This was my 1st jump into blu ray opera. I am glad I took the leap. It is like sitting on the 1st row...all the facial expressions including the sweat are right there to see. The singing is very good and for once,Musetta actually looks like Musetta should. A lot cheaper than going to La Scala or the Met.

This otherwise excellent production was annoyingly flawed by out of balance sound. The orchestra would often drown out the singing. I like to listen with the sound a bit loud. If I set the sound volume to get the singing where I wanted it at a loud part, the orchestra would at times be deafeningly loud and force the turning down of the volume. So I was forced to watch the performance with the sound turned down so far that the singing seemed like it was recorded with the microphone too far away from ... Read More

I was very impressed by this version. From the first minutes you understand that new era of high quality video has already become. The image is so three-D-mentional that it's even hard to see something similar in our every-day reality. Modern HD-cameras create the effect of physical presence in the scene.

Take into mind that creators of this ... Read More

A technical note. The on-screen menu lacks the customary "setup" choice that makes it easy to select subtitles and audio choices. However, if you start the opera, the subtitle and audio menus, including DTS HD, can be reached from the remote control of the blu-ray player.
The three leads Gheorghiu, Vargas, and Frontali give brilliant performances and 1080p combined with DTS HD gives the viewer a near-perfect sense of seeing the real opera from the best seat in the house.

I used to have the DVD of Decca version of La Traviata featuring Angela Gheorghiu. I liked it but this blu-ray provides a whole new experience with its great high definition vision and audio. Ms. Gheorghiu, as Violetta, performs amazingly in both singing and acting. It's great to observe all the details of the singer's facial expressions and gestures in hi-def. Mr. Vargas, as Alfredo, performs very well even though his acting is rather clumsy. The baritone, as the father, sings flawlessly. I thought ... Read More
