I’m with you on Mojca Erdmann. I always look forward to the forest bird scene in Siegfried but when she came on the in Met Machine production I wanted to turn off the cinema.
Maybe she’ll improve with time – anything’s possible, I guess. She was an adequate Blonde in one DVD of Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail that I’ve seen. Not very interesting, but accurate in terms of pitch and ok at acting. But as these things go, that isn’t much.
That DVD of Rusalka with Fleming is one of the most interesting Robert Carsen productions.

I’ve been stalking pieces of it on youtube – I really want to see the whole thing.

1. I love pie charts, and I particularly enjoy the ones you create!
2. I probably shouldn’t admit that I picked up a used copy of that Rusalka a while ago and still have not watched it.
3. Poor ME… Who DOES like her singing?

Some of the reviewers of her Mozart recital CD on Amazon seemed to love it – so there must be some fans of hers out there.
I am not one of them, though.
