Title: Roberto's voice is too hard
Product review: Excellent performances by Dulcamara and Belcore. Nemorino just wasn't melodious enough for me. This production was in 1996 and Roberto has certainly improved since. As for Adina I do not think she was coquettish enough. For some strange reason the scene was updated to the 1920s; why this when the original was quite ok?I have the Pavarotti version on VHS, which is now coming out on DVD. I much more prefer his Una Furtiva Lagrima than Roberto's. Likewise I think Judith Blegen provides a better performance than Angela. But Dulcamara and Belocre are much better in this version. In my opinion both version are worth buying.
