Norah Amsellem as Violetta leads a cast of outstanding talent in Pier Luigi Pizzi’s beautiful production filmed with High Definition cameras and recorded in multi-track surround sound. Jesus Lopez Cobos conducts the Chorus and Orchestra of the Teatro Real (Madrid Symphony Orchestra and Chorus) in an acclaimed reading of one of Verdi’s greatest works.

‘Norah Amsellem’s Violetta flourishes - vocally and dramatically, nothing is a challenge to her… Thanks to Pizzi’s intelligence, every detail in the action works in this production... Jesus Lopez Cobos’ maturity is astonishing... his perfect conducting looks for emotion and finds it... This production is only waiting for a DVD to make history.’ Le Monde de la Musique

‘A triumphant success… Norah Amsellem is an absolutely exceptional Violetta, a complete and fascinating artist.’ L’ Opera
