| 1974-Leontyne Price sang with a wealth of creamy, smoothly-floated tone, great style, and a lot of vibrance and passion. |

| 2006-Mattila effectively captured this character’s ascent from an innocent on her way to a convent (with airy charm in her voice), to the young girl as a kept woman (the voice full of whimsical change), to her fall and arrest as a prostitute (with much vocal pleading), and finally to her desolate death in the New World (the voice now resigned and devoid of color)./ Review |

| 1983-Mirella Freni/ Watch video of last scene. "Many thanks for this video. I am a big fan of Peter Dvorsky and Mirela Freni as well. What is it for a recording?" "Grandissimi!!!! Divina la Freni!" "Bravo! Bravo! What intense and heart-breaking singing and acting! Great!" - You Tube |
