“But when the spring time comes, the first rays of sunshine are mine.” How poetic and poignant!

One of my favorite Mimi's. I love her because she sounds like no one else. I believe that we love the greats because we love their imperfections. Yet, now we expect perfection. The occasional bark, the dark quality gives her character... I love it!!

No doubt this singing is superb but, just spare a moment and listern againn paying particular attention to that wonderful orchestra. She sings and the orchestra accompanies and answers her.That skill didn't just happen there's lierally hundreds of years of hard work and when yhey come together its beautiful...thanks poster.

Beautiful. Made me shed a tear. Wonderful.

That's how you sing this aria!!!! I have never heard a voice I prefer more as Mimi and I have listened to them all! The way she stays up there on the climax is just stunning.

Agree with others who say Freni - but this is what we always pray for on every soprano. Is she going to stay there long enough or just hit it a couple beats and slide off it. Angela one ups that - not only does she stay there sparkling she pulls off a wonderful decrescendo that speaks to the hopelessness that is Mimi.

WOW!! Awesome as Mimi! Beautiful voice and gesticulations. I would have loved to see her as Mimi w Pav. I really enjoyed D'Amico w Pav. Gorgeous music together...and the composition/orchestration of Le Boheme is beyond wonderful, esp here.

Best Mimi ever

Beautiful. Favorite song. Favorite singer. 🖤

Beautiful! My favorite aria in my favorite opera!

Just reminds me of 'good old times'... With that friend named Roger, who was and is an absolute expert in operas... Night-long conversations about the real confessions and possessions of love... (Time goes by, and so do I)

FOR ME THE BEST RENDITION EVER!

Un très bel enregistrement de la Bohème avec dans les rôles principaux la grande Angela Gheorghiu et Ramon Vargas, dans une somptueuse production de Franco Zeffirelli...En espérant toujours que la captation de ce magnifique spectacle soit transféré en Blu-ray!

An eternal favorite. God bless Puccini.

So Beautiful, so Warm, so Wonderful, so Sublime!!! I adore her, my sweet Angela! 🌸💜🤍🤍🤍

This always brings me to tears🥲👍

You know, in the book "Scenes de la Vie Boheme" by Henric Murger (sorry if I misspelled it), the first meeting between Rodolfo and Mimi is not mentioned at all and the way they meet each other in the opera is taken from another chapter that doesn't have to do with the two of them. And to be fair, in the book poor Rodolfo is crazy for Mimi but she keeps straying and also she's overly coquettish and dressy...but of course Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa had to adapt it so it could look like a beautiful love story. The way they've integrated elements from any chapter of the book, even if it is not about Rodolfo and Mimi, in the opera's plot is, I have to admit, extremely clever and it really shows that they've worked very hard and examined the book thoroughly....

Mimi? i don't know where is Mimi mi mi is very strong!! on the movie

MIMI À primeira vista sempre é o ápice do que aconteceu no 1º encontro dos amores, embora a relação ganhe mais Colorido no decorrer dos dias. Os mistérios fizeram-no, Ele, Rodolfo, a sentir-se atraído por Mimi, cada vez mais. Com a vela apagada e a chave de casa, Mimi pede ajuda A Rodolfo para acendê-la. Ao sair da casa dele, o vento Apaga as 2 velas, a de Rodolfo e a de Mimi, está muda, E ambos passam a procurar a chave na sala. É o advento Do romance de amor do casal iniciado à chama da lareira E do luar que penetra pela janela aberta. Quando as mãos Se encontram no chão, ela esquece que tem a cegueira. Nesse sublime enlevo surge Che gelida manina, bela ária Da ópera La Bohème, de Puccini, enternecendo corações, A vida do casal Mimi e Rodolfo passa a ser extraordinária.

Nope.

I like her but she is playing a Mimi that is too seductive and I don't think that really goes with the character. A woman who wonders at the sunrise and the flowers is a bit childlike, innocent and naive.

Yes, my thoughts too. " But after the thaw, the first sun of April is MINE" - Mimi is a wonderfully innocent young woman as written in the opera. You might try Nicole Car at the Royal Opera House. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lJqj3M6Bpb2qY8Y.html Or of course the ultimate modest Mimi, Mirella Freni.

It must be agonising for each soprano, however good they may be, always to be in the shadow of the one and only divina: la Callas.

Teatrica, eccessiva Mimi' e' una piccola modesta ricamatrice, non una farfallona

I agree. Opera is NOT musical theatre it’s refined emotion unless of course you are a character actor and meant to act a certain way like a grisette or in this case Musetta who would very much act this way because she’s a performer. Mimi is a seamstress. Quiet, reserved, to her self, incredibly inward, quiet and gentle. I sing these arias and I’m not some famous opera singer and even little old me figured out Mimi. It might not be her fault. She’s probably following directors telling her to think things that aren’t in the text. Tebaldi is Mimi. 😍

No substance in this voice. It's empty, it's all air (fiati). Voice must be full, rich of armonics, strong, stable, solid. Complete. This is wobbling, unbodied, unsure and unpleasant to listen to. This is to an educate ear of course.
