I'll never forgive the camera director for that sudden zoom in for this performance. This was one of the greatest Live performances Price did of the work.

[@baritoneblazzin1965]

Yes, it adds an alluring effect to the dramatic beginning.

Fifteen minutes of glorious singing.

My favorite soprano, the ultimate artist singing the Final scene from my favorite Opera

[@carlfigueiredo2095]

Thank you for bringing back this wonderful video. I've missed it and Price's powerfully. dramatic performance of this great work. She brings out the tension-ridden psycho-drama, particularly of the last 5 minutes, brilliantly, with Mehta and his orchestra completely 'on fire' too! Grateful thanks again!
