Sorry, this should have been before the quartet; anyway, even though working with murky lighting which does no one in this performance any favors, Roberto Alagna shines as il Duca di Mantua.The timbre of his voice has the singular brilliance of his youth. Here he sings of man's eternal
frustration - "what do women want?"
