Mirella Freni is the best Susanna ever. I've listened to many others. Anna Moffo's Susanna in the Giulini recording is exquisite as well but Freni, especially in this film, is really right on the money on how Susanna should act and sing. She is perfectly in character and her singing is flawless and gorgeous. Brava Freni
Beautiful singing from Freni, as usual. Love how they took advantage of the film medium by having Susanna sing standing far away and making it look like the Countess is singing. And nice idea having Cherubino sing Don Giovanni's champagne aria - cute!
Ponnelle et Mirella méritent le Prix Nobel de l'Opéra pour avoir réalisé cette scène magique

Every moment in Freni's performance here is angelic and precious. The rest of the cast is great too.
I love this production of Le nozze di Figaro the best. The cast is stellar.

I can't think of a single soprano today who equals her talent. No wonder they started letting mezzos sing this part.

Il finale è il mio prezzo preferito in assoluto!
11 minuti di pura poesia!
