She is big in stature, big in status and has a stonkingly big voice to match.
Lincolnshire-lass Jane Eaglen is La Vestale in Spontini's opera, performed by the English National Opera for the first time in this country since 1842.
It's the story of a vestal virgin who is illicitly in love with a Roman general.
Sentenced to death by being buried alive, the gods and goddesses take pity on her and she is saved.
The score can be cruelly high for any singer but Ms Eaglen shows no fear of the top notes.
Her voice soars out over the chorus and the orchestra to raise the hairs on your neck.
