    One of the greatest artists of all time… She sang it all – and flawlessly. My two favorite Ludwig moments: her Leonore (the essence of humanity) and, on the Bohm “Cosi,” the way she sighs the phrase of recitativo right before launching into “Prendero quel brunettino” – matchless…

    Thank you SO much, James. I loved that live atg the time and am so happy to have seen it again. What an incredible performer!

    Frankly, I find this irresponsible. Dancing on a stage far away from home. And who is taking care of little Marc?

  • Cocky Kurwenal says:

    LOL @ Buster!
