    Musetta has had the world at her feet for decades ever since the opera premiered in 1896.
    Olga Kulchynska is perfect for the role: dazzling, gorgeous, so self-confident; just one furtive glance and one disarming smile suffice to bewitch us, forcing us all to hold our breath, in awe and admiration, hoping the waltz never ends. Stunning peformance.

    Je découvre aujourd'hui votre prestation extraordinaire il y a 7 ans déjà. Je vous remercie pour donner à votre Musetta un caractère et une brillance à la fois tout à propos et hors du commun. Merci Madame.

    I've been watching this outstanding performance repeatedly. Olga Kulchynska is the ultimate example of what an opera singer must be. Not only a divine singer but an overwhelming actress (in the way acting is required). That includes how she perfectly articulates each word. Being portuguese my natural language, I understand italian reasonabily and catch each and every word. Opera is not only about technical skills, for there is a story to be told and audiences must understand it without the need of consulting the libretto all the time. For instance, you won't find another performance of this aria in which you can perceive so clearly a verse like "quando m'en vo soletta per la via" (singers tend to finish the sentence - "per la via" - just as a sequence of notes, making it imperceptible). Also remarkable is the way Olga moves and interacts, building the character with precision. Bravissima!

  • @xujia1001

    What a fine production!
    The moment Musetta starts to sing the aria, everyone turns to look at her, and the spotlight soon follows. She becomes the focal point of the entire stage. And credit to Benoit, who was about to eat right at that moment!
    Also one can't help but notice that everyone in the scene stays in character: the diners at other tables, the waitstaff, the bartender-all with different facial expressions. Some are curious, some are enjoying the scene, and some have "Let's see where this scandal ends" written all over their faces!
    When Mimi sings the accompaniment, Mrs. Buratto sings the high note with piano, while almost all the other sopranos would sing forte. Singing in piano seems the logical choice, considering it is Musseta who is at the center of the stage here.
    At least for this part of the opera, I think this edition is the best I have ever seen. And the recording quality is excellent too!
    Does anyone know where to see the whole opera?

    Outstanding! Such a range, so lyrical. I admit to being quite a bit in love with your Musetta - most of the others I've seen don't have the emotional range, nor the presence to stand out among the cast without being clad in some flouncy red dress (the 'scarlet woman'?) like you wore in the Met version, and as others wear. You have an edge of warmth to your voice that is most agreeable, even when you are scolding.
    For once, this scene is about actors singing, rather than the other way... your acting displays Musetta's provocation, anger, attempts at placation, and her playfulness fully, and your voice is appropriate to those actions.
    Of course, there's the intimacy of this recording - close-ups, and the focus on other actors, but there's also the incidentals: The whole cafe doesn't stop and gaze at Musetta here. No, sailors carry on eating, nuns drift away, autograph seekers get pulled out by their hair, and an older lady pours red wine. Kudos to Jonathan Miller for his directing and for helping you 'pull the right face' and bring out the best in you. This looks to be made for a film or TV
    I wonder what Puccini would have thought? He died in 1924 - about the era when this version is set, I think. Would he approve (and I wonder if he'd cringe, like I do, at the English National Opera's modern version 'Drive and Live')?
    Oh , I do wish you had more info on your website - I can't find anything more about this version. You haven't even included it on there - you should do... this is a wondrous display of your voice and talent.
