But this assertion is doubted by “Libération”. Submitted to the analysis of various experts surveyed by the newspaper, the audio track of L’Hymne à l’amour version Celine Dion would have been adjusted in post-production. In other words, playback without a shadow of a doubt » according to these specialists. “ It’s impossible that what we hear is live », says one of them.

« Gestures, levels, accuracy, compression… What I hear and what I see: it’s playback », specifies this sound engineer who has already worked with Céline Dion.
