She's got a lovely velvety voice.Unfortunately in something like that even a good director can do very little, basically just oscillating between long shots and closeups, and his decision to stay mostly with close ups made it hard to watch.
But the music is of course your typical Verdi - rich in melodies, great arias and mesmerising chorus parts, so overall it is easy to recommend to anyone who loves opera, especially given the obscure status of this work.
