"Don't buy this one. It has been rereleased in Europe by Sony at half the price."
A puzzle

"As someone who finds Muti's tyrannical insistence on singers NEVER deviating from the written note (even in the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini) abhorrent and incomprehensible, I am completely at a loss as to how Fabbricini was allowed to cap 'Sempre libera' with the traditional high E flat - a pretty good one, too. If she was permitted that note, why wasn't Alagna allowed a high C at the conclusion of 'O mio rimorso'? Can anybody explain??? Apart from this puzzlement, the performance is quite involving, though my favourites are Sutherland & Pavarotti, Cotrubas & Domingo, and Sills & Gedda (all, coincidentally, of whom sing the unwritten E flat and top C respectively). And if you're into high note interpolations, get the peformance on Naxos with Mercedes Capsir, or an early live one with Callas, where both sopranos end the second act with another high E flat!"
Wrong cover

"The misleading customer image is that of the 2003 reissue (slime line and without booklet), not the original 1993 jewel-box release, which contains the libretto, and whose cover features captions from the Scala production. This error is evident from: the issue date (1993), pre-2003 customer reviews (from 1999 onwards), the price (the re-release version costs around 16, not 33, bucks), as well as the Marketplace sellers' references to 'box', 'jewel case', and 'booklet'."
