[edit] Speedy Delete
I disagree on speedy deletion. The original opening entry said details to follow. That line was removed when the empty tag was added. Vivaverdi seems to have contributed to some other opera articles. Maybe communicate on User talk:Vivaverdi that more content needs to come sooner than later, and tag this as a stub? --Elliskev 20:34, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] More Data
Two important Collier credits should be included. One: she took one of the leads in the world premiere production of Martin David Levy's opera Mourning Becomes Electra at the Metropolitan Opera in the 1960s, an extremely important assignment. (I think she played the Klytemnestra role, Christine Mannon.) Two: she sang Chrysothemis, Klytemnestra's daughter, in the Birgit Nilsson recording of Richard Strauss' opera Elektra, generally held to be the best recording of the work. As the two different credits relate to the same source (i.e., Aeschylus' Oresteia), it seems to me that the entry could be made more interesting even as it contains data more central to Collier's memory than much of what has been posted.
