June Anderson is an outstanding Elena (the Lady of the Lake) in the 1992 production of the melodrama based on Sir Walter Scott's poem. Press Reviews\n\"With lavish sets by Maurizio Balo, evocative and realistic, it establishes the period atmosphere well; but it is Muti's evident enthusiasm for the piece in his taut and exciting conducting that above all brings out the drama of conflict in 16th-century Scotland, with the melancholy Elena, the heroine, caught between rival forces.\" (The Penguin Guide)\n\n\"This DVD gives a rare opportunity to experience a work of musical individuality and interest in a well-sung and conducted performance. It is mature Rossini at his best and most demanding of participants. I welcome its availability and recommend it to other enthusiasts of Rossini's opera seria that are, through their musical quality and dramatic potential, slowly gaining a foothold in the repertoire. \" (Musicweb International) Cast\nRockwell Blake (Giacomo V, Re di Scozia)\nGiorgio Surjan (Douglas d'Angus)\nChris Merritt (Rodrigo di Dhu)\nJune Anderson (Elena)\nOrchestra \u0026amp; Chorus of La Scala; Riccardo Muti\n\nProduction\nCompany: Teatro alla Scala\n\nDisc Information\nCatalogue Number: OALS3009D\nDate of Performance: 1992\nRunning Time: 167 minutes\nSound: Dolby Stereo\nAspect Ratio: 4:3\nSubtitles: EN\nLabel: Opus Arte\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00066K2QU\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00066K2QU.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eBinding: DVD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
