The Metropolitan Opera, November 7, 2009. The Russian soprano Marina Poplavskaya as Liu, Andris Nelsons, conductor. (And yes, that's Sam Ramey standing behind the soprano.)
Marina Poplavskaya was the true star of this production; the simple beauty of her voice completely overshadowed the heavy and labored tone of Maria Guleghina in the title role.
Thank god for her or I would have run screaming from the ghastly Turandot who never sang a single note in tune.
