Thanks for posting this. Recall all her extraordinary work at the Met during her reign. There was always great excitement and anticipation for each role and we were all the beneficiaries of her artistry.

This interview was a wonderful treat. Renata was one of my favorite singers. A true jewel in the world of opera. The story about Renata and Jan Pierce was beautiful.

Thank you so much for this! I was so lucky to have been able to watch Claudia and Renata from the wings...💕
