Faust Fun

Just a quick bit of fun. Having recently seen the opera Faust at The Royal Opera House and again (same production) in cinema, and with the Met Opera production due to be screened live in HD next month starring Jonas Kaufmann, was just thinking today who would feature in the perfectly cast production. For me, at the moment, I thiiiiink (lol) .....
  

       Faust = Jonas Kaufmann - Vittorio Griggolo was
       lovely but think Jonas may be even better

       Valentin=Dmitri Hvorostovsky, well you just have to
       put Dmitri into any Baritone role, there really is
       no-one else who shines like Dmitri and he was
       incredible in the ROH production

       Mephistopholes=Bryn Terfel/Rene Pape-this is much more difficult deciding between
       these Rene Pape was fabulous but I am sure Bryn would be also

    
       Marguerite=Now here I am a little lost, for although Angela G did a good performance
       but I am sure there must be someone out there better suited for this role (and eeekk,
       that hideous blonde wig she wore) ...... will have to ponder some more on who can
       fill the soprano role ....... OK, no more pondering, having seen The Met Opera
       production with Marina Poplavskaya I am now convinced she would be the best in
       this role
