I actually like the wig.. but I don't love the performance. She seems like she's shouting in spots... it takes away from the lovely melody. That being said, she is a very talented singer and performer, and it's easy to criticize a video of someone when you chop just the aria apart, and put it on a little 3x5" screen, and through computer speakers!And it's easy to be picky when it's not YOU who's the one singing, from behind a computer!

An other exellent Michaëla is the other Romanian soprano L Vaduva. I have seen both in stage in this rôle and they were exellent!

her french is very good, she just colours her "a" and "è" because it is very difficult to sing. She sings it very beautifuly, very romantic, i love it !

Who else was in the cast....I know Domingo was Don Jose but who were Carmen and Escamillo?

@Tristiano i don`t know why you would say slavic tones???!! romanian is the most latin language of them all by far. Before you post rubbish read more about people. romanians are latinos and romania is a latin country !

I''m not usually an Angela fan but she nailed this one

i love her singing, but i feel like she could do so much more with the character and let go of her diaphragm.
it's still a great performance, though! :-)
Angela Gheorghiu and Mirella Freni both sang very strong, heavy toned Micaelas. Micaela is far from weak. She loves Don Jose and is ready to fight for him. Bizet's music for this aria is strong and expressive. She is passionate and prays to God desperately for courage! It's the biggest aria in the opera. A big lyric voice can do the role justice. This is a marvelous aria - and in fact it far outshines anything Carmen sings in the opera.

That was probably the best I've heard her sing.
