Interesting that you mention both Migenes and Diener here, since Julia Migenes sang Diener's signature roles of Lalume and Aldonza on studio cast recordings of KISMET (with Samuel Ramey) and MAN OF LA MANCHA (with Placido Domingo).
The cast of the classic 1956 Beecham BOHEME that you mention also included Lucine Amara as Musetta. Her last role, and the only musical theatre credit of hers that I know of, was Heidi in the Encores! FOLLIES. I recently learned that she passed away earlier this month, age 99. A great artist with a long and distinguished list of roles and performances at the Met. |
