Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - DIVA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Seeing is Believing
What can I say? Natalie Dessay, her superb voice notwithstanding, must be seen as well as heard. This compilation beautifully documents her first ten years on the stage, and is an excellent introduction to her considerable talents. The only, even remote problem with the DVD is that the scenes are in no discernable order--I'd have preferred them to be chronological.

Her early performances (tracks 1,5,7,9) are excellent, restrained but not stiff. She really hits her stride in the mid ... Read More
