In March 2006 in Munich, four artists were brought together thanks to a special constellation in two performances of the timelessly heart-moving opera: Under the direction of Zubin Mehta, Anja Harteros filled in as Violetta Valéry, and Piotr Beczala as Alfredo. Along with them, Paolo Gavanelli, very much loved by the Munich audience, was cast as Giorgio Germont.
A critic for the Münchner Merkur marveling described in his review from March 8th, 2006: "That night, Harteros sang the part of the consumptive courtesan for the first time at the Munich National Theatre, and did it in such a touching and charming way that could have melted the snow in front of the doors. (…) On the scale of nuances, she finds the right one for every presenting moment. She suffers velvety aspirating, loves with a sentimental and warm timbre, and amazes, when the neurotic side of the character breaks through, almost screaming. Absolutely beautiful!"
This live recording captures these moments of enchantment and devotion for Verdi’s masterpiece. By listening to it, it becomes perfectly clear, why love as "the pulse of the universe" can actually only unfold its entire power in song.
