  • Only the monumentally ignorant will fail to acknowledge Robin's genius. Her early death was a terrible loss to lovers of great operatic art. Detractors claim she was a freak - far from it. She was simply unusually gifted.

  • The good: her legendary upper range

    The bad: the accomodations the conductor had to make.

    The hilarious: A) Her hair (from a distance looks like curlers under a net)

    B) her mouth - unhinges like a crocodile.

    C) The children observers seen once and never again

    D) Her 'ladies in waiting' - esp the one seen directly behind her. She looks like she smells a dead fish. Maybe she feels ridiculous with that bow in her hair.

    Folks, this is CAMP!!! pure and simple and for that, a gem.

  • @ernest671 Yma who? I got Erna Sack, but I don't know the other...

  • Vidéo très émouvante pour une voix unique...

  • @Joyeeplee Si la valse de Mireille n'est pas dans Mireille de Gounod je me demande bien où peut-elle être? Charles Gounod a composé cette valse à la demande de la créatrice du rôle Marie Caroline Miolan-Carvalho qui créa d'ailleurs deux autres oeuvres de Gounod: Faust et Roméo et Juliette! Et bien entendu c'est aussi à la demande (presque sur ordre de celle-ci) que Gounod inséra L'air des bijoux dans Faust et la valse (Je veux vivre dans le rêve) dans Roméo et Juliette! ;)

  • @Rsutherland8 Someone doesn't know about singing in a high range. You HAVE to unhinge your jaw.

  • sorry but this is not in Mireille of Gounod

  • Please contribute your vocal interpretations of the aria and then we'll talk.

  • @ernest671 I AGREE WITH YOU. AND THEY SING EFFORTLESSLY.

  • @Rsutherland8 you made me laugh when you said mado robins mouth unhinges like a croc. its also like a hyenas mouth yawning on a lazy, hot afternoon. and the lady behind her seems to be fainting by mados overwhelming high notes.

  • The sopranos with the best upper range were Mado, Erna and Yma, right???
