This is a noteworthy addition to any collector's library. The singing is exemplary and production eye-popping. As far as Pavarotti's ignoring the indicated triple pianos at the end of "Celeste Aida," what tenor, inicluding Caruso, hasn't made this a "show piece" singing full volume? It's now expected, and audiences feel cheated. So it's become a moot point (a la Adrian Edward's Amazon.com editorial). Margaret Price's is outstanding, while Simon Estes is powerful, singing pretty much at top volume throughout. The triumphal scene is spectacular, and tomb finale emotionally moving. This is a hard piece to photograph, and the camera work does well enough. All in all, a fine collector's item.
