eThis is because, after being dragged by his ambitious mother to enroll in the Greek National Conservatory at the age of thirteen, he knew nothing but music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book unfolds, like a movie, the trials and tribulations, dreams, successes and downfalls of the individual Callas, born the second daughter of poor American immigrants and known as the greatest diva of opera.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWith the best song and the best acting\u003cbr\u003e Rewriting opera history\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Opera director Franco Zeffirelli said, “The history of opera is divided into before and after Callas.”\u003cbr\u003e Callas transformed opera from a \"ridiculous spectacle of fat people squeezing their throats\" into a natural and moving genre.\u003cbr\u003e Callas achieved both the best singing and the best acting, and combined them to maximize the perfection of the opera.\u003cbr\u003e In short, she acted with her voice and sang with her eyes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCallas is also known as the singer who introduced acting to opera.\u003cbr\u003e Until then, opera singers had only sung beautifully like a nightingale, but Callas immersed the audience in the drama on stage with her unique, heavy tone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Callas is also famous for being the first singer to simultaneously sing the powerful and dramatic female warrior Brünnhilde in Die Walküre and the fragile and delicate country girl Elvira driven mad by love in I Puritani.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the history of opera, Callas left a great mark by reviving bel canto opera.\u003cbr\u003e Bel canto operas, such as those by Rossini, Donizetti, and Bellini, which were popular until the early 19th century, disappeared from theaters around 1840.\u003cbr\u003e What took its place were later Verdi, Wagner, Puccini and verismo operas. \u003cbr\u003eCallas revived music that had not been properly sung for a long time, using the repertoire sung by Giuditta Pasta, a legendary soprano of the bel canto era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In addition, Callas had an advantage in learning and expressing music based on her outstanding piano skills, and she also had excellent memorization skills.\u003cbr\u003e Just as he trained by memorizing the sheet music that his teacher, Hidalgo, lent him during his school days, he was famous for memorizing songs accurately in a short period of time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The genius opera singer Callas, who came a hundred years ago, left us with many stories.\u003cbr\u003e This book immerses you in the life of Callas, who lived a life more dramatic than a single opera.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThrough the greatest prima donna in opera history\u003cbr\u003e A book that will help you understand the essence of opera art.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The strength of this book is that it clearly and concisely organizes the history of the legendary singer Callas. \u003cbr\u003eIt vividly describes her journey from her studies with Hidalgo in Greece, to her debut in Verona, her success in Florence, and her reign as the queen of opera with La Scala at her feet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the process, readers will learn about the masterpieces of bel canto opera and who the famous Italian opera houses and masters are.\u003cbr\u003e You will also encounter various stories, including the practices of old opera, the culture of Italian theater, the rivalries between contemporary singers, and various rumors that have now become legends.\u003cbr\u003e Meanwhile, this book also introduces legendary albums produced by the world-renowned record company EMI (now Warner Music).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But the most important narrative regarding the career of the opera singer Callas is the influence she had on the world of opera. \u003cbr\u003eThe author points out that at first glance, he was a singer with a \"bad voice\" and a different sound in each register, but through rigorous training, he turned that weakness into a strength.\u003cbr\u003e He points out that he has succeeded in perfectly reproducing various roles with a \"charismatic personality and charisma that you can't forget once you hear it\" and a tone with a very wide range of expression.\u003cbr\u003e It revealed the depth of operatic art not only through singing but also through extreme immersion and acting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Continuing her success in opera houses around the world, including Milan, London, Vienna, and New York, Callas collaborated with great artists such as Tullio Seraphine, Erich Kleiber, Leonard Bernstein, and Visconti.\u003cbr\u003e The meeting of these people who influenced an era and the stories behind them are also exciting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe life story of Callas, a person as dramatic as an opera\u003cbr\u003e Live in song and fall in love\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe author divides Callas's life into five 'acts', as if it were an opera.\u003cbr\u003e Her story is one of success built on unwavering will, but it is also a tragic tale of a steep fall from grace, born of human flaws.\u003cbr\u003e Her life is an opera in itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Callas had to spend her adolescence without a father due to her parents' divorce.\u003cbr\u003e Callas, who was even blocked from receiving her father's letters by her mother, never overcame this deficiency.\u003cbr\u003e Despite her teacher Hidalgo's advice to leave Greece and go to Italy, the home of opera, Callas headed to the United States where her father was.\u003cbr\u003e The lack of fatherhood also changed her view of men.\u003cbr\u003e Her ideal man was someone who was older, stylish, and stable.\u003cbr\u003e Callas was drawn to older conductors and directors throughout her life who treated her like a daughter. \u003cbr\u003eAt the age of twenty-six, Callas married Meneghini, who was fifty-two and twice her age, and who was almost the same age as her father when she left him and went to Greece.\u003cbr\u003e With this marriage, Callas gained a husband, a patron, a manager, and psychological stability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But she lived an unfortunate life because of the men she considered her a haven.\u003cbr\u003e Her husband was against having the child she so desperately wanted.\u003cbr\u003e Because it was said to be interfering with her career.\u003cbr\u003e Onassis, who chose to abandon her husband, also did not want children because she already had two children.\u003cbr\u003e To him, she was merely a flashy trophy to match his success; he did not understand the musician Callas.\u003cbr\u003e Callas dreamed of being a happy mother in an ordinary family, but reality did not allow for that.\u003cbr\u003e Moreover, Onassis ended up marrying another woman, which drove Callas to despair. \u003cbr\u003eShe loses her love and is unable to escape the swamp of loss, and her life as a singer also comes to an end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Callas died of a heart attack in her Paris apartment in 1977 at the young age of 54, but like so many operatic heroines she played on stage, she died because of love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe final tour of the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese archipelago\u003cbr\u003e The Legacy of Callas We Loved\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Callas reached the top of the world opera scene in about three years.\u003cbr\u003e During her short singing career of about 10 years, she sang about 50 operas and was said to have best conveyed the composer's intentions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Her last performance was on a Far East tour in 1974.\u003cbr\u003e On October 5th and 8th, Callas appeared before the Asian audience at the Ewha Womans University auditorium.\u003cbr\u003e Even now, quite a few people remember this performance. \u003cbr\u003eIt became such a hot topic that the Korea Railroad Corporation adjusted the train schedule on the Gyeongui Line to block the train's whistle sound during the performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e After two performances in Seoul, Callas and her ensemble moved on to Japan, performing the same program twice in Tokyo, then in Osaka and Hiroshima.\u003cbr\u003e And on November 11, 1974, Callas appeared in public for the last time in Sapporo.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Many people regret not having seen Callas perform at the time, but in that performance, Callas sang with a forced voice that was not there.\u003cbr\u003e Callas ended up in a small corner of the world music world that no one remembered.\u003cbr\u003e Callas wandered the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese archipelago with a retired tenor and a dying pianist, and sang her last song in a small town in the northernmost part of Japan. \u003cbr\u003eThis tour gave Callas hopes of a comeback, but ultimately failed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When we play Callas's 130+ albums, we hear her voice at its finest.\u003cbr\u003e She is gone, but her music lives on.\u003cbr\u003e Callas is still very much alive.\u003cbr\u003e She doesn't disappear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “A person dies twice.\u003cbr\u003e You die once physically, and then you die again when those who remember you on earth completely disappear.\u003cbr\u003e That is real death.\u003cbr\u003e In that sense, Callas is not dead.”\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e
