Summary/Abstract: The interview with Anita Hartig aims to reveal the personality of the lyrical artist through a form of sharing the sensible, through the simple benchmarks of the world, art and life and the manner in which they are capitalized on the stage. Remembering the years growing up in Bistrita, the years spent as a student in Cluj and the leap to the big world of international lyrical stage has not changed her perception of her own personal values, but rather they build her character and lead to her artistic self. The meeting with Anita Hartig was occasioned by the premiere of Puccini’s La Bohème in Cluj, where the soprano played Mimi. The fragmented dialogue took place in unconventional places and situations (at the airport, in the car on the way to the hotel, in the backstage before the general rehearsal). The material formed the basis of a portrait documentary about Anita, broadcast by TVR.
