French soprano Natalie Dessay, not only a dazzling singer but also a gifted actress, effortlessly sweeps her castmates along in this turbulent buffo delight of an opera. “She laughed, mugged, cried and danced through her part … And she sang. Oh, how she sang”, gushed George Jahn (Associated Press). Her partner is Juan Diego Flórez, one of the leading young tenors of his time. Clad in lederhosen, he cheerfully seduces Marie – and the audience – with his voice and his looks.
