Negative Positive
Title: very diappointing
Review: I'm afraid I must agree with the first reviewer about this production. Dimitra is a great diappointment. She has a strange hesitant approach to her scale singing; soft then strident and fadeing in and out. I found it most disturbing. Also disturbing was watching her as she juts out her jaw. In her long scene with husband Don Alfonso I found myself enjoying his singing and recoiled when she would start. I found Iori the be the best singer of the cast. I thought the sets and the production adequate and appropriate. The other singers were fine for this second circuit Italian house. I enjoyed the dances and the banqueting; though I would like to have seen the coffins in the final scene. It would have been a delicious touch. I'll file this DVD away and it will gather dust; my DVD with Sutherland and Kraus does not get dusty. Now there is a real singer!
