Description:

Teresa Zylis-Gara offers a radiant and ethereal Liù, her phrasing imbued with tenderness and quiet strength. She brings a haunting fragility to the role that leaves a lasting impression.

Hanna Janku, though on the slenderer side vocally for Turandot, proves more than up to the challenge. She sings with assurance and allure, never overwhelmed by the role’s formidable demands.

Zubin Mehta leads a superb performance from the forces of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, shaping Puccini’s score with clarity, drive, and dramatic sweep.

The sound lacks dynamic range.
