“Anna Moffo makes a most beautiful Violetta in a performance that is never less than sympathetic … her unaffected manner and and care for phrasing and tonal nuances make for a performance to match amost any in the catalogue at whatever price. Richard Tucker makes for a strong but not coarse Alfred … the casting is more consistent than most versions.” (Penguin Guide).
“the intelligence of the performance very pleasing. She can really ‘ask a question’ in singing, can differentiate clearly between remorse and gratitude. The great duo scene with Germont is very delicately done. I have pleasure and growing admiration in many details in the performance (including) the dignity and resignation in the beautiful Addio del passato (lovely phrasing) in replay after replay. Robert Merrill puts a lovely baritone to the service of (the father). This is a sound I like to listen to” (Gramophone)
