• Scotto- The Queen of the Night
  This production was filmed live at the met in 1977 and it's an affecting one.
  I had seen Renata Scotto perform as Musetta in another production with Carreras and that performance was quite memorable so i really looked forward to seeing her as Mimi.
  Scotto performs from the soul and from the heart and it's a very moving experience to hear and see her perform.
  Her singing is so poetic with such sensitive artful display of dynamics to convey the words she is singing.

• La Boheme
  A marvelous version of this great opera. The 'young' Pavoratti's voice simply soars. I saw the new Met version recently which was excellent, but no comparison in tenors. What a loss too soon when he died.

• Quintessential Pavarotti
  I purchased this DVD for my parents, avid opera fans. If you love a classic love story with the most melodic music and are new to opera this is the DVD to buy. As you probably are aware the movie "Rent" was loosely based on this opera. Although that can't hold a candle to the origianl. Pavarotti and Scotto are perfect together and production and set were top notch. If you've never seen or heard an opera before I highly recommend this as your first. It's timeless and worth seeing.

  As a lover of opera and Pavaraotti, I wanted this dvd very much. I was very pleased with the quality of it and look forward to viewing it again and again.
