I'm going to blame that on the sound quality. She sounds like she's very good. Although the outfit kinda scares me but I love twisted versions of this song.
Oh it's fantastic! I saw her do this at the Met in the 80's in a very lavish production, and it's still one of the very best things I ever saw on that stage. To sing at such a high level and perform such mechanical moves at the same is a real feat. Brava!
this really impressed me. she is completely mechanical...and check out her feet and hands!! they are so funny. she obviously really studied dolls. this is a performance I love because I respect her so much for her acting.
It has ALWAYS been the custom to add things, to make it unique for each singer. Especially the second time around.
Ruth was one of the great true Bel canto singers. She and Kraus together were wonderful. She knew her voice type and stuck with it. No getting her to take on too heavy a role.
And, yes she did study those mechanical dolls. If you notice there is not a phrase without some small movement, just as would be the case if she were a wind up singing doll!

I think they went waaaaay overboard with the the automaton stuff. Hoffman has to still believe that she's a real person.
