I must agree, this is best dramatic scene. Maria Callas is of course godess, but this she didn't act. I prefer Mirella Freni.
-
my favorite is that her voice always has color to her retirement

I am french and I did understand every words... I think she's perfect and I just love her heavy voice! She's my favorite soprano with Price!!!

impareggiabile mirella freni........

You know, give me singing like this with questionable French ANY day... yes, we are coached to death, and generally people have "proper" diction nowadays, but we'd be hard pressed to find this kind singing today. Are there some wonderful voices out there...? Of course! But, now we have very few sopranos with this kind of vocal security.

not bad!?
Kraus made history in French repertory.
I see this discussion leads nowhere. Enjoy your music and thanks for sharing opinions.

Mirella Freni is my favorite Marguerite. She has a strong, dramatic voice but she is able to ACT with her voice. Her lyric voice is expressive and a huge voice is not a bad thing to have at all. Her French diction is very good, so I don't know why people say it isn't. Maria Callas sang this aria quite well - and she was not French. Kiri Te Kanawa, Joan Sutherland, Montserrat Caballe, Beverly Sills and many other non-French sopranos sing this well. Opera has no nationality. It is universal.

dear dennisdeem if you study up a bit more you will notice that very often the standard in a language is set by non native speakers (think of french and Gedda or Kraus). It is not a sacrilege to say that a native speaker doesn't articulate enough... as long as you can appreciate that sometimes amazing singers didn't articulate much but still gave us sounds to dream for...
