84 editions published between 1977 and 2018 in 6 languages and held by 1,455 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
For Verdi fans, this performance of his dark, magnificent opera is something of a touchstone. James Levine knows just how to bring all the elements in this sprawling canvas together in one gripping picture. The legendary Leontyne Price is spectacular as Leonora, desperately in love with Alvaro (Plácido Domingo at his most incandescent), even after fate wrenches them apart. Cornell MacNeil is Don Carlo, Leonora's vengeful brother, and Martti Talvela is the compassionate Padre Guardiano

Les contes d'Hoffmann by
Jacques Offenbach(
)
99 editions published between 1972 and 2010 in 6 languages and held by 1,447 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Plácido Domingo has left his indelible stamp on scores of roles during his remarkable career--but his performance of the romantic poet Hoffmann is one of his greatest achievements. It's a fiendishly daunting role--high, heroic, and long. But Domingo's honeyed, sumptuous tenor makes it sound easy. Carol Vaness portrays all four of the women who break Hoffmann's heart, and Alan Held is his eternal nemesis. James Levine underscores Offenbach's marvelous combination of Gallic sparkle and dark German romanticism

Un ballo in maschera by
Giuseppe Verdi(
)
46 editions published between 1970 and 2006 in 5 languages and held by 1,361 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This performance features the legendary African-American contralto Marian Anderson in her history-making Met debut role of Ulrica, the fortune-teller. At first her predictions are all good news. But who would believe the best friend of the king would actually murder him? Absurd. That's what the king (Jan Peerce) thinks. But he loves Amelia (Zinka Milanov), the wife of his friend Renato (Robert Merrill). And when Renato discovers them together, he joins the plot against the king. This is Verdian passion at its best

78 editions published between 1978 and 2011 in 8 languages and held by 1,235 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Plácido Domingo (Samson) and Denyce Graves (Dalila) give a searing demonstration of "onstage chemistry." Certainly no one could possibly doubt that this Samson and Dalila were fated to be together, regardless of all the obstacles put in their way. Graves's sultry, come-hither voice perfectly complements Domingo's honeyed tenor. With Sergei Leiferkus's authoritative High Priest

75 editions published between 1979 and 2016 in 7 languages and held by 1,217 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Every ounce of searing emotion that Verdi lavished on his opera about love, betrayal, and its bitter consequences is brilliantly realized by James Levine's passionate conducting and his stellar cast. Plácido Domingo is at his most golden and ardent as Rodolfo, the son of Count Walter (Bonaldo Giaiotti), in love with the poor Luisa Miller (Renata Scotto). The count's henchman, Wurm (James Morris), blackmails and lies to prevent the marriage, but even Luisa's beloved father (Sherrill Milnes in a stunning performance) can't prevent the ultimate tragedy
