highly recommended

The definitive Traviata production

You won't find a better one. Not just a filming of a stage production but a sumptuous movie rendition. Incredible staging and lighting with terrific casting. Domingo in his prime, and Stratas is one of the leading singing actresses of her generation.

Only minor downside is the subtitles include the hearing impaired queues, but if/once you know the story, just turn them off.

OPera at its best

This film of one of the best loved operas is brilliant both in performance and setting. Even someone who does not attend the opera cannot fail to enjoy and be moved by this production.

Stratas/Domingo La Traviata

Saw it years ago when it first came out and it seems to have improved over time....as for Stratas:
'Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety'

Libiamo! Godiamo!

Drink and be happy with this luscious and moving rendition of this opera classic. Gloriously rich colors are thoughtfully used in concert with the music and plot. The production design makes you feel what it must have been like to live the life of the truly wealthy Parisians of the time. This is NOT a filmed version of a staged opera (which usually are only useful for archival purposes) but, truly a movie.

wonderful production

Verdi - La Traviata / Levine, Stratas, DomingoI saw this production in 1986 and I was so impressed with this performance that I always want to have this particular version of la Traviata. I saw this DVD when I received this one a couple of weeks ago and my opinion didn't change.
