I want to sincerely thank you for making these complete Operas available to everyone. There are so many of us that would otherwise have no opportunity to see these wonderful productions. I can’t say enough. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You !

MAGNIFICO PLACIDO DOMINGO, PERO EL MEJOR JOHNSON HA SIDO MARIO DEL MONACO, SU INTERPRETACIÓN EN EL MAGGIO MUSICALE FIORENTINO, CON ELINOR STEVENS, Y DIRIGIENDO EL GRANDÍSIMO MITROPOULOS, ES DE ESCALOFRIOS, ES LO MEJOR EN FRANCIULLAS QUE SE PUEDE ESCUCHAR,

@TheVaughan5 Santi might not be as sexy as Mehta but he certainly did a perfectly idiomatic piece of conducting (and without using a score),compared with Mehta who according to Domingo sightread both the performances and the recording on DGG!

@callasnuts - llevas razón un error por mi parte,  gracias.

@Maripudelmonaco Quieres decir Eleanor Steber,no?

The story is a bit weak, Carol Neblett's acting somewhat hammy but Fanciulla contains some of Puccini's finest music. I saw this cast conducted by Zubin Mehta who did a better job than Santi, it was a stunning production designed by Ken Adam.
