Jeanne Laisné (soprano)[edit]

~~... that Jeanne Laisné created the part of Aurore in Massenet's Le portrait de Manon, a sequel to his earlier Manon?~~ Source: https://www.artlyriquefr.fr/oeuvres/Portrait%20de%20Manon.html (see table for her creating the role, that it's a sequel is kind of the point, but., for example, the first review quoted there discusses the genesis from the earlier work, and if you want more explicit, "Le livret de M. Georges Boyer est par lui-même très séduisant. Il a pour héros le des Grieux de Manon...". from another of the reviews quoted. )

We found, Adam, that we can't expect DYK readers to imagine what "create a role" means, also yes, "role" better than "part", and isn't a sequel always to somthing earlier? So here you go:

Jeanne Laisné as Aurore

ALT2: ... that Jeanne Laisné appeared as Aurore (pictured) in the world premiere of Massenet's Le portrait de Manon, a sequel to his Manon?

Detailed bio, meticulously sourced, no copyvio obvious. Please add the image here, it's the right role even! - I changed some formatting (and Carmen), and wonder about the many times the opera house is mentioned, always with a link, in the repertoire. Perhaps think about that. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:28, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: I've added the image. Can you recheck it? Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.6% of all FPs} 12:47, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Sure, lovely image, licenced and the perfect illustration. I moved it to the hook in standard size, moved the clause, and expanded the caption. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:23, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
