Description
Review
Top 2008 Classics List: Possibly the world doesn't need a new go-around of Puccini's eye-moistener, but this one really gets to you, a performance of cinematic realism in Madrid's Teatro Real staged by Giancarlo del Monaco, led by Jesus Lopez-Cobos. Inva Mula and Aquiles Machado are the lovers, and the surround miking sets their tragedy up close and personal; resistance is futile. -- Bloomberg.com, Alan Rich, December 2008

Visually, the high-definition picture communicates the highly contrasted lighting of the production. The cold light of act I really does feel like late afternoon on December 24th. The sets are extravagantly decorated, and there's more stage business than you can possibly take in the first time around--jugglers and acrobats at the Café Momus--yet the design doesn't seem bloated or ostentatious, as some of Franco Zeffirelli's Met productions can. . .For the opera videophile who has taken the plunge with Blu-ray, this release is an obvious early acquisition. -- Fanfare Magazine, Andrew Quint, January/February 2009
