La Contessa Almaviva : Cheryl Studer
Susanna : Marie McLaughlin
Theater an der Wien, 1991
Orchester der Wiener Staatsoper, Claudio Abbado
From the now classic (and tasteful) Jonathan Miller production, filmed during its world premiere run in Vienna. When the production travelled to the Metropolitan Opera several years later you'd never know, from the hyper publicity, that it had been seen and heard elsewhere first and with a vastly superior team, too.
