<< As for Bartoli, I have the opposite reaction to her. I never find her
technique to be distracting, and I find her soulfulness so complete, that it

disc; one of a very select few classical desert island CDs for me), on track
4 in the recit, her emotion is so out there that her voice has distortion
and
grit similar to what one hears only rock or pop recordings. >>
I only have her early CDs. I'll have to check out the later ones. I may
have spoken a little too strongly -- while I admire the early CDs, I'm not
that moved by her. But then again, she was quite young when she made the
early CDs and perhaps the emotion that I felt was superficial then is there
now and is real.
