Turandot, Almost Perfect
PostedNovember 8, 2009
Mugsia
from Alexandria, VA
The "Turandot" shown yesterday from the Met would have been perfect except for the technical difficulties, some of which are recent additions to our Met HD experience and one of which is an old annoyance. We hope the Met is working with the HD provider to eliminate the breaks in sound and picture, many of which came during critical scenes (e.g., when Calaf was answering Turandot's riddles). The audience seemed disgusted with these frequent interruptions. If they continue for future performances, I will certainly discontinue attending.
The second issue is the poor lighting often exhibited in the "darker" scenes, such as when the chorus was singing at the beginning yesterday. This is an old problem with the HD broadcast.

Yes, I recommend this movie.
