DVD Description:
Sir Charles Mackerras teases the romantic beauty from
Gounod’s score, which has been much admired and
performed since its first performance, at the Théâtre
Lyrique, Paris, in 1867. In this 1994 recording, the youthful
Roberto Alagna as Roméo, and Leontina Vaduva as the
unattainable Juliette, lead an excellent cast in a touching
portrayal of this story of impossible love, based on the play
by William Shakespeare.
