    Lucia and Ophélie showcase her dramatic skills, Marie her comedic. Perhaps for both, as well as sheer virtuoso vocal technique, I'll go with Zerbinetta.

    In my experience, it's a coin toss between Otello and Cavaradossi!

    A Natalie Dessay Cavaradossi would be interesting indeed!

    He's my number one Canio, out of those you listed I'd choose Calaf (from recording with Mehta).

    No secret that I'm not a big Vickers fan, but he's tremendous as Peter Grimes (even though Britten himself didn't like the interpretation).

    Tristan? His recording with Karajan and Darnesch was my introdution to this work and I still adore it. He has such a dark, gloomy voice and some special force behind it which makes some of his notes so incredibly momentous. His Tristan really deserves his name.

    But shame on Schigolch for not putting Siegmund on the list, behold:

    This is pretty much the same for me.
