Reviews
It is the conducting of Antonio Pappano and the Isolde of Nina
Stemme that truly put this in the highest league. Stemme is everything
an Isolde needs to be: singing with radiant grandeur, she is rare in being
able to sound sensuous even on the high notes [...] her Liebestod is notable
for its beauty; her partnership with Domingo makes for a thrilling love
duet.
