James Levine conducts Renata Scotto and Placido Domingo in the Metropolitan Opera's 1980 production of Puccini's early masterpiece, a performance of 'fluid movement, eye-catching invention, sex appear and above all, a sense of humor.' Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to see Renata Scotto live in the theatre, but I am told that she is an excellent singing actress. Witness that for yourself in this magnificent production of one of my favourite Puccini operas. When Scotto is on stage you can't take your eyes off her, and watch her face at the end of Act III as DeGrieux pleads with the Captain to let him join her on board ship - what an amazing actress she is.

She makes you laugh, she makes you cry - what more can you ask for? There is a chemistry between her and Domingo that inspires him to give one of the greatest perfomances I have ever seen from him (and yes I was at his Covent Garden Otello in front of the late Princess of Wales). The other principals are excellent, but this is an opera about two people, and they carry it off to perfection. The production is near perfect and the Met Orchestra give a faultless perfomance. I urge you to buy this DVD at once - you will see and hear no better.

Manon Lescaut is an opera in four acts by Giacomo Puccini. The story is based on the 1731 novel L’histoire du chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut by the Abbé Prévost.

The libretto is in Italian, and was cobbled together by five librettists whom Puccini employed: Ruggero Leoncavallo, Marco Praga, Giuseppe Giacosa, Domenico Oliva and Luigi Illica. The publisher, Giulio Ricordi, and the composer himself also contributed to the libretto. So confused was the authorship of the libretto that no one was credited on the title page of the original score. However, it was Illica and Giacosa who completed the libretto and went on to contribute the libretti to Puccini's next three – and most successful – works, La Boheme, Tosca and Madama Butterfly.[1]

Puccini took some musical elements in Manon Lescaut from earlier works he had written. For example, the madrigal Sulla vetta tu del monte from Act II echoes the Agnus Dei from his 1880 Messa a quattro voci. Other elements of Manon Lescaut come from his compositions for strings: the quartet Crisantemi (January 1890), three Menuets (probably 1884)[2] and a Scherzo (1883?). The love theme comes from the aria Mentia l'avviso (1883).
