La Bohème in Rehearsal 

Wow, a hauntingly beautiful voice and very expressive and beautifully nuanced phrasing! No forced, self-indulgent or hushed singing, all very tasteful and musical. I look forward to hearing more of Anita Hartig. I'm pretty sure she is going to be one of the most valuable stars of the last years.

One of the best voices that I´ve heard in my life...really really a wonderful surprise!!!

I love her voice! There's something about it that's so warm and effortless.

I was in for a very pleasant surprise when she started singing. A very beautiful voice, but her interpretation and sincerity in what she's singing is what makes this a joy to my ears.

How do they sing, act, keep time to the music, and express their face, all in a foreign language, and all at the same time? Almost unbelievable!

I'm so proud,she is a romanian singer and sing so clear and efortless like our Angela Gheorghiu ! Bravo,bravissimo !

She is so special--it's the singing, of course, but it's also her self, her soul (and it seems to be a beautiful one) that comes out when she sings....

Anita, voice of an angel ♥️

Damme! I am in love again! Way to go, Anita!

Wonderful rendition of this aria! I would love to see Ms Hartig return to the MET as Mimì.

Wonderful phrasing, gorgeous voice💎

Wow! What a beautiful voice she has, what a talent and gift! If I was Peter Gelb, I would lock her up at the MET for as long as I could. As the MET stars age, some gracefully some not so gracefully, they really could use this soprano, as the next potentially great MET diva.

Brava!!! NEW Mimi. Perfect!!!!!! So beautiful...elegant and touching... but.... to me, Best Mimi is HEI-KYUNG HONG forever.

Can't wait to see her in the complete performance. She is great in Carmen.

Gosh her voice is amazing. It reminds be a bit of Callas, but in a less metallic kind of way. Her voice is light, effortless, gracious... wow.

Voice as rich and lyrical as Stratas!

Beautiful voice and perfect control; besides, she is much more beautiful without the makeup.

this aria always makes me want to cry.......

amazing

A true nightingale...

Unfair comparison: piano rehearsal vs performance but I find Hartig here to be a lot more compelling than Opolais as seen recently in the broadcast. To her credit, Opolais took an immense risk singing Mimi less than 24 hours after Butterfly the night before. However, I find Hartig’s voice perfect for Mimi. Her phrasing is exquisite and somehow she manages to bring new accents to an aria that has been heard so many times. Opolais cannot transmit intimacy and vulnerability like it seems Hartig could. Bravissima!

Terrific!

Bravo!

bravo!!

wow!!

I agree, reminds me of stratas

Anita's beauty of voice: Rosa Ponselle, Gundula Janowitz.

Belíssimo!

Beautifu voice very fresh just some sound should more cover .Freni teachs and can’t forget her voice

Questa sì che avrei voluto sentire dal Metropolitan l'8 aprile 2014 , non Kristine Opolais, che all'ultimo momento l'ha sostituita.

Really beautiful! She made love to him.

I personally hate BOHEME - can't stand Puccini's sentimentality - but this is a lovely soprano. I don't think this is the ideal role for her though. She has more power and substance than the fragile Mimi would have.

Bit too much scooping for me...
