I was thinking as much of the other singers, as of Callas. Probably will
use her recordings. But I also imagine there may be scenes in which she is
either studying with her voice teacher or coach, rehearsing or just
vocalising - and I suspect they may have someone dub such scenes. Or
perhaps they won't include such scenes at all? Were the director other
than Zefirelli, I could imagine them simply focusing on her private life,
and not on her onstage career - but I can't believe Zef wouldn't focus
mainly, if not entirely, on Callas the PERFORMER, and all that that
entailed.
