The wig is a disaster, don't know her real hair, but it must have fitted better!

@katieboyd1 - Felicity Lott? You mean the 1975 version with the London Phil? Those are the most languid tempi I've ever heard called urgent.. and I think it's commendable that Dawn takes acting risks to approach a young, terrified, passionate version of Anne that I find to be plenty urgent.
-
she is amazing
-
ah, what fun. kinda under on the C at the end, but hey, she's not afraid to act, at least.
-
Her diction is pristine.

i am very outnumbered here but I completely detest this. I much prefer the Cathryn Pope and Felicity lot versions. Pope brings out all the beauty and lyricism in the music with a smoother vocal line, and Lott captures more of the urgency and despair in the situation whilst still appearing optimistic about her future. Upshaw is just screaming half the time, she doesn't connect up all the dots in the music
-
super.
-
she is the best
-
almost perfect

@papoocanada It really did bomb at the Met, didn't it? The avant-gardists hated it because the music was so deliberately simple, but it wasn't a crowd-pleaser either (even with show-stopping arias like this one) perhaps because it can seem so cold and intellectualized and ironic.
I loved the score from when I first heard it, but I can understand why it didn't take off originally. Though I don't quite know why it provoked so much anger at the time. Maybe it was the staging as well as the music.
