In my September issue of DIAPASON they mention a Traviata which is now
available on DVD:  La Traviata, with Edita Gruberova, Neil Shicoff and
Giorgio Zancanaro.  Choeur et Orchestre de La Fenice, Carlo Rizzi
(conductor).  Warner Music Vision 4509-92409-2.  Not very recommendable,
IMO.  I would wait for the DECCA film (Angela Gheorghiu, Frank Lopardo
and Leo Nucci, Sir Georg Solti conducting the Orchestra of The Royal Opera
House), despite the fact that she doesn't sing the top note at the end of
"Sempre libera...".
