You won't find a better tenor in the world. No doubt about it.

Nothing better… ever… anywhere… the greatest Sutherland and her occasional partner Luciano

The section of the rehearsal process is a wonderful insight to this event.

I'm not too familiar with Bonynge's conducting style, but I found it overly fast here. Luciano was in super vocal form, but most of his arias were rushed. Had this been from 2,000, I might have attributed that to his decreasing attention to the musical line and its intricacies in his later globe-trotting years, but in 1979 he was still in his more humble natural nature and he sang with great style and emotion, so I would have to assume it was Bonynge who was rushing him.
