Gounod’s Faust - Act III (Teatro Regio Torino, 2015)
gounod’s faust but mephistopheles is a goose SOLELY so the “ha ha ha”s in “vous qui faites l’endormie” are rendered as “honk honk honk”
GOUNOD: FAUST at the Bavarian State Opera 16.02.2026
Conductor - Nathalie Stutzmann Faust - Jonathan Tetelman Mephistopheles - Kyle Ketelsen Marguerite - Olga Kulchynska
this is the most impulsive decision I've ever taken but I'M SEEING FAUST ON SATURDAY AT THE ROYAL OPERA OF VERSAILLES
Should Siébel (from Gounod's "Faust") be sung by:
A soprano (as originally written in the score)
A mezzo (common performance practice nowadays)
A tenor, like that one Chorégies d'Orange performance (why the fuck???)
Whichever/Raya, who the fuck is Siébel?/see results
Wondering, because my voice teacher gave me "Faites-lui mes aveux" to practice, and she says it suits my voice, in terms of range and tessitura (I'm a soprano, and I have also been practicing this insane piece at the same time; without the interpolated high F-sharp in this recording, obviously, but with a written high C-sharp).
I go to re-listen to Gounod's funeral march and, of course, he shows up

We’ve heard Yo-Yo Ma play the Bach C Prelude in ‘Nöel’ on The West Wing, here’s a very different version with Gounod’s ‘Ave Maria’ (not the Schubert, but still Noel-adjacent)
