• Comment. I have expanded, updated, and re-referenced the article with reviews of her performances. However, this is a rather borderline case. Normally, for opera singers we consider two or more performances in major roles with leading opera companies to be sufficient. But in this case, she has smaller roles with a leading company (
  Glyndebourne Festival. She appears to be no longer very active as an opera singer. I cannot find any performances since about 2013.

• Keep I added three recordings with notable orchestras and conductors. One is of the rare opera
  The Proms, the third, I quatro rusteghi was the critic's choice in Opera News. For me, that tips the scale in favor of keeping. --OrestesLebt (talk) 13:07, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply

• Keep. Thanks for that OrestesLebt, plus your addition of the performance as Konstanze with the Brazilian Symphony Orchestra. I've added a 4th recording, the DVD of The Marriage of Figaro at the ROH (Critics' Choice at Gramophone). That's enough to tip the scale. Voceditenore (talk) 17:08, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
