[edit] Natalie Dessay article

It's good to see that you are expanding it from the French article. However, a comment needs to be inserted in the TALK PAGE rather than in the body of the article itself.

Someone had already deleted your comment. I moved it to the Talk page. Vivaverdi 20:39, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. Keep up the good work. I'll take a look and see if I fill in some dates, etc. by checking my refs. on Dessay (wo is here in Santa Fe right now singing "Pamina" in Magic Flute. Vivaverdi 22:11, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I've been looking at the French version and doing some "translation" myself (at least, I get the gist of it, I hope...). However, 2 things puzzle me:

• "Dessay was encouraged to study voice when someone heard her sing Pamina's aria in a production of Moliere's L'amour peintre"

What does this mean??

• Where did you find out that Dessay will sing in La traviata in Santa Fe in '09???

Thanks for the response on my talk page. Anything more you can add to the English article would be appreciated. I did have to remove some unsubstantiated comments without any supporting "evidence". Vivaverdi 00:38, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
