in a masterly way completely scathing and full of venom. To me it seems that this (important) reviewer still hasn't been able to "forgive" Cecilia her deviating the "set" path in 1998 during the performances of "Le nozze di Figaro" (when she performed also the alternative arias and created an enormous scandal with it) and her still deviating course today, in fact accusing her of a kind of "cowardice". "When opera was forced under the radar". (NY Times) http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/21/arts/music/21ceci.html Then there is an article in the New York Sun of which can be read only 2 alineas (can someone provide the whole text?) "The Queen of excess". http://www.nysun.com/article/21852 And another article in the NYTimes which in fact is an article from the "San Francisco Chronicle". (Oct.20) "Bartoli again makes foray into rare music". http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2005/10/20/entertainment/e120526D63.DTL&hw=opera&sn=002&sc=480
