@cacancellara Along with Fleming & Millo... the best we have had in 25 years. They sing very little sacred music! Such a pity! I suppose there is only so much one can fit in one lifetime...

@arisargiris who is WE? I have bought this DVD la Rondine and this guy is a tremendous tenor. I don't understand why Angela Gheorghiu did not choose Brenciu over this tenor wanabe Kaufmann?

Angela Gheorghiu is simply... gorgeous!!!! Great figure and singing here!!

[arisargiris]

Marius is a great singer and a pleasure to work with him.

We r doing now Boheme in Brussels and he is doing a beautiful Rodolfo!!! It will be great fun!!! Viva Puccini!

I usually dislike Gheorghiu, but I'm prepared to cut her some slack here, given her illness. And she actually does pretty well by this aria; it's better than her "Ore dolce e divine," I think. Still, Brenciu steals the show - he's brilliant!

Two great Romanian artists! So proud to be Romanian!

Many thanks for sharing this. I am a great fan of Puccini who had never heard this score before I caught this performance on the radio on one of the Met's free weekly broadcasts. I fell in love with it, and with her!
