TURANDOT Riddle & Liu's Death - Maria Guleghina - Marcello Giordani - Marina Poplavskaya

Most of Act 2 from the Riddle Scene to Liu's Death. Zeffirelli's glittering production of Puccini's Turandot, with Maria Guleghina in the title role and Marcello Giordani as Calàf Great Performances at the Met. Marina Poplavskaya sings Liù, Samuel Ramey is Timur, and conductor Andris Nelsons makes his Great Performances at the Met debut. With its grand, dazzling sets, the production by Franco Zeffirelli has been an audience favorite since its premiere at the Metropolitan Opera in 1987 and the New York Times has called this Turandot "the Met at its best." Repeat performance February 4, 2010.

I saw this live on November 3, 2009. It was fantastic. I was so happy to see Samuel Ramey on stage live. Absolutely stunning sets.
