Paperback, 752 Pages, Published 2002 by Rough Guides
ISBN-13: 978-1-85828-749-2, ISBN: 1-85828-749-9

"INTRODUCTION The combination of music and drama is a thrillingly potent mix, but opera remains off-putting for too many people.

"Taped in the studio after a 1953 La Scala production in which Franco Zeffirelli made his operatic directing debut, this performance glows with confidence and good humour.

The casting is a model of its kind, with Graziella Sciutti a spirited Elvira and Giulietta Simionato a graceful and deliciously sly Isabella. Cesare Valletti's Lindoro ..."
