RECORDING INFORMATION
The long-awaited release on DVD Video of the classic 1994 production from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, featuring Angela Gheorghiu's stunning debut as Violetta. It was this performance that, overnight, turned the Romanian soprano into an international sensation. The occasion also marked Sir Georg Solti's first performances of Verdi's ever-popular tragedy. With Richard Eyre's dramatic staging and Bob Crowley's elegant, strikingly lit designs, this will be the definitive Traviata on DVD Video.

The disc includes optional subtitles in English, French, German and Chinese, and a superb new 5.1 surround soundtrack, as well as LPCM digital stereo.
