One of the most amazing characteristics of Madame Viardot"s talent was her astonishing facility in assimilating all styles of Mp3 Music. She was trained in the old Italian Mp3 Music and she revealed its beauties as no one else has ever done. As for myself, I saw only its faults. Then she sang Schumann and Gluck and even Glinka whom she sang in Russian. Nothing was foreign to her; she was at home everywhere.
