Critical acclaim for Franco Zeffirelli's spectacular met Boheme: "One of the grandest, most richly textured productions of an opera to be seen anywhere," wrote the Christian Science Monitor, while New York magazine lauded" Teresa Stratas's potency as a dramatic presence and the sensitively refined artistry of her vocal performance... a true musician as well as an astute operatic actress. With her fragile frame, cameo face and exquisitely modulated soprano, she makes an ideal Mimi."
