    cretino , saccente , ignorante non lo sai che queste voci sono personali e personale e chi le ascolta ..... e tu sei nessuno , perche' nessuno puo' dire chi e come...forse come si ..... ma come chi...e' personale

    torna al conservatorio se mai ci sei stato

  • OMG you can hear the prompter so clearly :)

  • Add an opinion on pronunciation: Questionable to Milnes. Excellent that of Sutherland

  • Fully share the opinion of the synthetic mrantiquedealer, adding that the prompter was perhaps too close to microphones recording ...

  • RIP Joan Sutherland

  • Had no idea about prompter-boxes until I watched this. Interesting to hear the prompter's voice/had never heard that before. Do love how the ovation drowns out ***everything at the end of this 'number'. Thanks for posting.

  • Dame Joan 10+++++ Milnes 6-

  • @Richiesutherland Thank you for the prompter facts.-- I wrote what I did not know about, and have removed my comment. Good to learn the sublties of the opera house tradition--hundreds of years old. Santa Fe opera has opened--Faust--now in the house!

  • @windstorm1000 At this time, the house mikes were directly on the side of the prompter's box, amplifying anything the prompter said. It did NOT sound like this from the stage, I assure you, most of the prompters, with the exception of Adriano Petronio, mumbled the cue lines, ONLY raising their voice if the singer started to falter in their words. Please do not make the false assumption that these artists didn't know their parts--prompters do this every night at the Met.
