Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - the real deal
For my money this is the finest filmed Turandot available and easily one of, if not the, best singing performances Eva Marton ever committed, in or out of this role. Hal Prince and maestro Maazel are on form in Vienna; a beautifully fluid stasis to the stage design lets the music reign, and Marton and Carerras make the most of it. Marton's singing in the Riddle scene is just hair-raising! Her first "Straniero!..." is like hearing God! I keenly prefer this Turandot to the 1987 Met film. Marton may ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Best Ping, Pang and Pong staging - ever!
I have been waiting for this particular production to go to DVD for 25 years! I have the production on VHS, but the video quality is so improved now that it is digital.

Carerras (pre-cancer)and Marton and the rest of the cast are wonderful; the sets are astonishingly fabulous; BUT the singing and, in particular, the staging of Ping, Pang and Pong in Act II is beyond belief in its originality and sheer cleverness.

I can not recommend this production enough. To those that have ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Will bring you to tears
Superb production. Almost as good as being at the Met, which I do often when in season.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A valuable Turandot!
This Turandot contrasts wonderfully with the other top Turandot on the market: the 1987 Zeffirelli production at the MET. It is so different in almost every way--musically, the production, singers etc. However, I would have to say that the MET production is probably a better choice for one's very first Turandot, though I would not want to be without this one. Compared to Zeffirelli's production, Prince's staging is seemingly minimalist, and the drama comes through in a much more uncluttered way. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For the Fans
This Harold Prince production of Turandot, recorded in 1983 from the Vienna State Opera, is a welcome addition to the DVD catalogue. With little already available on DVD featuring the three protagonists (Marton, Ricciarelli and Carreras), fans will not be disappointed. This performance marked Eva Marton's debut as Turandot and she is secure vocally, soaring over the orchestra and chorus when required, making it an easy sing, compared with other sopranos essaying the role. I prefer her MET Opera performance ... Read More

The 1,968-passenger vessel will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12 passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2, the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining. There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular panoramic views.

Queen Victoria, Cunard Cruise Line

Queen Victoria cruises will offer a wide range of accommodations, large standard outside cabins (170 square feet) and a high percentage of balcony cabins (67%), thereby bringing new levels of luxury and choice to passengers preferring to depart from a European port.  Cruise Queen Victoria!   Low Priced Web Site


The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and she will have a British Captain and Officers.   In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.

Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000 vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery  in 2006.   Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria.  The lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.

No cruise schedules have yet been announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008.
