Verdi: Simon Boccanegra (complete opera recorded in 2010)

"(Domingo's) portrayal is touching and sounds beautiful, particularly in the last act; in its own way, it is yet another triumph for him in what is a very long career of triumphs. James Levine obviously loves this score, and he builds the opera to its tragic climax with the orchestra and chorus playing and singing gloriously. Fans of Domingo will need this." (ClassicsToday)
