I first heard this voice on my Ariodante, & absolutely loved her as
Polinesso.  However one night I happened upon a concert of hers on TV.  The
voice didn't sound quite as good as it does on the CD.  I still watched.  
However when she sang this coloratura aria from Gluks Orfeo (sorry, don't
know the French spelling), she started moving her head & neck back & forth to
mark the runs; not only that, but she also semi conducted with one of her
hands.  It was very distracting.
