4.0 out of 5 stars Great Video!
I very much enjoyed this video, which also features Maria Chiara and Nicola Martinucci. Elena Obraztsova is just a bit past her prime in this video (which was recorded in 1988), but her performance is thrilling all the same.

This video brings some of the most beautiful opera voices of all time. Everyone in the cast is just superb!! The problem is the video itself. Some of the scenes are set in such darkness that you can not see a thing! Images are too dark throughout the whole video. The other problem is the production. It has no charm. I would only recommend this video to the very pro-Aida fan. Even so, think twice before you spend your money on this video. The San Francisco production as well as the Metropolitan production may not bring such good voices, but you can at least see the singers.
