All in all, this was an unforgettable night with riveting performances. It is a shame that there will not be an HD recording for Radvanovsky's interpretation as it is sure to be legendary in years to come. With such a triumph as Anna, it is hard not to look forward to "Maria Stuarda" and "Roberto Devereux," two works that include some of Donizetti's most irresistible and mature music.
On Sept. 26 the Metropolitan Opera will revive Donizetti's "Anna Bolena" with Sondra Radvanovsky in the leading role and Elina Garanca as Giovanna Seymour.
