Thaïs – Dis-moi que je suis belle

“Dis-moi que je suis belle” from Massenet’s Thaïs, spoken in French — 3 minutes.

Spoken slowly by an opera singer whose mother tongue is the language of the score, one line at a time, with the phonetic transcription underneath. Slow a phrase without changing its pitch, loop the line that will not sit, and read along as the voice moves.
