I love this duet. But the soprano is wobbly, and considering she makes us guess what vowel she was singing on "au BRUIT de la guerre", fakes the trills, and sings ornaments that she can't actually sing (right before the bridge section, for one), there are technical issues at work.
I was there for this and she did much better than I expected after seeing her in a small town recital this past summer. I prefer Damrau but Partridge should be proud of her performance. She can really act it too.

Thank you for putting this up! Do you have a recording of the whole show?
