She is also fantastic with Schubert Lieder. Pentatone is releasing this as an RQR SACD. I heard from reliable source that she's not a very nice in person. Caballe, on the other hand, is great and charming in public. Only wishing she's in better health though. Flew to NY over Memorial Day week-end to attend her concert only to find out she had to cancel last minute due to illness. Arrrgh...

I now find her a little annoying. My current favourite is the gifted Korean soprano, Sumi Jo.
