Lovely memento

"French-canadian Huguette Tourangeau was for many somewhat of

an acquired taste - she had a voice of great range and consi-

derable agility and a highly individual timbre - she could at

time sound like a true soprano and at others a true mezzo -

and a rather daring disposition with the way she used her

voice - the selection is very interesting and the 1971 recor-

ding still sounds very good - the only snag as pointed by the

other reviewer the program is indeed short and the reproduction

of the original notes are totally unreadable."
