Barstow was sensational! Amazing in this role, even more amazing that this role did not burn out her relatively small voice.......she is still singing now in 2011! Saw her in many roles, for me, she was the Callas of the 1970-1990s.

  Sure I saw this performance in 1988. To me, Plowright;s voice was too heavy for Mozart, even Donna Anna, and her technique in this performance was not perfect. But.she was thriling! The most exciting voice!

  Amazing! Saw this wonderful opera 3 times at ENO (London) 30 years ago......and once about 12 years ago with Scottish Opera. OK..NOT a masterpiece......but delicious melodies.........despite the crazy story. Saw Dalibor's dungeon in Prague also.
