La Traviata - the ultimate opera of love and loss - is a great favourite of opera-goers. To coincide with Opera Australia's Traviata production in the spectacular setting of "Opera on the Harbour", Eloquence releases Joan Sutherland's first recording of La Traviata, complete on 2 CDs. It is for many her greatest recorded portrayal of the doomed heroine Violetta. Her Alfredo is the 'simply supreme' Carlo Bergonzi and Sir John Pritchard conducts a 'most persuasive, well-balanced and well-timed account' of this magnificent opera.
