Beoordeeld met een dubbele 10 op Classics Today (volg de link voor de complete tekst). "The hit of the 2005 Salzburg Festival, is the most moving performance of the opera I've ever come across", schrijft Robert Levine, "the setting and direction are not traditional--Willi Decker's staging takes as its metaphor time and its passing, with death looming about, literally. (...) The sense of fun and adventure and creating something special is palpable. Even traditionalists will love this performance." Maar Gramophone-recensent Alan Blyth moet niets hebben van de enscenering: "A hard-boiled, ridiculously over-disciplined Konzept by Willy Decker, all too typical of German direction today.". Hij is evenwel vol lof over vooral Netrebko: "Her voice fills the Grosses Festspielhaus with rich-hued, expressive sound."
Angela Gheorghiu and Ramon Vargas star in this ballet performance of Verdi's great classic opera. Performed at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, Italy in 2007; directed by Lilana Cavai with conductor Lorin Maazel. Although in some respects Gheorghius version with Solti is preferable, this is yet an other example of her wonderful and very complete interpretation of Violetta. Vargas is a pleasure to listen to. The picture quality is amazing. (Amazon)
