This DVD is based on the I Puritani revival in January 2007; Anna Netrebko’s partners are the young American tenor Eric Cutler in the role of Arturo, the fine young Canadian bass-baritone John Relyea and the Italian baritone Franco Vassallo as Riccardo

The world’s favourite prima donna Anna Netrebko had a tremendous success with her first Elvira at the MET

The performance was transmitted live in high definition to movie theatres in the US, Canada and Europe, and broadcasted live on Metropolitan Opera Radio, on Sirius Satellite radio channel 85

Bellini’s “bel canto” opera – his last (first performed in 1835) – is enchantingly crazy in plot, superb in musical dramaturgy, and one of the marvels of 19th-century musical theatre
