Why are so many of us fascinated by the human voice? Listen to this number, and you will simply have the answer...ENJOY!
élie Falcon(28 January 1812- 25 February 1897)was a French operatic singer. She had a dramatic soprano voice which reached into the mezzo-soprano range and gave her name to a type of dark soprano voice. Her career was remarkably short, only six years, and she is widely used as an example of the sin
ger who pushes her voice beyond its prudent capacity and thus destroys it. She created the roles of Rachel in Halévy's La Juive and of Valentine in Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots.
ütz, was dramatic sopranos in the early 19th century. But, many things has changed since that. The tessitura for these roles are much lower than later examples of dramatic sopranoroles. Even the range is smaller.
´s why I believe she is more mezzo than a soprano. 100 years ago she had been a soprano without discussion, but times are changing.
