Both have Italian subtitles. The new version was filmed at the Arena of Verona and is spectacular. But I prefer the older version: Eva Marton is really the ice-cold princess while Maria Guleghina looks not just like an old maid, but also like an old woman (Blu-ray shows a lot that might better remain unseen). Placido Domingo is a better actor, sure of himself as a man. Leona Mitchell is the better Liu, ready to die for her love, and her death is far more moving that that of Tamar Iveri.There are two awkward moments in the Verona production. The first one after Nessun Dorma: first the orchestra stops, then the public understands that they are supposed to applaud wildly, and they do; this seems pre-arranged to enable the tenor to get his fill of applause. The aria is then repeated. The second awkward moment is when Calaf kisses Turandot. He is a couple of inches shorter than she is, and he has to stand one step higher; in a position like that, you cannot expect much passion.All the same, I am glad that I bought this Blu-Ray disc; the stage here is wider than at the Met, and it is really spectacular! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Opera Reviews *by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2012* I purchased this because I have bought other operas done in the same venue. The expansive setting was a wonder to behold, especially when the royal palace appears. Unbelievable gold and lighting of that set. So expansive. I have no arguments against any of the singing. I was only too happy let the prince answer the three questions. If I had to do so, I would have lost my head.When I purchase an opera, I look for the staging, sets, and the camera work as well as the singing/orchestra. This met all those criteria. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Verona Turandot *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2014* The setting, in the Arena di Verona, was spectacular, but the singing was not. It was good, but far from outstanding. The late Salvatore Licitra sang an encore of "Nessun Dorma" after a workmanlike rendition the first time through. It appeared to have been planned, as he and the conductor nodded agreement shortly into the ovation. The other principals were passable, Ping, Pang, and Pong barely so, and staging of the principals and chorus was static --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/22534989-turandot-blu-ray](https://www.desertcart.be/products/22534989-turandot-blu-ray) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
