beautiful in a silly production. I think jurinac was always underestimated

Làstima por el idioma, pero fuera de ese detalle...(mm) en general ella esta grandiosa y que gran actriz es!

Y está ópera tiene uno de los finales más bellos, la música es sublime, bellisima, en fin muchisimas conotaciones.

I think what makes this work so well is her face--so openly emotional--sad, anguished, and tender. The slight puffiness of her cheeks makes her convincingly childlike, which a good Angelica should suggest. And yet she never overdoes it either. It's quite believable that this hopelessly trusting person could be the victim of others' cruelty. It would be better without the cheesy 1950s ending and that angelic choir. Puccini gilded the lily here, I think.

I am a great admirerer of Sena.

nunca imagine que las operas del maestro se habian llegado a traducir a otro idioma que no fuera el italiano en este caso sino me equivoco el aleman pero esto solo demuestra la grandeza de la Musica del maestro Puccini y lo universal de su obra
