| 1. |  | Gaetano Donizetti - La Fille du regiment / Dessay, Florez, Palmer, Corbelli, French, Campanella, Pelly (Royal Opera House 2007) from Virgin Classics Price: $22.49 Customer Review:  I saw a tape of another production of "Daughter of the Regiment" and it was fantastic. The DVD I received from Amamzon was different, although the cast was the same. The quality of the film was poor, the lighting was bad, and there was a different conductor. All in all, it did not have the same... |

| 2. | ![Rossini: Il Barbiere Di Siviglia [Blu-ray]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/4151WdT7QWL._SL160_.jpg) | Rossini: Il Barbiere Di Siviglia [Blu-ray] from Decca Price: $24.99 Customer Review:  Amazon's current listing of the aspect ratio as 1.33:1 is INCORRECT. Like all Blu-Ray productions (that aren't of classic films) Decca's new opera productions on Blu-Ray are 16:9 (or 1.85:1) and anamorphic (according to Ken of the Decca Music Group. |

| 3. |  | Rossini - Il Barbiere Di Siviglia (The Barber of Seville) from Decca Price: $27.97 Customer Review: A very imaginative version of the opera. It is well done and the contrast between the black and white scenes and the use of color towards the end were remarkable. It holds the viewers attention with singers who can also act. I viewed it with my 11 year old granddaughter and she was never bored and... |

| 4. |  | Donizetti - Don Pasquale from Decca Price: $19.97 Customer Review:  What a shame that the only existing DVD of Juan Diego Florez in one of his signature roles is in this wrong-headed "Don Pasquale." Wrong-headed because once again we have an opera director for whom restraint seems to be a four-letter word. Yes, this is opera buffa, but as anyone who has seen a... |

| 5. |  | Donizetti - La Fille du Régiment from Decca Price: $19.97 Customer Review: Juan Diego Florez is reason enough to give this recording a 5 star rating! However, the entire production is a major delight and one you will want to hear over and over again. And then I keep recalling "Mes Amis"--vocal pyrotechnics of the highest order...Hmmmm--I think I will go now to play it yet... |

| 6. |  | Verdi - Falstaff / Muti, Maestri, Frittoli, Florez, Frontali, Antonacci, Busseto Teatro Verdi from Euroarts Price: $22.49 Customer Review: Famous Verdi`s operatic last words: "Tutto nel mondo e burla, l`uomo e nato burlone burlon" would translate in something like "Everything in this world is a tease. Human beings were born teasers". Everytime I listen at this opera I get the strange feeling that indeed, old Verdi has been teasing us... |
