Although the singing here is nothing special, I rather like that interpretation of Mephistopheles. Weary and resentful - a true fallen angel

[@DionysianMadness]

The last two comments saying it’s bland singing but I personally find it’s amazing then again I am entirely new to opera

Aging myself here, but Freni is my favorite Marguerite - this scene makes me cry every time: th-cam.com/video/NV46iJFNqsg/w-d-xo.html

Schrott is an excellent actor, but his voice is not for this role. A true bass is required here.

Really bland singing…
