Celebrating his Silver Jubilee anniversary and the 50th anniversary of the place where he performed--the Royal Opera House Covent Garden--opera legend Placido Domingo is joined by stellar luminaries including Dwayne Croft, Angela Gheroghiu, Leontina Vaduva, and Roberto Alagna in this performance of highlights from Faust, Carmen, Don Giovanni, and other pieces. The film--which aired on PBS--is exquisite, with pristine video, crystal-clear sound, and a very wide range of notes (basso profundo to high soprano). In fact, the only real drawback here is that it is--after all--opera. Sure to be a very popular addition, this is highly recommended. Aud: P. (R. Pitman)
