LISTENERS' BOX
April 27, 2004

Olivia Stapp is out of her mind to put Voigt's name on the same page with Callas's and Flagstad's. Voigt is an excellent singer with a good voice, but nowhere on the level of those two other singers, in either the Kunst or the Stimme categories.
Her Sieglinde at the Met was good, but not even, when compared with Norman or Rysanek, not to mention Flagstad. Gimme a break!
