Summary: Cav trumps Pag
Comment: This is a wonderfully atmospheric production and Pretre conducts with high insight. Although there may be better-sung Santuzzas, Obraztsova fully conveys Santuzza's desperation. The confrontation scene between her and Turiddu crackles with energy.

Summary: Leoncavallo - I Pagliacci
Comment: Leoncavallo-I Pagliacci is an excellent video product. I strongly recommend this video to all opera lovers. Even if you are not an opera lover, I believe you will like this video. It is great.

Summary: Top Pagliacci
Comment: Leoncavallo's Pagliacci is one of the verismo cornerstones of the Italian repertory. This performance does justice to the hot-blooded score with magnificent singing by tenor, Placido Domingo and Teresa Stratas. Conductor Georges Pretre, not usually associated with this repertoire, yet, he squeezes every white-hot passion out of this smoldering score. Add the magnificent production by Franco Zeffirelli, and you have all you need for one of the most exciting opera productions committed onto DVD. I saw this production at the Met years ago; I was elated when Deutsche Grammophon issued it.

Summary: Wonderful
Comment: I rented this opera and loved it so much that had to purchase it. The singing and acting is wonderful and I wasn't that familar with this opera before I saw it, but have watched it three times since. The music is haunting. Absolutly loved it.

Summary: Get it just for the Pagliacci - you won't be disappointed!
Comment: There are some people who won't even give Cav a chance (the second opera on the dvd), but I watched it. Now I don't blame anyone for not watching it. Now I only watch the second part of the dvd with I Pagliacci, because it is PHENOMENAL. I wish the staging would have been a little better (more believable when they are at their camp) but that blanches in comparison to the acting. Domingo is a little past his prime here, but his voice does not suffer. He plays this character with a brutal realism that makes you fear him but pity him at the same time. Of course, the famous aria "Laugh, Clown" is absolutely heart-wrenching and beautifully sung. I found myself just going back to listen/watch the aria for the emotions on Domingo's face. It's always nice to find great opera singers also be amazing actors and actresses, and Domingo does not disappoint. Get this for the amazing Pagliacci (it's not even that long, so thoroughly enjoyable for opera fanatics and those who are just getting into it) and have a dvd that you will enjoy in your library for years and years.
