Movie Reviews of Puccini - Turandot / Franco Zeffirelli - Marton, Domingo, Mitchell, Plishka, Cuenod - James Levine, MET (1988)

Movie Review: Magnificent in all aspects
Summary: 5 Stars

Turandot is the one Puccini Opera that lends itself to the most opulent of settings. Franco Zefferelli is one of the few producer/directors who could fill the expanse of the Met stage with jewels in a setting. Domingo is at the height of his career and Marton is perfect as the icy princess. Kudos especially to Leona Mitchell as Liu and Paul Plishka as Calaf's father, Timur. Incidentally, there are the best Ping, Pang and Pong I've ever heard or seen. Grab your copy before it disappears from any profferings or gets a price like Julia Migenes' "Carmen" of $1,500.00. This production is a must-have for any listener of opera.
