I love this woman as much as the singer! She is VASTLY underrated, having a marvellous sense of humour, so much wit, sublime grasp of Mozart & Schubert in particular, & a fabulous VOICE. She never overused vibrato & never underused herself or her soul. Brava! Even on Da Capo, much older &, alas, dying, she looks like the magnificent personality she undoubtedly was! BRAVA!
