Amahl and the Night Visitors- DVD of the 1955 telecast
I love this opera and I want to use it for my English classes here in South Korea. I ordered the DVD of the historic 1955 telecast. Of course, I knew it was B & W. What I didn't know was the sound wasn't clear and many of the lyrics indistinguishable. Sometimes the music was too loud. The limitations of the stage, after viewing so many natural settings on TV of the past 60+ made many things stilted. I suppose that I should have expected these "problems". Nevertheless, I suggest that you re-master this production and give it the visual and audio clarity it deserves.Thank you!
