 Rating:  - Bring back the1960'sWhere's Cecil Beaton when you need him. When you have the greatest singers of the last half of the 20th century, Nilsson and Corelli, you don't need all this excess!

The set was truly outstanding, the grandeur of the era was displayed. This performance is over 20 years old; Domingo was in his prime - a tenor hunk! But the magic, the chemistry between him and Marton was lacking. The one who stole the show was Liu - Leona Mitchell. A voice of an angel, innocent and full of emotion. The entire opera lacked believability. The story itself is unbelievable, ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
