 Rating:  - I bought 4 of these, so not sure which one this is.If this is the Decca CD. Look else where. After trying 3 of them, having the same problem with Act 2. I finally just bought a VHS tape, which works and sounds great. Rating:  - Thrilled to get this!I was thrilled to be able to view this opera on DVD. I have been a fan of the Met since the early 70's when I used to listen to the Saturday afternoon live performances. I was very blessed to be able to attend live performances in New York in the mid-70's, and once I attended a performance of the Met on tour in DC when I lived there. I love all of these singers. By watching it, I felt like I had gone home to my younger self and to a simpler time, when a hotel room right across the street from the Met could be had for $25 a night! and a ticket to the opera cost $7!! Granted it was the last balcony, but that's ok, it was closer to Heaven up there! and the golden voices filled the whole theater even if the people on the stage looked ...

But I was disappointed as I received a defective DVD. I returned it and the replacement had the same defect. It would not play after the first act. Amazon has been very decent about it but I am disappointment as I had to ask for a refund. Has anyone else had this problem? I am going to wait a while and then try again.Verdi: Ernani (1983) Rating: - Subtle it ain't; Superb it is!I just love early Verdi. It's the raw energy he posseses. And it is above all found in Ernani which I have always loved - looking back to the records of Bergonzi, Price and Shippers. But this MET version is superb. Pav is still a singer rather than a fat ego. I've always loved Mitchell. then there are Milnes and Raimondi in their prime. Lots of high notes all around esp from Pav and Leona. And the young Levine was very good with early Verdi. Some called him brash but that's what Verdi needs here. Bernard Shaw wrote, "this is the most intense ensemble opera written before Trovatore." And Trovatore was the last of these raw energy operas. Verdi may have matured, and honed his craft in excelsis but I shall always cherish these raw stand and deliver ... Read More: Rating: - ErnaniThis rarely-performed Verdi's earlier opera contains some very nice music. Although Pavarotti and Mitchell seem very good in the performance, I still prefer Domingo and Freni from La Scala performance. Overall, this is a good addition to your opera DVD collection anyhow. |
