Review title: Italian at its best
Product review: Donizetti's L'Elisir d'Amore is a wonderful opera. Light, entertaining and distracting us from all evil things going on in the world. But also reminding us how easily we all are fooled by these charlatans who know the art of changing our hopes into money in their own pockets. The performance claims for both singing and acting and the winner is Mr Battle who is absolutely outstanding as the convincing seller of the functional food of the time, l'elisir d'amore - the love-potion. Miss Battle is also very good with a wonderful, sensitive voice. Of course, Pavarotti is the great tenor but here also confirming his often less successful talent as an actor. Unfortunately his voice can't always compensate his woody performance and (too) impressive body - reducing the rating from 5 stars to 4. Maestro Levine is the ideal conductor to keep it all together with both humour and discipline.
