Monique Baudouin
Sophie in Massenet’s “Werther”, Tehran Opera House, April 1977
Monique Baudouin, a French opera singer appeared in Tehran as Sophie, a tearful fifteen year old Charlotte’s sister who was also in love with Werther. With her crystalline soprano she brought to the Sophie character sweetness, charm and ardour, especially in the cheering up aria: “Du gai soleil, plein de flamme”.
Currently, she is the manager of Monique Baudouin Opéra-Agence Artistique in Paris, France. Her discography includes: Cherubini’s “Anacréon” in the role of Athanais under Eliahu Inbal (1971) and Massenet’s “Don Quichotte” under Georges Prêtre in the role of Pedro (1982).
