I have to say...I am actually really impressed! Studer really handles this difficult aria beautifully! She even “plays with her food” a bit and indulges in some wonderful rubati-she isn’t just trying to get it over with like most sopranos. I also don’t feel like she is just surviving this like most sopranos-she’s thriving. I have always thought of her instrument as more lyrical...but it was obviously capable of a little spingere too...good for her. I mean this is live! No messing with knobs and dials and microphones and other shenanigans...Brava Mme. Studer!
era anche più giovane di Saioa Hernandez, la quale ha comunque debuttato nel ruolo, non so se lei avesse precedenti esperienze nl ruolo. In seguito la Studer si è dedicata specialmente al repertorio tedesco
