This is a video clip from a CBC Broadcast from years ago that chronicles the time in Ben Heppner's career when he was coaching the role of Peter Grimes with Bill Neill and his wife, the late Dixie Ross-Neill.
His diction is AMAZING! I know he's Welsh, but even the most well-spoken Brit or American finds it hard to sing in English without a word or two being mushy and not understood, but I understood every word he said! Not to mention his voice and acting here, very stellar!
@rlee1976: Heppner is Canadian, not Welsh.
