STIFFELIO is not one of Verdi's better known operas, but the Met Opera has[for the first time since 1998] revived it in a superb production that should make it better known.
It deals with seduction, lust, and forgivness and i.s blessed by some incredibly beautiful and romantic music. It needs a conductor who understands Verdi's concept and it has the perfect man in Placido Domingo who is as expert in the pit as he is onstage.
Expertly staged and designed, this STIFFELIO is a gem, and it's good to have it back.
