Interesting interview, thank you for sharing :)

It's not that widely debated, you couldn't sing the coloratura in Ernani..... how do you even attempt Bellini??? 😂

[@jaybee2838]

Maybe she'll slow things down so much that Bellini's music will become unrecognisable?

[@dillonhaynes8688]

I guess the debate about what kind of soprano she is will continue for the ages! So fiercely debated!

[@dillonhaynes8688]

Maybe the real debate should be whether or not I buy a ticket to see this or not? Hopefully the opera house is empty, and not because of strike...

[@dillonhaynes8688]

Then again as long as they don't try a blackface Beatrice Tamara will at least show up.....right
