Summary: Ignore the production and listen to the music ... Content: I can't in good conscience give a 5 star review to an opera staged for film ... that said, the music is Wagner and wonderful. A wonderfully dark story highlighted by brilliant music. ... → Click here to read more reviews.

82.		Offenbach - La Grande-Duchesse de Gerolstein / Lott, Piau, Beuron, Le Roux, Les Musiciens du Louvre, Minkowski (Theatre du Chatelet) Manufacturer: Virgin Classics (EMI Music) Starring: Felicity Lott, Sandrine Piau, Yann Beuron, François Le Roux, Marc Minkowski Directed By: Laurent Pelly, François Roussillon	List Price: $37.98 Our Price: $22.97 You Save: $ 15.01 (40%) Prices subject to change
Summary: An Adequate Grande Duchesse Content: Because I had enjoyed La Belle Helene so much and because I had the French CD version of Duchesse (with Crespin) I felt this had to be a winner. Many years ago I saw an English language version; surprisingly I found I enjoyed it immensely even though French ... → Click here to read more reviews.

83.		Bizet - Carmen Ballet / Mikhail Baryshnikov, Zizi Jeanmarie Manufacturer: Kultur Video Starring: Roland Petit, Zizi Jeanmarie, Mikhail Baryshnikov	List Price: $19.99 Our Price: $7.98 You Save: $ 12.01 (60%) Prices subject to change
Summary: Anything with Baryshnikov Content: I consider Barishnikov the greatest male dancer of our time and there is unfortunately very little by him available so I will get anything with his name on it. This is from his early days in the US but he is marvellous - graceful and masculine at the same ... → Click here to read more reviews.

84.		Puccini - Gianni Schicchi / Corbelli, Palmer, Giordano, Matthews, McLaughlin, Jurowski, Glyndebourne Opera Manufacturer: BBC / Opus Arte Starring: Massimo Giordano, Felicity Palmer, Alessandro Corbelli, Vladimir Jurowski, Marie McLaughlin	List Price: $24.99 Our Price: $18.20 You Save: $ 6.79 (27%) Prices subject to change
Summary: Absolute must-have Content: This is a truly brilliant production of Puccini's comic masterpiece. Although this one-acter, the third in Puccini's "Il Trittico" (trilogy) of one-act operas dealing with the subject of death, is less than an hour long, it packs a more than satisfying punch ... → Click here to read more reviews.

85.		Mussorgsky - Boris Godunov Manufacturer: Philips Starring: Robert Lloyd, Olga Borodina, Alexei Steblianko, Sergei Leiferkus Directed By: Andrei Tarkovsky, Valery Gergiev	List Price: $39.98 Our Price: $25.98 You Save: $ 14.00 (35%) Prices subject to change
Summary: The best Boris Godunov Opera ever filmed!? Content: Reviewing my comments and those written by others about this extaordinary opera, I do not think I can better what has been written in THE GRAMOPHONE magazine, "This is masterly on almost every count, musical and visual, and would now be the outright ... → Click here to read more reviews.

86.		Mozart - Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute) Manufacturer: Deutsche Grammophon Starring: Matti Salminen, Julia Kleiter, Christoph Strehl, Ruben Drole, Eva Liebau Directed By: Martin Kusej, Nikolaus Harnoncourt	List Price: $39.98 Our Price: $26.95 You Save: $ 13.03 (33%) Prices subject to change
Summary: Odd, very odd Content: The singing is splendid. Rubin Drole as Papagano is a new and wonderful discovery in the opera universe. The entire set is a dull gray "labryinth". OK, that symbolism is understandable, but would reviewers giving this recording 5 stars please explain why ... → Click here to read more reviews.

87.		Rossini - L'Italiana in Algeri Manufacturer: Deutsche Grammophon Starring: Marilyn Horne, Paolo Montarsolo, Allan Monk, Douglas Ahlstedt, James Levine Directed By: Jean-Pierre Ponnelle	List Price: $39.98 Our Price: $27.96 You Save: $ 12.02 (30%) Prices subject to change
Summary: Oh Shame! Such Scurrilous Stereotyping! Content: Rossini's "Italian Girl in Algeria," which premiered in Venice in 1813, is simply a shocking vestige of unenlightended ethno-religio-political denigration of our fellow monotheists, the Mahometans of the 'corsair' states of North Africa, the descendents of ... → Click here to read more reviews.

88.		Verdi - Il Trovatore / Cura, Hovorostovsky, Villarroel, Naef, Rizzi, Covent Garden Manufacturer: BBC / Opus Arte Starring: José Cura, Dmitri Hvorostovsky	List Price: $29.99 Our Price: $19.96 You Save: $ 10.03 (33%) Prices subject to change
Summary: Powerful! Content: Although I am not fond of opera, I enjoy so much seeing Dmitri Hvorostovsky perform - not just the incredible range of his voice, but his superb singing and acting abilities. His face and body are so expressive of the emotions to be projected during a scene. ... → Click here to read more reviews.

89.		Verdi - Aida Manufacturer: Tdk DVD Video Starring: Kate Aldrich, Scott Piper, Adina Aaron, Massimiliano Stefanelli, Paolo Pecchioli	List Price: $24.99 Our Price: $19.37 You Save: $ 5.62 (22%) Prices subject to change
Summary: A special gift: Franco Zeffirelli directing Grand Opera in an intimate setting Content: To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Giuseppe Verdi's death, Franco Zeffirelli organized this performance of "Aida" as a workshop for young performers. The opera is staged in Verdi's hometown of Busetto at the small 350 seat Teatro Giuseppe Verdi. This ... → Click here to read more reviews.

90.		Rossini - La Cenerentola Manufacturer: Decca Starring: Cecilia Bartoli, Enzo Dara, Raúl Giménez, Alessandro Corbelli, Michele Pertusi Directed By: Christoph Eschenbach, Fabio Sparvoli	List Price: $29.98 Our Price: $17.99 You Save: $ 11.99 (40%) Prices subject to change
Summary: The production can make or break an opera... Content: While this is a delightful opera, I felt that the production was lacking in many ways. For one thing, Cecilia Bartoli does not look at all as Cinderella should. Mostly because she is obviously overweight, it's hard to see why the prince is SO captivated by ... → Click here to read more reviews.
