Negative Positive
Title: Lovely production
Review: This video of La Boheme presents the performance given by Pavarotti and the Genoa opera in Beijing in the 1980s, during Pavarotti's visit to China. The sets are great, the ensemble singing is wonderful, and Fiamma Izzo D'Amico as Mimi and Madelyn Renee as Musetta as especially fine. The only jarring moment was the audience applause that broke into "Che Gelida Manina" as Pavarotti hit the high notes in the aria. This video is a welcome alternative to the San Francisco Opera Boheme with Pavarotti and Mirella Freni, and if Pavarotti is your preferred Rodofo, it's a treasure and a must.
