Notes & Reviews:

"...A notably stellar cast depicts the ghastly gaggle of Donati releations, brilliantly dominated by Felicity Palmer's terrifying Zita, pink-rinsed and stiletto-voiced... But the show like everything else- is stolen by Corbelli's Gianni Schicchi, rich-voiced and radiating proletarian cunning, with the face of a demonic Chico Marx. Jurowski conducts vibrantly rather than wallowing in Puccinian lushness, even for Matthews' unfeignedly plaintive 'O mio Babbino caro'..." ***** -BBC Music Magazine
