More people should listen to Barbara Haveman

Unfortunately, Barbara Haveman does not perform very much anymore and she did not leave many recordings.

An excellent Tove on the Stenz Gurre-Lieder (CD) and her Hélène on the Loy Vêpres siciliennes (DVD) are her best known performances. I will always remember her in the Konwitschny Don Carlos (sung in French, Hamburg 2013). This clip shows how great she was in the part.
